Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 128

"What's this junk? Do I look like a garbage disposal?"

Despite grumbling discontentedly, Gino obediently slipped the bead bracelet onto his left wrist.

It fit perfectly, almost as if it was custom-made for him.

He admired it momentarily, then extended his hand toward the school doctor.

"Does it look good?" he inquired.

The school doctor hesitated before replying, "It's quite nice."

The school doctor was surprised by his sudden change of attitude. Wasn't he just disdainful of it a moment ago?

"Of course. It's a gift from my sister," Gino boasted, retracting his hand and admiring the bracelet again.

He couldn't help but find it pleasing to the eye.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door of the school clinic, and Gideon hurried in.

"May I ask who you are?" the school doctor inquired as she stepped out.

"I'm Gino's brother. What's going on?"

Gideon looked around and spotted Gino sitting on the stretcher, examining his wrist.

"Gideon? Why are you here? Where's Dad?"

Gino was surprised to see him.

"He was caught in an accident on the way here. The road is blocked. He called me, and I happened to be nearby. What happened?"

Gideon approached, pinching Gino's chin and inspecting his face.

He felt that something was off about Gino's face.

Annoyed, Gino swatted away his hand.

"It's fine, Hera has taken care of it."

"Well, you see..."

The school doctor blushed slightly, marveling at the genetic fortune of the Everett family.

She briefly recounted the recent events.

Gideon listened, feeling somewhat surprised and pleased.

First, there was Bernard and Aaron, and now Andrew stepped in to help. Hera was indeed not as simple as everyone perceived her to be.

"I can see you're jealous. It's a gift from my sister, something you don't have."

Upon hearing this, Gideon glanced at the bead bracelet again.

"Childish. Who cares about a bead bracelet?"

With that, he turned around, opened WhatsApp, and sent a message to Hera.

…

Hera lounged on the sofa in the Dean's office, legs crossed lazily. She leaned back against the sofa, idly playing with her phone.

Suddenly, a message popped up on WhatsApp.

It was a message from Gideon, along with a sad face emoji.

"Where's my present?" he asked.

Confused about what he meant, Hera replied with a question mark.

"You gave Gino a present. What about me?" came his reply.

Hera was puzzled. Then, it suddenly dawned on her that she had casually given Gino the bead bracelet when leaving the school clinic.
