Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 663

Ever since Bernard started dating Hera and experienced what it was like to have a home, he found it hard to adjust to those days when his life was all about work with no room for a relationship.

Nowadays, he was always in a hurry to finish work so that he could go back early and see Hera. Time seemed to fly by quickly whenever he was with her. Yet, time passed by unusually slowly whenever he didn't see her. That made him feel rather lonely.

If only Hera belonged to him exclusively and could forever stay by his side. Bernard wished he could hide her away so that no one could take her away from him.

Bernard's gaze turned conflicted while he got lost in thoughts. It was as if an idea was starting to form in his mind. By the time he came back to his senses, he realized that Douglas had taken a detour.

"Why didn't you take Redwood Road?"

Douglas uneasily cleared his throat. "There's traffic there."

He relaxed when Bernard said nothing. Douglas drove steadily and arrived at the courtyard house entrance at exactly 12:00 am.

Bernard got out of the car. After opening the back door, he realized the courtyard lights were on. Hera, who had been on his mind the whole time, stood in the center of the courtyard with a smile.

"Happy birthday, Bernard."

Bernard glanced at her. His emotions went through many ups and downs like a rollercoaster. He took wide strides toward Hera before holding her tightly in his arms. He wished he could merge their bodies together.

"So, you do remember. Did you purposely hide it from me?" Bernard pressed his forehead against Hera's.

"Just like how you surprised me the last time." Before Hera finished speaking, Bernard kissed her right away, their lips locked in a passionate dance.

Hera was almost running out of breath from the kiss, so she placed her hands on his chest and pushed him away. "I have a surprise for you."

Bernard pinched her nose. "You're really naughty, so I'm going to teach you a lesson tonight. You won't even be able to get out of bed for the next three days."
