Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 704

"Quickly come here, Johnson!" Aaron immediately called out into his walkie-talkie.

Johnson, who was following behind, hurried over to check on Hera's condition. He immediately performed emergency CPR before rushing her to the hospital's operating room.

After sending them off, Aaron walked toward the time bomb. He could still detect a strong burning smell although he was wearing a gas mask.

He noticed that all the wires of the bomb were still intact. However, the display casing had been severely burned, along with the server beside it.

Hera had forcibly used the server's electric current to cause the time bomb to short circuit, which destroyed its power source.

Her method of preventing the bomb from detonating was very aggressive and dangerous. Aaron had never seen anything like it. Hera was too reckless.

If the job was not done properly, it would've triggered the explosion right away. Hera's body would've been blown to bits.

Even though she was successful, the electric current caused by the short circuit was very dangerous. She could've ended up dead.

Aaron couldn't help but be impressed with her as he recalled her condition earlier. If she hadn't stopped the bomb from exploding, the entire building would have collapsed under the explosive power of this bomb. The lives of tens of thousands of guests and staff in the building would've been at risk.

He silently prayed that Hera would be safe.

The explosion at Linda's 50th birthday party made headlines around the world. This incident alone had caused Linda to single-handedly offend all the prestigious families across the country.

As soon as the stock market opened the next day, Killian Corporation's shares began to drop drastically. That continued for the next three days.

Chad suspended Rhett from his duties as the CEO of Killian Corporation due to the investigation. Linda was also fired from the company as she was being held in custody as a suspect. Even the financial officer, Frederick, had gone missing without a trace.

The entire Killian family was in chaos.

Three days later, Gino and Gideon stood outside the intensive care unit at Reinland Hospital.

"Killian Corporation's share price has hit an all-time low, so it's a good time to buy some shares. Gideon, do you want to buy some?" Gino swiped through the stock market details on his phone.
