Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 705

Gideon thought he heard Gino wrong. "How much?"

"One or two hundred million," Gino gave an estimated figure.

Gino noticed the look of disbelief on Gideon's face and exclaimed in disdain, "Don't you have that kind of money? That's impossible. You've been running your business for so many years. Yet you can't even come up with one or two hundred million?"

"No one is stupid enough to have a few hundred million dollars ready to use anytime. I only have five million."

Gideon didn't know what to say. He did have about 200 to 300 million worth of personal assets, but he wasn't that foolish to not make any investments. Why would he hold so much cash on hand and let it lose its value?

"Hera transferred 300 million to me the last time," Gino said sinisterly. "Once she's awake, I'm telling her that you called her stupid!"

Gideon cleared his throat. "I meant that others are foolish, but Hera is very wealthy!" He immediately changed his tune.

"Too late. I've already recorded what you said. Once Hera is awake, I'll play it for her!" Gino waved his hand. "I won't tell her anything if you give me five million dollars."

His words rendered Gideon speechless. He glanced through the glass window and suddenly remarked, "You can tell her anything as long as she wakes up."

After hearing that, Gino's threatening expression faltered instantly. He turned to lean against the glass window and peered at Hera with his lips tightly pressed together.

Gino had already bought all of Killian Corporation's shares, so why wasn't Hera waking up yet?

By the time Johnson arrived, he happened to see Gideon, Gino, and Lilith standing in one line, leaning against the glass window. The sight of them staring anxiously at Hera in the intensive care unit was somewhat amusing and disheartening.

"Mom, Gideon, I just saw Hera's finger move!" Gino suddenly shouted.

"I think I saw that too!" Lilith widened her eyes.

"I'll call for a doctor." As soon as Gideon turned, he saw Johnson. He quickly urged Johnson to hurry inside and check on Hera.

After putting on a surgical gown, Johnson frantically led a few doctors and nurses to enter the intensive care unit.
