Chapter 60


    “Hera knocked you out and sent you to Mr. Gagher’s bed?” James asked angrily.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    James suddenly realized something, and his anger rose. “Didn’t you say Hera would just be


    apanying him for drinks? How did it turn into something like sleeping with him!


    It was only then that Giselle realized she had identally Jet it slip.


    Originally, when she suggested to James that Hera apany Michael for drinks to secure the


    investment, she portrayed it as a purely innocent gesture. That was the only reason James agreed


    to it.


    It didn’t mean he was a good person,


    James just cared too much about his reputation. Even if he disliked Hera, he wouldn’t openly send


    her to someone else’s bed, inviting gossip.


    “It’s. Hera. She deliberately seduced Mr. Gagher, just like she flirted with the delinquents before. I


    went to stop her, but she outsmarted me,” Giselle exined hastily.


    James raised his hand and pped her


    Giselle was thrown against the car window by the force of the blow, and a handprint immediately


    appeared on her cheek.


    “Even if Hera is cunning, why would she suddenly target you for no reason? James gritted his


    teeth.


    “She_She_II._” Giselle was afraid that the more she exined, the closer he would get to the truth,


    so she stopped exining. Instead, she covered her face and cried.


    She had failed miserably and nearly implicated her own innocence. She caused a scene at the


    police station, embarrassing James in public. It was only natural that he vented his anger on her.


    He was already infuriated, and now her crying only made him more frustrated and confused


    He let out a low growl. “Enough! Stop crying I’ll have Johnny find someone to retract the news that


    was sent out. As a precaution, you’d better inform Zyler to prevent thepany’s final business


    from falling apart ”


    “Yes,” Giselle choked out the word.


    “But don’t think things are over just like this. Mr. Gagher’s investment fell through, and the


    company’s finances are tight, so I’ll have someone put the house in Westin on the market through


    an agency tomorrow.” James said


    The house in Westin was one of the dowries James had prepared for Giselle, with a market value


    of five million dors..


    Giselle felt a pang of heartache but dared not refuse. She was so angry that her nails dug into her


    flesh..


    In Presidential Suite 8888 on the top floor of the Imperial Hotel, a loud ssh was heard.


    Arge hand pulled Hera out of the bathtub.


    “Who let you in!” She shivered from the cold and didn’t know when Bemard had barged


    She didn’t want him to see her in such a miserable state.


    “If I hadn’te in, you would’ve drowned yourself!”


    Bernard looked at her, his gaze mixed with annoyance and concern.


    Her face was pale from the cold, her lips were devoid of color, and her long ck hair was clinging


    to her face, making her look even paler.


    Droplets of water from her hair flowed down her fair and delicate neck, soaking her light gray school


    uniform in the bathtub


    When she drank that ss of juice, she had already numbed her senses in advance.


    But she didn’t expect the effects of the drug to be even stronger than she had anticipated.


    Unfortunately, she happened to bump into Bernard when she escaped from the room.


    “Are you still feeling ufortable? Bernard asked.


    Herashook her head.


    He bent down and Fitted her out of the bathtub.


    Hera’s heart skipped a beat, and she remembered her mentor saying that men were always up to


    no good. She felt a little flustered
