Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 761

Joshua regretted asking the question, having immediately felt Bernard's sharp gaze on him. They had conducted the investigation to clear Lucius' name and ensure that the culprits would be punished.

Joshua slapped himself on the mouth for speaking without thinking ahead. "I'll ask them to handle the follow-up procedures. They'll definitely be severely punished."

At that moment, Hera's phone vibrated in her pocket. She took out her phone and noticed that it was an incoming call from Tyler.

Bernard peered at the screen, and a look of disgust crossed his face. Meanwhile, Hera took the call in front of him. "Hello?"

Bernard snatched the phone away from Hera and said, "Good job. I'll invest if the Presgrave family can continue developing the new chips."

Tyler was stunned, thinking he heard wrong. "Bernard?"
