Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 965

"Bernard is spending all his time with Hera and has no time to manage the company. That's why I'm asking you to go there," Anthony explained.

Frederick recalled reading the news of Bernard and Hera's marriage while on the way back from the airport. He couldn't help but feel disgusted toward the couple.

Bernard and Hera had grown up together since young but ended up marrying each other. That was far more disgusting than being gay. However, Frederick was still rather fearful.

Anthony noticed Frederick's hesitation, silence, and fearful expression. So, he continued, "Mr. Frederick, do you remember how they treated you back then? How did they handle Mr. Rhett and Ms. Linda? Ms. Linda was stoned to death after living a life of luxury. In the end, she died in humiliation. How could she be at peace?

"Also, there's Mr. Rhett and Mrs. Killian Senior. They're supposed to be enjoying retirement at their age, but they're now living in hell in prison. Are you happy with that?"

It wasn't that Frederick didn't remember any of that. These matters were buried in his heart, and he dared not to involve himself.

After all, he was truly terrified of Bernard. But since Anthony had brought up everything, the hatred within his heart seemed to spill out. Frederick's expression darkened as he balled his fists tightly.

When Anthony noticed Frederick's reaction, he hurriedly cast a meaningful glance at Lexie.

Lexie once worked closely with Ember and was her loyal maid. Ember was the reason why Lexie was able to act domineeringly at the Killian residence for a very long time while enjoying the prestige and glory.

However, ever since Ember was investigated for murder five years ago, Lexie's status at the Killian residence also fell to rock bottom.

In the past, even Linda had to show some respect to Lexie. The maids in the backyard always tried their best to flatter Lexie with the best food so that they could get on her good side.

Now, those maids had turned against her. Even the new hires were bold enough to bully her and leave the dirtiest and most exhausting chores to her.

The stark contrast from the past made Lexie feel very disheartened. After all, she was used to living off the bribes Ember had received over the years.

He nodded out of anger and agreed to the plan, "I'm in!"

Anthony and Lexie were joyful at Frederick's agreement, so they immediately arranged for a car to take him to the company. Based on both of their current capabilities, they couldn't fight against Bernard.

However, they could still show support for Frederick while getting close to Rhett, Linda, and Ember's supporters. That would give Frederick a chance to get back on his feet in the Killian family before they could ruin Bernard.

After all, that was how princes fought for the throne in the past.

Lexie and Anthony thought they had it all figured out, believing that they could return to their former glory with Frederick's help.

Before the car could leave the Killian residence and take them to Killian Corporation, however, a group of bodyguards dressed in black suddenly breached the grounds and intercepted them.
