Hera watched Everly run outside. Although Hera seemed calm and collected on the surface, she was actually terribly disappointed.
In the afternoon, she had already seen the two formulas for Emily's medicine in the drawers. Besides, the western wing also had a
surveillance camera pointing toward the northern wing. The camera captured the scene of Isla handing the formula to Everly.
Hera interrogated Everly in front of everyone so that she could give her a chance. If Everly had admitted to her mistake in front of
everyone and promised to be careful in the future without making the smistake again, the matter would have been over. But
Everly chose to lie.
That made Hera somewhat disappointed and distressed. After all, she had known Everly for more than ten years.
To her, Everly might be rather cunning sometimes, but at least she was a reliable person. Now, it seemed like Hera had been wrong
about her.
"Everly..." Wayne wanted to hold her back but was unable to do so. Worried, he said to Hera, "Hera, I'll go and check on her."
With that, he ran after Everly.
Isla was furious upon seeing that. After all, she was the one who was being accused, but Everly made it sound as if Isla had bullied
her.
"Hera, | really passed her the formula. You have to believe me," she explained anxiously.
"I know," Hera answered.
Hearing that made Isla burst into happy tears. "Thank you for believing in me. I'll definitely work hard and repay you for what
you've done."
Isla had assumed that Hera would not believe her. She even prepared herself for the worst, thinking she would be fired. She never

"As | said before hiring all of you—work hard, and I'll give you whatever you deserve, whether it's treating you well or teaching you
well. If you can't do it, please leave," Hera remarked.
Isla nodded obediently. "Yes, | understand. I'll definitely work hard."

Hera nodded in relief and got up. "It's getting late. Everyone should go back and get srest."
"Alright. You should rest early as well."
Not long after Isla and Sarah had left, Bernard returned to see Hera busy herself in the northern wing. Upon reaching there, he saw
her tidying up the medicinal ingredients in the cupboard.
Bernard stepped forward and hugged Hera from behind. "Are you tired? Why don't you rest first and finish tidying up tomorrow?"

Bernard found Hera to be acting slightly strange today. In the past, he would have gotten a stern warning for interrupting her work.
But now, she seemed rather clingy.
"What's up?" he asked while holding her in his arms.
Hera briefly gave him a run down of what happened today. Upon hearing that Everly eventually ran away, Bernard happily said,

Hera was speechless.
The next day, it wasn't a surprise to Hera that Everly did note to work.
Catherine explained that Everly did not return hthe whole night. Although Wayne had chased after her last night, he wasn't
able to find her.

his calls. Fipatly, Wayne received a

Wayne was slightly angry. He wondered how Everly could behave this way. She did not admit that it was her fault and went into
hiding. He couldn't even find her.
Thus, he did not go looking for her anymore. Wayne would wait for Everly to return and admit to her mistake once she was done
throwing a tantrum.
