Under the Heiress' Facade

"Who is she?"

"She came with Dr. Youngworth. She's been eating since she came. I wonder if she's looking for trouble now that she's full."

"What does this have to do with her?"

"Didn't you say that they're from Clearfog? They spoke perfect Terranish, though?"

"The point is, didn't you hear what the young lady said? Did Graden get the wrong person?"

"I don't think so. The award is for Dr. Shadow. Isn't that Ms. Chime?"

A heated discussion started among the guests.

Camille was surprised to see Hera, and ecstasy gave way to hatred.

How did Hera know Graden?

As Camille heard the ongoing discussion, something occurred to her. Color drained from her face. She wanted to take the award and finish the ceremony, but Graden withdrew his hands!

Camille had a bad feeling about this.

"You are..." Graden recognized Hera's voice. His baffled eyes alternated between Hera and Camille.

He sensed something wrong when he heard Camille's voice a moment ago. He had met Dr. Shadow a few times. Although she had always worn a red cloak and a golden mask, he could recognize her voice. His hearing skills made up for his face blindness.

He came here based on the address given by Dr. Shadow. The people here claimed that Camille was Dr. Shadow. In addition to that, she was wearing a red cloak! That was why he got the wrong person.

"I said that I'd be here, but ver said that I was the host of the banquet," Hera deliberately lowered her voice.

Hearing that tone and voice, Graden was certain that Hera was Dr. Shadow!

"I'm sorry, I got the wrong person. This award is not for you," he said to Camille.

Hearing that, her body went stiff.

The guests and the media were confused.

How could he got the wrong recipient for such an important award?

wasn't Camille?

That would mean...

Everyone's eyes landed on Hera as they shared the same notion-Camille wasn't the winner of the Elasker Medical Award but Hera!

The guests, who were filled with excitement to the brim a moment ago, were now bewildered.

Someone shouted, "The Astral Nova Auction has released an auction announcement about Dr. Shadow's special medication."

The guests came back to their senses and checked the news through their phones.

"That's right! It happened not long ago, when Ms. Chime announced the special medication."

"It happened at the same time? Are they referring to the same special medication?"

"I don't think so. The Astral Nova Auction only auctions rare collections. Mass-produced goods won't catch their eyes."

"The auction house will never make

a mistake in their evaluation. That means the special medication the

auction house is referring to isn't the by Ms. Chime!"

...

Hearing the discussions, Camille began to panic. She quickly gave the host a look.

The host was equally confused as well, but she calmed herself and reminded the crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, please remain calm."

She then turned to Hera. "Miss, it's not yet time for questions. Please return to your seat and refrain from disrupting the procedures."

Graden, who couldn't understand

Jadonish, requested an

interpretation from the ceremonial lady. He then waved his hand. "NO, no, no She mustn't leave. This award belongs to her. She's the real Dr. Shadow."

The host's eyes widened.
