"Let's go." Bernard extended his hand.

Hera glanced at his broad palm and asked, "Where to?" "To show you your gift," Bernard replied.

Hera raised an eyebrow. She was intrigued about a gift she had to see for herself.

"Go on. The sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back," Lilith said, handing Hera her coat.

Hera took Bernard's hand. Their fingers intertwined as they left under the watchful eyes of the Everetts.

A helicopter was already waiting for them in the yard. They boarded it, and the night sky exploded with fireworks again.

As the helicopter flew through the bursts of color, Hera leaned against the window. Her eyes sparkled as she watched the display up close.

"Do you like it?" Bernard asked softly in her ear.

Hera turned back to face him. The multicolored sparks reflected off his face, highlighting his chiseled features.

At that moment, her heart was on the verge of bursting. It pounded as loudly as the fireworks outside. Unable to resist, she leaned in and kissed him.

Bernard immediately raised his hand to hold her head in place as he deepened the kiss.

Outside the helicopter, the sky was a riot of colors. Meanwhile, they were wrapped in tender affection inside the vehicle.

Two hours later, the helicopter landed in an ancient courtyard house in Jedburgh.

Hera watched as the fireworks finally ceased.

"No more", she thought.

Fireworks were banned in Jedburgh. If the fireworks display continued, they would end up at the police station until dawn. "Close your eyes," Bernard instructed.

He took Hera's hand as he led her out of the helicopter. After closing her eyes, Hera felt Bernard letting go.

A moment later, Bernard's voice cagain, "Alright. Open them." Hera slowly opened her eyes to see Bernard handing her a lit sparkler. "This is the last one," he said.

It reminded her of when they were kids, and Bernard would give her sparklers.

"Thank you." Hera accepted the sparkler, and her face lit up with a captivating smile.

Bernard's eyes softened as he looked at her. He was reminded of the young girl with the radiant grin from his memories. It had been months since he'd seen her this happy.

He recalled when she used to be so cheerful. She wouldn't have changed so much if it weren't for Lucius and Daphne's incident.

"You look so stunning when you smile. You should smile more and not look gloomy all the time," Bernard said. Unable to resist, he reached out and pinched Hera's soft cheek.

Hera pushed his hand away.

"I don't make a living by smiling."

Bernard chuckled, grabbed her hand, and intertwined their fingers. "Csee your gift." With a flourish, he produced a set of keys.

"There's more?"

Hera was surprised. Wasn't the m two-hour fireworks display enough?

Bernard tossed the spent sparkler into the trash can by the door and gestured toward the red door's brass lock. "Open it and see." X Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming* these rich women will persue you.
