Chapter 353

Hera stared at the brass lock and found a key among the others on the ring. She couldn't help but wonder if Bernard had bought an entire courtyard house for her. The lock opened with a click. Bernard swung the door open wide and flicked on the lights, revealing a Victorian-carved wooden screen directly ahead. Stepping around the screen, Hera was surprised to see a renovated space for medicinal herb storage and an alchemy lab. Intrigued, she moved forward to check it out. The herb storage was neatly organized and stocked with various traditional medicinal herbs. Meanwhile, the alchemy lab boasted various furnaces, gold and silver acupuncture needles, and all necessary tools neatly arranged. Clearly, everything had been meticulously prepared for her. Previously, Hera had considered setting up an herb storage in her suburban villa but dismissed the idea due to its inconvenient location. Moreover, she had grown accustomed to the lab in Cavenridge and hadn't bothered with relocating.
