    Chapter 3411 He''s Been Waiting For You For Ages


    The security guard remainedpletely unfazed.


    This was because the vige chief was his uncle, and in their tight-knitmunity, they always stuck together and never favored outsiders.


    With directions from the people inside the ancestral hall, Hera found the vige chief.


    "You''re the vige chief, right?" Hera looked at the man in his fifties in front of her and spoke with an arrogant tone,pletely unbothered.


    "And you are?" The vige chief, seeing her attitude, was puzzled. He had no idea whether she was an investor or someone looking to discuss a major partnership to bring


    development to their quiet vige.


    "It doesn''t matter who I am. I see you have surveince here, and I need to review your footage," replied Hera.


    The vige chief was even more confused. "Are you a police officer?"


    "No." Hera frowned. She thought reviewing surveince footage was no big deal. Why was this vige chief being so difficult?


    The vige chief gave her a look as if she were a fool and turned back to continue drinking tea with his friends.


    Hera feltpletely ignored, and her anger red. She pointed at him and shouted, "Are you deaf? I want to review your surveince footage!"


    "Why would you need to review our footage if you''re not a police officer?" The vige chief was not ignorant of thew and was not intimidated by her demands.


    "You..." Hera''s eyes darted around. She had assumed that with enough forceful attitude, she could intimidate these rural folk intoplying, but they were not falling for it at all. An idea popped into her head.


    "I''ve lost something." Hera mmed her hand onto their table, causing some of the tea to spill.


    The vige chief clicked his tongue in annoyance.


    Those were premium ck tea, and spilling even a little made him wince in pain.


    "What did you lose?" The vige chief grabbed a couple of napkins and carefully wiped up the spill.


    "A ring. A ring worth hundreds of thousands. I''m sure I lost it here. I need to check the surveince footage to figure out what happened." Hera fabricated the story on the spot. A ring worth hundreds of thousands?


    The vige chief looked at her suspiciously, but as he looked at her appearance, it seemed usible. He took out his phone and said, "In that case, I''ll help you report it to the police. When they arrive, we can immediately review the footage."


    "Wait!" Hera did not n on involving the police.


    Once they arrived and saw the footage, they would realize she was making it up and might


    even charge her for filing a false report. "Just let me see the footage. If it''s not here, I won''t say anything."


    The vige chief, ever cautious, realized her sole purpose was to view the surveince. He shook his head and said, "There are procedures for essing the footage."


    "What procedures? Don''t you want to help? How about I give you some money? Would a thousand dors be enough?" Hera was already pulling out her phone to transfer the money.


    "Why do you need to see our footage?" The vige chief became wary.


    Hera''s lips twitched, and just as she was about to speak, she heard him add, "Could it be that you''re trying to scout the ce in advance to steal our things?"


    The vige chief''s suspicion grew. Their ancestral hall housed many valuable treasures left by the older generations.


    Hera was furious. "What could you possibly have here worth stealing? Ridiculous. Fine. If you won''t let me see it, then forget it."


    The vige chief could not be bothered to argue with her. He picked up the inte and spoke to the person on the other end, "Jimmy,e here for a minute."


    Hera was about to leave when she saw the security guard who had argued with her earlier walk in.


    When the security guard saw her, he immediately furrowed his brows and said, "Uncle, you''re not actually listening to her, are you? She didn''t want to pay earlier. I was just following the rules!"


    "No, no." The vige chief shook his head and spoke to him, "This person might be eyeing our ancestral hall''s treasures. Get her out of here."


    The security guard''s eyes narrowed with suspicion. "Yes, sir!"


    He then stepped in front of Hera with a menacing expression. "Please leave, or we''ll have to call the police."


    Hera immediately cursed, "You actually dare to call the police? Do you know who my boyfriend is? And besides, I paid to get in here! Why should you kick me out? You''re asking for aint to the consumer association!"


    The vige chief snorted. He was not afraid ofints.


    Their ancestral hall had recently been named the most culturally rich and influentialndmark in X City, as well as a popr tourist destination.


    So, aint to the consumer association did not faze him at all.


    If they did show up, he would simply im they were concerned about her damaging the site, and that would be the end of it.


    "Get her out of here, or we''ll call the police!" The vige chief let out a cold sneer, "By the time the police arrive, you can bring up your boyfriend if you like."


    A sh of hesitation crossed Hera''s eyes.


    She knew Abel was powerful, with his own organization.


    However, through her interactions with him, she realized that these groups were more likely to oppose the police, not work with them.


    Therefore, while Abel could secretly help her deal with the vige chief, he would not make a move that would directly go against the police.


    At that moment, Hera understood that the situation was not in her favor, so she reluctantly decided to leave.


    As she was leaving, she heard the security guard make a snide remark, "She really thinks she''s some kind of youngdy, huh? Pfft, she''s not even worthy of beingpared to the vige chief''s daughter."


    The vige chief had decided to renovate the ancestral hall, and it had brought the vige significant ie. Their end-of-year bonuses would be muchrger than usual.


    Hence, the vige chief held a very high status in the eyes of the vigers.


    Hera turned around with a cold, menacing look, and shot the security guard a murderous


    re.


    The guard did not flinch, unfazed by a woman''s anger. He turned to the others and said, " Remember this woman. Put her on the cklist."


    "If shees back, don''t let her in. She might be here to steal from our vige."


    "Yes!" the other guards responded.


    Hera was so furious that she almost choked on her anger.


    She had relied on men to get money and was considered quite wealthy.


    Wealthy people were usually well-liked wherever they went.


    Now, she was being chased out by a mere security guard.


    Hera pinned all of her frustration on Luca at the thought of it.


    If it were not for her, Hera wouldn''t have had to endure this humiliation today.


    After Luca shook off Hera, she went straight to the vi.


    As soon as she walked into the living room, she saw Gordan and Gale sitting on the couch


    chatting.


    Both of them greeted her as soon as they saw her. "Good afternoon, Ms. Craw."


    "Good afternoon." Luca smiled at them. She was not surprised to see them here since Luke


    needed their help in this area.


    "Ms. Craw, the boss is upstairs. You should hurry up. He''s been waiting for you for ages,"


    Gale said cheerfully.


    Now that he was no longer single and had Rain by his side, he did not feel ufortable


    seeing Luke and Luca expressing love in small, sweet ways.


    After all, he could always share his tender moments with Rain.


    However, things were different for Gordan.


    As a single man, hearing Gale talk like that and remembering Luke''s strange behavior when


    he found out Luca wasing made him shiver. He could not help but rub his arm, trying to shake off the goosebumps.


    "Ms. Craw, Luke is about to go crazy waiting for you. You should go upstairs quickly," added Gordan, unable to bear the couple''s sickening sweet disy. Luca could not help but let out a softugh hearing the tone of his voice.
