The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1516

Wyatt was waiting downstairs, his eyes quickly picking up on the bundle of papers James was carrying, a sure sign that Dane had once again demanded a lot from his student.

He coughed into his hand, not daring to ask anything, but hurried to open the rear car door for him.

Once both were seated, the car pulled away from the tech institute, and after a moment, Wyatt ventured to ask, “James, where to now?”

James, having tossed the blueprints onto the adjacent seat, was drumming his fingers on his knee and didn’t respond. Instead, he took out his phone.

He dialed Mirabella.

The phone rang a few times before it was finally picked up.

Before James could speak, the noisy background filled with loud rock music from Mirabella’s end came through, prompting him to ask, “Are you out?”

“Yeah, it's a bit noisy here, maybe I’ll call you back later?” Mirabella said, twisting slightly to lower her voice.

“Okay.” James agreed but couldn’t help asking before hanging up, “Are you alone?”

“No,” Mirabella glanced at the person beside her, “I’m with a senior from my department.”

A senior, huh.

James’s gaze hardened slightly as he replied, “Alright, just make sure you come back soon.”

Mirabella responded affirmatively and quickly ended the call.

James: “?”

Wyatt, driving, suddenly felt a chill in the car, especially down his spine, as if a familiar murderous aura was weaving through the air. He glanced in the rearview mirror.

To anyone else, James looked as usual, but Wyatt, who knew him well, was certain this was far from normal.

However, he kept quiet, knowing all too well the severe consequences of stepping on a landmine. He never wanted to experience that again in his lifetime.

They took their seats in a booth by the window on the ground floor and ordered their meal. Then Blaze looked up at Mirabella and said, “It’s strange, little sister, how come I’ve never seen you at the academy before?”

Given Mirabella's stunning looks, in a department like physics where men were the majority, she should have been one of the most talked-about newcomers last year.

Mirabella, holding her coffee cup, pondered how she had received red envelopes from Blaze during the holidays and decided not to hide it, replying, “My major isn’t in physics.”

Blaze’s face showed surprise, “Not majoring in physics?”

Mirabella nodded, “I’m in the biology department.”

Hearing biology made Blaze even more astonished.

He had inquired about her from Dr. Elliot before, but he had always refused to discuss anything regarding the little sister.

So, this was the reason for his silence?
