Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 31

The man was the same one who had texted her yesterday.

He smiled, "Of course I'm going to clean up a bit to meet you."

During her time in prison, Miranda had met a few people who were well-connected and capable. Many of them had benefited from her generosity in one way or another and had agreed to find her once they were out.

The man in front of her was one of them.

Miranda reached into her bag and pulled out a credit card. "There's some money on this card. You take care of it."

The man reached out and took the card with a grin. "You trust me that much?"

Miranda grinned back. "Trust is important. But you should know what happens if you break it."

Marion Smith raised an eyebrow and pocketed the card.

"You could invest some in the new film, City Secrets," Miranda suggested casually as she blew on her hot coffee.

Marion asked, "The entertainment industry?"

Miranda nodded, "Yeah. I have a role in it."

"Lead role?" Marion asked.

"Supporting, about 30 seconds of screen time," Miranda replied.

Marion uttered, "Alright."

Suddenly, Marion remembered something. "Do you have enough money to get by?"

Miranda looked up, meeting his gaze. "It'll just keep coming."

She took a sip of her coffee after that.

Ever since Anna's illness had been cured, more and more patients had been seeking her out. These were wealthy individuals, the who's who of society. The wealthier someone was, the more scared they were of dying, and the more susceptible they were to rare ailments.

They chatted for a while, discussing plans, until they were interrupted.

A man with an imposing presence approached, his tailored suit pants and confident stride cutting through the room like a knife.

Marion looked up and raised an eyebrow, asking with a playful smile, "A friend of yours?"

Miranda glanced up at him. "Not really."

With an “okay” reply, Marion was ready to continue their conversation, but then hesitated, uttering in an annoyed tone. "Sir, we're in the middle of a conversation. Do you mind not standing near us like that?"

Dorian's tone was commanding. "Please leave us. I have something to discuss with her."

Marion didn't budge, instead looking at Miranda.

Miranda knew Dorian wouldn't leave until he had spoken to her, so she nodded to Marion, signaling it was okay.
