The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1010

Linden turned his head, surprised by Mirabella's sudden grip on his arm, "Hey, freshman?"

As he spoke, his fingers instinctively pressed the doorbell.

"Senior, the person you were talking about, is it Meg?" Mirabella adjusted her bangs with an air of concern.

Linden nodded, "Yeah, that's right." He recalled mentioning Meg in the lab just the day before.

Noticing Mirabella's odd expression, he couldn't help but ask, "What? Do you two know each other?"

With the doorbell already rung, Mirabella sighed, thinking how small the world seemed to be sometimes.

She didn't answer because, at that moment, the lab door swung open.

It was Meg who appeared.

Seeing Linden, Meg was about to greet him, but her words caught in her throat as soon as she saw who was beside him.

Her expression shifted instantly.

What is she doing here? Isn't she just a freshman? How does she even know Linden? And if she's here with him, does she know I used her idea?

The more Meg thought about it, the more her face drained of color, her mind buzzing with panic, her fingers gripping the doorframe so tightly they might break.

Linden noticed Meg's gaze fixed on Mirabella. Meg looked pale, like she'd just seen a ghost.

Confused and not aware of any history between the two, Linden instinctively quieted his breathing, feeling the tension thick in the air.

The silence was heavy.
