The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1014

Mirabella shot Linden a sideways glance, her eyebrows playfully raised. "Mostly because they're just plain clueless."

Linden's cheek twitched. Even though he knew Mirabella was talking about Meg and her crew, he couldn't shake the feeling that her words somehow included him too.

Trying to brush it off, Linden cleared his throat and spoke with more weight in his voice, "Sure, the experimental data isn't perfect, but ninety-seven percent is still pretty solid. Plus, she's submitting her paper for publication. It’s got a decent chance of getting accepted."

He was well aware of the journal Meg was aiming for—a top-notch international research journal that only accepted papers every couple of years. Having a paper published there meant more than just personal recognition; it could set the stage for future success.

Even though Mirabella seemed convinced that Meg's experiment was bound to flop, academic papers often focused more on contribution than on the results themselves.

Mirabella, however, just shook her head with a knowing smile. "Nah, she won't make it with the Scientific Chronicles."

Seeing Mirabella's confidence, Linden couldn't help but scratch his head and ask, "How do you know that?"

Mirabella answered with a casual air, "Just a hunch."

With that, she continued on her way, giving a little wave. "Thanks for today, Linden. I'm heading back to the department."

Linden watched her walk away, taking a moment to gather his thoughts. There was something mysteriously intriguing about Mirabella.

After hesitating a bit, he decided not to head back to the department. Instead, he pulled out his phone, made a quick call, and then turned towards the administration building.
