The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1015

Can you really stand up to Wade, Calvin? Even with Mr. Belcher backing you, Wade’s reputation and experience in the scientific community are leagues ahead of Mr. Belcher’s, aren’t they?

Zane smirked to himself. Once the call connected, he filled Wade in on how Meg was plagiarizing Mirabella’s ideas. “…Alright, I’ll wait for you to come over.”

Zane hung up shortly after. He had been on the verge of blowing his top earlier, but Wade’s response helped him cool down.

Linden, who had been listening in, was completely floored. He didn’t catch what was said on the other end, but just hearing Mr. Zane mention ‘Wade’ was enough to leave him gobsmacked.

There were plenty of professors in the department, but Wade was the authority, the one all the students looked up to. Linden had been at Prestige College for nearly five years and had only caught glimpses of Wade from afar.

Swallowing hard, Linden couldn’t help but entertain a bold theory. He turned to Zane, “Sir, could Mirabella be Wade’s apprentice?”

He’d heard last year that Wade was considering taking on a new apprentice. Given Mirabella’s skills and her early entry into their research group, it seemed entirely plausible.

Zane paused, surprised by Linden’s question, before replying, “I’m not entirely sure. I only know that your classmate knows Wade, but whether she’s his apprentice, neither of them has ever said.”

Still, considering Wade’s approach, it seemed much like how one would treat an apprentice, didn’t it? Wade was never one to get tangled in departmental politics or waste time on petty issues.

Linden was still in a daze, feeling like the world had turned upside down. Just moments ago, he’d been worried about Meg’s connections with a supervising teacher, fearing it might spell trouble not just for Mirabella but for himself, too.
