The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1049

Mirabella paused as she heard the suggestion, her fingers absentmindedly scrolling her phone screen. She checked the time before asking, "Got any special plans for today?"

Grady seemed caught off guard for a moment, then chuckled and shook his head. "Not really..." But then he reconsidered, "Actually, I haven't hit the racetrack in a while. How about joining me for a spin?"

Mirabella's eyebrows arched slightly. She'd heard from Atlas about Grady's love for racing, so she nodded with a smile, "Sure, why not."

Nick couldn't help but twitch a bit at this, turning to his sister, "You've only had your license for, what, six months?"

One had the nerve to ask, the other the guts to agree.

Mirabella touched her nose, her eyelashes fluttering down, "Think of it as a bit of practice."

Nick: "..."

Before he could protest further, Grady chimed in, "It's good to get some driving practice after getting your license. We'll head out after lunch."

Nick: "?"

So, was he just extra baggage now?

Grady, ignoring Nick's bewildered look, picked up his phone to call Atlas about prepping the car. His phone was still open to the Messenger app, and before exiting, he noticed a digital gift Nick had sent. He gave Nick a sideways glance before accepting it.

After that, Grady found Atlas's number.

Nick heard his phone buzz, glanced at it, and just sighed, "..."

Meanwhile, Mirabella had opened the cake box, lit the candles, and dimmed the lights for the birthday celebration. Celebrating a family elder's birthday had to have that special touch.
