The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1095

From the moment Zach caught sight of his sister's long silver needle, he had this sneaking suspicion that he'd end up on the sharp end of it sooner or later.

And sure enough, just a few days later, that feeling was edging closer to reality!

Mirabella threw him a casual glance and said, “So, what's it gonna be? A little acupuncture from me, or do I let Mom and Dad know you're in a bit of a pickle?”

Zach was left speechless, his face a mix of question marks.

Mirabella, unfazed by his stunned look, yawned and wrapped up the convo on her own terms. “Alright then, tomorrow it is. I'm off anyway. Night, Zach.”

Zach was left gaping, thinking, “How am I supposed to sleep now?”

Nightmares, here we come!

The next morning, Zach shuffled downstairs sporting some serious panda eyes, moving silently as he scoped out the empty living room before letting out a big sigh of relief.

He felt like he was sneaking around in his own house.

Just as he poured himself a glass of warm water, the door to the small room on the first floor creaked open, and out came Mirabella.

His hand shook, almost spilling the water.

Mirabella, noticing his rigid stance, called out, “Zach?” with a hint of curiosity.

She’d been up since dawn tinkering with her herbal concoctions, and the faintest whiff of herbs still clung to her.

Zach cleared his throat, trying to play it cool as he sipped his water. “Were you making medicine again?”

“Yep.” Mirabella nodded, grabbing a carton of milk from the kitchen. “Breakfast is in the warming drawer,” she added before heading back to her room.

With a day off, she planned to finish the batch for the Pharmacists’ Guild.
