The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1143

Kitty rubbed her forehead, still struggling to wrap her head around it. "A twenty-year-old miracle doctor? That sounds like a tall tale."

Even if such a young prodigy existed, could she really be Delilah's daughter? It seemed too coincidental.

Kitty's eyes dropped slightly as she reopened her phone, interrupting Austin before he could speak, and dialed the number. Austin held back his words, watching her.

The call connected right away but was hung up after two rings. When she tried again, it was out of service, clearly blocked.

Kitty looked upset as she ended the call. "Still no answer?" Austin asked.

"Yeah, she's got quite the attitude," Kitty replied, her voice low. She paused, then messaged Yara on Messenger, double-checking if the number was correct.

After confirming there was no mistake, Kitty had to reluctantly accept that Mirabella was indeed the one recommended by the head of the Pharmaceutical Association.

Austin wasn't feeling any better. "You didn't give your sister's daughter too hard a time, did you?" he asked Kitty.

Kitty's eyes flickered uncomfortably as she pursed her lips. "What could I have done? I just told her to leave Prestige College and keep away from my daughter, that's all."

If she really wanted to cause trouble, she would have had her out of Riverdale ages ago.

Austin, familiar with Kitty's ways, knew her offhand comment probably meant more. He rubbed his face and sighed heavily.

Kitty glanced at him and muttered, "Weren't you the one who arranged for her to be kidnapped before? If we're talking about making things difficult, that's it."

Austin's expression darkened further. If he'd known the sister's daughter was so capable and connected, he would have brought her back to the Cunningham family and nurtured her properly, not orchestrated that disaster.
