The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1165

Meeting up should've been straightforward, but somehow, it turned into a complete disaster. Austin's face was as stormy as the clouds before a thunderstorm. That afternoon, he’d gone out of his way to call Conrad, dropping a hint that Mirabella and their family, the Cunninghams, were relatives. Conrad seemed to soften, his tone losing a bit of its edge.

In the car, Delilah sat quietly, sneaking glances at her daughter. She wanted to say something, but the words just wouldn't come. Finally, she spoke up, her voice soft, "Did Kitty send you any photos?"

Mirabella nodded with a little hum.

The question seemed to tighten Delilah's fingers on her lap. "Aren't you curious about anything?"

Mirabella turned her head, eyeing Delilah's tense expression. After a moment's thought, she smirked, "All I can say is, twenty years ago, photo editing was really something else."

Delilah just sighed. Mirabella gave her shoulder a reassuring pat, "Don't worry too much. What goes around comes around. I'll make sure justice is served."

Delilah felt the weight lift from her heart at Mirabella's words. She sniffed, a smile breaking through, "It's all ancient history, anyway. Those people aren't worth your time."

Mirabella nodded casually, letting the topic of the Cunninghams drop. Instead, she glanced up at Atlas, who was driving. "Can we find a place to eat?"
