The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1273

James lifted an eyebrow slightly, "It's just a piece of paper, nothing more."

Mirabella clicked her tongue, realizing this guy must have some clout at the Tech Institute to talk so confidently.

With a smirk, Mirabella glanced ahead, immediately spotting the luxury car in front of them. Her sharp memory quickly reminded her whose car it was.

Hadn't Ben skipped school this afternoon?

Mirabella squinted her eyes, curious.

James caught a glimpse of her in the rearview mirror, staring intently at the car ahead. He joined her gaze and asked, "Is that someone you know?"

Mirabella pulled her eyes away, pursing her lips, "Sort of. Was that car parked there when you showed up?"

"Seems like it," James replied after a moment.

Mirabella nodded, her interest fading as she adjusted her sleeves, "Alright, let's get going."

James glanced at her once more, but let it be. He started the engine and soon made a U-turn, driving them away from the school.

Meanwhile, Ben watched their car disappear, his eyes deep and unreadable. His fingers absentmindedly fiddled with the black ring on his finger.

He waited a few more minutes. With no sign of Lisa, his patience finally wore thin after James and Mirabella left.

Picking up his phone again, Ben decided to call Lisa directly this time.

The call connected immediately. He spoke sharply, "You've got ten minutes to get out here," and hung up just like that, giving Lisa no room to argue.
