The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1294

Mirabella sat quietly, fingers resting on her knees. After some small talk, she glanced at Wade and asked, "Have you been burning the midnight oil again?"

"You can tell?" Wade rubbed his face.

"Late nights aren't kind to the liver. Didn't I tell you to get a check-up last time? You didn't go, did you?" Mirabella raised an eyebrow.

Wade vaguely recalled that conversation and chuckled, "I'm feeling fine."

"Seriously, it won't take much time to get checked out," Mirabella insisted, her tone sincere.

Wade appreciated her concern and nodded, "Alright, I'll go once things calm down a bit."

He'd been up to his ears with work after some crucial research data went missing from the medical school. There was a mountain of information to sift through.

Seeing that Wade seemed to have taken her advice to heart, Mirabella decided not to push further. She thought she might whip up some herbal remedies for him later.

That afternoon, Mirabella headed to the research building after her classes. Walking into the lab, she found Linden, Kason, and Jessie looking pretty downcast.

Dropping her backpack by her desk, she asked, "What's up with you guys?"

Linden adjusted his glasses and sighed, "We heard they're adding more people to our team."

"The newcomers are students Mr. Calvin's bringing in," Jessie said with a frown.

"The higher-ups have no shame. They see our success and shove people in, just to snag some credit," Kason lamented, too bummed to keep working on his code.
