The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1321

James had just dished up a bowl of oatmeal, and with a teasing smile, he glanced at the little girl who looked none too pleased. “Want me to feed you?” he joked.

Mirabella, hearing his playful offer, quickly reached for the bowl, grabbed the spoon, and started eating without a word.

James chuckled and settled down beside her.

When they were almost done eating, James casually mentioned, “Oh, by the way, your grandma called yesterday.”

Mirabella paused, swallowing her last bite, and looked up at him, “What did you tell her?”

“I told her you were caught up with a school project and would ring her back when you had a chance,” James said, handing her a napkin.

Mirabella nodded, wiping her mouth. “Alright, I’ll give her a call now.”

“Okay.” James got up, fetched her phone from the nightstand, and handed it to her.

“Thanks,” Mirabella said, dialing her grandma’s number.

James started tidying up the table, his mind drifting back to what Catherine had said on the phone last night. People might change after waking up. But besides the girl's slightly unreadable expression when she woke, nothing else seemed different.

Mirabella’s call connected quickly. The conversation was as routine as ever, neither bringing up anything new.

After a bit of chit-chat, Mirabella said, “Hold on, let me switch to video.”

Catherine’s tone changed, “Next time, okay? I’m outside, not really convenient for a video call.”
