The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 136

Facing Summer’s sneer, Aiden just rolled his eyes and impatiently said to the driver ahead, “Just drive.”

The driver cautiously peered into the rearview mirror and as he started the car, he inquired, “Miss, shall we head to the Education Association first or take Mr. Aiden home?”

Summer’s expression remained sour. She glanced at her wristwatch and frowned. “Drop me off at the association first, then take him home. I’ll grab an Uber back later.”

“Sure thing,” the driver complied.

Summer cast a look at Aiden who sat beside her, stubbornly covering his ears with his hands, and she massaged her temples in irritation before turning to gaze blankly out the window.

In about twenty minutes, they arrived at the Education Association building. Summer smoothed her hair and adjusted her outfit. A crisp and proper dress had replaced her school uniform before she left school.

After checking her appearance and ensuring nothing was amiss, she donned a face mask and got out of the car.

Once the driver saw Summer enter the lobby, he restarted the vehicle, preparing to head back to the Gilbert family residence. Aiden, who had been silent and stone-faced the entire ride, suddenly looked up at the driver and said, “Never mind, find a spot to park. We’ll wait for her.”

He muttered under his breath, “It’s just grabbing some documents. Won’t take too long.”

Surprise flickered in the driver’s eyes. The siblings were known for not getting along and had just had a row. Under normal circumstances, Aiden’s waiting for Summer would be out of the question.

Summer shook her head, disappointment evident in her eyes. Not wanting to spoil her mood further, she didn’t bother explaining and simply put in her earbuds.

...

Meanwhile, after dealing with Aiden, Mirabella headed straight for the herbal market. But she got there a bit late, many of the shops had already closed, and those still open didn’t pay her much mind. After all, she was just a young girl in a school uniform.

Mirabella didn’t mind, though. She browsed a few stores and realized they only had common herbs, nothing of the special or rare varieties she needed.

She stepped out of another shop, and disappointment was clearly etched on Mirabella’s face.
