The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 305

“James, what's your take on a gift for Ms. Mirabella?” Wyatt piped up before long, his mind already rifling through the inventory of James’ valuables. He’d even considered the antiques in the storage room, but ultimately, he felt none of them were quite right.

Curtis glanced at Wyatt, suspecting the man might've been playing both sides despite also feeling the question was a good one.

James’ mouth twitched, showing no desire to entertain Wyatt’s query. “Got too much time on your hands?”

Wyatt rubbed his nose, “Just curious, is all.” He followed it up with an awkward chuckle.

A thought struck Curtis, and he said out loud, “What about gifting Ms. Mirabella a house?”

Wyatt’s eyes lit up instantly, “That’s a brilliant idea! Maybe the one next door so that they could be neighbors.”

Wyatt remembered the house next door seemed rarely occupied despite some recent renovation activity. Perhaps a generous offer would tempt the owner to sell?

“I could pop over tomorrow and see if they’re willing to discuss selling,” Wyatt said, his enthusiasm palpable at the prospect of having a top-notch alchemist for a neighbor. “It’s a win-win!”

James listened to their exchange, massaged his temples, and, without a word, picked up his medicine bottle and stood up, heading upstairs.

Once James was out of sight, Wyatt turned to Curtis, dropping a bombshell, “You know, I think the most practical gift would be giving Ms. Mirabella our boss.”

Curtis was speechless. Wyatt had clearly lost his mind.
