The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 338

At dusk.

As soon as Mirabella arrived home, she noticed the new surveillance cameras mounted by the front door and several infrared scanners placed high on the walls. Raising an eyebrow, she swiftly approached the devices. Those guys’s movements were efficient.

In the house, she paused at the smart home system installed in the foyer, tapping the screen with her fingertip.

Shawn, who had been leading the way, saw his daughter examining the security panel and circled back. “Oh, I forgot to mention. A couple of guys came by this afternoon to upgrade the security system.”

“Mm-hmm,” Mirabella responded, retracting her hand from the device.

“This new system has more bells and whistles than the old one I installed, but I’ll be darned if I can figure out half of them,” Shawn confessed, with a hint of frustration in his voice. The technicians had only shown him the basics, and after an entire afternoon fiddling with the app, he was still none the wiser.

Hearing this, Mirabella raised an eyebrow. “Let’s go inside. I’ll show you how it works.”

“Alright.”

Shawn nodded and followed his daughter into the living room. Sitting down, he pulled out his phone, launched the app, and showed her a few features, saying, “See these? I haven’t dared to mess with them.”

Mirabella took the phone and began explaining the functions in simple terms. Twenty minutes later, she pressed her hand to her forehead, realizing that she might have overestimated her father’s technical savvy.

Shawn glanced at his daughter sheepishly. “Am I just too old-fashioned for this stuff?”

Mirabella sighed inwardly at his careful demeanor. “No, it’s not you. It’s the software — it’s too complicated,” she replied, keeping a straight face.

Shawn immediately felt vindicated. “Right?! I knew it was too complicated. Your mother insists I’m just being dense.”
