The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 414

Mirabella retracted her gaze, slipped into her house slippers, and made her way towards the living room.

Three people were seated on the couch, and as Mirabella approached, she could only spot her mom, Shawn, and another person. The third person's back was turned to her, obscured by the sofa's high back, revealing only the top of their head.

"Hey, Mom, Dad, I'm home," Mirabella called out sweetly, her voice devoid of any curiosity to see the guest's face. She placed her backpack on a nearby cabinet and walked over to the water dispenser, pouring herself a glass of water. Just as she took a sip, her mother's voice floated over.

"Mira, sweetheart, why don't you come over and say hello to Grandpa?"

At the mention of "Grandpa," Mirabella nearly choked on her water, coughing violently as her face turned a shade of red. Once her coughing subsided, she set the glass on the dispenser and headed towards the living room.

That must be her mother's father, she thought. She had been momentarily confused, thinking they were referring to the grandpa Catherine's side of the family, who had passed away years ago.

Lost in thought, Mirabella's eyes widened in shock when she got a clear view of the person on the sofa. "Holy smokes, it's that sneaky old man!"

Donald had been facing Delilah and Shawn, but as Mirabella neared, he turned his head to look at her. Seeing the girl's stunned expression, his lips curved into a pleased smile as he greeted her cheerfully, "My dear granddaughter, it's been too long. I have missed you terribly."

Missed my foot! The usually eloquent Mirabella almost let out a swear.

Seeing her nearly explosive reaction, Donald turned back to Delilah and Shawn, his eyes twinkling with mirth. "Look at her. She's so overjoyed, and she's speechless."
