The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 427

Donald had just reached the bottom of the stairs when Delilah and Shawn approached him with concern, inquiring about his health.

It was Saturday, a day without classes, so Mirabella was lounging on the sofa, idly scrolling through her phone. Next to her sat Zach, who had also taken the day off from work.

Casting a glance towards Mirabella, Donald turned to Delilah and replied, “I owe it to Mira for that incense stick she lit up for me last night. Feeling loads better today.”

Delilah paused, then laughed, “Well, you’ve always been robust. That little concoction of hers is just a hobby of hers, nothing more.”

Donald’s expression twisted slightly. “She made the aromatherapy stick herself?”

“Yep,” Delilah nodded.

Donald then remembered their conversation the previous night. He had asked Mirabella where she bought it, and she had quipped, ‘Online, only nine ninety-nine with free shipping.’

He chuckled inwardly. Quite the little fibber, wasn't she?

Sensing Donald’s gaze, Mirabella looked up only to find him turning away with a look of distaste.

Soon after, Delilah helped Donald to the dining room for breakfast, calling her daughter and son to join as well. Though there was a guest in the house, the atmosphere was much the same as usual. Both Delilah and Shawn were laid-back by nature and didn’t stand on ceremony, except when it came to Donald, whom they treated with unspoken politeness.

Midway through breakfast, Delilah looked up at Zach and said, “Zach, you’ve got that matchmaking event at ten. Don’t forget about it.”

Zach had hoped that with a guest present, his mother might forget about the matchmaking ordeal. Yet, here she was, bringing it up again. Scratching his head, he felt a headache coming on.
