The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 511

Dane furrowed his brow before finally speaking up, “Mr. Owen, have you really thought this through, opting for Ms. Mirabella’s plan?”

Despite Owen’s ashen face, a sharpness lingered in his eyes, undiminished. “Ms. Mirabella is correct. There is indeed a similar hereditary condition in our family history.”

He had just received a definitive reply from the elder at home. How could someone without genuine expertise pinpoint the subtle symptoms he had been experiencing until recently?

Dane’s face was a canvas of shock once more.

When Mirabella had brought up hereditary illness, Dane had mentally sifted through all the genetic conditions he knew, but none matched Owen’s. Subconsciously, he had assumed she was conjuring up hereditary illness as a smokescreen for her incompetence.

But Owen was no fool to abandon his principles for a young lady’s words. If he altered his initial response, it likely meant he had verified it with his family.

Dane’s gaze drifted to the smartphone in Owen’s hand, a dry lump forming in his throat. He pressed on, “Is it this... Wasting Syndrome?”

“I can’t be sure of the name, but it’s indistinguishable from what I’m dealing with now,” Owen replied. His eyes darkened.

The message from his father was clear: without a known cause, those afflicted by this ailment inevitably succumbed. With no significant medical case history, it was understandable that the Reeves family was in the dark.

Dane needed no further explanation to grasp the gravity of hereditary illness. He looked at Mirabella, wanting to convince himself it was all guesswork, but this was a matter of illness, and some things couldn’t be guessed.

Dane fell silent.
