The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 639

Owen stood up and casually walked over to Mirabella, flashing a friendly smile. "Ms. Mirabella," he greeted her, dripping with politeness.

Mirabella nodded slightly and gestured towards Zach, who seemed a bit out of it. "This is my brother, Zach."

Owen extended his hand. "Owen. Nice to meet you, Mr. Davis."

Still a bit confused, Zach shook Owen's hand.

Soon enough, everyone took their seats.

While they were looking at the menu, Zach leaned over and tugged on his sister's sleeve. "How do you know this Owen guy?" he asked, clearly puzzled.

He had thought it was Autumn who wanted to get closer to his sister, but it seemed he had read the situation wrong.

Mirabella took a leisurely sip from her coffee cup and replied calmly, "I treated him once."

Zach had missed Linnea's visit that day, so he was out of the loop. The idea of his sister treating the mayor seemed almost unbelievable. Could she really be that skilled?

He watched his sister in silent awe.

"Ms. Mirabella, I hope my mother didn't bother you too much when she visited the other day," Owen said, remembering how Mirabella preferred her privacy during the follow-up visit.

Mirabella shrugged it off. "No big deal."

Owen laughed and turned to Zach, striking up an easy conversation with him, keeping things friendly.

Zach was used to high-profile events, but having dinner with someone as influential as Owen, a top figure in the city's political scene, was a first for him. Initially, he was nervous, but seeing his sister so composed—as if Owen were just another guy—helped him relax. He couldn't embarrass her.

Autumn quickly headed to the front desk.

Now, only Mirabella and Owen were left in the hallway. Luckily, the private restaurant wasn't too busy at midday, so they were mostly unnoticed.

Still waiting for Zach, Mirabella chatted casually with Owen, her hands in her jacket pockets, her head slightly bowed, looking relaxed.

Suddenly, she sensed something and looked up at the restaurant's large windows.

Outside stood a shady figure with a camera, the lens aimed right at her. Mirabella frowned.

Owen noticed her change in demeanor and followed her gaze. The paparazzo, realizing he might have been spotted, quickly turned and walked away briskly.
