The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 655

On Twitter, the winds of public opinion were slowly shifting.

After expressing gratitude to his circle of ace attorney friends over the phone, Zach stood up, ready to leave the firm. Just then, a knock echoed on the office door, which was ajar. Zach glanced up and called out, "Come in."

Expecting a colleague, Zach was momentarily taken aback to see Emmitt stepping through the doorway. "Emmitt? How did you know I was at work?"

"I called Mom. She mentioned you were putting in extra hours at the office today," Emmitt replied in a soft tone.

Zach nodded, went to the side to pour a glass of water for his brother, and casually asked, "Feeling any better? Cutting down on the drinks, I hope?"

Taking the water, Emmitt sat down and said, "Yeah, I've laid off the booze. Feeling much better." He took a seat on the couch, paused for a moment, then said, "I saw what's happening on Twitter."

Leaning against the armrest of the sofa, Zach’s gaze turned frosty. "This nonsense about being some kept lover... I had a simple dinner with Mirabella and the Autumn siblings last night, and the paparazzi took it out of context. These journalists really need to find better things to do."

Emmitt's eyes dropped slightly, masking the bitterness within as he asked naturally, "Do you need any help with this?"

"Now I'm more worried about Mirabella's situation at school. Sheesh, she went on that show without showing her face for a reason—to avoid this kind of trouble. And now... who knows what'll happen," Zach said, rubbing his temples. As her brother, he was genuinely worried.

The brothers chatted idly for a bit more, and soon Emmitt left the law office.

Sitting in his car, Emmitt didn't start the engine right away. His hands rested on the steering wheel as he gazed out the window, lost in thought. After a while, he pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed his assistant.
