The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 70

Morgan's lips curled into a bitter smile, the first time in his life he tasted the flavor of regret.

If only he hadn't misunderstood, and rebuffed the director's kindness, perhaps such a versatile student would have been the crowning achievement of his teaching career.

But then, Morgan's gaze lifted once again to Mirabella. She had been quiet from the start, never arguing or coming forth to explain herself, her eyes filled with indifference, as if she was just waiting for this moment, to watch everyone's embarrassment as they squabbled over her.

Morgan withdrew his mocking gaze, thinking that even with good grades, he didn't care for students like her who lacked any sense of manner.

Soon, Morgan approached Mirabella, his voice laced with sarcasm, "Miss Mirabella, you're quite the character, aren't you? Silent as the grave. I must say I'm quite impressed." Without waiting for anyone else to speak, he left the office with an expressionless face.

Anthony frowned. This Morgan really was something.

"What's this 'silent as the grave'? The moment she arrived, you all started grilling her, never even giving her a chance to explain," Annette muttered under her breath, unable to watch any longer.

When they thought she had poor grades, they suspected her of nepotism, and now, with the grades laid out for all to see, they mocked her for supposedly hiding the truth. Hadn't they considered that if the preliminary exam scores hadn't come out, Mirabella would still be mired in their loud accusations?

"What's with that teacher's attitude? So condescending. Anyone would think my daughter had done something wrong," Shawn said, his face clouded with anger and his tone far from pleasant.

He had also gone to check his daughter's results - first place, with full marks.
