The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 709

Vincent glanced at his mom, Judy, mulling over the situation for a few seconds before he spilled the beans about how Michelle had been bad-mouthing and leaking Queen Mira's personal info online.

Upon hearing this, Judy's face turned stormy, and she slammed her hand on the table. "Can you believe the nerve of that woman? Making mistakes is one thing, but that is no way to apologize!"

Vincent jumped at the sudden bang on the table from Judy.

"No way, Mirabella always seemed so soft-spoken and gentle, she's bound to be pushed around. I need to check on her," Judy declared, standing up.

Though she had only met the young lady a couple of times, her impression of her was genuinely favorable. Besides, she was invited over for dinner, not to be mistreated.

Seeing his mother's reaction, Vincent quickly grabbed her arm, "Mom, please, don't rush into this. It's their private matter; it wouldn't be right for us to interfere."

Well, even though Queen Mira seemed… demure, he didn't quite see her as someone who could be easily bullied.

Getting the better end of the deal was more her style.

"I…"

Judy was about to argue when the cell phone on the table buzzed to life.

It was Mirabella's phone.

She had casually left her phone on the table during dinner and forgot it when she left.

Knox, who was sitting next to Mirabella, instinctively glanced at the phone as it rang.

He didn't mean to snoop, but his eyes caught the caller ID marked 'James' and he paused.

Heather had warned her cousin multiple times on their way to see Mirabella, insisting on showing sincere remorse in front of her.

But, it didn't take long for Michelle to revert to her accusatory manner.

Hearing her cousin's voice, Michelle quickly realized her mistake and took a deep breath before bowing deeply to Mirabella. "I'm sorry."

Mirabella, however, simply stepped aside, her actions indicating she wasn't interested in Michelle's apology.

Heather removed her glasses, revealing her swollen eyes. Despite the sparse flow of patrons, she kept her mask on, mindful of her public image.

"Ms. Mirabella, I'm truly sorry. My cousin's actions were inexcusable. I hope you can see that the Pledger family has already suffered enough and kindly ask that you not pursue this further," Heather said earnestly, her tone devoid of its usual arrogance.
