The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 730

The phone rang, and Mandy’s voice came through almost immediately.

“Mom, why did you let that girl come back to our house? Do you have any idea how much the Gilbert family has suffered because of the Davis family?”

Mirabella's eyes narrowed slightly as she listened. How did Mandy know she was back? She was sure Catherine wouldn’t have mentioned it to Mandy.

On the other end, Mandy massaged her temples, not even waiting for "Catherine" to speak before continuing, “Since you let Mirabella come back, why did you turn Summer away? After all, Summer is your biological granddaughter!”

Turning, Mandy glanced at her daughter who had just returned, noticing the injuries on her hands and the dirt on her coat, clearly having been through a rough time.

Taking a deep breath, she added, “Summer came back especially to see you today, and you treat her like this... Well, never mind, saying too much will only upset you...”

While Mandy kept talking, Mirabella wasn't paying much attention, focusing instead on the message that Summer had been here today.

Recalling the earlier conversation at home about Summer, and Nick's odd behavior today, she pieced together that Nick must have bumped into Summer while out fetching the parcel and soy sauce.

Mirabella fiddled with her phone, waiting for Mandy to finish her ramblings before heading to the kitchen.

Catherine was brewing a gingerbread latte when Mirabella approached with the phone. “Who’s on the line?” she asked.

Mirabella didn't reply, simply placing the phone next to Catherine's ear.

Hearing her daughter's voice, Catherine gave Mirabella a look before responding in a muted tone, “Mandy, what is it?”

Mandy, realizing Catherine had just asked 'Who’s on the line?', felt a mix of annoyance and frustration, realizing her words hadn't been heard by Catherine after all.
