The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 731

Catherine turned off the burner. "Stop dreaming, I'm not giving it to you. That pendant is Mira's."

Mandy rubbed her temples, clearly frustrated. "Why are you so stubborn? I've told you, that girl’s last name is Howard—she's not even blood-related. Why give such a valuable pendant to Mirabella?"

At the mention of 'valuable', Catherine instinctively frowned but quickly corrected herself. "That pendant is just ordinary, it's not worth much."

"How could it not be valuable... Ah, forget it. A country woman like you wouldn't know the value of jade. Just give it to me, I really need it," Mandy tried to soften her tone.

"I won't give it to you. Just give up on the idea," Catherine said firmly, then promptly hung up the phone.

Hearing the dial tone, Mandy turned livid. "Catherine is really..."

She redialed Catherine's number, but it went straight to voicemail, which infuriated her even more.

Summer glanced at Mandy and asked quietly, "Mom, what did Grandma say?"

"She said she's giving the pendant to Mirabella," Mandy replied, clearly frustrated.

Summer's expression soured. The pendant was meant for a direct granddaughter—did Mirabella even deserve it? With the Davis family already being a thorn in her side, and Mirabella playing the sweet granddaughter in front of Grandma, she was even trying to snatch their family's pendant? How could there be such vile women in the world!

"No matter what, we have to get that pendant back. We can't let Catherine give it to that girl," Mandy said with determination.

Pacing back and forth in the living room with her phone, Mandy suddenly declared, "No, I need to go back there myself tomorrow."

Catherine snapped back to reality, and a smile crept across her wrinkled face. "Well, I have you, don't I?"

Mirabella just glanced at her. "Don't play dumb with me. What if you get burned while I'm gone?"

Hearing the word 'gone', Catherine's expression dimmed momentarily, but she quickly remembered something and cheerfully said, "Grandma will be more careful next time. But you, you've stayed with me for so many days now, your parents must be complaining. Maybe you should head back soon."

"So, you're trying to get rid of me?" Mirabella leaned in, eyeing Catherine.

Catherine swallowed the lump in her throat, avoiding Mirabella's gaze, and muttered, "This place was never your home."

Her voice trembled slightly with emotion.
