The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 734

When James got back to Ashford, it was already three in the afternoon.

As soon as he stepped off the plane, his phone buzzed with a call from Wyatt. Just as he was about to chat with Mirabella, Nick stepped in between them. "If you’ve got stuff to handle, go ahead. We’ve got a ride coming."

James had caught the tail end of his own phone call. He pocketed his phone, gave Nick a brief smile, and nodded. "Alright then."

It wasn't until James left that the chill in Nick’s eyes began to thaw.

Mirabella, noticing his demeanor, raised an eyebrow. "Nick, you seem to have a problem with James?"

Nick straightened up, his handsome face showing little emotion. "Not exactly a problem, just think the guy’s a bit too crafty for my liking."

After a pause, he added more seriously, "Mirabella, you might want to keep an eye on him."

Mirabella’s phone buzzed in her pocket. She mumbled an acknowledgment to Nick, fished out her phone, and after a quick conversation, hung up. "Let’s go, Zach’s waiting for us in the parking lot."

With that, she led the way, towing her suitcase behind her. Nick followed without another word.

Soon, they found Zach in the parking lot. He looked more worn out than a few days ago, dark circles under his eyes evidence of sleepless nights.

As Mirabella loaded her luggage into the trunk, she glanced at Zach with concern. "Zach, you’ve been burning the candle at both ends?"

Zach adjusted his glasses, opened the passenger door for her, and replied, "Yeah, too much to wrap up before the year’s end."
