The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 740

Wyatt's hands were clammy with cold sweat as the situation spiraled.

Usually, thanks to the Shepherd family's top-notch security, he and Curtis didn't need to be there in person. They could handle everything remotely, just like they did with the exhibition ten days ago.

But now, they were blindsided by this unexpected emergency.

"Any luck yet?" Wyatt pressed, his voice edged with anxiety.

"Relax, keep it cool," James said, glancing at Curtis with a calmness that seemed out of place in the tense atmosphere.

Curtis, frantically trying to regain control, took a deep breath after James’s reassurance and gave it another go. But after ten seconds, he slumped back, defeated. "No good... The other guy's skills are way beyond mine. We'd need someone from the top five hackers to crack this."

James furrowed his brows, about to say something, when Mirabella, who had been quietly observing, spoke up.

"Let me take a shot," she said, her voice carrying a seriousness and authority that was hard to ignore.

Wyatt and Curtis turned to her, surprised to realize she was even there.

"Uh... Ms. Mirabella, you know computers?" Wyatt asked, echoing Curtis's unspoken question. But something in Mirabella's steely gaze made him rethink his skepticism.

Before Curtis could react, Mirabella shrugged off her thick down jacket, took the laptop from his hands, and started typing at a speed that made Wyatt’s head spin. It was clear she was in a different league.

Curtis's eyes widened in disbelief, unable to keep up with her rapid movements. In a flash, the chaotic mess on the screen resolved, and the surveillance feed snapped back to normal.

"Done," she said coolly.

The whole thing took less than three seconds.
