The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 743

The man didn’t waste a second. He quickly tapped the earpiece hidden under his collar, whispered a code word, and then turned it off. After a brief pause, he started typing on his computer: “Are you helping the Shepherd family?”

Mirabella’s fingers danced over the keyboard as she replied, “Dad, aren’t you helping them too?”

“Bullshit.” That was all he sent back.

Mirabella raised an eyebrow but didn’t let it bother her. “Logging off.”

Just as she was about to shut down her computer, she noticed an envelope on the desk. She hesitated, then typed one more message: “Don’t take any more jobs related to the Shepherd family. Do me this favor.”

No more using “Dad” now.

The man sat up straighter and typed, “So you’re still saying you’re not helping the Shepherd family?”

“If that’s what you think... sure,” Mirabella replied, her words oozing sarcasm.

The man’s lips twitched as he quickly typed another message: “Didn’t you take on a Shepherd family job before? What, returned the goods? Made peace? They’re not after you anymore?”

Mirabella: “...”

Fine, you want to play hardball?

She closed the chat window, her fingers flying over the keyboard. Thirty seconds later, she hit the confirm button and shut down her computer.

Meanwhile, next door in the villa, Curtis had been tracking someone for ages when his computer screen suddenly flashed. A satellite map popped up, pinpointing a coffee shop just two hundred meters from Evergreen Gallery with a blinking red dot.

Curtis was stunned by how easily he’d found the target. No time to think, he put on his communicator and ordered his men to follow the lead.
