The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 751

Matthew paused for a moment after speaking, then glanced around behind her and asked, "By the way, where's Taylor? Isn't he with you today?"

"Taylor got caught up with something. He said he'd be a bit late to school," Meg replied with a graceful smile, holding her lunch tray. She glanced at the empty seat next to Matthew and politely asked, "Mind if I join you?"

"Of course not," Matthew said, scooting his chair slightly closer to his cousin.

With that, Meg placed her lunch on the table and sat down. Shortly after, a girl approached, seemingly an acquaintance of Meg's. After a brief exchange, the girl walked away.

Adding Meg to the table didn't make things awkward. Matthew and a few others, including Mirabella, made quick introductions without getting into too much detail before continuing with their meal.

Mirabella and Vincent were always on the quieter side, usually engrossed in their studies. So, it was no surprise that they weren't engaging in much conversation during the meal.

However, halfway through his meal, Vincent suddenly looked up at Mirabella. "I heard you've been getting some extra help with English lit."

At the mention of English literature, Mirabella grimaced, her grip on her fork tightening. "Yeah, I have."

Vincent, pretending not to notice Mirabella's aversion to the subject, pondered for a moment before suggesting, "Literature isn't like science, you know? It's all about interpretation, not something you can easily cram for. Maybe later, I can find you some practice readings to help you out."

After all, he owed her one for sending him a box full of past papers. With only a few weeks left until the senior year finals, it was now or never to return the favor.

Mirabella merely gave Vincent a quiet look.

Matthew, overhearing their conversation, expressed his surprise. "Wait, Mirabella, you're struggling with English lit?"

"No, that's okay," Mirabella responded, shaking her head. "But thanks for the offer."

Matthew didn't insist further and went back to his meal.

Meg, curious about the conversation and noticing Matthew's unusual enthusiasm towards a younger student, couldn't help but ask, "Matthew, is this younger student of yours a senior?"

After swallowing his food, Matthew turned to her and smiled, "Yeah, senior year."

"Oh, the final exams are coming up. Cramming for English lit might be a bit late now. Maybe focusing on this year's key topics and going over summaries might help. There's a chance some of them might come up in the exams."

Meg offered her advice with a smile, sitting up straight with impeccable dining etiquette, the very picture of a lady.
