The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 766

It was Jenna who had sent her the link.

Curiosity piqued, Mirabella raised an eyebrow and clicked on it, which took her straight to a special topic on the school's online forum. The topic included some text and a video—the recording of this afternoon's speech.

"What are you watching?" Leo, sitting beside her, perked up at the sound from her phone and leaned over curiously.

“A recording of the school speech,” Mirabella said, watching the first part featuring Matthew's speech. “He's a top-notch student from Prestige College.”

At the mention of Prestige College, admiration flashed across Leo's face. Though he'd been a decent student, Prestige College was always a distant dream for him.

“They actually got someone from Prestige College to speak at your school?” Zach asked, nudging the clingy dog away with his foot.

“Yeah, probably to lighten the mood a bit,” Mirabella nodded.

Zach gave her a knowing look, familiar with this kind of event, and then asked, “Did they have a student representative speak too?”

“Yes.” Mirabella’s eyebrows lifted, and she sat up a bit straighter.

Zach grinned, “Was the student representative you?”

“Yeah,” Mirabella replied modestly, “I just went up and said a few words.”

“Got a link to the video? I'd love to check it out.” Zach pulled out his phone.

Emmitt sensed Mirabella’s glance but didn’t dare to meet her eyes. Seeing the link, he felt a wave of joy wash over him.

Taking a deep breath, he didn’t immediately click on it but stood up, told everyone he was heading to his room to rest, and went upstairs.

Once in his room, Emmitt finally opened the link and started watching the video intently. He watched without skipping, straightening up when Mirabella appeared around the seventy-minute mark, positioning his phone for a better view.

In the video, Mirabella didn’t use flowery language or elaborate rhetoric like the previous Prestige College students. Standing straight at the podium, she asked everyone about their dreams. Confidence radiated from her naturally, especially when she declared her goal to be the valedictorian for the final exams. That declaration was more than just an inspiring message; it was a statement of fact.

After watching the entire segment, Emmitt was filled with a complex mix of emotions.
