The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 78

Leo had added Mirabella on Messenger quite a while ago, but back then, learning that his sister had been raised in the countryside - no offense intended - he worried she might be a bit of a pest. So, even after connecting, he never struck up a conversation with her.

With a nickname clearly noted, it didn't take Leo long to find the chat with Mirabella. His fingers tapped several times on the screen as he entered an amount in the money transfer panel.

"I can only send two hundred grand a day. Take this for now, and I'll send more tomorrow. Just buy whatever you like, and if it's not enough, let me know," Leo said with nonchalant ease.

The notification sound from her phone signalled another hefty transfer.

Was this some kind of family gene? It must be, right?!

Rubbing her temples, Mirabella didn't even pull out her phone. She was about to decline when Leo's voice came through once more.

"If you don't take it, I'll think you're still mad, and you don’t like your new brother."

Mirabella fell silent. Listen to that - this family all had the same methodical way of forcefully giving money.

Still reeling from the forced windfall, Mirabella felt a bit spaced out even while sitting down to dinner. The facade of a poor family life had been skewed, and now, with Leo's flashy moves upon their first meeting, the situation was well beyond the definition of poverty.

"Mira, what's on your mind? You seem distracted," Delilah asked with concern next to her. It was the first time Delilah saw the kid so out of it ever since she sat down at the table.

Mirabella snapped back to reality and shook her head with a complex expression, "Nothing."

Leo glanced over at her, the young girl's face still a bit dazed. Perhaps due to their blood relation, he suddenly found this expression, which would seem silly on someone else, quite endearing on his sister.
