The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 894

Johnny knew Mirabella wasn't much of a talker, so he simply started the car without saying more.

Half an hour later, they pulled up in front of a swanky clubhouse. A valet greeted them at the entrance. Mirabella stepped out and glanced up at the sign, recalling that Ashford had a branch of this club too. The decor was similar, but this place looked even fancier.

Johnny parked the car and returned, memories of last year flooding back. As they walked inside, he whispered, "Riverdale Club’s really private. No need to worry about paparazzi."

Mirabella nodded, understanding Johnny's concern.

Their private room was on the second floor. They took their time climbing the stairs, with Johnny leading the way, his demeanor respectful and courteous.

Austin was talking to the butler. "When you meet Mr. Keller later, be respectful. And the gifts I asked for, everything ready?"

The butler nodded. "Yes, sir. Everything’s perfect."

"Good," Austin said, heading downstairs just as Johnny and Mirabella were coming up. His gaze flicked over Johnny, pausing for a moment.

Johnny, being a government official, had an aura that set him apart from ordinary businessmen, something easily noticeable to the discerning eye.

Austin found Johnny’s face vaguely familiar but couldn’t place it immediately. Mirabella, standing on Johnny's right, was mostly out of view, so Austin didn’t pay her much attention.

"Sir?" The butler noticed Austin's sudden stop and distant gaze, calling out in confusion.

"I've been wanting to invite you out for a meal, but I saw you were busy with military training, so I hesitated," Owen said warmly, his usual sternness softening around Mirabella.

Mirabella sipped her coffee and set the cup down calmly. "It's fine."

"By the way, what’s your major at Prestige College?" Owen asked, genuinely curious.

Mirabella paused briefly before replying, "Biology."

Owen wasn’t surprised. Given her strong medical background, it made sense she’d be a standout student in that field.
