The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 95

In any typical scenario, a student being interviewed on a television program would exude modesty, answering the host's queries with a tempered humility. So why was this particular student so audaciously blunt, her impatience almost palpable?

The surprising part was, the host doesn't seem to be bothered by it. Indeed, beauty does seem to wield its own form of justice.

Snapping back to the moment, the host offered a sheepish grin and chuckled, “Ha-ha, I suppose you’re quite confident about your performance, then. Well, we're wishing you all the best and hope you can advance to the next round.”

“Thanks.” Mirabella breezed past them and headed out.

Watching her leave, the host muttered, “I wonder which school she’s from. Such a looker – she’d have legions of fans if she ever decided to join showbiz.”

As soon as Mirabella stepped outside, Delilah and Shawn, who had been waiting eagerly, spotted her instantly.

“Sweetheart, all done already? That was quick,” Delilah remarked, her eyes darting to the entrance to check if other students were exiting too.

“Yep,” came Mirabella's succinct reply. She knew she could have finished even sooner had she not been trying to maintain the appearance of a studious demeanor.

“How did it go?” Delilah asked, her maternal curiosity kicking in despite her confidence in her daughter’s abilities.

Mirabella arched an eyebrow playfully. “Piece of cake.”

“When do we find out the results?” Shawn interjected.

“Tomorrow morning at ten.”

Shawn nodded, committing the time to memory. “Let’s head off then. Your mom and I are taking you out for a feast to celebrate.” That was the plan they’d hatched while waiting outside.
