The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 155
Shawn gleefully sauntered out of the kitchen with a glass of water in hand. His
spirits were visibly lifted by the conversation he overheard. “A man’s gotta focus
on his career, right?”
Zach had been wandering around the house for the past few evenings,
constantly revolving around Mirabella, which was starting to get on Shawn's
nerves.
Delilah cast her husband a knowing glance, immediately catching onto his thinly
veiled enthusiasm. “You got your way,” she said with a hint of amusement.
Shawn simply took a sip of his water, his eyes crinkling with a smile. Even though
he had already eaten, he sat down at the dining table, cradling his glass, and
quietly watched Mirabella eat her meal.
Despite being accustomed to her father’s watchful gaze, Mirabella couldn't help
but look up. “Dad?”
Shawn gently nudged the bowl of salad closer to her. “Eat up, kiddo. You study
so hard every day. You're getting all skin and bones.”
A twitch of helplessness flickered at the corner of Mirabella’s lips. Ever since she
returned to the Davis household, she felt like she had been fed well enough to
start rounding out at the cheeks. How could her dear old dad not see that?
Delilah caught her daughter’s look of playful exasperation, and couldn't hold back
a laugh. “Oh, Shawn, give it a rest. At this rate, your daughter's going to stage a
protest.”
Shawn looked up, puzzled. “Protest? What protest?” After asking, he turned his
baffled gaze back to Mirabella. She was always such a good girl.
Delilah shook her head and then rubbed her slightly sore shoulders. “Shawn, let
the girl eat. Why don't you come and give me a shoulder rub?”
“Sure thing.” Shawn stood up and followed his wife to the living room, where he
began to knead her shoulders with practiced ease.
Mirabella observed the couple from the dining room. One looked at the other with
tender eyes. while the other's face was a picture of bliss. The atmosphere was so
warm and fuzzy that it practically bubbled with pink hearts. With a silent sigh,
Mirabella turned away from the unexpected display of affection.
After finishing her meal and tidying up the kitchen, Mirabella stepped out to find
Delilah had left the living room. Shawn was already preparing his special coffee
set, steeping the expensive. blend Mirabella had brought home a few days ago.
He beckoned her over. “Come join your old man for a cup or two.”
Mirabella’s lips quirked. Anyone would've thought they were about to share a
bottle of wine.
“What have you guys been up to lately?” she asked casually, settling onto the
sofa and taking a cup of coffee.

Shawn and Delilah had already planned a surprise for their daughter. He gave a
vague response. “Oh, the company landed a big account, so everyone's pulling
extra hours,” he deflected.
“Really?” Mirabella raised an eyebrow, her beautiful eyes clearly skeptical. “Feels
like you're keeping something from me.”
Shawn's hand trembled, nearly spilling his coffee. He coughed and asserted with
feigned seriousness, “Honestly, what could we possibly hide from you?”
Mirabella let out a prolonged “Oh,” her tone rich with implication.
“Too clever by half,” Shawn thought, quickly averting his gaze and focusing on
his coffee.
