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

Chapter 231
Just then, Mirabella turned her head to Jenna and casually said, “You're headed
to the hospital, right? Need a lift?”
Jenna snapped back to reality, shaking her head with a dismissive wave. “No, it's
alright, don’t worry about me.”
Mirabella didn’t press the issue. Soon enough, she and Leo got into the car.
Jenna stood there, lost in thought, as she watched the car disappear in the
distance, still trying to pinpoint where she had seen Mira’s brother before.
Inside the car, Mirabella sat in the passenger seat, turning to look at Leo, who
was behind the wheel. “Leo, what was it you wanted to tell me over lunch?” she
inquired.
Leo's grip on the steering wheel tightened subconsciously before he forced a
nonchalant shake of his head. “Oh, it was nothing. Just a small thing.” Weird, he
always got this inexplicable. surge of nerves around his sister. What was up with
that?
Mirabella arched an eyebrow, seeing right through him. “You seem tense: It
doesn’t seem like just a small thing to me.”
At her words, Leo straightened up, denying, “Tense? No, not at all.”
Mirabella simply smiled, saying nothing.
Leo cleared his throat, about to spill the beans about the variety show, when his
phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, he grabbed the Bluetooth headset beside
him and put it on.
“Hey, Emmitt... You're over at my place? Alright, I'll be there soon.”
While he talked on the phone, Mirabella turned her gaze to the window, her eyes
taking on a distant haze.
After Leo hung up, he looked at Mirabella and suggested, “Emmitt needs me for
something. He's waiting at my place. Let's swing by: you've never seen where I
live anyway.” He was clueless about the misunderstanding between Emmitt and
Mirabella.
Mirabella's expression remained neutral, her fingers idly tapping on her thigh.
She didn’t object and just hummed in agreement.
Traffic was a bit heavy, and it took nearly fifty minutes to get back to Leo's place.
Emmitt didn't have a key, so he waited outside the villa in his car. When he saw
Leo's car pull. up with the figure of Mirabella in the passenger seat, his hand
stalled on the car door.

face her.
Now, seeing her with Leo, Emmitt felt a tangle of emotions. After sitting quietly for
a moment. he finally stepped out of the car.
On the other side, Leo swiped his card, and the villa's gates swung open. He
then drove the car into the garage.
