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

Chapter 243

“So, you're in it for the prize money?” Vincent asked, his expression a mix of
surprise and instant comprehension.

Mirabella nodded, her gaze drifting back to the pages of her book.

Vincent couldn't help but glance at her book. He prided himself on his French
skills, but the text before him might as well have been written in code.

He felt a slight sting to his ego.

Leaning back, he muttered with a wistful air, “This time, I won't lose the national
competition to

you.”

Without even lifting her head from the page she was turning. Mirabella replied
with a breezy, “Oh, then best of luck to you.”

Those who usually threw down that gauntlet ended up eating their words. She
could only offer encouragement.

Time flew by, and soon, the airport staff began announcing it was time to board.
Mirabella was one of the last to stand up, leisurely packing her book and pulling
the small, wheeled suitcase her mom had prepared for her towards the gate,
where she handed her ID and boarding pass to the attendant with a swipe.

Her seat was by the window, and as soon as she was on the plane, she powered
off her phone. pulled her hoodie over her head, and nestled into her seat to rest.
Two and a half hours later, the plane touched down at Riverdale Airport. It was
just past six, and the sky hadn't completely darkened yet.

After deplaning, everyone gathered at the exit as the preliminary rounds were set
to start the next day. The airport was filled with students and participants from all
over the country.

The competition was at Prestige College, and most schools had booked hotels
nearby. Parkside High School was no exception.

Elsewhere, Wyatt, who had just emerged from the VIP corridor, spotted Mirabella
amidst a group of students while he was on a call. He did a double-take, making
sure he wasn't mistaken. He had overheard Mr. Hammond mentioning that he
would bring students to Riverdale for a competition but hadn't expected to bump
into them.

After ending his call, Wyatt approached James, nodding towards Mirabella, “Sir,
look over there, that's Ms. Mirabella.”

James lifted his gaze, his cool eyes landing on a girl who seemed to command
attention wherever she stood, even in her casual pose.

It was as if she sensed she was being watched; she suddenly looked up, her
eyes finding him

with precision.

Their gazes met in mid-air, and a subtle smile played on James' lips. What a
sharp kid.

Wyatt hesitated before asking in a low voice. “Should we go over and say hello?”
After a brief glance from Mirabella that quickly withdrew, James shook his head.
“No need, let's

go.”

With that, he turned away, his usual icy demeanor settling back over his features
as he walked

off.
