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

Chapter 274
In the gallery's video surveillance backroom, James was lounging in his chair. His
gaze rested casually on the array of screens before him. Though darkness had
enveloped the exhibit hall below, the monitors told a different story, painting a
picture that was far from pitch black.
Wyatt stood by James* side. His eyes too were fixed on the surveillance feed.
Downstairs, the main exhibit hall was in utter chaos, while the upper level was
even more crowded. The sudden blackout had triggered a panicked stampede
among the visitors, who, stumbling in the dark, were more likely to trip the
infrared beams.
Tripping those beams would set off the gallery's intricate traps, potentially
harming many. Considering the guests were a mix of national and international
elites and tycoons, an incident in the gallery could lead to a public relations
nightmare.
Wyatt, with a face ashen as storm clouds, said, “Boss, we might have to shut
down all the security mechanisms.”
Damn it, those bastards actually dared to pull this off, using human lives to force
them into disabling the gallery's security system.
James! fingers were idly drumming on the armrest of his chair. His expression
was as serene as a summer sky. After several seconds, he uttered a nonchalant
“Hmm.”
Wyatt relayed a few commands into his headset. Instantly, the entire array of the
gallery's lethal security devices, including the infrared sensors, was deactivated.
“Lock down all the exits,” James said coolly.
Wyatt complied.
“Seal off the stairways between the first and second floors.”
“Activate the corridor infrared alarm.”
“Turn on the signal jammer.”
“Start up the...”
Each command flowed from James in a calm, measured sequence, showing no
sign of perturbation despite the disarray below.
Meanwhile, Mirabella was blending into the crowd. Her head never once tilted
upward to glance at the ceiling since she had entered the gallery. She was aware
of the countless cameras hidden and visible overhead. Despite the darkness
shrouding the gallery, she knew the backroom screens would be as clear as
daylight.
Mirabella’s gaze narrowed slightly as she noted the infrared beams around the
artifacts had been turned off. It meant anyone could now approach these
treasures without the risk of

triggering the traps. Although the items could be safely taken, whether one could
leave the gallery alive was a completely different matter.
Soon, the two people who had vanished from sight reappeared as if they had
been waiting for this moment. Their goal was clear: to snatch the jade
centerpiece of the exhibit.
Amidst the crowd, Mirabella watched their actions and shook her head. She
wondered which underground ring had sent such inept thieves — it was almost
unbearable to watch.
