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

Chapter 277
“Well, this is a real head-scratcher,” Wyatt muttered under his breath, turning his
attention to James who had been unusually quiet. “Sir, what's your take on
today’s fiasco?”
James was the only one who had had any contact with the person who had
managed to snatch the device, albeit briefly. And although the perpetrator had
slipped through their fingers before they could properly nab him, Wyatt always
trusted his boss* judgment.
James' gaze was detached. His eyes were not quite focusing on anything in
particular. After a moment he finally spoke, “I'm not sure.”
At his words, both Wyatt and Curtis fell into a contemplative silence. If even
James wasn't sure, then they had to consider that today's slippery foe was on
par with the one who had stolen the device the last time.
“I'll keep digging,” Curtis said in a low tone.
James' gaze drifted off, signaling the end of the conversation.
After Mirabella left the exhibition hall, she didn't head straight back to her hotel.
Instead, she instructed her driver to take a leisurely detour around the city before
finally returning to her accommodation.
Her phone had been switched off the entire time, and she only powered it back
on once she was safely in her room. The moment her phone came to life, it was
bombarded with a barrage of messages and alerts from Messenger, not to
mention several missed call notifications.
The calls were from Mr. Hammond, and they were all made within the last half
hour. Ignoring the texts and Messenger for the moment, Mirabella quickly dialed
Mr. Hammond back.
It was already past three in the afternoon, and the results of the final competition
should have been announced.
As soon as the call connected, Mr. Hammond picked up immediately; as if he
had been waiting for her to get in touch. “Mirabella, your phone's finally on. I've
been trying to reach you for ages,” Mr. Hammond's voice sounded urgent.
Mirabella's eyes dropped slightly as she searched for an excuse, “Il went out for a
bit, phone died.”
Mr. Hammond was standing near the flower beds at the base of the Prestige
College administration building, taking a deep breath before asking. “Did you
check your results yet?”
“Not yet,” she drawled, glancing at the time. Hearing a hint of something unusual
in Mr. Hammond's voice, she couldn't help but ask, “Uh, Mr. Hammond, are my
results...?"
Before she could voice her concerns that her performance might have been less
than stellar, Mr. Hammond cut in, stopping her words.

On the other end, the principal of Prestige College was calling for Mr. Hammond,
who politely nodded in acknowledgment to someone before interjecting. “Ah, you
did great, but I can't talk right now. The principal just asked me to fill out some
paperwork for your scholarship nomination. I'll send you a pass shortly. Be sure
to come over to the administration building at Prestige College ASAP. Gotta go.”
After saying that, Mr. Hammond hung up before Mirabella could respond.

Minutes later, Mirabella arrived at the gates of Prestige College, showing the
guard the pass Mr. Hammond had sent her.
The guard remembered her as the most stunning student from the exams and
was quite friendly, allowing her entry without much fuss.
