Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 124

The old rumors had long been dismissed as mere gossip, thanks in no small part to the Lancasters having vouched for Miranda. But now, hearing it from Arabella’s lips seemed to give the story a new, unsettling weight.

Feigning confusion, Arabella asked, “What happened next? I’m just simply curious. We went to school together, and I never knew you played games. I remember you once borrowed a classmate’s phone to text your parents because yours was broken. They thought you stole money to buy a new one and came to school to give you a good beating.”

She paused, pretending to realize she’d said too much. With a half-smirk, she continued, “Oops, sorry. Just suddenly remember that, a funny memory.”

Arabella’s intention was crystal clear - to paint Miranda as a small-town girl from a poor background, someone who didn’t even have a smartphone back then. And worse, Miranda’s adoptive parents once came to school to discipline her, which was utterly humiliating.

She was intentionally trying to link Miranda to the Zade family. No matter how polished Miranda looked now, she couldn’t shake off the filthy smell people from the gutter would have, and was raised by the Zades, far from any high society lineage.

Arabella’s revelation caught the director and the host off guard. Everyone got dumbfounded, eyes darting around in surprise. Some widened their eyes, eager for the drama.

Arabella looked at Miranda, feigning concern. “I hope you’re not upset I brought up your past?”

Meanwhile, the live chat was buzzing with excitement.

"What? Is Miranda's high-society persona crumbling so quickly?"

"Really? Did her parents really confront her at school? That's just embarrassing."

"They probably did that because she’s done stuff like this before. Clearly, she had issues."
