Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 322

Miranda couldn't be bothered to respond to Carter, just gazing out the window instead.

Even though Zephra was also a major city, wealthy in its own right, it paled in comparison to the bustling vibrancy of Virell.

Virell was teeming with people from all over the globe, and it seemed like the security was a notch above as well.

Despite Miranda's clear disinterest in a conversation with Carter, the latter’s mouth just kept running.

"Miranda, you live alone in that big house of yours?"

Without even lifting an eyelid, she muttered, "Yeah."

"And your parents?"

Miranda replied, "Gone."

Carter fell silent for a moment. "I'm sorry."

Miranda uttered, "It's fine."

"What about other family? Like siblings or cousins?" Carter just couldn't hide his curiosity towards Miranda.

"They're gone too," Miranda responded.

Carter was taken aback, realizing she might have it worse than he did.

"Your entire family’s dead, that must be tough," he commented.

Miranda was at a loss for words, unsure if he was being naïve or just plain foolish.

"Blood relatives are gone, but the others are alive and kicking," she added dryly.

Carter assumed she was just trying to hide her sadness. "Don't be sad. Why not consider me family? Then you won't be alone anymore," he suggested boldly.
