Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 56

The Lancaster Group's banquet was the talk of the upper crust, though a few whispers had slipped out beyond the velvet ropes.

Specifically, there was chatter about Miss Lancaster's stunning looks and how the Lancaster family adored her. Then there was the juicy tidbit about the Hawke family being booted from the event over their own daughter's antics, which had made some rounds in the gossip circles.

However, the four Hawke brothers were savvy enough to squash much of the negative press about their family.

"Miss Lancaster, here's the latest on the Zade family - the places they've been and the people they've met," said William, handing over a folder as Miranda was engrossed in the script for City Secrets.

The role wasn't huge, but it was a paying gig, and Miranda was nothing if not professional when it came to earning her keep.

She set the script aside and skimmed through the details on the tablet William provided. At the sight of the connections and dealings of the Zade family, a sly smile crept onto her face.

"Leak a few places where Arabella frequents. And don't let the Hawke brothers off the hook either. Good siblings should face the music together."

William nodded, clearly eager to carry out the task. "You got it."

"Push Ethan's creditors to be a bit more aggressive," Miranda added nonchalantly, turning back to her script.

"Sure thing." William then added, "By the way, the school administration is asking when you'll be enrolling."

Miranda shrugged, "No rush. We'll see."

"Alright," William agreed.

Later, Miranda made time to visit Cathy in the hospital, continuing her treatment regimen. Though Cathy hadn't woken up, her complexion looked slightly better, showing some signs of vitality.

"I'll be back," Miranda promised softly to Cathy, who was lying there in the hospital bed.

As Miranda left the hospital, she unexpectedly ran into Luna, who was dragging her son along.

"You got into a fight again, didn't you? Look at you! You're breaking my heart!"

The blond teen was clearly annoyed. "Blah, blah, blah. Can you shut up for once?"

Luna didn't seem fazed. "I'm worried about you, that's all."

The middle-aged man trailing behind them chimed in, "The boy's right. You're too naggy. Boys fight, that’s what makes them men!"

Luna's eyes suddenly lit up as she spotted Miranda. She rushed over, blocking Miranda's path. "Hold it right there!"
