The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1279

Afternoon.

The underground auction house on the north side of town.

"You head to the private room; I'll join you in a bit," James said, wrapped in a black trench coat with a matching turtleneck underneath. He gave Mirabella a quick glance, leaving Wyatt to ensure her safety.

Mirabella nodded and followed Wyatt up to the plush private suite upstairs.

The room was cleverly designed for privacy; you could watch everything happening in the bustling auction below without anyone seeing in.

Mirabella settled into a chair, her eyes scanning the lively scene below. Her gaze flitted over the security cameras strategically placed around, noting the tight security.

It felt like a fortress against thieves.

The auction wasn't starting anytime soon, so Mirabella turned away, feeling a bit bored, and pulled out her phone.

As soon as she unlocked it, a notification from Lisa on Messenger popped up, sent about ten minutes ago.

Lisa was asking what her plans were for the day.

Mirabella tapped back a quick reply.

Meanwhile, Lisa, clutching her phone, let out a small sigh of relief when she saw Mirabella's response. She quickly typed back, "No worries... If you're busy, go ahead with your day."

Mirabella raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, then replied, "Just let me know if you need help. Don’t be shy."
