The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1585

“Really? Him? He’s probably busy,” Mirabella blinked, surprised at Nick's sudden mention of James. After all, Nick always seemed like he wanted to erase James from the map. Then again, it had been a couple of days since James had been around.

Nick frowned slightly at her response. While his face showed no dissatisfaction, his tone took on a chilly edge, “The world isn’t short of busy people like him.”

Mirabella picked up on Nick's hidden discontent and swiftly changed the subject. “Nick, you shouldn’t always be buried in medical school work. You need to give yourself a break every now and then.”

Mirabella waved her hand in the air with a sweet smile, paying no mind to her now messy curls. “Alright, take care, Nick. See you later, Nick.”

“Nice to meet you,” she called out.

Suppressing his curiosity, Denny managed a slight smile, trying to appear less aloof. “Mira.”
