The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 444

Upon hearing the distinctive tone of his customized notification chime, James swiftly fished his phone from his pocket. A brief look of surprise flitted across his face as he read the text from girl next door.

The words from this morning?

His piercing eyes squinted slightly as his fingertips paused on the screen. After a long moment, a faint smile crossed his chiseled features, and he replied, [Of course, my word is my bond.]

Mirabella was referring to his earlier offer, "You can come over to my place sometime. It's peaceful. I'll add your fingerprint to the front gate."

Mirabella pursed her lips as she read the response and typed back, [Are you home right now?]

James replied, [Yes, just come over.]

With that, Mirabella pocketed her phone and made her way next door, decisively choosing the handsome neighbor over the insufferable Donald.

As Mirabella approached the villa next door, James stepped out to greet her, dressed in light casual wear, his handsome face exuding an air of serene elegance. He reached out to open the gate, eyeing Mirabella with an inquisitive intensity. "So, did Zach's blind date wrap up?"

"Yeah," she nodded, stepping inside.

James closed the door behind them without a second thought.

"How'd it go? Anyone catch your eye?" he asked in a low voice, walking beside her.
