The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 647

Heather, visibly irritated by the silence, turned her head to stare out of the car window, vowing never to drag this dimwit into any public event again. What should have been a smooth variety show livestream had turned into a personal branding disaster, all thanks to this blockhead.

Michelle, freshly chewed out, was understandably flustered. Seeking distraction, she mindlessly scrolled through Twitter. Her direct messages were flooded with dozens of encouraging notes from her followers. The words lifted her spirits, albeit slightly. Though there were some haters, they were far fewer than after previous episodes.

Closing her inbox, Michelle habitually clicked on the trending topics page. One particular headline immediately caught her eye: ‘City Official’s Scandal with High School Student Severely Damages Public Image.’ It was the top trending story, with views skyrocketing past the million mark.

The headline alone made Michelle think of Mirabella. With a scoff, she tapped into the post. The content was brief, predominantly images. Despite the distance and slight blur of the photographs, there was no denying the striking beauty of the girl pictured. As Michelle zoomed in on the picture, a sense of familiarity washed over her; she couldn’t shake the feeling that she knew the girl in the photo. The man standing beside the girl was masked, revealing only the merest hint of his features.

Curiosity piqued, Michelle dove into the comments section and was stunned by the top comment, which had amassed hundreds of thousands of likes. She had expected the girl’s identity to be exposed, but instead, it was the masked man who was identified. And not just any man, but Owen—the highest-ranking official in their city.

Overwhelmed by the implications, Michelle quickly flipped back to review the post once more, then opened the images again. After a long, careful look, she finally realized why the girl seemed so familiar—it was Mirabella, the country cousin.
