The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 52

Mirabella was lost in her book, at least until she replied to James‘ message. After that, she just couldn’t get back into it. She gazed at the new message from him on her phone, pondering for a brief moment before tapping out a response: [Oh, just snagged it online. I can shoot you the link to the store if you want.]

After a second thought. Mirabella opened up eBay, sifted through her favorites, and found the store she was looking for. She copied the link, flipped back to her Messenger app, and pasted it in for James.

When James received her reply, he dove into the online store she’d mentioned. The shop had a solid five–star rating, a mishmash of products, not a dedicated Incense retailer by any means. But the sandalwood and agarwood Incense boxes looked strikingly similar to the wooden box that old lady had. The prices were low, just over twenty bucks.

No exact matches were seen, but it was pretty clear that the calming incense the old lady had likely originated from this online vendor. However, if it was the legendary secret blend everyone whispered about, it wouldn’t be peddled on some random website, nor would it be that cheap.

James closed the app, and felt a little displeased. In his dark eyes. It was hard to discern if it was disappointment or something else that dimmed their sparkle.
