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

Chapter 364

Leo pondered the question his sister had posed to him as soon as he got back, wondering if there was any chance his tune had bumped into another on the charts. Looking up at Mirabella, he inquired with a casual smirk, “You knew about the Twitter fiasco already, didn’t you?”

Inevitably, the truth would surface, so there was no point in keeping secrets. Mirabella nodded. “Caught wind of it scrolling through Twitter last night.”

“So, that’s what you and Collins were whispering about yesterday?” It all clicked for Leo in an Instant. No wonder they had skirted around him during their conversation.

“Yeah.” Mirabella rubbed her chin thoughtfully, then offered her version of a pep talk with earnest conviction, “Leo, don’t let those online trolls get to you. Keep your chin up. The truth will come out sooner or later.” Consoling others really wasn’t exactly her strong suit.

Leo watched his sister with a mix of amusement and exasperation. Setting his phone aside, he shrugged, “I’ve been down this road before, Mirabella. I’ve learned to take it in stride.”

After a brief pause, he continued, “What really throws me for a loop, though, is how Jay’s leaked audio could be an exact match for the tune I just polished off today.” Sure, he had shared early drafts with the band, but even if Jay was out to nick his tune, an exact copy was beyond the pale.

Was it some kind of clairvoyance? Or had they just hit that one–in–a–million melody match?
