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

Chapter 406

Mirabella retraced her steps after nearly reaching the elevator. She decided to stop by the nurse’s station to leave a few last–minute instructions before finally departing the hospital. By the time she made it back to school, the third afternoon class was well underway. During the break, Mirabella handed Jenna the autograph that Collins had brought for her and then slumped onto her desk with exhaustion.

Jenna, puzzled and not bothering to look at the autographed item, asked, “Queen Mira, how on earth did you manage to bump into an old man on campus today?”

The news of a student colliding with an elderly person and summoning an ambulance had already spread like wildfire through Parkside High School. However, Jenna had never imagined the student involved would be Mirabella.

Mirabella turned her head, her usually expressive face now void of emotion. “I’m just as mystified as you are about why such an old man would even be at the school!” It almost seemed like he was lying in wait to collide with her.

Jenna touched her nose thoughtfully, “Maybe he is a student’s relative? But he’s okay, right?”

Mirabella shot Jenna a look that clearly communicated her annoyance. “You should be asking if I’m okay.”

She was the one who had been targeted. She was the one who had been falsely accused. She was the actual victim here.

Jenna coughed softly, aware of the dangerous edge to Mira’s aura, and muttered, “But the whole school is buzzing with the story that you were the one who hit him.”

Mirabella scowled. She knew that these old men were nothing but trouble.

“If there’s a misunderstanding, we need to get the security footage from the teachers. A collision like this involving an old man is serious. It can lead to all kinds of public backlash,” Jenna added.

Mirabella was silent for a few seconds before standing up and heading for the classroom door.
