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

Chapter 883

Yara straightened up, a hint of frustration in her voice. "Mom, do you think the Shepherd estate is just some place you can waltz into?"

She had met Mrs. Minerva Shepherd by chance, and their shared interest in history had given them something to talk about. Getting invited to the Shepherd estate even once was already a big deal.

"You're such an exceptional daughter, and Mrs. Shepherd likes you..." Kitty began, but Yara cut her off.

"Stop right there. I don't need a lecture on what's right or wrong. I have my own standards," Yara snapped, standing up. "I'm going to my room."

Kitty shook her head in exasperation. Her daughter was smart in so many ways, but when it came to playing the social game, she was too naive.

"Yara, if you don't create opportunities, you'll never get to meet the young Mr. Shepherd," Kitty called out as Yara started up the stairs.

Yara froze at the foot of the stairs, then turned around. "You went into my room again, didn't you?"

Kitty looked away, clearly uncomfortable. "I just wanted to tidy up a bit."

Yara pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed heavily. "I'm moving back to the dorm for a while."

With that, she headed upstairs.
