Chapter 884

Mirabella's villa wasn't far from James's place, just a quick one or two-minute drive.

At the entrance, James handed her a pair of shoes and pointed to the fingerprint lock on the door. "Go ahead, enter your print."

While slipping into the shoes, Mirabella shot him a sidelong glance. "Aren't you worried that one day, in a fit of poverty, I'll rob your house clean?"

From the moment she stepped inside, the lavishness of the place hit her like a wave.

James raised an eyebrow, his dark eyes gleaming with hidden meaning. "If you want to, you don't have to wait. You can do it now."

Silently, Mirabella went to register her fingerprint.

James chuckled, shook his head, rolled up his sleeves, and headed to the kitchen.
