Chapter 1366

Minutes after trying to resend the message, Mirabella still got the same

notification-it didn't go through. With a light tap on her phone, she decided not to bother sending any more messages. She wasn't too worried; Morgan might be straightforward, but he had a knack for staying out of trouble.

James, who was driving, glanced over at Mirabella, noticing she was lost in thought. "Still worried about Mr. Boyd's health?" he asked, breaking the silence.

Mirabella snapped back to reality at the sound of his voice. Putting her phone away, she shook her head. "Everyone has their time," she replied, a touch of resignation in her voice.

"We do what we can," James said, his tone reassuring.

"Yeah." Mirabella nodded, her eyes drifting to the scenery outside the car window. Suddenly, something crossed her mind. She took off the necklace she was wearing, "Didn't you say you wanted to borrow this the other day?"

James glanced over, noting that she was looking much better. He reached out, took the necklace, and slipped it into his pocket. "I'll give it back once I'm done."

"Alright." Mirabella replied simply, not questioning his need for the necklace.
