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

Chapter 1548

"What on earth are you talking about?" Hank hadn't expected such a scene either.

Worried that Mr. Monks would get angry, he turned his head to look at Calvin, his tone very displeased, "Mr. Calvin, what exactly are you playing at? How could you say such things to Mr. Monks?"

Reprimanded, Calvin was sweating profusely, inwardly cursing Mirabella countless times. He hurriedly apologized, "I'm terribly sorry, it must be because our students haven't been exposed to much, to speak without thinking."

Zane, listening by, was quite unhappy, "Mr. Calvin, perhaps it's you who should watch your words?"

Although he too was taken aback by Mirabella's words, as her teacher, he felt the need to protect her reputation no matter what.

Calvin glanced coldly at Zane, "Don't forget why you're here."

Zane stiffened, knowing that Mr. Calvin was warning him with the matter of patents and research papers. His fingers clenched then relaxed, and finally, he just looked anxiously at Mirabella.

Mirabella took in Zane's reaction and Calvin's attitude, guessing that Calvin must have some leverage over him, forcing him to compromise.
