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

Chapter 1565

Dane, that old fox, always loved showing off his protégé whenever he got the chance. Now that Dr. Elliot had finally snagged a standout student, the last thing he wanted was for them to get poached by Dane's crew. That would really sting!

Sure, Dane's protégé was impressive, but Dr. Elliot couldn't shake his irritation. He fired off a few more texts to Mirabella, clearly agitated.

Mirabella raised an eyebrow, sensing her professor's strong aversion to James.

"You're giving me a weird look," James said, glancing over at Mirabella, who was sizing him up.

Mirabella had already stashed her phone, leaning casually against the doorframe, propping her chin on her hand with an easygoing demeanor. She let out a soft sigh, "Good-looking people always seem to grab more attention."

"That doesn't exactly sound like a compliment," James quipped, lifting an

eyebrow.

"Why wouldn't it be? I'm being totally sincere!" Mirabella defended herself without missing a beat.

James just chuckled, deciding not to call her out on it.
