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

Chapter 1570

"His health's really picked up lately, thanks to your amazing herbal remedies," Nick remarked, reminiscing about the past. He added with a hint of curiosity, "You haven't met Chester yet, but I bet he'd really take to you."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the medicine Mirabella brought along.

Nick sighed inwardly. Ever since Nellie passed, Chester had been like a shell of his former self, completely neglecting his health. Sometimes Nick thought that if it weren't for his sense of duty and revenge, Chester might not have made it this far. But now, seeing Chester care about his well-being was a promising sign.

With these thoughts swirling, Nick glanced over at his sister, a mix of feelings washing over him. Despite her enigmatic nature, since she'd come home, subtle yet significant changes had been happening-changes none of the brothers could've managed.

Nick couldn't help but chuckle, wondering which side of the family she got her boldness from. Shaking his head, he shifted gears, "I'll get Atlas to arrange a few folks to keep an eye on you for a bit."

"I'm just worried about last year's fiasco happening again," Nick referred to the time she was kidnapped at the airport.

Mirabella caught on, calmly dismissing his concern, "No need, Nick. It won't happen again."
