Chapter 1590

Mirabella and Grady were chatting away when they turned to see Robert and a few friends looking completely baffled. "Friends? Professor?"

The four snapped back to reality, their faces growing more and more bewildered, especially Blaze and the others.

Owning a car worth a fortune, and calling it a modest lifestyle?

They felt like their understanding of the world was being flipped upside down.

"Hey, let's hop in the car," Robert nudged Blaze's leg, signaling him to stop staring.

Blaze looked like he wanted to say something but ended up climbing into the car quietly.

He figured he'd need to ask the professor later if he'd misunderstood what being broke meant. After all, it was the professor who'd made them think Mira was struggling to make ends meet.

Mirabella raised an eyebrow, glancing back at the car, and she pretty much guessed why they were so flabbergasted. She hadn't expected Grady to go all out like this either.

Once Mirabella and the others got in the car, she checked the time on her watch. Weird, wasn't that guy supposed to be here already? Where on earth was he?
