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

Chapter 1604

Summer's eyes were as cold as ice when she scoffed, "What? Are you backing down just because it's a bit tricky?"

"Not at all. It's just that we don't have the nerve to cross the Shepherd family," the man replied, completely unfazed by Summer's sarcasm.

Summer felt a wave of frustration. The last few people she'd hired had mysteriously failed, nearly exposing her in the process. It was her fault for underestimating the situation, thinking she could easily extract someone given Mirabella and James's special connection.

But now, with the situation practically serving itself up on a silver platter... Summer's lips curled into a sly smile. She brushed aside the question of why Mirabella was even allowed at the exchange conference and simply said to the person on the phone, "Since you're not up for it, let's just call it off."

And with that, she hung up without waiting for a reply.

If Mirabella was walking straight into trouble, that was on her.
