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

Chapter 1636

Grady quickly pulled himself together and sighed, "It's all ancient history.

Chester's just the kind of guy who loves to reminisce. Otherwise, he'd probably have a bustling family by now, just like your parents."

Mirabella raised an eyebrow. "So Chester's a bit of a romantic, huh?"

Grady chuckled, not offering much more. "What's got you so curious about Chester today, Miss Mira?"

"I'm just intrigued by him," Mirabella said, tapping her knee thoughtfully. Chester had been a fixture on her phone for ages, so it made sense to learn a bit more about him.

Grady grinned, "You'll get to meet him in person tomorrow."

"Yeah," Mirabella nodded, already planning not to show up empty-handed.

They chatted a bit more until they heard voices outside, and then a young guy named Shawn came in with a food box.

After setting it down, Shawn quietly left the room.

Grady opened the box and handed Mirabella a fork. "Things can get a bit hectic around Merrywoods. Maybe tell your friends and the professor to stay put and not wander around too much."

Mirabella thanked him, remembering the long line of cars she'd seen that morning on her way to school. She nodded, "Got it."
