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

Chapter 1663

Jim had just settled back in the living room when Mirabella and Grady made their way downstairs. The mansion was enormous, and after a casual half-hour stroll, they had only managed to explore a third of it.

As they approached, Grady noticed a rare sparkle of joy in Keir's eyes- something he hadn't seen since Nellie passed away. Even though Keir had been happy to meet Miss Mira earlier, this joy seemed deeper, more genuine. Grady glanced thoughtfully at the butler, wondering if this unexpected happiness was tied to someone Keir had just met. Unaware of Grady's thoughts, Jim waved his niece over, inviting her to sit. "So, what do you think, kiddo?"

Mirabella blinked in awe. "It's magnificent!"

This was the essence of high society. Walking through the house, she felt even the air was infused with the scent of wealth.
