When fate plays its hand (Miranda)

Chapter 0759

Sam gestured for her to open the door.

A faint subtle scent wafted into her nostrils. It was a fresh mint fragrance that she loved.

The room was decorated in light tones. The walls were painted a warm off–white, and a plush fur rug was laid on the wooden floor, making each step feel comfortable and light.

Knowing that Miranda liked reading, Sam had thoughtfully added extra bookshelves along the wall. He put a reading chair next to a window near the bookshelves.

Gentle sunlight poured in through the floor–length windows, casting a soft light on the pages. It was a comforting and inviting scene to imagine.

There was a small side table beside the bed, a cozy–looking couch, and even a little end table for tea.

Miranda opened the curtains and found a private balcony outside. Looking out, she could see a tranquil scene of the blue sky, rolling hills, dark woods, and a wide expanse of grass.

“Do you like it?” Sam asked.

Miranda turned to look at him and nodded. “Thank you, I love it.”

With that, she turned back to the window. “It all feels like a dream right now. This is like… a fairy tale I read as a child. Cinderella becomes a princess and returns to the castle where she belongs.”

Miranda’s tone was light, and she looked calm. She was clearly pleasantly surprised by all of this yet not swept away by it.
