The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella)

At that moment, Jules noticed something odd and quickly reached out to pluck a thin silver needle from the back of the chair where Kitty had been sitting.

When Kitty saw the needle in Jules's hand, her eyes widened in shock. "Where on earth did that come from?"

Jules pointed to the back of the chair, right at the spot where Kitty's neck had been resting. From the angle and the wound, it was obvious that the slender line of blood on her neck was caused by this needle.noveldrama

Kitty clutched her neck with one hand, her face a shade paler. "I've been sitting here for ages, how did a needle suddenly appear?"

Jules, still holding the needle and examining it closely, glanced over at the spot where Mirabella had been earlier. Trying to suppress his disbelief, he said softly, "Maybe it was Miss Mira, or possibly her bodyguard."

Though it was unclear how someone could silently harm another with a needle, it didn't mean such a skill didn't exist.

Pausing for a moment and not waiting for Kitty to respond, Jules added, "But I'm leaning towards it being Miss Mira's bodyguard, probably as a warning to you, ma'am."

Hearing Jules's analysis, Kitty's eyes turned cold. "A warning for me? How naive. Do they even realize where they are, messing with the Cunningham and Blake families?"

Even if that bodyguard seemed tough, could one person really stand against two powerful families?

Jules lowered his eyes, thinking about the hotel manager's earlier attitude, his expression still tense. He suggested, "Still, it might be best to steer clear of any conflict with Miss Delilah's family, especially since we need Miss Mira to treat Donald."

Kitty glanced at Jules, who seemed suddenly cautious around her sister's family, and frowned. "What's going on with you, Jules? What are you afraid of? You've been boosting their confidence since we got here."

Jules looked up at Kitty, ready to speak. "It's not fear... just thinking it's better to avoid trouble. I believe Miss Delilah's family..."

Kitty didn't want to hear more about Delilah and quickly raised her hand to cut him off. "Enough, no more of that. Just get me to the hospital."

She felt the pain in her neck intensifying.

Seeing this, Jules had no choice but to swallow his words and nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, downstairs at the hotel entrance...

Austin chased after Mirabella and Delilah, almost reaching them when two of Atlas's men blocked his way.

He tried to push past them, but it was no use. Unbothered by the people passing through the lobby, he yelled toward Delilah's retreating figure, "Sis, I just want a quick chat, just a few minutes."

The driver had already brought the car around, and Mirabella, hearing Austin's voice from behind, didn't pause as she opened the car door. Once it was open, she looked back at Delilah.

Receiving her daughter's look, Delilah straightened her back almost instantly, making her stance clear. "I'm not going."

With that, she quickly got into the car.

Mirabella raised an eyebrow and then bent down to get in as well.

Seeing this, Austin shouted a few more times, but the car doors had already closed, keeping his voice out.

Soon, the car drove away from the hotel, and with its departure, Atlas's men stopped blocking Austin and left.

Austin stood there, muttering curses under his breath in frustration.
