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

The assistant next to him hadn't left yet. He rarely saw his boss with such an expression and couldn't help but glance at the computer screen. However, he couldn't make heads or tails of it and didn't dare to ask more.

Asa closed the laptop, pondering over the situation Ben had been in lately, and the recent news about the "incident" with the cheetah mentioned again by the assistant. He then told the assistant, "Go check if something happened on Ben's end."

The assistant nodded in acknowledgment.

Thanks to his connections, the assistant brought the information he had gathered early the next morning.

Asa had suspected something might have happened to Ben last night, and now his suspicions were confirmed, so his expression was rather grim. "You couldn't find out who did it?"

The assistant shook his head. "Right now, all we know is that Mr. Ben is incoherent, practically incapacitated. As for what exactly happened, we can't find out. I think someone doesn't want us to figure it out."

Asa's eyes narrowed slightly. After a moment, he said, "You're saying he's incoherent?"

"That's what the undercover sources found out," the assistant paused before adding, "How about we bring Mr. Ben back? Maybe we could help him recover at the base?"

"No need," Asa's voice was cool. "He can't be moved."

Whoever had incapacitated Ben could have easily killed him, but they chose only to incapacitate him. This indicated that the perpetrator was utterly confident, and attempting to move Ben would likely be more trouble than it was worth.

At that moment, Asa thought of someone and turned to the assistant, "Schedule a meeting with Santos for me."

At the school.

Mirabella didn't run into Lisa in the classroom. After asking her dorm mate, she learned that Lisa had gone to the girls' dormitory after lunch in the cafeteria.

When she arrived, Lisa was lying on her bed, looking listless not from illness but from being heavily burdened with worries.

Seeing Mirabella, Lisa seemed a bit uncomfortable.

With other roommates around, Mirabella simply raised an eyebrow and said, "Shall we find somewhere to talk?"

Lisa felt ashamed to face Mirabella, struggling internally before finally getting up from the bed.

They went to the school's sports field and casually sat down on some stone steps.

Lisa hung her head, hands clasped

Mirabella stretched her legs out on the steps, lazily glancing at Lisa, "And you skipped class for this?"

Lisa touched her nose, "I was too ashamed."

"I'm fine, aren't I?" Mirabella patted Lisa on the shoulder, "Don't blame yourself; it's not your fault."

Lisa gave a bitter smile and shook

"Crazy... What do you mean?" Lisa was momentarily stunned, "How could he go crazy?"

Mirabella just patted her shoulder again and stood up, "Anyway, you don't have to be afraid anymore."

Lisa looked at Mirabella, not yet understanding the meaning of her words.

It wasn't until she went home for the weekend and saw Ben again that she understood.
