Chapter 487 

Collins tapped on his conversation with Mirabella, scanning for any irregularities. Finding none, he casually remarked, “My Messenger’s working just fine. Why don’t you send another message to double–check?” 

Mirabella responded by sending an emoji, which, to her frustration, bounced back, “Looks like I’m on your 

block list.” 

The mention of being blocked suddenly reminded her of a certain goofball she had blocked on her own Messenger list. 

“Blocked? Why on earth would I block you…” Collins began with a chuckle, shaking his head in disbelief as he navigated to his settings and checked the block list. His speech trailed off abruptly when he spotted Mirabella’s nickname among the blocked contacts 

Holy smokes, this was some kind of witchcraft! Since when had he ever blocked Mirabella

Rubbing his eyes, Collins began to suspect he’d stumbled into the most bizarre mystery of the year. quickly unblocked her. 

“Mirabella, I swear I had no idea you were blocked. I would never do such a low–down thing.” Collins explained with utmost seriousness. After all, it was more likely for Leo to end up on that list than Mirabella.

Mirabella, although baffled, decided not to dwell on the issue. “No biggie. I should be able to get out of tomorrow morning’s shoot. I’ll ask for a personal day” 

“Alright, I’ll swing by and pick you up at nine,” Collins said:

On the other end, Mirabella sent a text to Annette, asking for a day off 

Given her stellar academic record and Annette’s impression of her as a particularly well–behaved student, Annette didn’t hesitate to approve the request, even without a reason provided in the message.

James, busy serving Mirabella some food, took his time responding. Finally, he set down the utensils and looked up at Asher. “I’ll pass on the drink, thanks,” James said coolly. 

Asher’s hand stiffened around his wine glass, his smile freezing in place. After a few awkward seconds, his voice came out a bit parched. “Water, then. Wateris fine.”
