Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back

"These are..."

Mia chuckled as she replied, "The butler insisted on it."

Miranda nodded knowingly. Of course, professionals did everything differently. She turned to look at Mia, standing demurely beside her in a maid's outfit.

Mia had a naturally youthful face, and in that maid outfit, she looked as adorable as a porcelain doll.

"This outfit... maybe try another color next time?"

The classic black and white maid attire always struck Miranda as a bit off.

Mia glanced at her dress. "What color do you prefer, Miss?"

Miranda thought for a moment. Little girls often loved pink, right? "Pink, perhaps."

"Sure thing, Miss," Mia replied sweetly.

After finishing her meal, Miranda headed out. She wasn't driving herself; her car was still on its way and wouldn't arrive for a few more days.

Just as she left the estate and was about to hit the main road, she caught sight of a car that looked oddly familiar. "A Maserati?" she murmured, eyebrows furrowing.

She had barely recognized the car when the window rolled down, and a hand waved enthusiastically. "Hey, it's me! We meet again!"

The hand belonged to a silver-haired young man who grinned widely.

Miranda sighed. What was this guy doing here?

"Why are you still here?"

Carter chuckled and uttered, "I'm waiting for you, of course."

"For what purpose?" Miranda asked, puzzled.

Carter replied, "I knew you'd be heading out eventually, so I waited here. It's been two days, you know. Didn't expect you'd stay in so long. You have no idea how I've gone through these two days. I've been surviving on takeout, just in case I missed you."

Miranda's face was a picture of confusion.

Carter continued, "You need a ride, right? I can take you wherever you're going."

"You've been waiting just to give me a ride?" Miranda asked, incredulous.

Carter's eyes flickered with innocence. "Yep!"

He added, "I've got nothing better to do, nor do I know what I should do. I

Since her car wasn't here yet, and she was a bit curious to hear more of his stories, she walked over, opened the car door, and slid into the back seat.

At the sight of her getting in, Carter's face lit up with a big smile as he started the engine. "Where are you headed?" he asked while driving.

Miranda gave him an address. "Velvet Ridge."

Upon hearing the name, Carter paused for a moment. "That place..."

It was known for housing some pretty important people. Although Carter grew up abroad, he spent a lot of time in Ardenza and had heard about Velvet Ridge. "What's with the place?" Miranda asked, noticing his unfinished sentence.

Carter shook his head. "Nothing. What are you going there for? Just heard the people living there are quite influential."

Miranda subtly raised an eyebrow. This kid really couldn't keep things to himself. Most people wouldn't pry this much.

"Some business, of course," she replied.

Carter sulked, "Oh, so you won't tell me then?"

Miranda said, "What else did you expect?"

Carter pursed his lips. "Petty."

Miranda was rendered speechless.
