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

As Mirabella stepped outside, the wail of sirens filled the air as ambulances rushed into the school campus. It wasn't long before teachers emerged, carrying students who had succumbed to the overwhelming stress and anxiety, with paramedics quickly attending to them.

That kind of scene played out almost every year in schools across the region.

Mirabella diverted her gaze and continued heading out. The security guard at the gate had already let her through. As she stepped outside, a group of anxious parents immediately approached her, asking, "How tough was the exam?"

Mirabella paused briefly before replying, "It was manageable, I guess."

One parent, noticing her calm demeanor, quickly concluded, "So, it wasn't too hard then." This sentiment rippled through the nearby parents who overheard the exchange, bringing them a wave of relief. The thought that the exam wasn't too difficult brought them some comfort.

Little did they know, the student they casually questioned was actually a top-tier academic ace.

Mirabella nodded at the parent and then spotted Shawn and Delilah, her parents, waving at her from a distance. Without further delay, she headed towards them.

"Did I see ambulances heading into the school? Was someone feeling unwell?" Delilah asked, more concerned about her daughter's well-being than the exam itself.

"Yeah, it was the stress," Mirabella replied.

Understanding, Delilah nodded and gently squeezed her daughter's arm. "Let's go, we need to get you something hearty to eat."

Mirabella raised an eyebrow at her mother's suggestion.

The family soon left the exam venue, and as other students began to exit, their expressions starkly contrasted Mirabella's relaxed one. Their first words to their parents were about the daunting difficulty of this year's exams, including those to the parents who had spoken to Mirabella.

"Really? That tough? But the first student who came out said it was okay," one confused parent remarked.

Their child, an above-average student, nearly broke into tears, "It was really hard. Just ask anyone else. Nobody found it easy."

The parent was puzzled but later rationalized that maybe the girl they asked didn't want to admit she found it challenging and thus had downplayed the difficulty.

The next day's exams were in Arts and Sciences in the morning and French in the afternoon. The Arts and Sciences exam was straightforward, not as intricate as Literature or as complex as Math, making it somewhat less challenging for those with good memory and understanding.

After the final French exam, Mirabella exited the school gates, taking a rare reflective look back at the school. The two-day final exams were finally over.

The results would be released in about twenty days-a waiting game.

Reuniting with her parents and heading towards the parking lot, Delilah handed Mirabella her phone, saying, "Oh, you got a bunch of messages on Messenger." Unlocking her phone and opening Messenger, Mirabella saw a message from a professor at Prestige College inquiring about her Physics department. She rubbed her temples before replying.

Once in the car, she started replying to others who had asked about her exams. Midway through, a call from Mr. Hammond popped up.

Sitting up straight, Mirabella answered the call.

"Mirabella, do you remember Professor Wade I mentioned before?" Mr. Hammond got straight to the point.noveldrama

Mirabella hummed in acknowledgment.

"Well, he's asked for your Messenger contact, and I've already forwarded your details to him. Make sure to accept his request, okay?"
