Chapter 429
“Haha, really? Congratulations on finally meeting your match p>
“Bro, you’re laughing? Whose side are you on p>
“My junior’s, obviously. We’re family p>
“We’ve been buddies for years, and you have the nerve to say that p>
“I do, I absolutely do! Hahaha p>
Dominic rubbed his temples.
“Do you want to know why she actually got in my car and tried to be nice p>
“Why p>
“She wanted me to teach her advanced hacking. When I said no, she just flat-out ignored me.
Right before she got out, she told me to consider being her friend because it would be a highly profitable investment p>
“Hahaha! That is absolutely Mira’s style p>
Owen laughed, easily picturing Dominic looking utterly defeated.
“Hahaha, and she wasn’t lying. Being friends with her is a very solid investment p>
The next day, as soon as her final exam was over, Mira rushed to meet Mr. Lawson, the core of her mentor’s intelligence network in Aethelgard. She brought him Melvion City’s specialty sweet wine and premium white tea.
Although her mentor pulled all the strings here, maintaining excellent relationships with his trusted subordinates was crucial.
She had given Owen a set yesterday, and she needed two more for tonight’s visit to the Quinn family-one for Sebastian Quinn and one for Eleanor Quinn. She couldn’t care less about the rest of the Quinns.
Blood relation or not, Mira had zero interest in sucking up to people who didn’t genuinely care about her.
Sebastian was thrilled with the gifts, feeling profound validation that saving her and swapping the babies all those years ago had been completely worth it.
Even though Mara was eventually found, his biological niece had still received seventeen years of elite education and a carefree life.
Eleanor Quinn was even more overjoyed to see her granddaughter and desperately wanted Mira to stay another night. But Mira couldn’t keep Mr. Harth waiting.
Besides, she had to get back to school.
During this visit, Mira quietly slipped Eleanor a pill she had
requested Pecifically o
from her mentors
instructing her grandmother to take it in exactly three years.
“Will this give me a few more years of life? My granddaughter truly is the best p>
Given the terrifying airplane incident last time, Mr. Harth insisted they all take the train back. It was slower, but infinitely safer.
On the train, Harvey Rivers leaned over to Mira. “Because of Roxanne and Mara’s little espionage scandal the government got spooked that the properties built by Perter Entertainment wouldn’t sell. They’ve completely reopened the bidding process p>
It seemed her rebirth was aggressively rewriting history.
In her previous life, Mara’s corporate sabotage had remained a buried secret, and Shane Porter had effortlessly secured the massive contract.
Backed by the Bennett family, Porter Entertainment had skyrocketed in power. Right before Mira died, they had become the undisputed top powerhouse in Melvion City.
No wonder the Mercer Group was eventually swallowed whole and met such a horrific end.
“Do you think the Porters can win the bid this time p>
“Impossible.
They’re drowning in a massive trust crisis. If the government still planned to use them, they wouldn’t have bothered reopening the bid p>
“Do you think the Mercer Group will take it p>
“Highly unlikely. If I had to guess, the government will go with a third party.
The Mercers might be the victims here, but it exposed catastrophic flaws in their internal security Plus their PR has been taking a massive beating lately. Their reputation is garbage p>
“So your family is just going to sweep in and reap the benefits p>
