Chapter 315
Mirabella carefully packed the gleaming trophy into her suitcase. The sight of it made her lips curve into a smile
by reflex. Her grandmom Catherine would be over the moon with this trophy.
After packing, Mirabella wheeled her suitcase out of her room.
Before long, the group hailed a taxi and sped off to the airport. With an hour left before their flight, Mirabella
stepped away to take a call from Nick in the waiting area. “Nick, | told you, you didn’t need to cseeoff,”
she said, maintaining a distance.
Nick chuckled ruefully as he looked at his sister standing afar. “Do we really need to talk this far apart, Mira?”
She touched her nose sheepishly.
Nick stepped closer, and as he gazed into his little sister's bright eyes, he felt a tug at his heartstrings. He raised
his hand to her head and ruffled her hair gently. “We're siblings, Mira. There's no need for distance.”

Mirabella, who was used to being the one doing the patting, was taken aback. She thought Nick didn’t like being
close to others? Dit, she got played by Zach!
Meanwhile, Zach, halfway across the world, sneezed unexpectedly and felt a mysterious chill down his spine.
After chatting to Nick for twenty minutes or so, Mirabella glanced at her watch. “Nick, try to visit hwhen you
can,” she suggested.
He paused, then looked down and softly agreed, “Sure.” His mind seemed to be
elsewhere.
Mirabella didn’t press further. “You should head back now, Nick. I'm about to board.”
“Alright, safe travels. Textwhen you get home,” Nick said slowly.
With a nod, Mirabella returned to the departure gate.
After standing alone for a few moments, Nick sighed softly, his breath fading into the airport hustle. He turned
and left, his footsteps echoing faintly behind him.
