Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back

Carter quickly dropped Miranda off at Velvet Ridge.

Despite the quaint name, the place was guarded by armed soldiers. Carter couldn't drive his car inside, so Miranda had to get out at the gate.

From a distance, one could see the estate was composed of multiple Mystoria- style gardens and courtyards.

Carter couldn't help but wonder, "Can you even get in?"

The residents here were mostly families of high-ranking military and political figures; not just anyone could walk in. It was one of the most heavily secured areas in all of Virell.

Carter, naturally, had no clearance to enter. He didn't know Miranda's background, so he was unsure if she could get in either.

Miranda stepped out of the car confidently. "We'll find out once I go and ask."

Carter was left speechless.

"Oh, by the way, I'm not paying for the ride," Miranda called back as she walked towards the gate.

"Hello, I'm here to see Mr. Larry Ashcroft."

She approached the guards, gave her name, and was immediately allowed through.

"Hello, Mr. Ashcroft has instructed us to bring you in as soon as you arrive. Please, follow me."

Not only was she allowed in, but someone was also assigned to escort her. As Carter watched this unfold, his curiosity about Miranda's identity grew even stronger.

He leaned against his Maserati, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

"Who exactly is Miranda?" he mumbled to himself, pulling out his phone.

Initially, he just wanted to see if he could find anything about Miranda online. After all, it wasn't every day one could learn about someone just by typing their name into a search engine.

But surprisingly, he did find something. What started as a casual search turned into an hour-long deep dive into juicy gossip.

"No way she's that impressive? This can't be real. Oh man, that's rough. Huh? That's quite a twist."

...

Meanwhile, Miranda had already arrived at Larry's residence. The butler greeted her warmly as she walked in.noveldrama

Larry stood up with a broad smile. "Ah, Miranda, you've arrived."

Miranda returned the greeting with a smile. "Mr. Ashcroft."

She barely started, and four more gentlemen stood up from the couch. The sudden appearance of the four people startled Miranda, leaving her greetings unfinished.

Larry chuckled, introducing them, "This is Grandpa Paisley, this is Grandpa Zade,

this is Grandpa Marsh, and this is Grandpa Dempsey."

Silent, Miranda offered a polite smile and nodded at each of them. The four gentlemen scrutinized her with curiosity, exchanging glances with

another.

The Guardians were all dressed in sharp suits, though compared to Mr. Ashcroft, their complexions were somewhat sallow.

Yet they still radiated a certain vigor, though it seemed to be waning.

"These gentlemen here, they are my old comrades," Larry explained with a grin.

"Hello," Miranda greeted them sweetly.

Perhaps they'd heard many stories about her from Larry, because after sizing her up, they seemed intrigued and even fond of the young lady before them due to her good behavior.

"Hello, hello, Mira, come have a seat," Mr. Paisley said warmly.

Mr. Zade followed up, "We heard you helped cure Larry's ailment. Can you help others too?"

"Yeah, that condition isn't easy to treat. Do you think you could take a look at us as well?" Mr. Marsh asked hesitantly.
