Chapter 530 For a brief moment, Johnny stiffened, his expression frozen as ice. But his ability to adapt was sharp as a tack, and faced with Mirabella’s chilly demeanor, he swallowed the pleasantries he'd prepared. “I apologize for the intrusion,” he said, his tone stripped of any displeasure and instead laden with sincere contrition.
Under normal circumstances, had anyone else spoken to him that way, he would've told them to hit the road without a second thought. But Mirabella... she was different, someone he couldn't afford to offend.
Delilah and Shavn, standing by, exchanged a look of surprise. From the moment Johnny had walked through their door, the couple sensed that he was no ordinary visitor. Despite his polite attempts to keep it under wraps, he carried an air of authority. It was clear he was someone of importance.
And now, this man was apologizing to their daughter... That was odd, indeed.

Delilah seemed poised to speak, but Shawn gently pressed her hand, giving her a look that said, ‘Not now, and shook his head slightly. She understood and settled back on the couch.
Mirabella didn’t notice her parents‘ exchange of glances, her own gaze still fixed on Johnny. “If you need anything in the future, you can contactdirectly.” Johnny caught her drift immediately. She probably didn’t appreciate him dropping by and involving her family.
He let out a silent sigh of relief, grateful that he hadn't said too much to the Davis family or revealed anything about the healing matters. Given Owen's delicate situation, the less people knew about his illness, the better.
“| failed to consider. Please don’t take it to heart, Ms. Mirabella,” he apologized once more, the politeness in his voice unwavering. “Sure,” Mirabella responded lightly, her tone softened by the presence of her attentive mother nearby. She couldn't let her guise of the dutiful daughter slip.
Feeling the slight thaw in her attitude, Johnny allowed himself to relax a fraction. While he could afford to be dismissive with the likes of the Reeves family, he knew E3t he had to be genuinely courteous with this young girl who held Owen's health in her hands.
Mirabella glanced at the clock and then addressed Johnny again. “Do you have any other business?” Her intent to dismiss him was clear.
“No, | just cto drop these off,” Johnny replied, pausing for a beat. He looked at Mirabella. “Would you be available for another check-up in a couple of days?” Mirabella turned out to be surprisingly accommodating. “That's fine.” Hearing this, Johnny breathed a sigh of relief and then said, “We'll be in touch then. | won't keep you any longer.
| should be going.” After a brief farewell, he nodded respectfully to Shawn and Delilah, who were still seated, and quickly made his way out. Shawn, ever the polite host, stood and followed Johnny to the door, seeing him out with a courteous goodbye.

Once Johnny had left, Delilah turned back to her daughter and motioned for Mirabella to join her by patting the couch beside her. Mirabella, with a hand to her forehead, walked over and sat down.
Sweetheart,” Delilah began, her curiosity piqued,"who is Mr. Johnny,and why did he come here to thank you?"
He had mentioned his gratitude upon arrival but hadn't elaborated on the reasons behind it. Delilah had overheard something about a 'consultation fee," but the specifics of what that entailed were lost on her.
