Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 871

Mira didn't keep them in the dorm for long before leading them back downstairs.

On the way, Sienna chimed in, "Someone in your dorm actually keeps a pet dog? We have one in ours, too. Is that girl's family loaded?"

Liora and Celine were equally curious about this.

"That would be Vanessa Voss. She's the heiress of the Voss family here in Aethelgard," Mira explained.

"No wonder. Does she pay that girl a salary?" Liora asked.

"I have no idea, but there are definitely perks involved," Mira replied.

"Is that other girl, Jillian, your dog?" Sienna asked bluntly.

"No," Mira said, shaking her head.

"She's my subordinate, at most. I never enslave my classmates. She works for me voluntarily, and I never treat her poorly."

Celine nodded. "We know exactly what kind of person Mira is."

Stepping out of the dorm building, Mira turned to them. "We'll skip the dining hall since we'll see it when we eat later. So, what's our next stop? The library, Sylvan Lake, or Abbott Tower?"

"Let's just take a quick glance at those places. We shouldn't delay hitting up the societies," Liora suggested.

"Let's grab some bikes. Walking takes way too long," Liora said, pointing to a row of bicycles nearby.

"Your school has bikes too? Mine has them as well," Celine noted.

"Mira, you're amazing for making things so convenient for everyone," Liora added.

"It's all about making life easier for others, which in turn makes it easier for me," Mira said with a smile.

"So we missed out on the business, and our grades still aren't as good as yours," Celine muttered.

"It's fine. We're only eighteen. The future holds infinite possibilities," Mira comforted.

"Harvey Rivers was the smart one. He stuck to Mira like glue, and now he's a huge boss, too," Liora observed.

"Harvey only got shares in my company because we used his family's property, Rivers Plaza," Mira corrected.

To run a business, she needed a home base, which was why she had been forced to acquire the Rivers family's office building. The Rivers family's sole condition for the sale was exchanging the real estate for equity; otherwise, there was no deal.

At the time, Mira's business was still in its infancy. She had just launched the bike-sharing program and was desperately burning through cash. It was a testament to the incredible foresight of the Rivers men.

Since then, Harvey had closely followed Mira's lead, learning from her while doing everything in his power to support her, both on campus and in the boardroom.

That was exactly why Mira was more than happy to have Harvey as both a friend and a business partner.
