Christine had just received news that this year, 70% of the graduate funding at the college had been allocated to Sophie's research team, with the remainder going to hers.After accounting for various expenses, the portion she could actually use might be less than 20%.Over the years, due to a lack
Miranda had an idea, but before acting on it, she needed to wait a bit longer…She'd have to wait until the contract expired so she could proceed with the next steps.…One day, Miranda set out as usual, planning to head to the library. As she stepped out of her apartment building, she ran into Paul
Paul said, "You can use the lab at any time; there's no need to clock in daily. Just come whenever you're free."Miranda was currently working on digesting the stack of research papers Christine had given her and keeping up with the latest developments in her field. Now, with an official research pr
The first thing that caught everyone's attention was a pair of long legs encased in knee-high boots, leading up to a camel-colored coat over a white knit sweater.The woman was carrying an elephant-gray Hermès Picotin, exuding elegance and sophistication from head to toe.As soon as Elizabeth Lincol
Elizabeth didn't even bother to hide her aversion. The others hadn't expected her to be so uncooperative, and the atmosphere grew tense.Feeling the weight of an awkward glance, Bryan forced himself to step in and smooth things over. He said to Elizabeth, "Come on, you brat, I've already run predict
Soon, the dishes were brought to the table. Silas caught a whiff of the food, and his appetite was immediately piqued.He then picked up a piece of cajun chicken. The tender meat was dripping with a bit of sauce. "This is delicious!" he exclaimed. "I haven't had such authentic cajun chicken in a lo
At this moment, Sandy suddenly spoke up. "If it's a combined Bachelor's, Master's and Doctorate program, then Bedford College does have a few disciplines where that's possible, though the entry requirements are extremely high. Miranda, what was your undergraduate major?""Bioinformatics.""Faculty o
Paul's genes ensured both good looks and a decent figure. On top of that, judging by how generous he was with his gifts, he clearly wasn't just an ordinary college professor. He probably came from an affluent family. Elite families like his often went back several generations, which meant his rela
Since it was the end of the year, the students were all on holiday. The vast school grounds felt a little deserted. Dallas Urban, the school's security guard, noticed Lionel coming from a distance. He stepped out of the guard booth and greeted him cheerfully, "Mr. Sutton!" Then his gaze landed on
"There's still a pile of pots and pans in the kitchen waiting to be cleaned," Jenny complained."I'm just like a maid that's born to toil endlessly, unlike you who can enjoy such an easy life. "You should really learn from Lionel. He cooks every time they host a gathering. You two are brothers, but
"I'm cooking something," Paul said. "Why are you cooking this late at night?" Susan asked. "I wanted a midnight snack."Susan knew her son didn't normally eat late. Clearly, he was cooking for someone else. The thought worsened her mood. "When are you planning to come back to Elgerson?" she asked
Suddenly, Miranda stopped walking. She turned to face Paul and said seriously, "Thank you, Paul, for coming to Lumberville to spend Christmas with me. And… thank you for being in my life."Paul was slightly taken aback. Then, he gently squeezed her hand. "You dummy. I should be the one thanking you.
Yale wasn't too pleased. "But… I was just trying to clear the way for you. Am I wrong for doing that?"He couldn't help but feel a little wronged. Paul softened his tone and explained, "That's not what I meant. First off, Mom had already agreed to me coming to Lumberville. There was no need for lie
"Oh, you're back? What were you guys doing?" Lionel came out of the kitchen, still wearing his apron. He looked a little puzzled when he saw everyone gathered around Paul and Miranda. "Dad…" Miranda was about to go over with the shopping bags, but Paul had already taken them from her before she cou
Jenny's usage of the phrase, "real boyfriend", was quite interesting. As if Miranda even had a fake boyfriend before.Jack spoke up immediately. "Let me do the honors. This is Paul Jefferson, a professor at Bedford College's Faculty of Physics. He's the youngest leading figure in the country for the
A man stood at the entrance. He was tall and imposing, and he had a cold expression on his face. Miranda stood next to him and looked equally stoic. Jenny was taken aback. Shock flashed in her eyes as she asked, "You… Who are you?"Paul stepped forward confidently, still holding Miranda's hand. "I
