Miranda had no idea what Paul and Christine discussed in the study, but she wasn't just sitting around. During that time, she and Olivia prepared meat filling together and made nearly a hundred meatballs to freeze for later.Olivia said, "Great! Dr. Young loves the filling you make, and these will b
Paul said, "No one ever mentioned it in front of me."Christine said, "Well, no wonder. Back then, you were juggling biology and teaching yourself physics. You were basically doing the work of two people. And on top of that, you were working on projects with both your mentors after class. Who had th
When Paul mentioned "Emilia," Miranda immediately knew he must've figured it out. After a moment of thought, she guessed Christine must have said something to him last night.She turned to look at him with a faint smile. "Yeah, I know."He stared at her quizzically. "Aren't you curious about what it
Paul said, "Let me give you an example…"At these words, the students instinctively straightened up.Here it came. The first part had been all theory but now was the real point.At that moment, Paul had moved to the aisle in the middle of the lecture hall. He stopped, then suddenly pointed to a spot
After lunch, Paul and Miranda took a stroll down the campus's tree-lined path. Along the way, they ran into Christine, who was on her way back to the lab after lunch. "Miranda!""Dr. Young.""I rarely see you around campus. What's going on? Didn't you head to the lab today?" Christine asked.Mirand
Miranda stood in plain view of Paul as he quickly cleaned up the kitchen before heading into the bedroom.The master bedroom had a projector with outstanding performance. She had previously used it to watch the Global Academic Exchange Conference with him.But last time, she had to sit on the carpet
The mood was perfect that night, but the timing seemed off. Paul never got the answer to his question. Miranda adjusted her clothes and flexed her sore hands before turning to look at the man on the bed. "I'm going home."After a few seconds, Paul sat up. "I'll walk you…""No need," Miranda interru
Paul said, "You told me to light the candle, so I did…"Miranda raised an eyebrow at his words. She was no longer in a hurry to leave. "And then?"Paul remained silent. "Turns out there was a surprise, right?" Miranda sighed with a smile on her face. She acted as if it didn't bother her at all. "W
Under Susan's gaze, Jenny felt a chill run down her spine. "You… Why are you acting so weird? Are you mute? You don't look like it from how you're dressed."She shot Susan a glare and muttered, "Crazy woman," before heading back into her apartment building. Susan stayed rooted to the spot. Her face
They made it back from the school to Harold's place just in time for dinner. After dinner, Lionel and his family said their goodbyes. Upon seeing this, Leonard's family made their exit right after. Jenny walked them to the door before collapsing onto the couch, clutching her lower back. "What a ti
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
