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
Miranda didn't call him "Dr. Jefferson" like she usually would. She continued, "I'm really glad that you care about my feelings, but we're now a couple who are building an intimate relationship. We would need to spend a lot of time together, so we should be honest with each other. "No coaxing nor
"Okay," Paul said.Soon after, he brought her to Luxus Emporium. Standing in the massive shopping mall, Miranda blinked in surprise as she stared at the lavish storefronts of luxury brands. "This is where you wanted to bring me?""Yes." The next moment, he pulled out a black card and handed it to h
"Hansel, stop right there!" A fashionable young woman chased after Hansel near an escalator in the mall. Hansel had reached the foot of the escalator. He stopped in his tracks and turned toward her impatiently. "Frances, I've made myself very clear. Don't make things awkward for everyone." Frances
The two of them entered the shop. Paul raised an eyebrow. "Are you buying a fishing rod?"Miranda simply replied, "I'm just looking."However, her browsing turned into a purchase. "Miss, you've got great taste! Our Carpenter fishing rods are not only high-performance but also incredibly stylish. T
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
