Chapter 1174

Author: Baby X
Xena bit her lip, her eyes shimmering with tears. They were tears of excitement, of relief, of gratitude. She looked up at Peter and said, “You don’t have to wait until seven. I can answer you right now. I’m willing.”

Peter smiled in satisfaction. “Good. You do have what it takes to be my woman.”

Then he pulled a key card from his pocket and set it on the table. “Tonight. Ten o’clock. Presidential suite at this hotel. I’ll see you then.”

Xena stared at the key card, then at Peter’s retreating

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 1574

    Miranda did not say anything.She let him hold her hand.Maybe it was because the moment felt too peaceful, and she didn’t want to ruin his mood.The warmth of his palm seeped into hers, carrying a heat that felt almost too intense.For a moment, time seemed to stop.Two minutes later, Miranda moved her fingers slightly and said in a low voice, “I need to give Mia a bath.”Only then did Felix slowly let go.His fingertips brushed over the back of her hand as if reluctant to leave.“Okay,” he said with a low smile.The two of them returned to the living room one after the other.Mia knew it was getting late too, so she finally stopped trying to keep playing. She waved at Felix.“Daddy, Mommy and I are going upstairs now.”“Go ahead,” Felix said, smiling gently at her.He, however, seemed to want to stay in the living room a little longer.Miranda gave Mia a bath, then went to take a shower herself.By the time she returned to the bedroom, Mia had already fallen asleep on

    The room quieted down.Miranda let out a soft sigh, then crouched again and continued unpacking the rest of the clothes, hanging them neatly in the closet.Down in the garden, Mia and Sienna were blowing bubbles on the lawn.Felix walked over with a ball in his hand. The stretch of grass was clearly meant for families to relax and play with their children.When Miranda heard Mia’s laughter, she walked out to the balcony and leaned lightly against the railing, watching her adorable little figure below.Felix was playing soccer with her.The sight of father and daughter laughing together looked especially warm and beautiful.Mrs. Gibson Sr. and Susan were on the second floor of the other villa, enjoying the breeze and the view. When they saw Felix and Mia below, they smiled too.Dinner was served at the resort restaurant.Outside the windows, there was a beautifully designed garden with flowing water. The dishes were delicate and delicious, and the atmosphere was relaxed and ple

    Only then did Felix quickly turn back to Mia and see her little cheeks puffed up in annoyance.He smiled gently.“I’m listening.”After dinner, Felix drove Miranda’s car and took them home.That night, he got a call from Sienna. She had already started making the arrangements.Miranda looked up the private mountain resort as well. It was tucked deep in the mountains and catered mostly to wealthy guests looking for a quiet weekend getaway. The natural environment looked excellent.The drive was about one hundred twenty miles.Their plans were soon finalized. They would leave on Friday afternoon and return on Monday morning.Miranda arranged her work schedule too.On Friday afternoon, a discreet line of six cars left the city and headed toward the mountains.Along the way, Mia was like a happy little bird. She pressed herself against the window, staring out at the untouched scenery and asking one question after another. Felix answered all of them patiently.Miranda rode in the

    Coco looked at Miranda’s calm face and suddenly felt that, even though they were around the same age, Miranda had already been through far too much.She still remembered Miranda from their student days.Back then, Miranda had been bright, beautiful, and untouched by life’s harder edges.Someone like Miranda must have once loved with her whole heart, fiercely and purely.But the divorce had left her wounded.Now, when it came to marriage, she was much more rational. She had learned to think things through and weigh what she stood to gain or lose.This version of Miranda was stronger.And somehow, that made her even more heartbreaking.If Felix truly loved Miranda, did a marriage certificate really matter that much?After all, Miranda’s life was simple. Aside from her career, she only cared about Mia. She didn’t play games, lead people on, or depend on anyone.More importantly, she wasn’t the kind of woman who needed marriage to prove her worth.Even if she never remarried, Mi

    Miranda walked over to the cabinet and took out her phone.Sure enough, there was a message from Felix from half an hour ago.“I had the hotel send over something for you to eat. You should get some energy back. See you tonight.”Miranda replied, “Thank you.”Felix answered almost immediately.“Did you just come out of the lab?”He must have guessed that she had left her phone in the office.“Yes. I just came out.”“Okay. Go eat first.”Felix didn’t bother her again.Miranda replied with a smiley emoji, then sat down on the couch.After Coco took out the desserts, she immediately picked up a macaron and took a bite. Her eyes narrowed in happiness.“Oh my God, this is so good. Miranda, following you around really does come with benefits.”Miranda laughed at her and picked up a small sandwich.“Then eat more. I can’t finish all this by myself.”“Miranda, be honest with me. Are you and Mr. Gibson getting married again?” Coco asked bluntly.In the lab, only Coco and Adrian

    That afternoon, the HR manager personally interviewed the candidate Wesley had recommended.The young woman sitting across from him was named Yara White. She was twenty-four years old, with a master’s degree in finance from a top university overseas. She was beautiful, sweet-looking, and qualified in every area they required.Before the interview, the HR manager had received a call from Wesley, so he understood what Wesley was trying to do.As it happened, the executive office needed an assistant to handle meeting minutes and daily document organization. The work itself was fairly basic, but the position had broad exposure.It wouldn’t look too deliberate, but it would still give her a legitimate reason to enter the core office area and come into contact with senior management.Clearly, Wesley had thought this through carefully before making the arrangement.After all, ever since Felix took over, he had strictly warned all senior executives not to abuse their authority for person

    The trees rustled softly in the wind. Felix narrowed his eyes and did not answer right away.Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly. “Something urgent came up at the office. Let’s talk another day.”Leo nodded. “Alright.”Watching Felix get into his car and dr

    Sienna looked up in shock. “Are you saying she went to Hamilton on a date with someone else?”“I ran into them at the military medical hospital with Felix,” Xena said quietly. “That man treated Miranda very well. They were all touchy with each other, like a couple.”Sienna’s eyes widened. “So Mira

    At this moment, Mike was openly presenting himself as Miranda’s boyfriend. He couldn’t see her expression, but she didn’t object. That alone felt like tacit consent.Felix was seated by the window, in the same row as Miranda. His gaze drifted in their direction, dark and unreadable.After sitting
