Chapter 171

작가: Baby X
After a quick word with James, Miranda took a cab home.

Not long after, she received a LinkedIn request from Ben, the deputy director of DE Corporation. He followed it with a message, hoping they could connect directly about future research directions. Miranda replied politely, exchanging a few brief notes with him.

Around four o’clock in the afternoon, Miranda strolled toward Mia’s school. She paused beneath a row of cherry blossom trees, scrolling through her phone. Across the street, a sil

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 1602

    Those two words were simple, but any adult would understand what they could imply, especially two people who had once been married.Ever since Mia was born, “You awake?” had become something they often texted each other at night.Sometimes Miranda was the one who asked.Sometimes Felix was.Just then, another message came through silently. It was Felix, adding another line.“I didn’t mean it like that. I was just asking. Don’t get the wrong idea.”Miranda’s finger hovered over the screen for a few seconds before she finally replied.“Still awake.”His reply came almost instantly.“Come over for a bit?”Miranda frowned and sent him a question mark.“?”“My living room,” he replied directly.Then another message came in.“Have a drink with me. We can talk about tomorrow’s partnership with DE.”Miranda saw through him at once.She was not eighteen anymore.She was twenty-eight.He couldn’t fool her with that kind of excuse.“A drink is fine. Work can wait. I don’t want

    “Okay,” Miranda answered softly.For the rest of the drive, she kept her face turned toward the window, her thoughts too complicated to put into words.Fortunately, the school was not far. When they arrived at the pickup area, plenty of luxury cars and SUVs were already parked there, all waiting for the children to be dismissed.“Mira,” Felix suddenly called her by her nickname.Her heartbeat, which had only just calmed down, faltered again.Felix looked at her seriously.“Will you think about the partnership with DE?”He sounded almost as if he were asking for her permission.Then he let out a quiet sigh.“I won’t push you. I just don’t want you to shut me out completely anymore. Whether it’s as Mia’s father or as someone who wants to support your research.”Of course, if he could have one more role in her life, that would be even better.Miranda pressed her lips together. Her rational side slowly returned.When it came to research, if a better platform appeared, she had t

    But Miranda still hadn’t fully gotten past that barrier in her heart.Especially now that their relationship was being redefined, too many financial ties would only make it harder for her to decide what path she wanted to take.Whenever work was involved, every choice Felix offered her seemed to have only one possible answer.Felix looked at the slight crease between her brows. His gaze settled quietly on her face, and for a moment, the car fell silent.“Do you feel like accepting the partnership with DE is the same as accepting me?” Felix suddenly asked.He had clearly seen through what she was thinking.Miranda said nothing.At some point, without her realizing it, his resources and support had become woven into almost everything she had achieved.Only now, looking back, did she realize how much of his presence had been behind it all.Felix suddenly reached out and gently covered the hand resting on her knee.His palm was warm and steady.Miranda froze slightly, but she di

    Miranda brought the conversation back to work.“Ask around and find out the exact price of the equipment. We can consider buying it.”A nine-figure budget was definitely more than they had planned for.Even with Felix’s massive investment behind them, it was still not a small expense. That money was meant to support the overall operation of the lab and their existing research projects. Adding such a major equipment purchase out of nowhere would still put a lot of pressure on them.“Miranda, this equipment is critical to our research,” Adrian said. “It could be the key to breaking through our current bottleneck. Should I go talk to Mr. Gibson myself?”Miranda stopped him at once.“Not yet. He’s busy every day too. Let’s not trouble him with lab matters.”Adrian nodded in understanding.“Got it. I’ll ask around first.”Miranda knew very well that she already owed Felix a lot.She didn’t want to owe him even more.That was why this equipment left her so conflicted.Of course,

    Yara packed up the few personal items she had at her desk.Her face had been burning ever since she received the news. Being suddenly transferred like this made her feel as if she were something embarrassing that Felix had rejected at a single glance.She had been spoiled by her family since she was little. When had she ever been treated like this?If it had been any other man, she wouldn’t have spared him another thought.But if that man was Felix Gibson, then there was nothing she could say.Holding the box in her arms, Yara stepped into the elevator, her eyes filled with defeat and unwillingness.She kept replaying what Melanie had said.Felix didn’t like having female assistants around him.Why?Did Felix have some strange preference when it came to hiring?Or was Miranda just that possessive and controlling? Had she forced him not to use female assistants? Did she clear away any woman who might get close to him?Yara couldn’t help wondering what kind of spell Miranda ha

    “Can I ask whose decision this was?” Yara asked, gathering her courage.“It came from higher up.”“Who exactly higher up?” Yara pressed.With Wesley’s connection behind her, she didn’t believe just anyone would dare move her out of this position.“Ms. White, I’m guessing this came from Mr. Gibson himself. Please cooperate with the reassignment.”Yara’s face heated at once.Had she done something wrong today?Had Felix personally ordered her transfer?But a man like Felix was so far above her. He probably hadn’t even remembered who she was. How could he have had her moved so quickly?Unwilling to accept it, Yara called her aunt, Melanie.Melanie was shocked too.“What? You’ve only been there a week, and they’re already transferring you?”“Aunt Melanie, can you ask Uncle Wesley to check with HR? He knows the HR director, right? Could he find out what happened?” Yara pleaded. “I really like this position.”Melanie had arranged for Yara to enter Gibson Corporation because she

    “You don’t need to give me an answer now. You have three months to think about it.” Felix said this quietly, then turned and walked away.Miranda didn’t press the elevator button. Her thoughts drifted back to the last experiment she did two years ago.It was the one she conducted in an underground

    Leo noticed the way Miranda flipped her phone over. Something about her expression, paired with that small defensive motion, immediately made him glance toward the private dining room nearby.The food arrived, and Leo deliberately shifted the conversation back to children and school schedules.
