Chapter 214

ผู้เขียน: Baby X
Miranda only realized how strong the wind was once she stepped inside with James. They walked quickly toward the elevators. She found herself wondering, just for a moment, why Felix had chosen to stand outside smoking in such bitter cold.

But she quickly pushed the thought aside. His choices no longer had anything to do with her.

Back in her room, she took a shower and went over her notes from the day’s sessions. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. She assumed it must be James, so she opened the door

    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

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 1569

    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

    Wesley, of course, remembered Melanie’s niece.Yara was indeed beautiful and quick-witted. She knew how to say the right things, and people liked her easily. If they really managed to place her inside Gibson Corporation and put her near Felix, she might actually have a chance.“Fine,” Wesley agreed. “Have Yara get ready. I’ll put in a word.”Melanie immediately brightened.“Don’t worry. Yara will be more than willing.”Wesley thought to himself that it never hurt to make an extra move. One day, it might prove useful.As for Melanie, she was already thinking ahead.Miranda might be excellent, but her niece was younger.In her mind, she could almost see Yara marrying into the Gibson family. When that day came, her sister’s family would have to thank her for being such a wonderful matchmaker.The next morning, Miranda went straight to the lab.She had come up with a new idea the night before, and she needed to verify it as soon as possible.She had just arrived at her office wh

    Seeing that Wesley was willing to listen, Melanie continued, “Think about Susan. What does she care about most? The Gibson family line, of course. The company’s future heir. No matter how much she loves her granddaughter, a granddaughter is still a girl. In families like theirs, who wouldn’t want a grandson?”Wesley had two sons himself. That had always been his confidence and his backing.As a man, he understood better than anyone how much a man could want a son.“Go on,” he said.Melanie smiled.“What is Miranda now? She’s a famous scientist, a shareholder of Gibson Corporation, young, successful, and highly respected. She spends every day buried in the lab. How much attention do you think a woman like that has left for family? Do you really think she’d be willing to have another child for Felix and put her career on hold?”Wesley’s eyes lit up.Why hadn’t he thought of that?If Felix remarried, it would naturally be because he wanted another child, preferably a son. But what

    “Get some rest,” Miranda said.She reached for the close button.Outside the elevator, Felix’s voice sounded especially clear in the quiet hallway.“Miranda, I meant everything I said today.”Miranda’s body stiffened slightly. Then she pressed the button and let the elevator doors close without saying anything.*That night, in a mansion in an upscale neighborhood, Wesley had been in a bad mood ever since he got home.He had wanted to call his cousin Susan and complain, but when he remembered that Miranda was her former daughter-in-law, he held himself back.Still, he had embarrassed himself at the shareholder meeting today. At his age, it wasn’t the kind of humiliation he could easily swallow.When Melanie Zimmer saw the look on her husband’s face after he came home, she had asked him several times what was wrong. But Wesley refused to say anything.Now it was already eleven o’clock, and he was still downstairs drinking alone.Melanie put on a robe and came downstairs.“

    “Let go,” Miranda said softly.Felix released her hand right away and only took the glass from her. He drank the water slowly.After finishing it, he still looked visibly uncomfortable. His voice was a little hoarse and tired.“Can I lie down here for a while?”“Go ahead,” Miranda said.There was a thin sheen of cold sweat at his temples and between his brows. It didn’t look like he was pretending.Miranda went to the closet in the bedroom and found a blanket for him.Felix lay back on the couch with a throw pillow under his head and closed his eyes.Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang.Keith had personally brought the antacids over.He asked with concern, “Is Mr. Gibson all right?”Miranda nodded.“He’s okay.”After closing the door, Miranda poured another glass of warm water and took two pills out of the package.“Take these before you sleep.”Felix slowly opened his eyes.He sat up against the couch, took the pills from Miranda, and swallowed them with the water she

    Felix’s gaze lingered on Miranda, silently asking whether she had told Mia about the divorce.Miranda met his eyes for a few seconds. After six years of marriage, Felix could still read her look instantly.“Your mom’s been busy with work lately. Let’s let her rest,” Felix said gently to Mia.“Oka

    Felix turned, the afternoon sunlight falling across him, but it did nothing to soften the forbidding aura that kept others at a distance.Just then, Gavin knocked and stepped inside. “Mr. Gibson, it’s time for your meeting.”Xena froze for a moment as Felix walked out of the office. Gavin came ove

    Miranda’s expression cooled. “I don’t have time.”Sensing the tension, Ben quickly excused himself. “I’ll step out for the restroom. You two go ahead and talk.” With that, he slipped away.Felix frowned. “I heard that Keith Logan, former vice president of Lincoln Corporation, is now working under

    Seeing Mia happily clutch the dinosaur toy, Miranda’s suspicions hardened into certainty. That night, Xena hadn’t just answered the call, she and Felix had been together. For all Miranda knew, they might even have been sharing the same bed.“Ms. Stone, Mr. Gibson said he’ll be staying for dinner, s
