Chapter 235

Author: Baby X
At six thirty, Miranda and Sophie handed over their invitations and stepped into the grand lobby.

They had just entered the elevator when the doors opened again and a server poked his head in. “Excuse me, one more guest needs to come in.” He turned and smiled toward the hallway. “Please come in, miss.”

As Miranda and Sophie were chatting, they looked up to see Xena glide in, dressed in an elegant white evening gown.

The surprise flashed in Xena’s eyes. At such a formal, prestigious gala, she

    At the entrance, just before Felix went into the procedure room, he turned to Miranda.“Wait for me.”“I’ll be right here.”Felix lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then turned and walked in calmly.The door closed behind him.Miranda stood in the hallway, staring at the shut door, her heart beating a little faster for no reason.“Ms. Stone, we’ve prepared tea and snacks in the waiting area. Would you like to rest there for a while?” Gavin walked over and asked.Miranda nodded and went to the waiting area nearby.She took out her phone, wanting to read something to distract herself, but she could not focus at all.Twenty minutes passed.Then thirty.Nearly an hour later, the door finally opened.Felix was wheeled out. His face was a little pale, but he seemed to be in good spirits.After he was brought into the recovery room, the hospital staff gave a few instructions and left.Miranda sat down by the bed and could not help asking, “Does it hurt?”Felix smiled and

    Miranda buried her face against his chest and asked, “Are you hiding something from me?”For a split second, surprise flashed through Felix’s eyes.Then he seemed to realize what she meant.“Gavin told you?” he asked helplessly.Miranda nodded.Felix lifted her chin, his deep eyes open and sincere.“I was going to tell you after it was done so you wouldn’t worry,” he said in a low voice.“I told you there’s no need.” Miranda looked at him, unable to understand why he would go that far.Felix smiled and kissed her forehead.“Don’t worry. I’m only going in for a consultation first.”Then he lowered his head a little and brushed his lips against hers.“I don’t want you to go through pregnancy and childbirth again.”Miranda’s heart jolted.“The only way to make absolutely sure that doesn’t happen is a vasectomy,” Felix said, gently stroking her cheek. “Mira, Mia is enough for us.”Miranda let out a soft sigh.“I’m not even sure whether I might want another child someday.”F

    Two hundred million.At this rate, everything he had worked for was about to go up in smoke.Wesley stormed out.The moment he stepped into the elevator, Melanie called.Already furious, he answered.Melanie’s voice came through at once.“Honey, I’m going to your cousin’s place this afternoon. I’ll bring Yara with me too.”Wesley’s hand shook around the phone.“Melanie, shut your mouth! Look at the mess you’ve caused.”“What did I do now?”“I’ll settle this with you when I get home.”Wesley growled the words and hung up.*Felix led Miranda back to his office.Once they were inside, he guided her onto the couch and searched her face carefully.“Don’t let what Wesley said get to you,” he said. “I’m sorry you had to hear that in front of everyone.”Miranda smiled.“I didn’t.”“Really?” There was still a trace of uncertainty in his eyes.“What outsiders say doesn’t affect me.”Miranda patted the seat beside her.“Sit. Let’s talk.”Felix sat down beside her.Miranda

    Wesley’s face flushed, then drained of color.His lips trembled as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn’t get a single word out.Whatever pride and dignity he had left were gone.It was as if, in that moment, he had finally been forced to recognize exactly where he stood.Miranda remained standing by her seat, her mind blank for a moment.She watched Felix turn back toward her.Felix was looking at her too. The anger in his eyes had faded, leaving only quiet reassurance.Reassurance meant for her.Miranda’s eyes warmed under that gaze.She hadn’t expected Felix to say those words. Not in front of so many people, and not with such complete, uncompromising protection.Felix came to her side without another word. He took her hand and said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”His voice had returned to calm, but the strength of his grip told her his emotions were anything but.Miranda did not pull away.She let him lead her out of the conference room.The hallway wa

    Wesley had always been proud and arrogant. Being humiliated like this by someone from the younger generation, in front of every shareholder in the room, was more than he could take.Even knowing the consequences wouldn’t be easy to bear, he still had to defend what little pride he had left.He shot to his feet, glaring at Felix before turning his anger on Miranda.“Felix, I know why you’re targeting me. Isn’t it because of this woman beside you?”Wesley let out a cold laugh.“All I did was kindly suggest that you marry someone else and have more children for the Gibson family. Your family line needs to continue. As for your ex-wife here, even if you remarry her, she won’t give you any more children. Was I wrong?”The moment Wesley finished speaking, the entire meeting room fell into a deathly silence.Everyone’s gaze landed on Miranda, then quickly shifted away, as if they were afraid of offending Felix.Wesley continued, “I’d say this not only in front of you, but even in fron

    Miranda nodded.“All right. We’ll wait for him.”Two minutes later, footsteps sounded from around the corner of the hall.Then Felix appeared in a dark suit, with Gavin and two older shareholders behind him.His gaze landed on Miranda at once, and a flash of surprise and warmth crossed his eyes.“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” he asked, his voice carrying a faint note of displeasure and concern.Miranda could only explain, “Keith called me on the way, so I came over.”Keith hadn’t seen Felix for some time. When he saw the way Felix looked at Miranda, he couldn’t help feeling secretly pleased.It seemed things between them had become quite different lately.Felix looked at Keith.Keith quickly explained, “Mr. Gibson, there’s a proposal today that requires Ms. Stone to be here in person.”Felix nodded, then looked back at Miranda, his gaze gentle and indulgent.“Don’t worry. Keith’s proposal will pass.”“Thank you,” Miranda said.In front of others, she was notice

    “I’ll take you home,” Leo said.“It’s fine. Go take care of your guests.”Leo’s eyes showed he wasn’t backing down. “It’s no trouble. Come on.”Miranda stepped outside. Her car was parked in the VIP lane at the entrance of the Moutin Hotel.A cold wind swept through the night. December was almos

    After playing for about fifteen minutes, Mia came out of the playroom and noticed Felix was gone. A small wave of disappointment crossed her face, but she didn’t fuss. Miranda returned to her study, and just as she sat down, her phone rang. The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.She answered.

    Miranda turned to Coco and said, “A gift is never measured by the price. It is measured by the thought behind it. And to me, your thoughtfulness is priceless.”Coco felt a rush of relief. She had given the gift both to show her appreciation for Miranda’s mentorship and as a silent apology for their

    Leo gave a quiet laugh. “Makes sense. Even if you and Miranda are divorced, living right under her place will make it a lot easier to look after Mia.”Felix shot him a look but remained silent.The elevator doors chimed open. Leo stepped out first, followed by Felix, who was carrying two elegantly
