Chapter 396

Author: Baby X
Miranda hesitated for a moment, but before she could answer, Leo’s voice grew lower on the other end of the line. “Miranda, don’t feel pressured. I know you’re busy. I shouldn’t have asked.”

“I’ll come,” she said quietly. “I’ll make sure to arrive early that day.”

He let out a long breath of relief. “That’s more than enough. You don’t have to stay long, just stop by for a few minutes.”

Three days later, a heavy rain swept across the city early in the morning. The funeral was held at a priv

    Early the next morning, Felix took Mia to school as promised, while Miranda went to the lab.When she arrived, Adrian was already there.“Morning, Miranda.”He looked up, dark circles obvious beneath his eyes.“I ran the data you sent me last night.”Miranda put on her lab coat and walked over.“What did you find?”Adrian moved aside and pointed at the waveform on the screen, his voice tight with barely contained excitement.“Look here. It matches the anomaly we found before. Exactly. I ran it three more times on the new equipment, and the same waveform appeared every time.”Miranda stared at the screen, her heartbeat slowly picking up.She pulled up one set of data after another and compared them carefully.Ten minutes later, she suddenly leaned back in her chair and took a deep breath.“Adrian.”“Miranda, your theory was right,” Adrian said, visibly shaken. “This could put you in the running for the Aurora Prize.”Miranda did not speak.She only stared at the familiar

    “For you.”Miranda smiled and took it from him.She took a bite. The sugar melted on her tongue, sweet and delicate.After a couple of bites, she held it out to Felix.“You try some too.”Felix lowered his head and took a bite. Looking at her, his eyes filled with amusement.“Mm. Very sweet.”Miranda was just lowering her head to take another bite when Felix leaned close to her ear in the middle of the busy street.“You’re sweeter.”Her ears warmed at his words.Behind her, Felix let out a low laugh. Then he quickly caught up to her and took her hand again.After they finished shopping, Felix took her to a private restaurant he had arranged for lunch.Once they were done eating, the driver took them back to the hotel to pick up their luggage, then headed straight for the airport.By five that afternoon, they were home.Mia was thrilled with her gifts, but the one that caught her attention most was a beautifully made metal brain teaser puzzle.Miranda sat beside her and w

    That night, Miranda went to bed rather late.Half-asleep, she heard the doorbell ring.She glanced at the time.It was only eight thirty.She got up and walked to the door. Through the peephole, she took one look outside and froze.Standing outside was a face she knew all too well.She immediately opened the door.Felix stood outside in a dark gray coat, looking as if he had come straight from a long trip.The moment he saw her, his lips curved into a smile.“Did I wake you?”“You… Why are you here?”Miranda glanced behind him.“It’s just me. Mia’s at home.”With that, Felix stepped inside, reached out with his arms, and pulled her into his embrace. He buried his face in her hair and breathed her in.“I missed you, so I came.”Miranda leaned against his chest, but she still couldn’t help scolding him.“You haven’t fully recovered yet. Why did you come all the way here?”Felix gave a soft snort.“Do you care about me at all? It’s already been sixteen days. I’m long pas

    “Mike called me,” Lena said, looking at her. “Thank you for coming.”Lena’s shoulder-length hair was cut in a neat, practical style. Even sitting in a wheelchair, she looked clean, sharp, and composed, with a quiet strength that was hard to miss.For someone so young to become a pilot, Lena had Miranda’s genuine respect.Miranda sat down across from her.For a moment, they simply looked at each other.Then, for some reason, they both smiled.Even in the wheelchair, Lena sat with her back perfectly straight. It was the kind of posture that came from years of military training, already ingrained in her bones.Her eyes were clear and steady, still full of hope.“Can I call you Lena?” Miranda asked.Lena nodded.“Of course, Dr. Stone.”“Call me Miranda. I’m only two years older than you, so we’re basically the same age.”Lena smiled.“Then I’ll call you Miranda.”Miranda nodded.Lena looked at her, gratitude quietly stirring in her eyes.“Miranda, I know Mike was able to wa

    Felix could only nod obediently.“Okay. I’ll wait for you at home.”The next afternoon, Gavin came to take Miranda to the airport.This time, Dr. Lewis and several well-known professors were traveling with her.Miranda wore a crisp trench coat and walked beside the older professors. Calm and composed, she fit in effortlessly among them.Two and a half hours later, they arrived at Hamilton Airport.Miranda checked into the guest accommodations that had been arranged for them.For the next three days, she attended back-to-back lectures and training sessions. The schedule was full, but productive.Every day after class, Felix would video call her with Mia.At noon on the fourth day, Miranda had just finished lunch in the cafeteria and was talking with a few colleagues when her phone rang.She picked it up and glanced at the screen.Then she paused slightly.It was Mike.Miranda took her phone outside to answer.Mike’s familiar voice came through the line.“Miranda, I heard

    Miranda had an upcoming work trip that would last about a week. The National Science and Technology Institute was holding a project exchange meeting. The email had come in last month, but she had kept quiet about it until now.“I have to travel for work on Monday. I’ll probably be gone for about a week.”Felix lifted his head and looked at her.“Travel? Where?”“Hamilton. There’s a project exchange at the institute, and I need to attend.”Felix’s brows drew together at once.“A week? You’re leaving me here alone for a whole week?”Miranda almost laughed in annoyance.“Alone? Your mom and Sienna both moved into this neighborhood, didn’t they? How are you alone? And Mia is here too.”Felix was left briefly speechless, but the look on his face clearly said he wasn’t happy.He asked sullenly, “When are you leaving?”“Probably Sunday afternoon.”“But I need you.”Felix tightened his arms around her like he was being completely unreasonable on purpose.“I’m a patient. You can

    Sienna tossed her phone aside and leaned back against the seat. “Finally. I’m not angry anymore. I feel better now.”Xena smiled. “Felix dotes on you the most. He won’t hold this against you. But…” She hesitated.“But what?” Sienna immediately sat up straight.Xena sighed softly. “But Felix reall

    Hayden suddenly thought of something and went downstairs ahead of the others to take care of the seating. His own seat was on the far right of the second row, and he had already asked the staff to keep three seats there for him.After Sienna and Xena took their seats, they looked up at the promotio

    That evening, Miranda picked up Mia and took her to dinner at the Moutin Hotel. The restaurant was filled with families enjoying the holiday, and Mia watched them with a thoughtful look in her eyes. While Miranda stepped away to take a phone call, Mia took the opportunity to use her phone watch to

    “No,” Miranda replied without hesitation. She sent the message and walked straight toward her office.Fiona remained where she was, staring at Miranda’s retreating figure. She bit her lip. This time, she would prove herself. She would earn her place in the project on her own merit.Back in her off
