Chapter 397

Penulis: Baby X
Felix’s eyes followed the white Cayenne until it disappeared into the curtain of rain. His brow tightened slightly, almost too subtle to notice.

When Xena stepped up beside him, she caught the faint smell of smoke clinging to his suit and narrowed her eyes. Felix never smoked unless something was weighing on his mind.

Miranda had come to Leo’s father’s funeral. She had no real reason to be there. So why had she shown up?

To Xena, the answer was obvious. Miranda wanted to stir something in Fel

Instead of thinking her daughter’s statement was cute, she should have used that opportunity to remind her of when she didn’t work how she was labelled useless and stupid. That all her hard work was to make her proud of her mother.

    In the dim shadows, Miranda’s mind had gone completely blank.By the time she came back to herself, her fingers had somehow curled tightly into the front of Felix’s shirt. Only then did she remember they were still standing by the road.Embarrassed and flustered, she pushed him away.“Are you done?” Miranda asked, lowering her eyes, irritation slipping into her voice.To her surprise, Felix let out a low laugh.“Not even close.”The night breeze brushed against Miranda’s face, clearing her head a little. She turned away, only to realize her face had gone completely red.Gavin’s car was parked less than thirty feet away.Which meant everything that had just happened had a witness.Felix noticed her embarrassment. He turned and walked toward the car.A moment later, Gavin got out of the driver’s seat and quickly flagged down a cab before leaving.Miranda froze for a second.Soon after, Felix got behind the wheel. The silver Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up beside her, smooth and

    Felix gave a helpless smile. “I just wish I hadn’t made that trip so unpleasant for you.”“If you knew you were such a nuisance, why did you still follow me there?” Miranda said, annoyed.A flicker of determination crossed Felix’s eyes, along with a possessiveness he kept carefully hidden.“Even if you didn’t want me there, I still had to go.”Besides, it was not as if Miranda had only pushed him away once. No matter how many times she had done it, he had never truly backed down.Miranda was briefly speechless at his brazen answer.But when she thought about it, ever since their divorce, no matter how cold she had been to him or how deliberately she had kept her distance, Felix had never truly left her and Mia’s lives.He always found a way, and a reason, to show up in front of her again.Like a shadow she could never quite shake.“If I hadn’t gone that time, would you have ended up with Leo?” Felix suddenly asked, his voice a little muffled.Miranda froze.She thought back

    Just then, the door to the private room opened, and Felix walked in.He had clearly come straight from a meeting. He was still in a formal suit, and a trace of fatigue lingered between his brows.“Sorry I’m late.”After saying that, Felix walked to Miranda’s side, pulled out the chair naturally, and sat down. Gavin then went to ask the restaurant to start serving the food.Felix seemed to sense what they had been talking about. He glanced at Miranda and asked with a smile, “Were you talking about me?”Dr. Smith laughed it off.“Yes, we were talking about the lab. Miranda mentioned that she’d like to visit the lab in Danesia when she has the chance.”Felix looked at Miranda.“Before the New Year, we can take Mia there to see the snow. You can visit the lab your father used while we’re there.”Miranda froze.“My dad’s lab is still there?”Dr. Smith answered from the side, “It is. Everything has been preserved exactly as it was. There are still many notes Eugene left behind.”

    Miranda answered.“Hello?”“Are you done with work? I’m having dinner with Dr. Smith’s team tonight. Come join us.”Miranda thought for a moment.“Okay. Send me the restaurant address. I’ll come over.”To Miranda, Dr. Smith was both a mentor and a friend. More importantly, it was because of his years of accumulated research and exploration that she had found a chance to treat the blood disease at its root and eliminate the hidden risk of Mia developing it in the future.When Miranda got off work, Gavin arrived to pick her up.“Ms. Stone, Mr. Gibson was worried you’d be too tired after work, so he asked me to come get you,” Gavin said with a smile.Since he was already there, Miranda didn’t insist on driving herself.She had been overusing her eyes lately, and it really wasn’t ideal for her to drive, especially during rush hour.By the time Gavin brought her to the private dining room, Felix had been delayed by an important meeting and was still on his way.When Dr. Smith saw

    Time slipped by before anyone realized how late it had gotten.Miranda looked at Felix and said, “You should head back and get some rest.”“Mommy, I still want to play with Daddy.” Mia held on to Felix’s hand and refused to let him go.Felix crouched down in front of her.“Then how about Daddy takes you upstairs?”“Will you tell me a dinosaur story for a little while?” Mia immediately asked.Felix looked up at Miranda.After all, her bedroom was still her private space. Without her permission, he knew he shouldn’t stay there too long.“Take Mia to my room and read her the story there,” Miranda said. “I still have a little work to do.”She wasn’t refusing. She was trying to give Mia some of what she wanted too.Lately, Mia had asked several times for Felix to read her a bedtime story, but Miranda had turned her down each time.Tonight, she would let her have this one.“Yay! Daddy, let’s go!” Mia grabbed Felix’s hand and pulled him upstairs.Mrs. Young tidied up a little, th

    Miranda paused slightly.She had always kept her distance from the media.“I got it,” she said.Just then, she caught the bitter smell of herbs drifting from the kitchen. She turned to look, then glanced back at Felix.“Did you ask Mrs. Young to prepare the herbal tonic for you?”Felix smiled.“Yeah. I wanted to try it.”Miranda walked into the kitchen and took a look. She lifted the lid, smelled it, then returned to the living room.“It smells really bitter,” she said.She had never liked herbal tonics.“Bitter means it’s working,” Felix said, looking completely unfazed.Before long, Mia came rushing down the stairs in a cute bunny-print pajama set, her freshly dried hair bouncing as she threw herself into Felix’s arms like a little cannonball.“Daddy, I’m all clean and I smell good!”Felix laughed and caught her, then leaned down to smell the top of her head.“Mm. Very good.”Watching them, Miranda suddenly thought of how adorable Mia had been when she was just over a

    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.

    Felix stared at the photos for a few seconds. He remembered that on Wednesday he had asked Miranda whether she planned to attend the parent-child outing, and she had explicitly told him she wouldn't be attending.So why was she there with Mia?Did she say that just to keep him away, making it easi

    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

    Gavin was clearly someone who knew how to get things done, and he worked fast. Half an hour later, he sent over a complete list of available units in Cloudcrest Residence.“Mr. Gibson, there are two listings in Building Twelve. One is 2701 on the twenty-seventh floor, right below Ms. Stone’s new ho
