Chapter 40

Author: Baby X
Sure enough, it was Xena. Today she was dressed in a tailored business suit with a pair of sleek silver glasses. The outfit made her look elegant and professional while still exuding mature allure. Standing beside Felix, she looked like the perfect accessory to his polished image.

So when Felix said he was staying overnight at the office last night, he was probably at Xena’s place instead.

It hit Miranda that Felix was already openly bringing Xena to events and social circles.

“Why is she here too?” James’ voice sounded from beside her. “Do you really plan to keep holding on to a marriage like this?”

Miranda had no reason to hide anything from him. Her gaze remained on the couple as she said firmly, “I’m going to file for divorce.”

James paused and looked at her. “If you need my help with anything, just say the word.”

Miranda gave him a grateful smile. “Not for now.”

Downstairs, the launch ceremony was about to begin. James said, “I’ll head down first. You don’t have to come if

    “So many days have passed. He should be fine by now.”“Exactly. He never skips this kind of launch event.”When Coco pulled Miranda downstairs to watch the presentation, a sudden stir rose from the entrance. From a distance, the crowd slowly split apart, forming a clear path.Felix walked in wearing a sharp black suit. His posture was straight and commanding, and he looked completely recovered.Miranda instinctively tugged Coco in the opposite direction, wanting to slip out of sight. Felix’s gaze swept across the entire lobby like a hawk and landed on her almost instantly. Miranda turned just in time to meet his eyes.His stare lingered for only a brief second before he looked away and continued toward the stage. He showed no trace of illness.Ben rushed forward the moment Felix approached and shook his hand. “Next, let’s invite Mr. Gibson to say a few words.”Felix took the microphone. His deep voice filled the hall. “My apologies for arriving late. I have always placed high ho

    Leo’s smile froze for a moment. Then he let out a quiet sigh. “Is it because your marriage with Felix ended so badly? Did it make you lose faith in marriage altogether?”Miranda thought for a few seconds before shaking her head. “It is not just that. Yes, the marriage was painful, but the truth is that all of my time and energy belong to Mia and my work right now.”She simply did not have room for a relationship. Her work was just getting off the ground. Mia was still young. Agreeing to anything new would feel irresponsible, both to herself and to the other person involved.“I do not mind,” Leo said softly, a seriousness flickering in his eyes. “I can—”“Please don’t,” Miranda interrupted him gently but firmly. “We are good friends, and I do not want to see you put your life on hold because of me.”Leo fell silent. He looked at her for a long moment before the server arrived with their dishes. He exhaled and forced a small smile. “Let’s eat first. Try their signature dish. I think

    Miranda let out a cold, almost mocking smile. “If I ever decide to get married again, you will be the first to know.”The elevator chimed as the doors opened on the ground floor. She walked out without looking back. Behind her, Felix finally stopped suppressing his cough.*At noon, Miranda pulled up in front of Lincoln Corporation. Leo was back at work today. His complexion looked much better than the last time she saw him, though the arm that had just come out of its cast was still a little stiff.She got out of the car and opened the passenger door for him. The gesture made Leo both embarrassed and touched. “I can handle opening a door.”Miranda gave him an easy smile. “I told you I would take care of you until you recovered.”Leo slid into the seat. The faint scent inside the car made him smile without realizing it.He had already booked a restaurant nearby. It only took ten minutes for Miranda to pull into the parking lot. As they walked inside, a server quickly approached.

    Felix’s fingers brushed over the velvet box as he looked at Miranda. She reached out and took it back from him. “Thank you.”Felix pressed his lips into a tight line as something dark flickered in his eyes.When he noticed Keith hesitating instead of continuing the report, his fingers tapped the table with a rhythm that carried a hint of irritation.Keith immediately resumed speaking, but from that point on, Felix’s questions became noticeably sharper. Keith managed well enough thanks to his extensive reporting experience, maintaining his composure throughout. Still, by the time they wrapped up, his forehead glistened with a light sweat. The other senior managers wasted no time leaving once the meeting concluded.When Felix stood, a sudden wave of coughing hit him. He braced one hand on the conference table, his knuckles turning white as he struggled to catch his breath.Miranda continued gathering her documents without even glancing in his direction.“Mr. Gibson,” Keith said q

    That night, Miranda received a call from Keith. He told her there would be an executive meeting at ten the next morning and asked if she could spare an hour to attend. Miranda agreed.In addition to being a researcher, Miranda was also a business owner with eight companies under her name. That evening, she temporarily set aside her work from DE and opened the financial reports Keith had sent. The two of them went over the details online.The next morning, Miranda put on a tailored royal-blue pantsuit. The pearl stud earrings she chose gave her a clean, polished look. After dropping Mia off at school, she drove to the Moutin Hotel.At the hotel’s breakfast lounge, Miranda dined like any other guest while the general manager and an assistant stayed close by, carefully watching her reactions to the food and service. Once she finished, she walked into the conference room. Sixteen senior executives immediately rose to greet her.“Good morning, Ms. Stone.”Miranda gave a small nod and h

    Miranda let out a cold laugh. “No one forced him to be here.”With or without Felix, the meeting would have gone exactly the same.Coco glanced at her, surprised by how sharp Miranda became whenever Felix was mentioned. She kept quiet after that. Clearly the rumors about Miranda wanting to reconcile were nonsense. She had only been trying to give things a small push.When Coco left, a thought struck Miranda. She picked up her phone and dialed Samantha.“Dr. Liam, could you help me get my dad’s last physical exam from the hospital?” she asked.“Of course. Why do you need it all of a sudden?”“It’s nothing. I just want to take a look,” Miranda said without explaining further.“All right. I will call them now.”Ten minutes later, an email arrived. Miranda opened the file, her fingers trembling slightly.It was a five-year-old medical report. Every indicator fell within normal range except for moderate anemia. There was no sign whatsoever of the rare RH-negative blood disorder Eug
