Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1494
Miranda’s hands tightened slightly in her lap.Maybe Mia couldn’t fully understand what Xena had said, but she must have felt the malice behind those words.“From now on, please keep her out of our lives,” Miranda said, unable to hide the disgust in her voice. “Don’t ever let her hurt Mia again.”Felix turned the wheel and pulled over to the side of the road.He stopped the car and looked at Miranda with concern.“I’m sorry. This is all my fault. I promise I won’t let her appear in front of you or Mia again.”Miranda turned her face away and said nothing more.Mia was her bottom line.Anyone who hurt her daughter was unforgivable.A brief silence settled inside the car.Felix didn’t start driving again right away.He knew all of this had started because of him.Miranda’s pain had started because of him too.“I’m sorry,” Felix said again, his voice hoarse and filled with pain. “It’s my fault.”Miranda didn’t turn back.It seemed she didn’t want to speak.“I’ve already ar

Miranda could feel Felix watching her.She pressed her lips together and kept her focus on the work in front of her.Half an hour later, she finished entering the data and writing the report. She let out a quiet breath, saved the file, and shut down her computer.“All done?” Felix stood up and walked over to wait beside her.Miranda nodded and got to her feet.“Did you make a reservation?”“Yes,” Felix said.He waited for her to start walking before following her out.Miranda rode in Felix’s car. She was tired enough that she didn’t feel like driving herself.Neither of them said much on the way, but the silence felt natural, as if they had never been apart.Felix had chosen a quiet, upscale restaurant with plenty of privacy.After they ordered, he looked up and asked, “Have you run into any problems at work?”“Not for now,” Miranda said.“What about the renovation?” Felix asked. “Is there any style you especially like? Or anything you want to add?”Miranda had already pl

“Hello, Ms. Spencer.”“I want to see Felix,” Xena snapped, her voice forceful.Gavin’s calm voice came through the phone.“If there’s anything you need, you can tell me. I’ll pass it along.”“I said I want to see Felix,” Xena said through clenched teeth. “If he wants to terminate the contract, he should come tell me himself. I still have questions for him.”“Ms. Spencer, you should know Mr. Gibson has no intention of seeing you.”Gavin’s tone had cooled.“Gavin, who do you think you are?” Xena sneered. “You’re just the messenger. Tell Felix to see me.”“Ms. Spencer, dragging this out won’t do you any good.”Gavin’s voice had gone completely cold.“Do me any good?” Xena let out a bitter laugh. “Do you think I have anything left to lose?”Then she stated her demand.“I want Felix to pay me severance. Two million. Otherwise, I won’t let this end quietly.”Before Gavin could respond, Xena shouted, “Felix used me for years, and now he thinks he can just throw me away? It doesn’

“Ms. Spencer, we repeated the tests twice. The results were the same,” Dr. Smith said calmly. “As a researcher, I have to be responsible for the safety of the experiment. I’m sorry, but your blood can no longer be used in any of our research.”Xena stared hard at the numbers on the report, and at the word positive printed on the page.She drew in a sharp breath.Then her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.Just then, another document was handed to her.“Ms. Spencer,” Gavin said, “Mr. Gibson has decided to terminate your contract unilaterally. According to Clause Three of the agreement you signed, Mr. Gibson is formally notifying you that the contract is terminated effective immediately.”Xena snapped her gaze toward Gavin, her voice rising.“Terminated? On what grounds? Felix can sign me whenever he wants and drop me whenever he wants?”“Ms. Spencer,” Gavin said evenly, “because your blood sample no longer meets the lab’s safety standards, the agreement clearly states t

At that moment, Felix had just brought Mia and Sienna back to the Gibson estate.He was about to head to Miranda’s lab when he saw Dr. Smith’s call come in.He answered through the car’s hands-free system.“Hello, Dr. Smith.”“Mr. Gibson, there’s something I need to report to you,” Dr. Smith said. “Ms. Spencer came to the lab for her blood draw earlier, but during testing, we found that her sample showed positive syphilis markers.”Felix’s heart sank slightly.But in a way, it wasn’t entirely unexpected.He already knew how chaotic Xena’s private life had become recently, so the news didn’t truly surprise him.“Dr. Smith, stop all experiments involving her blood,” Felix said, his voice low and firm. “I’ll terminate the contract with her. We won’t be using her anymore.”Dr. Smith’s voice remained professional and cautious.“Understood. We’ll begin a full biosafety review of the lab immediately.”“Thank you.”Felix ended the call, then dialed Gavin.Gavin answered quickly.

Xena bit her lip and looked in the direction Derek had left with a sneer.Then she got ready to leave too.Just then, a server walked over.“Miss, you haven’t paid your bill yet.”Xena stiffened.She walked to the counter, paid, and left.These past few days, everything had been arranged for her, from her meals to her transportation to the place she stayed. It had been a long time since she had paid for anything herself.Xena walked out of the riding club in a daze.Even though it was already August, she felt cold all over.Derek was gone.Daniel had stopped paying for her life too.She had no assistant, no agent, and not a single person left who could help her.Just then, her phone rang.She glanced at the screen and answered.“Hello?”“Ms. Spencer, according to the contract, today is the day you’re scheduled to come in for a blood draw. Are you available to stop by the lab now?”It was Dr. Smith’s assistant.Anger flashed across Xena’s face.Felix had just driven he

“Didn’t we agree on no gifts?” Miranda teased with a helpless smile.“Some occasions call for a gift,” Mike replied. He gave a small nod and headed out.Once the door closed, Miranda remembered the bouquet he had brought. She reached inside and pulled out a tiny velvet box. When she opened it, the

Felix’s gaze lingered on her face for a few seconds, but he did not answer right away.The dim wall lamp in the living room cast a dull yellow light across his features, carving his face into sharp, cold lines. The shadow of his lashes hid whatever emotion lay in his eyes, making it impossible to t

“Alright, then we can have cake after dinner.” Miranda smiled gently.“Mia, we have to save a little room so we can eat cake later,” Mia said very seriously to Vivian.The adults at the table couldn’t help laughing at her earnest tone.Seeing how relaxed everyone was, Miranda let out a quiet brea

“Was it because of something she said to you that your heart started acting up?” Sienna asked immediately.Xena let out a bitter smile. “Sienna, don’t ask. What she said was pretty harsh. It’s better not to repeat it.”“No, I want to hear it. Tell me exactly what she said,” Sienna insisted. She wa
