Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1514
That reply made Felix laugh in exasperation.There was a hint of helplessness in his voice when he asked, “Do we really have to keep score like this between us?”Miranda pressed her lips together.It wasn’t that he needed the money. She knew he didn’t. But she couldn’t just accept his kindness as if it were something she was entitled to.It was a habit she had developed over the past three years. No matter what happened, her first instinct was always to draw a clear line.“It’s not about keeping score,” Miranda said, her voice clear but firm. “I just don’t want you paying for my gift. It’s for Grandma’s birthday, after all.”Felix took two steps toward her, closing the distance between them.He was tall, and the light behind him cast a faint shadow over her.“Do we really have to draw such a clear line between us?” he asked, his voice lower than before.Miranda looked up into his eyes and couldn’t find a reason to argue.Still, using his gift as her own really didn’t feel rig

Mia’s innocent, unfiltered comment was like a small stone dropped into a quiet lake. In an instant, ripples spread through everyone’s hearts.Everyone at the table looked toward Miranda and Felix at the same time.Miranda’s face flushed at once.Her skin was already fair, and against the champagne-colored gown, the blush on her cheeks looked even more obvious.A soft laugh escaped Felix.He crouched down and rubbed Mia’s head.“Is that right?”“Yeah!” Mia said. “Mommy is so pretty, and Daddy is so handsome.”Then she asked curiously, “When are you going to get married again?”As soon as she said that, everyone froze again.“Mia,” Miranda finally found her voice and tried to redirect Mia’s curiosity. “Are you hungry? Come eat with Mommy.”Sienna glanced at Felix and secretly made a little cheering gesture.Felix gave her a helpless but indulgent smile. Then he said to Mia, “Mommy is hungry. Let’s eat with Mommy first, okay?”“Okay!” Mia nodded obediently.Mrs. Gibson Sr. s

Just then, Felix reached over and took her bag.At the same time, he offered her his arm.“Need some help?”Miranda was about to say no, but she held back the refusal.Then she reached out and took his arm for support.The simple gesture made Felix’s heart jolt.A second later, overwhelming joy filled his chest.He tightened his arm slightly.At that moment, he didn’t care at all whether they were going to be late. He only wished the walk to his car could be a little longer.Unfortunately, the car was barely fifty feet away.They reached it in no time.Felix opened the door for her like a gentleman. As Miranda bent down to get in, his hand lifted at just the right moment to shield her head from the doorframe.Then he handed her bag in as well.Miranda reached out to take it and glanced at the time.It was almost seven.By now, the sky had already darkened, and the city lights were beginning to glow.Felix started the car and drove into the night.Miranda thought Felix

Miranda kept scrolling through the messages.It turned out Felix had asked if she wanted him to pick her up. After that, he had simply decided to come over himself, and by now, he was almost there.Miranda replied, “No need. I’ll drive over myself.”She waited for a while, but Felix did not reply.So she grabbed her bag and headed out.She had just stepped into the lab lobby when she saw a tall figure standing outside, bathed in the glow of the setting sun.Who else could it be but Felix?The receptionist hurried over to greet him.“Mr. Gibson, you’re here.”“I’m here to pick up Dr. Stone,” Felix answered readily, though his eyes were already on Miranda.Then he asked with concern, “Are you done with work?”“Yes. I just finished,” Miranda said with a nod.Then she added apologetically, “Sorry. I lost track of time.”Felix only smiled.“It’s fine. Work comes first. Let’s go.”As soon as the two of them left, the reception desk erupted into excited whispers.“Oh my God. A

“He only talked to me about the research,” Zion said. “I never asked too many questions. With Eugene’s influence back then, getting investment for a project wouldn’t have been difficult.”After saying that, he couldn’t help adding, “When Eugene agreed to let you leave school and marry Felix, he was probably thinking that if anything ever happened to you one day, Felix might continue his research for your sake and try to save you. I know that may not be pleasant to hear, but as parents, we always want to leave our children with the best possible path forward.”Miranda listened, and her eyes burned again.She could imagine Eugene’s anxiety and all the painful thought he had put into it.“In a way, he found you a family you could rely on in the future,” Zion said honestly.Miranda drew in a quiet breath.“I understand what he was trying to do.”“That’s why I was surprised and worried when I heard that you and Felix had divorced,” Zion said. “I even blamed Felix for it at first.

The next morning, Felix stayed with Mia and the rest of the family, since Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s birthday dinner was that evening.Miranda still had work to do, so she went to the lab early.Aiden had already arrived ahead of time to get things ready, and Adrian had proven to be a very reliable right-hand man.“Miranda, we need to stop by Dr. Declan’s lab around noon,” Adrian reminded her.Miranda remembered that she did have an appointment with Zion to go over the data analysis. Rhino Lab had also agreed to provide support for this experiment.At ten o’clock, Miranda and Adrian arrived at the former Jenkins Lab, which was now Zion’s Rhino Lab.After going through the necessary checks, Miranda entered Zion’s conference room.“Miranda, you’re here. Come sit down,” Zion said as he stood to greet her, a warm, fatherly smile on his face.Aiden, who was standing to the side, could barely hide his excitement.After all, Zion was one of the leading figures in the medical field.Miranda h

“Vivian is having dinner at my place tonight. What would you like to eat? I can bring something back for you,” Miranda asked.Leo gave her a small smile. “Anything is fine, but the doctor suggested I keep things light.”“There’s a small cafe next to the hospital, and they make really good chicken

Miranda closed the window, started the engine, and drove away without giving Xena a single glance.As her car disappeared, Fiona came walking out of the lobby with her bag. She opened the door of Xena’s Ferrari and settled into the passenger seat.“I just ran into Miranda,” Xena said as she starte

The smile on Miranda’s face faded. She turned away, looking elsewhere.Leo let out a quiet laugh. “I was just praising her for smoothing things over with your shareholders.”Felix’s gaze shifted to Miranda’s profile, his expression cooling. “It was impressive.”A brief, heavy silence fell between

“I support investing in the brain–computer program. It’s easily the most promising project we have,” one of the senior shareholders suddenly said, his voice full of excitement.Several others nodded immediately. Their expressions made it clear they agreed.Felix smiled and gave a short nod. “Good.
