Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1167
Fiona regretted not seeing Xena for who she really was. She had assumed that once Xena married into the Gibson family and gained access to their enormous fortune, she would stop going after the York family’s assets. Instead, before she had even married into the Gibson family, she had already gotten Felix to seize thirteen percent of York Corporation’s shares for her.Fiona was sitting on the couch, bored and scrolling through the news, when she suddenly came across a financial report. There were photos of Miranda with Felix and a group of industry heavyweights. At once, Fiona’s eyes widened with jealousy as she stared at how far Miranda had come.Two years ago, they had both been researchers in the same lab. Now Miranda had walked away with a sixteen-billion-dollar divorce settlement and had shot to the top of the scientific world, becoming one of the leading figures in the field.The man in the photo speaking warmly with Miranda was the chairman of a major pharmaceutical company.

“It’s Felix, Xena.”Xena took a deep breath and answered, her fingertips trembling slightly. She deliberately softened her voice into something sweet and alluring. “Felix, what made you think of calling me all of a sudden?”These days, even blood draws were being arranged through the lab. She had assumed Felix would never contact her directly again.His voice came through cold as ice. “Yesterday’s test report showed alcohol in your blood. Starting today, and until the experiment is over, you’re not to drink. If your actions affect the progress of the research, you know the consequences.”Xena hurried to explain, “I only had one drink last night while I was out entertaining with my dad.”Felix’s voice was laced with a chill that cut straight through her. “Let me make this clear. If your personal behavior causes any problems with the experiment from now on, you’ll be held fully responsible.”Xena tightened her grip on the phone until her nails bit into her palm. “Felix, are you thr

Xena was naturally the first to notice. Lily was surrounded by media people, and they all knew about the history between Xena and Miranda.“So Miranda really knows how to grab onto the right opportunity. Now she’s using Felix to climb even higher,” Xena said with a cold laugh, though her eyes were burning with jealousy.The photo of Miranda walking alongside those business heavyweights was especially hard for her to look at.Lily couldn’t help asking, “Do you think Miranda might want to get back together with Mr. Gibson?”Xena stared at the way Felix was looking back at Miranda in the photo, her nails dragging hard across the screen. She knew perfectly well that if anyone wanted to get married again, it was Felix.When Lily saw Xena wasn’t answering, she quickly got the message and dropped the subject. With Miranda now so accomplished and radiant, and Felix practically untouchable in the business world, the two of them getting back together would do Xena no favors.“They won’t ge

Miranda kept both hands on the wheel and focused on the road as the scenery rushed past outside. She could feel his gaze on her from the passenger seat, warm and direct. She did her best to ignore it and keep driving.Maybe Felix really was tired. Before long, he closed his eyes and drifted off.By the time Miranda pulled into the open-air parking lot outside the lab, he was fast asleep. She turned to look at him, then called his name once.“Felix. We’re here.”He didn’t respond.Miranda needed to get back to work and didn’t have time to sit there waiting, so she reached over and gave his shoulder a push.“Felix, wake up. We’re here.”Just as she reached out a second time, a warm hand suddenly caught hers.Felix had woken up at some point. The moment he opened his eyes, he grabbed her hand and simply looked at her, his gaze deep and clear.Miranda pulled her hand back almost on instinct and reminded him again, “We’re here. Get out.”Felix rubbed at his brow and got out of the

Felix sat quietly with a cup of tea in his hand, watching Miranda speak with calm confidence about her research. In moments like this, she was so radiant it was hard to look away. Even the business leaders at the table were listening with unusual focus.“Chairman Gibson really has an eye for talent,” Mr. Lambert remarked. “Someone like Dr. Stone absolutely deserves serious support.”Felix gave a slight nod. “Science and technology drive a nation forward, and talent is at the center of that. Dr. Stone is more than worthy of support.”Miranda had just lowered her eyes and lifted her glass when a server placed a dessert in front of her, separate from the others.Felix made a small gesture. “I ordered that specially for Dr. Stone.”Miranda paused for a moment.Everyone at the table understood what he was doing. Felix was clearly trying to win her over.After all, they all knew the two of them had once been married.“This dessert is excellent. Dr. Stone, you should try it,” Chairman

“Don’t leave when the meeting ends. I want to introduce you to a few important people.”Miranda froze for a second and looked up in Felix’s direction. He didn’t turn around. Then another message from him came through.“It’ll help your career.”Miranda replied, “Okay.”A little later, the meeting ended. No one in the room rushed to leave. Instead, everyone took the chance to network with people from other industries. When Miranda stood up, she saw Felix standing among the crowd, looking straight at her.She immediately understood and walked over to his side. Setting their personal history aside, these kinds of connections really were important for her.The moment Miranda reached him, Felix led her over to a sharp-eyed older man.“Miranda, this is Mr. Lambert of HD Pharmaceutical Group.”Then he turned to the older man and said, “This is Dr. Miranda Stone from the medical university.”“Mr. Lambert, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve heard so much about you.” Miranda smiled and re

Felix stared at his phone for a few seconds before replying.“Stay with her tonight. I’ll come by tomorrow.”Hayden responded almost immediately. “Okay.”*Early the next morning, Mrs. Young was combing Mia’s hair when Gigi, who had been lying nearby, suddenly perked up. Gigi’s ears shot up, and

After the meeting ended, Dr. Williams stayed behind to speak with Samantha privately about the treatment plan.Miranda stepped over to the window for some air. Felix followed a moment later.“I’ve already hired a dedicated post-op nursing team,” Felix said. “You won't have to worry about the logis

Miranda’s fingers paused slightly. She looked at Mia, her voice softening but remaining firm.“Mia, Great-Grandma is getting older. She might have misspoke.”Mia tilted her head, her lips puckering. “But Great-Grandma said I’m Daddy’s only daughter.”Mrs. Young felt her heart race as she listened

Miranda stared at her phone for a few seconds, genuinely surprised. She hadn’t expected Mike to move so quickly. He had already secured the VIP suite.Samantha had already booked a flight for early the morning after next, intending to head to Hamilton for early admission, and VIP suites there truly
