Chapter 42

작가: Baby X
Sienna began to panic. “Mia, I’m sorry. I’m sorry to you and to your mom, okay? I’m really sorry.”

Mia, who hadn’t expected her aunt to apologize so humbly, blinked her big eyes and finally gave a small nod. Sienna let out a sigh of relief, but deep down she blamed Miranda.

She and Miranda had never gotten along, and after she tricked Miranda that day and caused her to fall into the water, she was certain Miranda held a grudge against her.

So, if her niece was giving her this kind of attitude

  • 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. Lat

    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

    When they stepped out of the elevator, Miranda scolded Gigi right away. “Don’t run off like that again.”Gigi blinked its innocent, wide eyes, clearly confused. Miranda had no choice but to take it home with her.“Wow, Gigi!” Mia ran over happily and wrapped her arms around Gigi’s neck, pressing h

    “Uh. Not really. I just went to see a friend.”“You’ve only just recovered. Don’t go running around,” Justin said sternly. “No matter how important it is, nothing matters more than your life.”Mike answered obediently, “I understand, Dad.”Justin gave a few more instructions before hanging up.M

    Susan rubbed her temples, her tone firm. “Sienna, you’re being far too impulsive. You and Leo are no longer possible.”“Mom.” Sienna stomped her foot, her voice full of grievance. “I’m just trying to pursue my own happiness. What did I do wrong?”“Do you really think approaching Leo this way will

    Mike insisted on walking Miranda all the way to her front door before leaving. She invited him in for a cup of tea, but he declined instead.It was already late, and Mike knew where to draw the line. As much as he wanted to stay, he did not want to give Miranda any reason for misunderstanding or pu
