Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1562
“Okay,” Miranda replied with a smile.Felix stood quietly beside her, his emotions unreadable.When the elevator reached the banquet hall, Aiden stepped out first. Thoughtfully, he held the door open for them.Miranda gave him a grateful smile, then stepped out with Felix.As Felix left the elevator, his gaze swept over Aiden. It was deep and imposing.Aiden’s heart tightened, and he immediately understood what Felix meant.Miranda walked into the reception room. Adrian and Coco had already arrived as well.Miranda made her way toward James, who was standing among the crowd. James turned and said something to her, and the two of them greeted each other naturally.Behind her, the irritation and unease in Felix’s chest began to stir again.He hated this feeling of uncertainty.He had never imagined there would come a day when he would become this insecure, like some inexperienced young man worrying over every little thing.“Mr. Gibson,” Coco and Adrian said as they came over t

All three men were brilliant in their own fields. More importantly, what they had with her was clean, new, and untouched by the past.But Felix had disappointed her before. He had hurt her before.The only reason he had been able to rebuild any kind of relationship with her was because of the bond they shared through Mia.Without Mia, things might be different.Felix lowered his gaze. The side of his wineglass reflected the rare trace of insecurity in his eyes.His wealth, his status, and his abilities all seemed to lose their weight in front of her.Because Miranda was already dazzling enough on her own.She was independent enough.She did not need to rely on anyone.Miranda had just finished thinking through a few work matters when she looked up and saw Felix holding his wineglass, staring at her.But his gaze seemed distant, as if he were looking through her at something else entirely.“What’s wrong?” Miranda asked. “Is the food not to your taste?”Felix came back to him

And this version of her was truly captivating.Felix’s throat moved slightly. He picked up the bottle of water beside him, twisted it open, and took a sip.Around six thirty, Miranda and Keith finished their discussion.Keith smiled and said, “Mr. Gibson, Ms. Stone, I’ve arranged dinner for you both at the restaurant on the third floor. Please enjoy.”“Thank you,” Felix said, giving him an appreciative look.After Keith left, Miranda stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with her arms crossed, looking out at the streetlights gradually coming on below. It was hard to tell what she was thinking.Behind her, Felix stood.As he looked at her slender figure from behind, a sudden impulse rose in him.He wanted to walk over, open his arms, and hold her.But in the end, reason won, and Felix forced the impulse down.That was the problem with being too rational. No matter how badly he wanted something, he still knew how to stop himself.Miranda glanced at her watch, then turn

Miranda sat quietly in her seat.She was indeed the youngest representative in the room. But by now, the shareholders had all made their own private inquiries. They knew her relationship with Felix had eased lately.Whether she might one day become part of the Gibson family again was something they had to take into account.“Dr. Stone truly is a rare talent,” one of the senior shareholders said. “Her contributions are not limited to our company’s consumer-applications project. Even in national-level biomedical research, she has made outstanding contributions. That is something we all admire.”“You’re too kind, Mr. Lee,” Miranda said humbly, looking at the elderly man beside her.Mr. Lee was one of Gibson Corporation’s original shareholders. Even during the turmoil after Mr. Gibson Sr. passed away, he had firmly supported Felix as the successor.Miranda knew that.Another older shareholder quickly chimed in with a smile.“Mr. Gibson, having someone like Dr. Stone by your side as

Miranda glanced at the time.There was only half an hour left, so she nodded.Felix went into the lounge, leaving the door slightly ajar.The office fell quiet.After setting an alarm, Miranda leaned back against the soft couch and closed her eyes. The drowsiness of the afternoon gradually washed over her, and before she knew it, she had drifted off.A few minutes later, Felix draped a suit jacket over her.The man who had said he was going to rest in the lounge had returned and sat back down in the office.Felix didn’t usually nap in the afternoon.His eyes had only looked red because of the alcohol. He wasn’t actually tired.Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.Miranda was startled awake by her alarm. She opened her eyes and reached for her phone, only to feel a dark gray suit jacket slip from her shoulders.She froze for a second, then looked up.Felix was sitting behind his desk, working.So he hadn’t slept at all.She was the one who had fallen asleep.Mirand

The elevator doors opened, and the two of them stepped inside.The enclosed space shut out the noise from the lobby. Felix pressed the button for his office floor, and the elevator began to rise smoothly.In the small space, the scent of alcohol on him mixed with his familiar cedar cologne, making his presence feel even stronger.Felix leaned back against the elevator wall, his head turned slightly as he watched the floor numbers change. Under the cool white light, the lines of his profile looked sharp and clean.Miranda stood on the other side, lost in thought.With a soft chime, the elevator doors opened.A female assistant was walking down the hall with a stack of documents in her arms. When she suddenly saw Felix, she quickly greeted him.“Good afternoon, Mr. Gibson.”Then she noticed Miranda and greeted her as well.“Good afternoon, Ms. Stone.”Miranda gave her a polite smile and nodded, then followed Felix toward his office.Felix stepped into the spacious office.The

“I’ll have it dry-cleaned and return it to my friend,” Felix said. After that, he took the custom-tailored, deep blue suit jacket and headed out.Mrs. Young waited until he had stepped out of the front gate before heading upstairs to tell Miranda what happened.Miranda was in her study working on

“I’ll take you home,” Leo said.“It’s fine. Go take care of your guests.”Leo’s eyes showed he wasn’t backing down. “It’s no trouble. Come on.”Miranda stepped outside. Her car was parked in the VIP lane at the entrance of the Moutin Hotel.A cold wind swept through the night. December was almos

After playing for about fifteen minutes, Mia came out of the playroom and noticed Felix was gone. A small wave of disappointment crossed her face, but she didn’t fuss. Miranda returned to her study, and just as she sat down, her phone rang. The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.She answered.

Felix stared at the photos for a few seconds. He remembered that on Wednesday he had asked Miranda whether she planned to attend the parent-child outing, and she had explicitly told him she wouldn't be attending.So why was she there with Mia?Did she say that just to keep him away, making it easi
