Chapter 471

Penulis: Baby X
Miranda frowned slightly. “Mrs. Gibson, I would rather not discuss my personal life.”

Susan paused, realizing only then that she no longer had any right to pry into Miranda’s private affairs. She let out a quiet sigh.

“You are right. I should not have asked.” She gave a small nod toward the house. “Go on inside. I am going to look for Mia.”

When Susan left, Miranda did not hurry to join the crowd. She remained alone in the courtyard. She looked a little solitary standing there by herself, but

    Miranda nodded.The memory came back to her too.It had been shortly after they got married. Felix had been worried she would feel too cooped up, so he had bought a private suite at the resort, just so she could come here and rest whenever she wanted.The first time they came, Miranda had worn a long white dress and run barefoot across the beach. Felix had followed behind her, carrying her shoes.That night, the two of them had sat on the sand, leaning against each other as they looked up at a sky full of stars.It had been impossibly romantic.“I remember,” Miranda said, turning to look at him with a smile. “We were so much younger then.”Felix smiled.“We’re not old now.”Miranda laughed despite herself.“Why are you so sensitive about age?”Felix tightened his hold on her hand. His gaze rested on her face, gentle and helpless all at once.“I’m not sensitive about age. I’m afraid you’ll decide you don’t want me again.”Miranda froze for a second, then laughed softly and

    Miranda couldn’t help laughing.“We’re at this age, and we’re still going on dates?”Felix took her hand and answered in a low voice, “Early thirties is the prime of life. And you’re only getting more beautiful.”Miranda was amused despite herself and tried to pull her hand back.“Stop sweet-talking me.”But Felix tightened his hold, brought her hand to his lips, and kissed it.“Please do me the honor, Dr. Stone.”Miranda thought about it for a moment, but she couldn’t think of anywhere in particular she wanted to go.“Where do you want to go?”“If you don’t have somewhere specific in mind, I’ll choose,” Felix said.Miranda looked at him, then nodded.“Okay. You choose.”After Felix’s car left the congested downtown streets, it merged onto the highway leading toward the coast.Miranda watched the beautiful sunset in the distance, and old memories slowly rose in her mind.She could guess where he was taking her.It was the bay resort just over sixty miles outside the city

    “Felix…”Miranda reached up and pushed lightly at him.“Mm?”His lips had already moved to her collarbone, his answer muffled against her skin.“I’m meeting people tomorrow.”Felix lifted his head.In the darkness, she couldn’t make out his expression, but she could feel him smiling.“Okay,” he said. “I’ll try to avoid anywhere obvious.”Before Miranda could argue, he kissed her again.Outside the window, the night deepened. Inside the room, everything slowly fell into darkness. All that remained were their breathing and their heartbeats.And his back, rising and falling like waves in the dim light.Much later, Miranda lay weakly in Felix’s arms.His kisses had turned gentle, soothing, and reluctant.“Sleep,” he murmured. “It’s Saturday tomorrow. You can sleep in.”Miranda was too tired to even open her eyes.She only answered with a faint, muffled sound.Felix let out a soft sigh and pulled her into his arms, holding her as they fell asleep together.The next mornin

    Miranda stood at the vanity, applying face cream. Curious, she glanced at Felix through the mirror.“Which specialists?”Felix walked over and named a few people.Miranda’s eyes widened slightly.Any one of those names would have been enough to make waves in the medical field. One was a pioneer in neuroscience. Another was a leader in gene therapy. There was even a National Academy member who almost never made public appearances anymore.“How did you get them to agree?” Miranda couldn’t help asking.Felix smiled.He came up behind her, braced both hands on either side of the vanity, and leaned close around her.“I have my ways,” he said, looking at her through the mirror.His lips brushed her earlobe.“I’m not chairman of the Chamber of Commerce for nothing.”Miranda didn’t move away.She looked at him in the mirror and suddenly didn’t know what to say.He knew that what she needed was not just money.Money could buy equipment. It could hire talent. It could keep her lab

    They had only been on the road for a short while when they hit a red light.Felix reached over and took Miranda’s hand.“Why are your hands so cold? Did you skip dinner?”“I ate in the cafeteria,” Miranda said.Then she rubbed her hands together and realized that late fall had really arrived.“Next time you work late, I’ll have someone send dinner to your office,” Felix said.He was worried she hadn’t eaten enough at the cafeteria.Miranda shook her head.“Don’t worry. I don’t eat much at night anyway.”Felix glanced at her but didn’t say anything else. He simply held her hand a little tighter.Miranda leaned against the window, her thoughts still on the work from earlier.The data from today was too important. She needed time to process it.Then something occurred to her, and she turned to look at Felix beside her.If he hadn’t gotten her such an important piece of equipment, her experiment might have been delayed by a year, maybe two, or even longer.In this era, scient

    Miranda glanced at her phone, then pulled her thoughts back to work.Thanks to the analyzer Felix had purchased, the parameters had already been calibrated. She urgently needed to move into the next stage of research.She put on her lab coat, walked into the lab, pulled on a pair of gloves, and went straight to the new equipment.For the next two hours, she and Adrian threw themselves completely into the experiment.The analyzer was even more precise than expected, and the data it captured was extremely accurate.At four in the afternoon, Miranda was analyzing a set of data when her fingers suddenly froze.On the screen, one of the curves showed an unusual fluctuation.Miranda quickly typed on the keyboard and pulled up more data for comparison. Her eyes stayed fixed on the screen, unblinking, and for a moment, she almost forgot to breathe.Ten minutes later, she suddenly stood up.Her chair rolled back behind her.“Adrian,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “Come look

    That gentle tone in her voice made Felix’s expression darken slightly.Miranda set her phone down and walked to the door. “You should head back. I’m going to rest.”Since he had taken care of their daughter that evening, her attitude toward him was still reasonably polite.“Get some rest,” Felix

    Fiona’s pen scraped harshly across the page, leaving a deep, jagged mark through her notes. She lifted her head and glared at Miranda, who was calmly explaining her ideas. A tight, burning jealousy churned in Fiona’s chest.“I believe synaptic regeneration theory,” Miranda said in a steady, profess

    Miranda handed the backpack to Felix. His dark, steady gaze lingered on her face for a few seconds.She didn’t look like someone who had barely slept. In fact, there was a healthy glow to her. Fresh from waking up, her complexion was warm and rosy.Miranda watched as Felix carried Mia into the ele

    Mrs. Young was startled. She had not expected Felix to bring this up on his own. “Yes,” she said. “Mia did undergo a lung lavage procedure.”“Why didn’t you notify me?” Felix’s gaze sharpened. “You should have told me.”At the time, Mrs. Young was still working for him as his housekeeper. As his e
