Author: Baby X
Felix nodded slightly and stepped out of the living room and into the garden with Hayden. The long table looked beautiful under the warm lights, with polished cutlery and sparkling glasses set neatly on top.

“Leo went down to the wine cellar. I told him to bring up the best bottles he has,” Hayden said brightly, trying to keep the mood light.

He could keenly sense that a real crack was forming in their friendship, and he was doing his best to smooth things over.

Xena sat beside him and said

    Sophie gave her a mischievous smile.“Who knows? Maybe after a few drinks at the party, you and Felix can go home and work on that hormonal balance.”“Sophie!”Miranda’s face flushed again from her teasing.After lunch, Miranda returned to the lab.That afternoon, she took Adrian to Zion’s lab for a research exchange. They stayed busy until eight that night before Miranda finally drove home.She had already told Mrs. Young not to make dinner for her. She had eaten at the lab cafeteria.Felix had also called earlier to tell her he was taking Mia to the Gibson estate for dinner and would be home later.As soon as Miranda got home, Mrs. Young said, “Mr. Gibson took Mia to the Gibson estate.”“Mm. I know,” Miranda replied, then went upstairs.Mrs. Young stood there for a moment, wondering if she should take the night off and come back early the next morning.Around nine, there was movement from the garage. Gigi immediately wagged her tail and ran over to greet them.When Mrs. Y

    The next morning, Miranda handed Mia over to Felix and went straight to the lab.At noon, Sophie happened to be running errands nearby, so the two of them met up for lunch.After some girl talk, Sophie started complaining that her child had recently been sick. After several nights of staying up, her sleep schedule was completely wrecked.“Having a kid really takes everything out of you,” Sophie complained.Miranda understood that feeling all too well.Motherhood had a way of stretching even a single day apart into something unbearably long. One small sign of illness was enough to set every nerve on edge.“It’ll get better when they’re a little older,” Miranda comforted her.Sophie propped her chin on her hand and looked up at her.“I’m about to make a doctor’s appointment. My cycle has been all over the place lately. Staying up late has completely thrown it off.”At that, Miranda added, “I’ve been under a lot of pressure lately too. Mine is a week late, but I’m not planning to

    Miranda pushed the door open and saw Mia treating Felix’s bed like a trampoline, bouncing up and down on it.Felix was leaning against the foot of the bed with an iPad in his hand, a fond, indulgent smile on his face.“Mia, come down. It’s late,” Miranda said helplessly as she walked in.“Mommy, Daddy’s bed is so big. Can we all sleep in Daddy’s room tonight?” Mia asked, her little face flushed from jumping.Miranda choked for a second, then reached out to her.“Come here. Mommy will carry you.”Felix set down the iPad and picked Mia up first.“All right. Mommy’s right. It’s time for bed. You have school tomorrow.”Mia pouted a little.“Okay.”Felix sat her down and helped her put on her slippers.“Daddy will walk you back.”Mia nodded and walked ahead holding Felix’s hand.Miranda gathered her hair to one side and followed behind them.Felix walked them all the way back to Miranda’s bedroom.Mia climbed obediently into bed and picked up a picture book to look at.Seein

    Miranda felt a little awkward.“Wouldn’t that be inappropriate? Chairman Lowe and his family aren’t exactly close friends of mine.”“I want you to come with me,” Felix said, looking at her with serious expectation in his eyes. “Going alone would be boring.”Over the past three years, they had attended a few events together, but Miranda had always ignored him at those functions. So now, he found himself looking forward to appearing with her in public again.Just then, Miranda’s phone rang.She glanced at the screen. It was Coco calling.For some reason, Miranda suddenly had a feeling that this call had something to do with the invitation.She answered.“Hello, Coco.”“Miranda, I just picked up a package for you from the front desk. There’s an envelope inside. It looks like an invitation. Do you want me to bring it over?”“Open it and take a look for me,” Miranda said.After Coco opened it, she told her it was indeed an invitation to Chairman Lowe’s fiftieth wedding anniversar

    If Felix remembered correctly, things between them had been especially tense around that time.She had even been trying to limit his time with Mia, so his mood had been terrible for almost the entire month. Naturally, his temper hadn’t been great either.“So you still keep tabs on me in your spare time,” Felix said with a faint smile.Miranda denied it at once.“I’m not that bored.”Felix’s smile deepened.“That’s fine. You can ask around about me all you want. And if you’d rather hear it from me directly, you can ask me anytime.”Miranda could not help laughing.“I’m really busy. I’m not interested in your gossip.”“Then do you want to know where the engineering team I fired ended up?”Miranda had been about to say no, but her curiosity was suddenly piqued.“Where?”“They went to one of my competitors and took the core design files with them,” Felix said honestly. “My legal team fought them in court for half a year.”Then he narrowed his eyes slightly, a teasing look in t

    “Even though I don’t fully understand your research, can you tell me about the breakthrough your team made?” Felix asked, genuine curiosity in his eyes.Miranda’s eyes brightened too. She set down her glass and thought for a moment.“Our team recently got some promising breakthrough data from the animal models,” she said. “It supports the approach I proposed. If the next round of preclinical research and early clinical trials go smoothly, we may be able to see real therapeutic effects in patients.”Admiration flashed in Felix’s eyes.“Dr. Declan mentioned your theory to me,” he said with a smile. “He said it has the potential to change the early treatment of neurodegenerative diseases at the root. It might even have a shot at an Aurora Prize nomination.”At the mention of the Aurora Prize, Miranda pressed her lips together.Those words carried enough weight to move any scientist.They represented more than personal honor. They were the highest recognition a research breakthrough

    Miranda frowned and turned back to the lab to look through the data on the flash drive.Spring had arrived, and everything was beginning to bloom again. Over the weekend, Miranda bought supplies for a picnic, planning to take Mia out to relax at the park. She had decided on Thursday to spend Satu

    Miranda stayed in the lab the entire night. By the time she finished recording all the data, the sky outside had already turned pale with dawn.When she finally stood up, a wave of dizziness hit her so hard she almost fainted. She lay down on a nearby chair to rest for a bit but ended up falling as

    Miranda glanced at the time. “It’s getting late, Grandma. I should take Mia home.”Mrs. Gibson Sr. smiled and patted her hand. “Don’t rush off yet. I have something for you.” She reached for a beautifully carved wooden box beside her. “This is a bracelet I picked out especially for you,” Mrs. Gib

    Miranda froze for a moment. “Who?”Samantha smiled. “Felix, of course. None of this would’ve been possible without his generous funding.”Miranda’s smile stiffened. Felix was a businessman. Every move he made came with strings attached. She felt no gratitude toward him.Later, James came over to
