Chapter 521

작가: Baby X
Felix’s gaze darkened, and his Adam’s apple moved slightly, but he didn’t say a word. He did, however, walk out with the coffee still in his hand.

When the door closed behind him, Miranda stood at her desk and clenched her teeth. “Jerk.”

She muttered the word under her breath.

After a moment, she took a long breath and patted her cheeks firmly. She still had work to finish. She refused to waste time or energy on something so pointless.

When she returned from her rounds, she found a takeout c

    “Get some rest,” Miranda said.She reached for the close button.Outside the elevator, Felix’s voice sounded especially clear in the quiet hallway.“Miranda, I meant everything I said today.”Miranda’s body stiffened slightly. Then she pressed the button and let the elevator doors close without saying anything.*That night, in a mansion in an upscale neighborhood, Wesley had been in a bad mood ever since he got home.He had wanted to call his cousin Susan and complain, but when he remembered that Miranda was her former daughter-in-law, he held himself back.Still, he had embarrassed himself at the shareholder meeting today. At his age, it wasn’t the kind of humiliation he could easily swallow.When Melanie Zimmer saw the look on her husband’s face after he came home, she had asked him several times what was wrong. But Wesley refused to say anything.Now it was already eleven o’clock, and he was still downstairs drinking alone.Melanie put on a robe and came downstairs.“

    “Let go,” Miranda said softly.Felix released her hand right away and only took the glass from her. He drank the water slowly.After finishing it, he still looked visibly uncomfortable. His voice was a little hoarse and tired.“Can I lie down here for a while?”“Go ahead,” Miranda said.There was a thin sheen of cold sweat at his temples and between his brows. It didn’t look like he was pretending.Miranda went to the closet in the bedroom and found a blanket for him.Felix lay back on the couch with a throw pillow under his head and closed his eyes.Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang.Keith had personally brought the antacids over.He asked with concern, “Is Mr. Gibson all right?”Miranda nodded.“He’s okay.”After closing the door, Miranda poured another glass of warm water and took two pills out of the package.“Take these before you sleep.”Felix slowly opened his eyes.He sat up against the couch, took the pills from Miranda, and swallowed them with the water she

    Just as Felix finished the wine, a server passed by with a tray of glasses and nearly bumped into Miranda.Miranda instinctively stepped aside.At that moment, Felix’s hand settled lightly at her waist.The gesture looked casual, but his presence was impossible to ignore. There was a quiet possessiveness in it.Miranda stiffened and looked up at him.Felix’s expression remained perfectly natural.“Are you okay?”To everyone else, it probably looked like an ordinary gesture.But Miranda knew it was not.This man was using his actions to tell her that he had already begun exercising the right he had just fought for.“Mr. Gibson and Dr. Stone really do make a striking pair,” the middle-aged man from earlier said with a flattering smile.Miranda’s heartbeat slipped out of rhythm.After the man left, she still pushed Felix away. At least in public, she didn’t want things between them to look too intimate.Felix was sensible enough to give her space.After all, everything he ha

    “I want the same chance James, Mike, and Leo have,” Felix said. His breathing was slightly uneven, and his gaze stayed locked on hers. “Whatever right they have to pursue you, I hope you’ll give me that right too.”He had lowered himself completely.His tone carried an almost humble plea, yet his gaze held hers with such force that she had nowhere to hide.It wasn’t that Miranda hadn’t noticed his feelings lately.She had.But the old wounds were still there, and after three years of living divorced and independent, she had grown used to being on her own.Stepping into a relationship again required courage.“Are you drunk?” Miranda asked, trying to make him come back to his senses.He had drunk most of the bottle of wine just now, and that was on top of what he had drunk at lunch. Miranda couldn’t be sure he was completely sober.“No. I’m perfectly sober.”Felix shook his head, his eyes even more serious than before.“I only need you to nod. Let me back into your world, Mira

    “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

    Mike must have heard the faint hitch in her breathing.Miranda let out a helpless laugh. “It’s my friend’s wedding today. The hall was too loud, so I ran outside to take the call.”“How have you been lately?”“I’m all right. What about you?”“I’m—ah—” Mike let out a sharp, restrained sound of pa

    Miranda had just settled into her car when her phone rang. It was Keith.She answered, “Hello, Keith.”“Ms. Stone, you haven’t left yet, have you?” Keith asked.“I’m still at the entrance.”“Could I ask you to come back up for a moment?” he said. “There’s an urgent investment matter we need to d

    Leo’s eyes swept quickly through the crowd, searching for Miranda. When he spotted her standing with the DE team, he slipped one hand into his pocket and walked toward her with effortless elegance.“Hi, Mr. Lincoln,” Ben greeted him with a smile.“Mind if I borrow Dr. Stone for a moment?” Leo aske

    Miranda’s smile froze for a few seconds.“Daddy will definitely want to see me perform. Mommy, let’s go home and practice.” Mia tugged her toward the car with bright excitement.When they got home, Mia washed her hands, ate some fruits, and then climbed onto the piano bench to practice.
