Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1474
“Mr. Grant, don’t tease me like that,” Xena said, half playfully, giving Daniel a light push.Just then, Daniel noticed Felix standing near the center of the ballroom.He pinched Xena’s waist.“Want to go say hello to your old flame?”Xena’s gaze drifted toward Felix.She forced a smile.“He has someone by his side now. Why would he still remember me?”“Mr. Grant, do you want to meet Chairman Gibson?” Jude asked, eager to do Daniel a favor and expand his own connections in Hamilton’s elite circles. “I can introduce you.”Daniel’s expression stiffened slightly.He tugged at his tie and said, “Forget it. That’s not a circle we can just force our way into.”He waved a hand, his tone turning a little awkward. In his eyes, there was also a trace of fear and self-awareness he couldn’t quite hide.Although Felix didn’t move within Hamilton’s inner circle, Daniel had heard enough about Felix’s connections there.Daniel might be arrogant, but he wasn’t stupid.He knew very well tha

As Xena walked into the lobby, she straightened her back, took Daniel’s arm, and forced a smile onto her face.Since she couldn’t avoid this, she could only face it head-on.Besides, she knew Hayden would not be attending. A few days ago, the media had photographed him overseas with Sera, who was about to give birth.So tonight, the only people she had to face were Felix and Miranda. Perhaps Leo would be there too, but she had no room to back down now.She still had to survive in this circle.Even if she managed to avoid them once, she couldn’t avoid them forever. Sooner or later, she would have to face them, and she really had nothing left to lose.After seeing Felix and Miranda arrive together, Xena still refused to believe Miranda had truly let go of everything that had happened between them.There had to be resentment.There had to be something unresolved.Maybe all Xena needed was the right moment.One small push, and the relationship that looked so steady might crack al

Xena looked at herself in the mirror.Once she was dressed up, she did look elegant, almost like a goddess.But no matter how beautiful she looked, in the eyes of those powerful men, she was still just a luxury toy with a price tag, something to be bought, passed around, and eventually discarded.And yet, she knew very well that if she left Daniel, she might not even be able to maintain this glamorous life on the surface.She also knew Daniel’s temper.Before he got tired of her, there was no way she could escape.At six, Daniel’s driver was waiting outside.Xena got into the car and silently prayed that tonight’s gala was only a private gathering within Daniel’s own circle. She prayed she would not run into anyone she should not see.After all, Daniel’s private circle was full of careless rich playboys.Men at the very top, men like Felix, Hayden, and Leo, would never bother mixing with people like them.At last, Daniel’s driver stopped in front of an ultra-luxury hotel.Xe

Miranda paused.After a long moment, she finally picked up the shrimp and ate it.Across from her, the nervous anticipation in Felix’s eyes finally gave way to a faint smile.For a moment, it was as if something in him had come back to life.Miranda looked up and found him still watching her eat.“You should eat too,” she said softly.Felix smiled and nodded.“Okay.”Miranda blinked, then studied his silver hair carefully, as if she were thinking about something.Felix noticed her gaze. Almost instinctively, he raised a hand and brushed his fingers over the hair at his temple.“What are you looking at?”Miranda came back to herself and said calmly, “Would you consider treating it? We could see if there’s a way to restore your natural color. With the right specialist and treatment plan, it might be possible.”Felix froze for a few seconds.Then warmth spread through his chest.She cared about him.“Okay,” he said with a faint smile. “I’ll listen to you. If you know a spec

Miranda looked up at him.She hadn’t forgotten that he had sent someone to secretly photograph her and James, or that he had questioned her about it in the middle of the night.“So back then, you really thought James and I were together?” Miranda asked, resting her chin on one hand.Felix pushed back, still sounding stubborn.“Then tell me. Why did James give up his future at a top lab in Merika and come back for you?”Miranda brushed aside the hair near her forehead.For a moment, she couldn’t explain it either.“Did you investigate James?” she asked.“Thoroughly,” Felix admitted. “But there’s one thing I got wrong.”“What?” Miranda frowned at him.“James reminded me more than once that you were capable. I ignored him.” Regret filled Felix’s voice. “If I had realized how talented you were sooner, I never would have let Dr. Liam remove you from the team.”His voice was heavy with remorse, as if the bitterness of everything that had happened still lingered in his chest.“I w

In truth, Miranda had also been looking at properties near the school over the past couple of days.She had to admit Felix was right.Homes around that school were in extremely high demand, especially well-secured houses and luxury apartments in good neighborhoods. Most regular agents had no access to the best listings.On top of that, prices were often driven far above their actual value. If Felix had the right connections, the process would be much easier and much smoother.This time, Miranda wanted to buy a house. Ideally, it would have a large yard so Mia and Gigi would have plenty of space to play.“All right,” Miranda said with a nod. “Then please help me look for a house.”Felix smiled.“Okay. I’ll have someone start looking right away. We’ll try to get you moved in before September first.”The food arrived.Felix pushed Miranda’s favorite dishes toward her, and the conversation shifted to DE’s new research project. He wanted to hear more of her thoughts in depth, and h

“Wait.” Felix stood up abruptly, calling out to her before she reached the door.Miranda turned, waiting for him to continue.He regained his composure. “I’ll consider what you said.” Then he continued, steady but firm. “I’ll handle Xena. But understand this. If it means saving my family and prote

Sienna got up and headed toward the kitchen again. Miranda seized the moment and turned to Mrs. Gibson Sr. casually.“Grandma, do you know much about Mrs. Gibson’s side of the family? How were her parents’ health?”It was a personal question, but Mrs. Gibson Sr. didn’t hesitate. After thinking for

Hayden called out sharply, “Get up here!”The housekeeper hurried upstairs. “Yes, sir.”“Tell me the truth. Who else came here last night?” Hayden demanded, his face darkening.The housekeeper had no choice but to answer honestly. “Ms. Yates came by. She stayed in your room for about two hours be

“Go sleep in the bed,” Felix said coolly.Miranda glanced at her phone. It was just after midnight. Without hesitation, she made a decision.She was going home.Grabbing her coat and draping it over her shoulders, she picked up her phone. “No need. I’ll sleep at home.”Felix paused mid-motion, h
