Chapter 554

Author: Baby X
“There’s nothing wrong. I just need to rest a bit, then I will take Mia home.”

Miranda stepped past him without looking back.

Felix was an exceptionally perceptive man. He knew exactly what had triggered her reaction.

His gaze shifted toward the master bedroom. He remembered how much she used to love that room because of the breathtaking ocean view.

The more she had loved it back then, the more she hated it now. Especially that bed.

Half an hour later, Miranda insisted they return to the ci

    Wesley had always been proud and arrogant. Being humiliated like this by someone from the younger generation, in front of every shareholder in the room, was more than he could take.Even knowing the consequences wouldn’t be easy to bear, he still had to defend what little pride he had left.He shot to his feet, glaring at Felix before turning his anger on Miranda.“Felix, I know why you’re targeting me. Isn’t it because of this woman beside you?”Wesley let out a cold laugh.“All I did was kindly suggest that you marry someone else and have more children for the Gibson family. Your family line needs to continue. As for your ex-wife here, even if you remarry her, she won’t give you any more children. Was I wrong?”The moment Wesley finished speaking, the entire meeting room fell into a deathly silence.Everyone’s gaze landed on Miranda, then quickly shifted away, as if they were afraid of offending Felix.Wesley continued, “I’d say this not only in front of you, but even in fron

    Miranda nodded.“All right. We’ll wait for him.”Two minutes later, footsteps sounded from around the corner of the hall.Then Felix appeared in a dark suit, with Gavin and two older shareholders behind him.His gaze landed on Miranda at once, and a flash of surprise and warmth crossed his eyes.“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” he asked, his voice carrying a faint note of displeasure and concern.Miranda could only explain, “Keith called me on the way, so I came over.”Keith hadn’t seen Felix for some time. When he saw the way Felix looked at Miranda, he couldn’t help feeling secretly pleased.It seemed things between them had become quite different lately.Felix looked at Keith.Keith quickly explained, “Mr. Gibson, there’s a proposal today that requires Ms. Stone to be here in person.”Felix nodded, then looked back at Miranda, his gaze gentle and indulgent.“Don’t worry. Keith’s proposal will pass.”“Thank you,” Miranda said.In front of others, she was notice

    Under Felix’s steady gaze, Miranda suddenly realized what she had just said.She turned her face away, the tips of her ears warming.“Nothing,” she muttered, then quickly walked ahead.Behind her, Felix caught up with a smile and took her hand.“Then I’ll take that as you agreeing to be responsible for me for the rest of your life.”Cornered by him, Miranda had no choice but to look up at him.She did not answer.She only smiled, her eyes carrying a soft trace of compromise.Felix froze for a second.Then he pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.Just then, Gigi ran over to them with her leash in her mouth, her tail wagging happily.Felix took the leash in one hand and Miranda’s hand in the other, then walked with them into the distance.*On Monday, Miranda was on her way to the lab when her phone rang not long after she left home.It was Keith.“Ms. Stone, are you not coming to the board meeting today?”Miranda had seen the email he sent, but she hadn’t planne

    But Felix reached out, slipped an arm around her waist, and kissed her forehead.“So?” he asked. “Do I look good?”Miranda laughed and pushed him lightly.“Stop it. We’re supposed to be running.”After they left the house, Gigi followed along too.The two of them jogged along the path outside the gated neighborhood. The late fall morning carried a chill, but the sunlight was warm. It fell softly over them, and a thick layer of fallen leaves covered the ground, giving the quiet path a different kind of beauty.After running a little over a mile, Miranda was tired enough to slow to a walk.They sat down on a bench to rest. Leaning against Felix’s shoulder, Miranda saw a few older residents exercising not far away.For a moment, something shifted quietly in her heart.Felix followed her gaze.An older couple was walking slowly hand in hand.Felix smiled and asked, “Do you think we’ll be like that when we’re old?”Miranda’s lips curved slightly.“Maybe.”Felix suddenly took h

    “No,” she said.“Anyway, it’s getting late. We can talk in person in the next day or two. You should get some rest.”James had decided it was better to end the call.Miranda could only answer, “Okay. We’ll talk in person.”After hanging up, Miranda picked up her mug and took a sip of tea. Then she glanced at the time.It was ten.She went upstairs and heard water running from the bathroom in the guest room. Felix was showering there.Miranda went back to the study and shut down her computer.She had already showered, but she wasn’t sleepy yet, so she sat in the upstairs sitting area and planned to read for a while.A short while later, Felix walked out in a set of pajamas.When he saw her reading under the light, a smile flickered in his eyes.“Done talking to James?” he asked, clearly still teasing her.“We’re done.”Miranda looked up and shot him a glare.Felix walked toward her while drying his damp hair.The couch was huge, but instead of sitting anywhere else, he in

    Miranda was silent for a few seconds.Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s collection had been the work of her entire life. Her collection was filled with museum-quality pieces, from porcelain and paintings to other rare antiques. Every item had been carefully chosen and preserved over a lifetime.After thinking for a moment, Miranda said, “Then let’s keep it for now. In the future, we can pass it on to Mia and let her take care of it.”Felix looked at her and smiled.“Then I’ll build a private gallery for the two of you and have specialists manage and preserve everything.”Miranda froze slightly and looked up at him.“A private gallery?”Felix nodded.“A lot of the pieces in Grandma’s collection are museum-grade antiques. Ordinary storage conditions won’t be enough. A dedicated, climate-controlled gallery is necessary. In the future, anything you like can be added to it too.”Miranda really didn’t understand much about this, so she nodded.“Then I’ll leave it to you.”Just then, Mia came in h

By next week, Miranda would return to take over her own research project again.Just then, the door opened and James stepped inside.Miranda glanced at

    Another gentleman beside her also offered his congratulations. Miranda smiled politely and nodded. “Thank you.”As for Felix, she acted as if she had not heard him at all.A faint ripple passed through Felix’s eyes before his expression returned to its usual calm.The event continued onstage, shi

    Mike had already asked around in private. Felix’s visit had been scheduled in advance, but the timing was suspiciously perfect. Almost as if he had chosen to show up the moment Miranda arrived.“Could it be that he came here on purpose, because of her?” Mike wondered.“Uncle Mike, let’s go eat! I’

    “Leo has someone he likes?” Susan frowned. But Haley had told her that Leo was currently single and not seeing anyone.“Which socialite is Leo interested in?” Susan asked, unable to hide her curiosity.Sienna’s eyes flashed with hurt and anger. “Socialite? No. It’s Miranda. The person he likes is
