Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1646
Out of the corner of her eye, Melanie saw that Miranda was looking at her.She sighed even more deliberately.“Before Susan’s husband passed away, I went to see him too. His final wish was for Felix to have a big family. He even said three sons would be best, though at the very least, there should be one.”“Exactly,” the wealthy woman agreed. “With a family this powerful, how can there not be a son?”“What a shame. It’s been almost ten years, and his wish still hasn’t been fulfilled.” Melanie sighed again. “And I heard from Susan that Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s final wish was the same. She hoped the Gibson family would have more children too. She wanted a grandson. If that never happens, wouldn’t both of them have left this world with regret?”Melanie’s voice was not especially loud, but it was clear enough for Miranda to hear.Miranda’s hand curled slightly on her lap.She had heard Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s final words with her own ears.She hadn’t expected Felix’s father to have wished for t

After the representatives from the Vice President’s office left, Miranda finally took Mia over.Felix crouched down in front of his daughter and took her hand.“Come with Daddy and say goodbye to Great-Grandma.”Mia followed him quietly, while Miranda stayed beside them.Felix helped Mia place a white rose beside Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s portrait. Then he stood with her for a moment of silence.After that, Miranda stepped forward and quietly said her own goodbye.Just then, Felix turned to her and said in a low voice, “I’d like Mia to stay with me.”Miranda nodded.Mia should stay by his side. After all, she was part of the Gibson family.“I’ll wait outside, then,” Miranda said.Felix parted his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he held it back.Miranda was not his wife anymore.Today, she had only come as a guest paying her respects.After Miranda turned and left, Mia held her father’s hand and stood with him in the receiving line.Many of the guests notic

For the rest of the day, Felix was busy.Miranda didn’t go over to his place and disturb him.It wasn’t until around ten that night that she received a text from him. He said he wouldn’t be coming back to the villa tonight and would be staying at the Gibson estate.Miranda stared at the message, her emotions complicated.Mia had already fallen asleep, but Miranda couldn’t sleep.Tomorrow was Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s funeral.Memories of Mrs. Gibson Sr. kept coming back to her. Mrs. Gibson Sr. had always been kind and accepting. She had never blamed Miranda, nor had she ever spoken a harsh word to her.Then Miranda thought about how peacefully Mrs. Gibson Sr. had passed, without much pain.That had been Felix’s decision too. He had chosen not to put his grandmother through unnecessary suffering. He had allowed her to pass naturally, with dignity.As for Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s final wish…Miranda’s eyes flickered in the dark.A clear, firm thought slowly rose in her heart.With Felix’s s

Felix crouched down in front of Mia and looked at her, his eyes filled with tenderness and a deep, quiet love.“How was school? Do you have homework?”“Yeah. I can handle it,” Mia said with a nod.She seemed more sensible by the day.Mrs. Young walked over and asked, “Sir, should I make you something simple to eat?”Felix nodded.“Yes. Thank you.”Miranda didn’t come downstairs.She let Felix spend some time with Mia, and let Mia keep him company too. Right now, he needed something to hold on to, and his daughter was probably the strongest reason he had to keep looking forward.Mrs. Young soon brought over a bowl of pasta, and Felix ate a little while keeping Mia company.At ten, Felix took Mia upstairs and helped her get ready for bed.“Daddy, can you tell me a story?” Mia asked softly.Felix looked at Miranda.Miranda nodded.“Stay with her for a while.”Miranda left Felix in the primary bedroom with Mia and went to sit in the study for a bit.At ten twenty, it was ti

When Miranda got home, it wasn’t yet time to pick Mia up from school.She went into the study and sat on the couch in a daze, thinking about the past and worrying about how the Gibson family was holding up.That afternoon, after picking Mia up, Miranda did her best to keep her emotions under control.Mia was still young.Miranda would let Felix come home and tell her what had happened.The next morning, after dropping Mia off at school, Miranda didn’t go to the lab. She sat on the couch with her phone in hand, thinking about calling Felix to ask if there was anything she could help with.But then she thought of Felix.With him there, they probably didn’t need her.Around two thirty that afternoon, Miranda was talking to Mrs. Young about what had happened at the Gibson estate. Mrs. Young also felt that everything had happened too suddenly.Just then, they heard a car outside.Mrs. Young immediately stood and looked toward the garage.“Ma’am, I think Mr. Gibson is back.”Mira

Miranda stiffened.She looked at the man holding her.Felix had always seemed so strong, as if there was nothing in the world he couldn’t handle.But now, he looked helpless, almost like a child.Miranda’s heart ached with him.She was grieving too, but death was the one thing no one could fight.All she could do was give him a shoulder to lean on when he needed it.Then she felt a faint warmth soak into the fabric at her shoulder.His tears.Miranda slowly raised her hand and gently patted his back, trying to comfort him.“Grandma’s leaving us,” he said softly.His voice was very low, but the grief in it was unbearable.The sorrow Miranda had been holding back broke loose too. Her tears fell silently.Just then, Susan opened the door and stepped out, her eyes red.“Come in.”Miranda and Felix followed her into the room.The first thing they heard was Sienna’s broken sobs.On the hospital bed, Mrs. Gibson Sr. lay peacefully, as if she had simply fallen asleep.Only sh

But Miranda knew Felix had probably only been humoring Mia. In his heart, Mia had never mattered as much as Xena.Miranda crouched down and straightened Mia’s collar. “Your dad is very busy. He was probably held up at work.”Mia’s lips pushed into a pout, the disappointment plain on her face. “I r

“The new drug’s clinical results look promising. We are still a little short of what we ideally hoped for, but every patient responds differently. Three early-stage patients have already made a full recovery, and that alone is a miracle.”Miranda nodded and steadied her emotions. When it came to he

“I am so sorry, Dr. Warren,” Miranda apologized at once.“It’s alright.” Dr. Warren gave her a kind smile and stepped aside.Miranda ended up standing almost shoulder to shoulder with Felix. Her back went rigid, and the familiar cedar scent he carried made it hard for her to breathe normally.Whe

“Looks like Felix is in trouble.”Miranda paused for a moment before opening the link. The headline read: “Gibson Corporation Backing York Corporation’s IPO, Allegedly Involved in Secret Bribery of Regulators.”Miranda frowned. She could only think that Felix deserved it.Sophie sent another mess
