Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1623
Miranda accepted the glass and took a few sips, but it didn’t help much.She curled up on the couch, hugging a throw pillow as she quietly endured the ache in her lower abdomen.Felix watched her for a moment.Then he returned to the couch, wrapped one arm around her, and pulled her into his embrace, letting her lean against his chest.Miranda started to struggle, but Felix’s voice came low and gentle, leaving no room for argument.“Don’t move. Didn’t you agree to let me keep you company?”As he spoke, his broad palm covered her cold lower abdomen through the thin silk of her blouse.Miranda stiffened.The heat from his hand slowly seeped through the fabric, easing the dull ache in her stomach.She let out a soft breath, and her tense body gradually relaxed in his arms.Outside, rain beat against the windows, and the air carried a damp chill. But somehow, in the living room on this rainy night, she felt strangely safe.Felix adjusted his position so she could lean against hi

Miranda glanced at her watch.It was already nine thirty.She looked up and said, “I’m going to the study for a bit. If you’re free, take Gigi out to the garden for a walk.”A smile touched Felix’s eyes.“Sure. I’ll take care of Gigi. Go do your work.”Just then, lightning flashed outside the window, as if warning them that a heavy storm was about to roll in.Miranda quickly said, “Never mind. Don’t take her out. Just let her stay inside.”She didn’t want Gigi getting caught in the rain either.“It’s already so late. You still have work to do?” Felix suddenly asked.“Mm,” Miranda answered.Just then, another bolt of lightning split the sky, followed almost immediately by a sharp crack of thunder. Miranda startled.“You should go back,” she said to Felix.She turned to head upstairs, but before she could take a step, a warm hand closed around her wrist.“It looks like there’s going to be a storm tonight,” Felix said quietly. “Let me stay with you.”“No need. Go back and ge

In the dim shadows, Miranda’s mind had gone completely blank.By the time she came back to herself, her fingers had somehow curled tightly into the front of Felix’s shirt. Only then did she remember they were still standing by the road.Embarrassed and flustered, she pushed him away.“Are you done?” Miranda asked, lowering her eyes, irritation slipping into her voice.To her surprise, Felix let out a low laugh.“Not even close.”The night breeze brushed against Miranda’s face, clearing her head a little. She turned away, only to realize her face had gone completely red.Gavin’s car was parked less than thirty feet away.Which meant everything that had just happened had a witness.Felix noticed her embarrassment. He turned and walked toward the car.A moment later, Gavin got out of the driver’s seat and quickly flagged down a cab before leaving.Miranda froze for a second.Soon after, Felix got behind the wheel. The silver Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up beside her, smooth and

Felix gave a helpless smile. “I just wish I hadn’t made that trip so unpleasant for you.”“If you knew you were such a nuisance, why did you still follow me there?” Miranda said, annoyed.A flicker of determination crossed Felix’s eyes, along with a possessiveness he kept carefully hidden.“Even if you didn’t want me there, I still had to go.”Besides, it was not as if Miranda had only pushed him away once. No matter how many times she had done it, he had never truly backed down.Miranda was briefly speechless at his brazen answer.But when she thought about it, ever since their divorce, no matter how cold she had been to him or how deliberately she had kept her distance, Felix had never truly left her and Mia’s lives.He always found a way, and a reason, to show up in front of her again.Like a shadow she could never quite shake.“If I hadn’t gone that time, would you have ended up with Leo?” Felix suddenly asked, his voice a little muffled.Miranda froze.She thought back

Just then, the door to the private room opened, and Felix walked in.He had clearly come straight from a meeting. He was still in a formal suit, and a trace of fatigue lingered between his brows.“Sorry I’m late.”After saying that, Felix walked to Miranda’s side, pulled out the chair naturally, and sat down. Gavin then went to ask the restaurant to start serving the food.Felix seemed to sense what they had been talking about. He glanced at Miranda and asked with a smile, “Were you talking about me?”Dr. Smith laughed it off.“Yes, we were talking about the lab. Miranda mentioned that she’d like to visit the lab in Danesia when she has the chance.”Felix looked at Miranda.“Before the New Year, we can take Mia there to see the snow. You can visit the lab your father used while we’re there.”Miranda froze.“My dad’s lab is still there?”Dr. Smith answered from the side, “It is. Everything has been preserved exactly as it was. There are still many notes Eugene left behind.”

Miranda answered.“Hello?”“Are you done with work? I’m having dinner with Dr. Smith’s team tonight. Come join us.”Miranda thought for a moment.“Okay. Send me the restaurant address. I’ll come over.”To Miranda, Dr. Smith was both a mentor and a friend. More importantly, it was because of his years of accumulated research and exploration that she had found a chance to treat the blood disease at its root and eliminate the hidden risk of Mia developing it in the future.When Miranda got off work, Gavin arrived to pick her up.“Ms. Stone, Mr. Gibson was worried you’d be too tired after work, so he asked me to come get you,” Gavin said with a smile.Since he was already there, Miranda didn’t insist on driving herself.She had been overusing her eyes lately, and it really wasn’t ideal for her to drive, especially during rush hour.By the time Gavin brought her to the private dining room, Felix had been delayed by an important meeting and was still on his way.When Dr. Smith saw

A little while later, Felix sent a text. “I’m taking Mia to the restaurant for dinner. Do you want to join us?”Miranda replied with a simple “No.”Felix didn’t message again. It wasn’t until around five in the afternoon that he returned with Mia.“Mommy, Daddy took me to the zoo!” Mia said excit

In business, the deadliest moves were always made quietly.Just then, Miranda’s phone rang. She glanced at the screen. It was an unfamiliar number. She paused for a moment before picking up.“Hello? Who is this?”“Dr. Stone, this is Melvin Jones. You may not remember me.”Miranda certainly remem

Felix walked over with Ben to greet the guests. Zion stepped out first with four members of his team. Felix extended his hand. “Welcome, Dr. Declan.”Zion’s attitude was noticeably different from the last time they met. He smiled as he shook Felix’s hand. “Hi, Mr. Gibson.” Then his eyes moved to Mi

The meeting continued, and Felix forced himself to stay focused as the team presented the project updates. Every now and then, his suppressed cough would slip out.Miranda kept her head down, taking notes. Suddenly, Felix spoke up, his voice slightly hoarse. “Miranda, what are your recommendations
