Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1546
“There’s nothing I can’t say.” Felix’s gaze darkened slightly. “The reason isn’t complicated.”Miranda looked back at him.Felix leaned forward a little, bringing his eyes level with hers.His deep gaze locked on her as he said, word by word, “It was because of you.”Miranda froze.Her fingers tightened unconsciously around the glass.She hadn’t expected him to say it so directly.But she didn’t think it had anything to do with her.Felix seemed to realize that his words had put pressure on her.He smiled faintly.“But it wasn’t your fault. I was under too much stress at the time. I wasn’t sleeping well, and I didn’t take care of myself. That’s all.”Felix took a sip of water, his throat moving slightly.“The day you were kidnapped, Mike got to you in time. He took a knife for you and protected you. You were crying, begging me to save him. I carried you into the car and took you to his side. And in that moment…”His hand on the table clenched into a fist without him realiz

Felix drove while Miranda gave directions.In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the restaurant.The noon sun was harsh. After getting out of the car, Miranda raised a hand to block the direct sunlight.Just then, another hand appeared above her head, shielding her from it.Miranda looked up.Felix smiled. With the sunlight behind him, his face looked even more striking.“Let’s go.”Miranda walked into the restaurant’s courtyard.There were quite a few people today, but luckily, two tables were still open.Several of the diners were colleagues from the lab. The tables that had been laughing and chatting a moment ago went strangely quiet the second Felix and Miranda walked in.Miranda could feel several pairs of eyes on them.Felix was simply too recognizable.After they sat down, the groups that had been talking loudly just moments ago immediately lowered their voices and switched to whispers.After Miranda ordered, Felix added two more dishes.Then he poured her a gl

Mia nodded obediently and went back to playing.Felix poured Miranda a glass of water.Miranda happened to be thirsty, so she took it from him.“Thank you.”Felix’s gaze rested on her.“Miranda, research is meaningful work. It’s important work. Don’t feel guilty just because you can’t always be by Mia’s side.”Miranda froze.Felix continued, “She may not fully understand it now, but as she grows up, she’ll realize that her mom is doing something truly remarkable.”Miranda hadn’t expected him to see through her so easily.But his words did comfort her.“One day, she’ll be proud of you,” Felix said. “And you’ll become one of the most valuable examples she has as she grows up.”Miranda was stunned again.His words carried encouragement and strength. More than that, they gave her a sense of support she had not expected.All this time, she had been trying to find a balance between her career and her role as a mother. Sometimes, when too much of her time went into work, she felt

Felix hadn’t even drunk that much tonight.As far as Miranda remembered, he had only had two glasses of red wine.But no matter what he meant by those words, Miranda didn’t want to respond to them right now.She frowned.“It’s late. You should go back.”Miranda opened the door.Gigi suddenly rushed out and began circling excitedly around their feet.Felix reached down and rubbed her head, then looked up at Miranda.“I’ll take Gigi downstairs with me.”Miranda was speechless.But seeing Gigi act as if she understood, shamelessly circling around Felix, Miranda could only give a small hum of agreement.The next morning, Miranda went to visit James.James was recovering well, and his energy had returned to normal. His assistant had even brought work to his hospital room.Miranda wanted to tell him to rest, but she knew how James was when it came to work. He pursued perfection in everything. If she forced him to do nothing but rest, he would only end up worrying about work inst

“James risked himself to save me this time. That’s a huge debt. I need time to think about the right way to thank him, but it definitely won’t be the way you’re implying.”Felix’s eyes brightened at once.“I understand.”He had been overthinking things. He had also been too impatient and pushed her too hard.Inside the elevator, Miranda pressed the button for the twenty-eighth floor.Felix didn’t press the twenty-seventh, so she reached over and pressed it for him.“Do you still have any sleeping pills at home?” Felix suddenly asked. “Give me another pack.”Miranda turned to look at him, surprise flashing in her eyes.“You finished the ones I gave you last time?”A faint smile flickered in Felix’s eyes.“What? Is that a problem?”“You should stop taking sleeping pills and go see a doctor instead,” Miranda said seriously. “Your condition is clearly worse than I thought. I told you before, you can’t overuse sleeping pills.”She really wasn’t joking.Was this man treating sle

Mia also gave Felix the birthday card she had made herself.Felix looked at the words Mia had carefully written, stroke by stroke.“Daddy, happy birthday. I’ll love you forever and ever.”His eyes grew slightly wet.Looking at his precious little girl, he suddenly realized that she had really grown up. She was no longer the tiny child who always needed him to hold her and coax her.He reached out and gently rubbed the top of her head.“Thank you, sweetheart.”After nine, it was time for Miranda to leave.The garden had been decorated beautifully that night, and Mia still didn’t want to go home, so Miranda let her stay.She picked up her bag and walked out first.She had barely stepped outside when she heard footsteps behind her.When she turned around, she saw Felix following her with a gift bag in his hand.“Can I catch a ride?” he asked with a smile. Then he added, “I drank tonight.”Miranda nodded.“Get in.”Felix walked naturally to the passenger side, opened the doo

Hayden sent another message. “Xena, when are you coming back? Do you want me to fly over and keep you company?”“No need. I’ll be back in two days,” Xena replied.Hayden stared at the message, and a wave of disappointment washed over him. He knew Xena only wanted the person she cared about at her

Leo’s smile froze for a moment. Then he let out a quiet sigh. “Is it because your marriage with Felix ended so badly? Did it make you lose faith in marriage altogether?”Miranda thought for a few seconds before shaking her head. “It is not just that. Yes, the marriage was painful, but the truth is

Melvin, however, kept his face perfectly calm even as irritation churned beneath it. He was a vice president of Gibson Corporation, yet Miranda had publicly shut him down in front of every shareholder. She had given him no room to save face.Felix was not entirely comfortable either, but his voice

“I’m heading to the boardroom,” Coco said.“That’s where the shareholders are meeting. What are you doing in there?” Fiona grabbed her arm.“Miranda is giving the presentation. I’m going in to help.” Coco paused, then lifted a brow at her. “Hold on. You really didn’t know the shareholders came her
