“Watch out!”

A figure lunged in from the side and shoved her out of the way. Miranda stumbled forward and dropped to her knees on the pavement. A heavy thud sounded directly behind her.

Terrified, she whipped around. Three yards from where she had been standing, Leo was lying on his side on the ground. His arm had scraped across the asphalt, leaving a shocking trail of blood, and the sleeve of his suit jacket was torn wide open.

“Leo!” Miranda didn’t even feel the pain in her knees as she scr

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 1283

    As the two most important groomsmen, Felix and Leo were seated in the front row at the head table. Both of them were genuinely happy for their friend.Xena and Peter were seated a little farther back. Xena’s eyes were fixed on the ballroom doors too, but there was resentment buried in her gaze. She hadn’t forgotten the humiliation Sera had dealt her, and she had no intention of forgetting it now.At that moment, the heavy ballroom doors slowly opened.The bride appeared in a white wedding gown, her arm linked through her father’s as she stepped gracefully into view. Beneath the veil, her delicate features and shy smile could just be made out.As Hayden watched his bride walk toward him one step at a time, his eyes suddenly turned red. Excitement and love lit up his handsome face all at once.Amid the applause and cheers filling the room, the bride kept walking steadily toward the groom waiting for her on the stage.Seated where he was, Felix followed her with his eyes, but his fo

    And yet he wouldn’t even spare her a glance. Faced with that absolute indifference, everything she had thought and hoped felt ridiculous and pointless.Just then, Peter noticed her distraction and gave her arm a displeased pinch.Xena snapped back to herself at once. She pulled her gaze away, looked up at Peter with studied softness, and tightened her hold on his arm as if he were the only piece of driftwood left in her life.“Peter, let’s go in,” she said in a deliberately sweet voice.Peter liked that version of her well enough. He slipped an arm around her waist. “Come on. I’ll introduce you to a few people.”Xena flashed him a practiced, alluring smile, but as she turned her eyes, they landed on another gaze instead.Leo’s.He was standing with a drink in hand, talking with a few guests. When he happened to look her way, their eyes met head-on.The smile on Xena’s face froze. A rush of embarrassment and humiliation rose in her chest.If Felix was the man she could never ha

    A shadow passed through Felix’s eyes. He typed back, “All right. I’ll take care of it. And get some rest when you can. Don’t push yourself too hard.”Miranda didn’t reply again. Felix put his phone away, then walked over to Hayden, who was in the middle of talking with guests, and gave his shoulder a light pat.Hayden turned to look at him, and Felix passed on Miranda’s message in an even tone. “She asked me to congratulate you and Ms. Yates for her. She won’t be able to make it in person.”Hayden smiled in understanding. “That’s okay. Her research is too important to put on hold. Once things settle down for her, we can get together another time.”Felix nodded. “I’ll tell her.”Just then, another group of guests came in from the elevator lobby. Felix and Hayden looked up instinctively.Peter had arrived, with Xena on his arm.The red sequined mermaid gown Xena was wearing was impossible to miss under the lights. She clung tightly to Peter’s arm, but the moment she saw the two me

    With that, she buried her face in Peter’s chest, her shoulders trembling lightly. “It’s you, Peter. You’re the only one who’s ever really been good to me. You’re the only one who’s given me something to lean on. If Felix weren’t still tying me down with that contract, I’d want nothing more than to stay as far away from him as possible for the rest of my life.”Peter knew her words were only half true, but they were still pleasing to hear. Much of the anger on his face faded. He patted her on the back, his tone softening.“All right, all right. Why are you crying? Now that you’re with me, you don’t need to be afraid of anyone. I’ll make sure everyone knows that as long as you’re with me, no one gets to look down on you.”Xena bit down on her teeth in secret. It looked like there was no getting out of this. She was going to that wedding whether she wanted to or not.“All right. I’ll do as you say. I’ll go change into my gown right now. I won’t embarrass you.” She lifted her face, wip

    Three days later, the wedding between the Hayden and Yates families was held in grand style at the most prestigious hotel ballroom in Atlantis City.As two of Hayden’s closest friends since childhood, Felix and Leo arrived early. One stood on each side of the groom, helping him welcome the steady stream of guests.Felix was dressed in a perfectly tailored dark gray suit. His silver-gray hair was styled with effortless precision, and even his usually cold features seemed softer today. When guests came up to speak with him, he was willing to exchange a few extra words. He still spoke with his usual brevity, but he remained impeccably courteous.Leo, meanwhile, looked as polished and elegant as ever. His light-colored suit made him seem even more refined, and his warm smile put people at ease immediately.Standing beside the confident groom, the two men made a striking contrast. One cool and steady, the other gentle and polished. Together, the three of them looked like they had steppe

    Leo knew very clearly that from this point on, what he felt for Miranda would remain nothing more than the care and concern of a friend. He wouldn’t allow himself to hope for anything more.Miranda stepped into the elevator holding Mia’s hand, and Felix followed them in. While Mia busied herself pressing the floor button, Felix reached over and pressed 27.“Thank you for being understanding with Hayden tonight,” Felix said in a low voice. Beneath his thick lashes, his gaze rested on Miranda, as if quietly searching her face. “He’s been wanting a chance to apologize to you.”Miranda answered calmly, “I’ve already let the past go.”A flicker of remorse crossed Felix’s eyes. If Hayden hadn’t told him, he never would have known there had been tension between them too.“I’m sorry. Back then, you went through a lot because of me.” His voice was low, full of self-reproach.The failed marriage still touched something in Miranda, but not much anymore.Once, all those hurts had been like

    “I only need the original data,” Miranda said calmly, meeting Fiona’s eyes. “Now.”The air seemed to freeze.Fiona clenched her teeth, turned around, and yanked a file from the folder, slamming it onto the table. “Take it.”Miranda carefully checked it, then put it away. “Thank you.”As she turn

    Seeing Mia happily clutch the dinosaur toy, Miranda’s suspicions hardened into certainty. That night, Xena hadn’t just answered the call, she and Felix had been together. For all Miranda knew, they might even have been sharing the same bed.“Ms. Stone, Mr. Gibson said he’ll be staying for dinner, s

    Mrs. Lloyd’s voice carried just enough to be heard clearly by the people nearby. Xena’s fingers tightened around her champagne glass, her nails digging into her palm.“The researcher behind the treatment? So it’s her. Incredible,” one guest exclaimed.“Yes. My son was gravely ill at the time, and

    After walking Miranda downstairs, Leo asked if she was heading home to pick up Mia. He wondered if she could also bring Vivian over for dinner since he was tied up for a while.“Of course. You can pick her up at eight-thirty,” Miranda said readily.Having the girls together made mealtimes livelier
