Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1115
Xena bit down on her lower lip and thought back to the day Felix had gone over the stock transfer with her himself.He had explained every clause personally, and at the time, she had taken it as something special. It had felt as if he were feeding her poison one sip at a time with his own hands, and she had accepted it gladly.He could have sent a lawyer. He could have had an assistant handle it. But he had done it himself, and to her, that had made it mean everything.Who could have guessed that what he had been offering her was not a spoonful of honey, but a cup of poison?Looking back now, she was sure that agreement had been full of hidden traps, all carefully designed so Felix could take everything back whenever he wanted and force her to keep giving in.Xena’s face turned paler.Then she suddenly thought of Miranda.Miranda was working in Felix’s lab now. Was this her revenge?All she had to do was come up with some convenient excuse, and Xena could be ordered in to give

Back then, he had been like a magnet to her, drawing in her eighteen-year-old heart so completely she had never stood a chance. Even now, at twenty-eight, just seeing that photo of nineteen-year-old Felix still made her heart clench with the same fierce, familiar feeling.Her phone was full of candid photos of him. But now, every one of them felt like a record of her unreturned love and all the ways she had humbled herself for him.Meeting someone too extraordinary that young wasn’t a blessing. It was the kind of heartbreak that could shape a person’s whole life.For ten years, she had done everything she could to make herself worthy of Felix. She learned piano, forced her way into elite circles, and used every means she could to get closer to his world. No one knew better than she did how hard she had fought.But none of it had ever mattered to him.Felix was like a man without a heart. She had poured herself into the role of loving him, while he had remained nothing more than a

Unable to focus on work anymore, Fiona put in for leave, grabbed her bag, and hurried out of the lab, heading straight home.The whole drive back, she was boiling with anger. Xena had managed to walk away with thirteen percent of Roger’s company so easily. Even if she never made it into the Gibson family, that alone was enough to guarantee she would never have to worry about money again. And Fiona? Roger hadn’t given her even one percent. The unfairness of it made her chest burn. She had to get home and figure out a way forward with Gloria.At Xena’s villa, a doctor and nurse had just left. Xena was lying on the couch, one hand pressed over the spot where she had gotten an injection, her eyes closed as she rested. She had spent nearly the entire past week recovering.Fiona’s call earlier had unsettled her, but she had expected this. The moment Fiona and Gloria found out about the shares, they were bound to turn on her. But now that those York Corporation shares were firmly in her

“Xena, don’t play games with me. Explain yourself. Why do you get those shares?” Fiona had completely lost her temper. All the politeness she usually showed Xena was gone, replaced by pure rage over what felt like stolen inheritance.Xena’s voice turned colder. “Fiona, since you want to know, I’ll tell you. Felix gave them to me. Dad agreed to it too.”Fiona’s eyes went wide. “What did you just say?”“Fiona, I know this’s hard for you to accept, but this was compensation from Felix,” Xena said. “You could call it a breakup settlement.”Fiona’s mind buzzed. Xena and Felix had broken up? That explained why Felix had been so cold to her earlier. So Xena really hadn’t been able to keep him after all. But using thirteen percent of the York Corporation as breakup compensation meant Fiona was the one losing out. How was she supposed to not be furious?“Xena, do you have any shame at all? You break up with Felix, and somehow you get paid off with shares from our family’s company?”“Why s

During the meeting, Fiona sat in the back row, her eyes secretly following Felix at the head of the table. He listened to each report with focused attention and never looked her way even once.How had a man like that, a powerhouse in the business world, ever fallen for Miranda in the first place? Back in college, Miranda hadn’t yet made any academic name for herself. At the time, she had even been so consumed by love that she dropped out because of him.James’s presentation was excellent, and more than once Fiona caught a flicker of approval in Felix’s expression. Watching James only made her feel more resentful. She had worked by his side for two and a half years, yet she still hadn’t earned so much as a hint of his interest.When the meeting ended, Fiona deliberately waited by the corner of the hallway, hoping Felix would notice her and come over to say hello. But when Felix passed by with Ben, he didn’t even glance in her direction. He didn’t pause for even a second.Fiona stood

The next morning, when Miranda drove out, she noticed Zac’s SUV following behind her. She didn’t object to the protection. She could have hired security of her own, but Felix’s men had been with him for years and were exceptionally reliable. With Susan still undergoing treatment on the new medication, Miranda didn’t have the time or mental energy to deal with arranging security herself.Around noon, Miranda squeezed in a video call with James to go over several civilian-sector projects. At this point, Gibson Corporation’s civilian division had already pulled far ahead of the competition. With the brain-computer interface program providing the theoretical foundation, the quality of their products was also first-rate.She had to admit that Felix had an exceptional eye for people and investments. There was a reason he had kept Gibson Corporation thriving for so many years. He had the nerve and the ability to steer it forward.At one point, James said from the other end, “I have to

“Alright, Dr. Liam. I’ll make time to attend,” Miranda replied, genuinely happy.On the other end of the line, Samantha let out a soft sigh. “Miranda, I really hope that one day I’ll see you standing on the Nobel Prize stage, bringing pride to our country.”That goal felt impossibly far away. Mira

After Miranda and Coco left the restroom, Fiona bit her lip, leaning back against the sink. She let out a self-mocking laugh. “A doctorate? She actually has a PhD now.”Nina, standing nearby, tried to comfort her. “Fiona, don’t worry. You'll be just as successful as her someday.”The jealousy and

“Today’s lunch was called so I could announce some good news,” Samantha said, her voice clear and firm. “After a unanimous vote by the academic committee, the university has decided to grant Miranda a Doctor of Medicine degree and appoint her as a visiting professor by special approval.”For a few

“Grandma, don’t change the subject,” Sienna said, raising her hand. “Anyway, if they’re talking about getting back together, I’m the first one to object.”Mrs. Gibson Sr. let out a snort. “Since when do I need your approval? This is between Felix and Miranda.”“Then you really have no chance,” Sie
