Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1353
Peter forced out a dry laugh, trying to save face.“I was only asking casually. With such a large sum of money involved, it’s always better to be cautious.”Felix’s cold gaze fixed on Peter’s face.“Questioning a Chamber decision based on nothing but personal speculation, without a single piece of evidence, is not only a sign of distrust toward me as chairman. It is also an insult to every expert who took part in the review. Mr. Warren, I suggest you watch your words.”Peter’s expression darkened.He was already in his sixties, yet here he was, being lectured in public by a man who wasn’t even thirty.It was humiliating.Before he could argue back, Felix gave him another cold glance.“If you continue making baseless accusations and spreading false statements, the Chamber reserves the right to pursue legal action.”His tone remained calm, but the warning in it was unmistakable.The looks around them instantly carried a little more respect and fear.Beside Peter, Xena bit down

“What’s wrong? Got excited seeing your old lover again?” Peter suddenly lowered his head, his tone carrying a hint of displeasure.Xena snapped back to herself.Only then did she realize her jealousy had shown through her hand. She had tightened her grip on Peter’s arm without even noticing.She quickly forced a bright, charming smile and leaned a little closer to him.“Peter, don’t you know who’s in my heart?”Peter gave a cold snort.Still, he had been looking for an opportunity to test Felix, so he led Xena toward them.Xena’s heart skipped.She hadn’t expected Peter to walk straight toward Felix.She took a deep breath.Tonight, she absolutely couldn’t show weakness in front of Felix and Miranda.“Chairman Gibson, Dr. Stone, what a coincidence,” Peter said first, his voice loud enough to draw the attention of those nearby. “Perfect timing. We can talk about the establishment of this special fund.”Felix’s brows tightened slightly.Miranda turned toward him with a calm

The car drove smoothly toward the venue for tonight’s dinner.In the distance, the setting sun cut sharp lines through the city.Miranda didn’t want to dwell on the past.From now on, whatever relationship existed between her and Felix would be built on a new foundation of cooperation.Felix didn’t try to bring up anything else either.He understood her.She didn’t want to revisit their old memories with him.That realization sent a brief, suffocating ache through his chest.But it disappeared just as quickly.Before long, the car arrived at the hotel where the dinner was being held.A valet stepped forward and opened the door.Felix got out first.When a manager saw him, he immediately hurried over with respect.“Chairman Gibson, you’re here.”Felix nodded and waited for Miranda to get out.Once Miranda stepped out of the car, the two walked side by side onto the red carpet and toward the brightly lit banquet hall.Their arrival immediately drew glances from all around

Miranda’s gaze settled on a pale champagne satin gown.The cut was simple, with no unnecessary embellishments, yet it carried an effortless elegance.She said to the manager, “I’ll try this one.”“Of course.”The manager immediately arranged for Miranda to try it on.When Miranda stepped out, the manager’s eyes lit up.She had chosen well.The gown fit her perfectly. It was not overly grand, but it brought out her refined, intelligent grace in just the right way.“This suits you beautifully,” the manager praised sincerely.Then she called over the makeup artist to do Miranda’s hair and makeup for the evening.Miranda cooperated quietly.When she opened her eyes again, the woman in the mirror looked brighter, softer, and a little more alluring.At twenty-eight, she had shed the awkwardness of youth, yet still carried its freshness. With the delicate makeup enhancing her features, there was now a mature charm to her as well.Miranda looked at herself in the mirror.There wa

A little later, Miranda went into her office and saw an email from the military confirming that the first round of technical handover would begin next Wednesday.For the next three months, Miranda would focus on completing the transfer of the brain-computer interface project.After that, her schedule would loosen up a little.Summer break was coming soon, and she could finally make up for some of the time she had missed with Mia.*That evening, at Peter’s villa.Peter had just stepped inside when Xena came toward him in a sexy evening gown, light and graceful as she wrapped her arms around his.“Peter, you’re back!”To Peter, she was like a canary he kept at home.Pretty to look at, fun to tease whenever he was in the mood, and just enough to make him feel young again.He reached out and pinched her chin.“Were you good at home today?”“Of course I was.”Xena smiled sweetly and helped him out of his suit jacket.Just then, Peter’s phone rang.He glanced at the screen an

“It’s Felix’s ex-wife, Miranda Stone. The genius researcher.”Peter let out a cold laugh.“I knew he fought for the Chamber chairmanship so he could use the position for personal gain. Sure enough, he couldn’t hold back for long.”“I heard there are signs he and his ex-wife might be getting back together. Do you think this is Chairman Gibson’s way of trying to please her?”A sharp gleam flashed through Peter’s eyes. A calculating smile curved his lips.“Getting back together with his ex-wife while abusing his authority? That’s quite the useful handle.”Then he ordered the person on the other end, “Keep watching. Pay special attention to the flow of funds and the approval process. If anything looks noncompliant, tell me immediately.”After hanging up, Peter walked to the window and looked at the towering Gibson Corporation building in the distance.He smiled coldly.“Felix Gibson, do you think becoming chairman of the Chamber means you can do whatever you want? This time, I’ll

“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

“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

At the restaurant, after they had placed their order, Miranda’s phone buzzed. She glanced at the message. It was from Ben.“Miranda, the afternoon meeting has been moved up to one o’clock. Please return to the office as soon as you’re done with lunch.”Miranda frowned slightly. That was sudden.“
