Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 859
Felix’s question sounded casual, as if it were nothing more than small talk. But the depth in his eyes carried a sharp edge as he looked straight at James.James’s hand paused mid-air as he was about to serve himself some food. He looked at Felix, then turned to Miranda, as if silently asking whether she wanted to answer.Miranda lifted her head and met Felix’s gaze across the table. There was clear displeasure in her eyes.James adjusted his glasses and smiled easily. “Miranda and I? Technically, she’s my junior. When I was overseas, her father was my mentor for a year. I came back to join the lab because of her.”He said it plainly, without hesitation. Especially the part about coming back for her.Felix’s gaze shifted to Miranda, his tone neutral. “Your dad certainly trained some remarkable people.”It sounded like praise, but there was something else beneath it.Miranda held his gaze and replied coolly, “I thought we agreed not to talk about personal matters.”In other word

Felix nodded. “We’ll stick to business. No personal talk.”James was currently pouring all his energy into the launch of the civilian project. Miranda knew his time was precious. If she declined now, a follow-up meeting would only eat further into her schedule later. She nodded. “All right.”The moment she agreed, the corners of Felix’s mouth lifted in a visible smile.“Let’s go then,” he said, taking the lead.Miranda and James followed behind him. James quietly studied her expression, worried that bringing her into this lunch might put her in an awkward position.Miranda sensed his concern and gave him a reassuring smile. “James, where does the project stand right now?”Seeing her shift naturally into work mode, James began explaining in detail. In his eyes, she could see how urgent and important this project was to him.When it came to supporting James’s work, Miranda never hesitated. Compared to that, her personal feelings felt insignificant.To her, James was a mentor, a

Miranda tried her best to ignore the man beside her. Even with space between them, the air felt thinner than anywhere else.There was a quiet tension that seemed to radiate from Felix.She frowned slightly and picked up the program booklet in front of her, pretending to focus on it.The ceremony soon commenced. During the opening remarks, the University President offered a grand expression of gratitude to Felix.He announced that Felix would be donating a brand-new laboratory building to Atlantis Medical University.As the president expressed his gratitude, Felix stood up with a polite smile and nodded in acknowledgment. The audience erupted into thunderous applause.Next came speeches from distinguished alumni and representatives of current students. The program moved forward step by step.Miranda sat upright, her eyes fixed on the stage. She deliberately ignored the powerful presence at her side.Soon, Dr. Lewis took the stage. With visible emotion, he reflected on the univer

A new week began.The assessment schedule James had announced was set for this Friday, and Wednesday marked the sixtieth anniversary celebration of Atlantis Medical University.Early that morning, Miranda was already in the lab with Adrian, both of them busy at work in their lab coats.The lab was filled with the sharp scent of disinfectant and the low hum of machines running. Miranda focused intently on the cell samples under the microscope. Her fingers moved with practiced precision as she adjusted the instruments. Sunlight streamed in, casting a soft glow across her concentrated face.Adrian watched her, noting that she hadn't moved from her station all morning. These sample analyses were notoriously difficult, yet Miranda was already nearing completion. Knowing that Wednesday’s anniversary event would take up an entire day, she was pushing herself to accelerate her research pace.Monday and Tuesday were packed with meetings, but one particular person had not shown up. That a

Watching the look on Xena’s face, Fiona quietly let out a breath of relief. Miranda had taken enough. It was about time she lost something for once.Otherwise, life would be too unfair.After staying for about half an hour, Fiona left. Sienna came back with dinner and stayed to eat with Xena. She avoided mentioning Felix and tried to steer the conversation toward lighter topics, doing her best to cheer her up.*Near midnight, just as Leo was drifting off to sleep, his phone rang. It was Hayden, sounding half-drunk and asking him out for a drink.Leo got up immediately, shedding his bathrobe for a set of casual clothes. When he found Hayden at the bar, Hayden’s assistant was sitting nearby, looking helpless.The moment he saw Leo, the assistant looked like he had just seen a savior. “Mr. Lincoln, you’re here. Thank goodness. I can’t stop Mr. Harris. He’s already had three bottles.”Leo glanced at the three bottles of hard liquor on the table. That was already Hayden’s limit. He

What did Xena even do wrong? Sienna wondered. All Xena did was love Felix.Could Miranda have said something to him? Felix never used to be like this.Just then, Fiona appeared at the elevator lobby at the end of the hallway. She had just gotten off work.“Ms. Gibson, you’re here too?” Fiona greeted Sienna.Sienna had always liked Fiona. She stood up and smiled. “I’m here to help look after Xena. Did you just get off work?”“Yes, I thought I’d stop by and check on her.” Fiona nodded. Their father was busy and their mother lived abroad, so as a younger sister, she felt it was her duty to show some care.“Wait. Don’t go in yet,” Sienna said, pulling her back. “Xena just had a good cry. Let her rest for a bit.”Fiona looked surprised. “What happened?”“It’s Felix.” Sienna looked frustrated. “He came by, and I think they argued.”Fiona was stunned. Felix and Xena argued? In her understanding, Xena was always perfectly submissive to him. Xena was far too emotionally intelligent to
