Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 847
Miranda took the menu, her fingers tightening slightly around the edge. She lowered her gaze and flipped through the pages, deliberately avoiding the presence of Felix beside her.She ordered two light dishes, then slid the menu across the table to Felix.He added four more, all similarly mild and easy on the stomach.“Felix,” Samantha asked, “how is the civilian project coming along?”“It’s fully under James’s direction now,” Felix replied, lifting his cup. “He has full authority over all decisions.”Samantha nodded. “He’s the right person to lead it.”“The civilian project was able to move forward,” Felix said, his eyes drifting to Miranda’s profile, “largely because of the groundwork Dr. Stone laid early on.”“It was just part of my job,” Miranda said evenly.Sensing the tension, Samantha shifted the topic. “By the way, Miranda, Mia is in elementary school already, isn’t she?”“She’ll start next September,” Miranda replied with a faint smile.“How time flies,” Samantha sai

After the meeting ended, Dr. Williams stayed behind to speak with Samantha privately about the treatment plan.Miranda stepped over to the window for some air. Felix followed a moment later.“I’ve already hired a dedicated post-op nursing team,” Felix said. “You won't have to worry about the logistics after Dr. Liam’s surgery.”Miranda didn't bother responding. These were arrangements he could discuss with Samantha. Whether she accepted them was her choice.Just then, at the corner of the hallway, a nurse carrying a stack of files collided with a young doctor. Papers scattered across the floor. The nurse immediately crouched down to gather them. The doctor did the same. Their hands brushed, and both pulled back at the same time. When their eyes met, they flushed.The scene made Miranda’s breath catch for a second.Felix watched her profile and said softly, “Doesn’t that look a little like the first time we met?”Miranda turned her face toward the window. “I’ve forgotten.”A s

Gavin held his phone, sensing the unusual silence on the other end. Felix, who was normally swift and decisive, did not issue a single instruction.“Mr. Gibson, would you like me to—” Gavin ventured carefully.“That won’t be necessary,” Felix said, his voice as calm as ever. “Let Hayden stay with her. You can come back.”After the call ended, Gavin stood there for a few seconds, stunned. In the past, any time Xena felt unwell, Felix would personally follow up without hesitation.Then again, Hayden and Xena had always been close friends. Felix was likely just comfortable with the arrangement.*In the hospital room, Hayden watched Xena pick at her food. She was eating slowly, clearly without much appetite.“Is it not to your taste?” he asked. “I can have something else sent over.”“It’s not the food,” Xena replied softly. She set down her utensils. “I just don’t feel like eating.”“You need the nutrition right now,” Hayden said with a frown. “Try to eat a little more.”Xena sm

Hayden’s eyes darkened. He was always a step behind. If he had been the one by her side from the start, would he hold a more significant place in her heart?“He really cares about you,” Hayden said quietly.He had seen it time and again. Any minor injury or ailment Xena suffered triggered an immediate, protective reaction from Felix. Even with something as small as drinking alcohol, Felix kept a strict watch over her, treating Xena like a priceless piece of art that couldn't be allowed a single scratch.Xena offered a soft smile and gestured toward the refreshments. “There’s tea over there. Help yourself.”Hayden picked up the glass beside her bed and took a sip.“That’s my cup—” she cut in.He heard her but till drank from it anyway.Then he smiled. “Do you mind?”Color rose faintly in her cheeks as she lowered her gaze. “Of course not. I’m already grateful you came.”Just then, Gavin walked in carrying a takeout bag from one of the city’s top restaurants. He paused slightly

Miranda jerked her wrist free, her eyes turning ice-cold. “Felix, please have some self-respect.”His hand froze midair. His Adam’s apple bobbed once. “Just five minutes.”“I wouldn’t waste even one.” She turned to leave.“As far as I know,” Felix said quietly, “Dr. Williams from Merika is one of the leading authorities on pancreatic cancer. I’d like to fly him to Atlantis City to consult on Dr. Liam’s case. Another expert means another possible treatment plan.”Miranda finally looked up. Staying current with medical journals, she knew exactly how prestigious the expert Felix mentioned was. Having him lead a consultation would undoubtedly increase the odds of success.“Pancreatic cancer is known as the king of cancers for a reason,” Felix continued quietly. “I hope you’ll agree with me.”Miranda hesitated.She was deeply worried about Samantha’s condition.“How soon can you get him here?”“Next Monday at the earliest.”“Fine.” Miranda gave him a cool, level look. Felix seem

The assistant's frantic voice echoed through the empty corridor, “Ms. Spencer didn’t eat breakfast this morning. Could it be low blood sugar?”In that split second, Felix didn't hesitate. He strode quickly toward the corner where Xena had collapsed. Miranda and Samantha stood rooted to the spot, only to hear Felix’s voice erupt in a furious roar from around the corner.“How could you let this happen? Is this how you take care of her?”Samantha startled at the sharpness in his tone. Layla glanced toward the sound, clearly hearing the anger in his voice over Xena’s condition.A moment later, Felix lifted Xena into his arms and sprinted toward the elevators, clearly heading for emergency care.As he passed Miranda, his steps faltered for a split second. Their eyes met. Something dark and turbulent flickered in his. His throat tightened, his jaw clenched, but in the end, he said nothing. He only tightened his hold on Xena and walked into the elevator.Gavin and Lily scrambled to fo
