Chapter 864

Penulis: Baby X
Fiona stole a few more glances at him, a quiet thought forming in her mind. If she ever met a man with that kind of presence and status, she would never hesitate.

Unfortunately, she didn’t even move in circles where someone like him existed.

Miranda, on the other hand, had always had easier access. Eugene’s network ran deep through academic communities at home and abroad. That was where Fiona knew she could never compete. Having a father who was a nationally recognized academician made all the

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 867

    Every employee at the Lincoln Corporation recognized Hayden, allowing him to breeze through the building and reach Leo’s office without a single person standing in his way.Inside, Leo was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, wrapped up in a phone call. Hearing the commotion, he turned around in surprise. Seeing it was Hayden, he wrapped up the call and strode over.“What brings you here?” Leo tossed his phone onto the couch and rubbed his temples. The strain of recent work was obvious.Without a word, Hayden pulled out his phone, hit play on the video, and shoved it in front of Leo’s face.“Take a good look, Leo. Is a woman like that really worth your time and effort?”Leo frowned and took the phone. The video was already halfway through. Miranda was leaning weakly against Mike, and Mike was looking down at her with open concern.Leo’s breathing stalled for a second. Where was this filmed? Why did Miranda look so pale, like she might pass out at any moment?“Do you see it n

    “I just ran into Ms. Gibson in the lobby. She said she’s coming up to see you.”Xena paused, a faint smirk touching her lips.A knock sounded at the door. Xena didn’t respond, but a second later Sienna pushed the door open and walked in.She was about to speak when she noticed Xena staring intently at something on her phone. Curious, she stepped lightly toward the bedside, planning to tease her.“Xena, what are you looking at?”Startled, Xena dropped her phone onto the blanket and quickly reached for it, trying to shield the screen.“Sienna, don’t look.”Sienna hadn’t planned to, but that only made her more curious. “What is it that I’m not allowed to see?”As Xena picked up the phone, the video was still playing. Sienna caught a glimpse of Miranda falling into a man’s arms and snatched the phone right out of Xena’s hand. She restarted the clip and watched it from beginning to end, a look of pure disgust flashing in her eyes.“Don’t tell Felix,” Xena said quickly as she took t

    Xena was still in her hospital room. Lily had just finished peeling some fruit and handed it to her when Xena’s phone vibrated with a notification. She reached out to check it.Seeing that the message was from Fiona and included a video attachment, Xena felt a flicker of surprise. She turned to Lily and said, “Lily, could you give me a minute alone?”As Xena’s manager, Lily knew her well. Being asked to step out like this was something she had long since grown used to. “Don’t forget to eat some fruit,” she reminded her gently before leaving the room.Xena nodded. Once the door closed, she pressed play.In the video, Miranda looked pale and unsteady, leaning against Mike. His arm was firmly wrapped around her waist, holding her close. The way he looked at her was full of open concern and unmistakable tenderness.Their closeness left little room for doubt. They looked like a couple.Xena typed back, “Where are you?”“Dr. Liam is having surgery in Hamilton. I came to look after h

    Fiona stole a few more glances at him, a quiet thought forming in her mind. If she ever met a man with that kind of presence and status, she would never hesitate.Unfortunately, she didn’t even move in circles where someone like him existed.Miranda, on the other hand, had always had easier access. Eugene’s network ran deep through academic communities at home and abroad. That was where Fiona knew she could never compete. Having a father who was a nationally recognized academician made all the difference.Time dragged on. By nearly one in the afternoon, no one had the appetite for lunch. The waiting was draining, both physically and emotionally.Miranda had barely slept since receiving the call the night before. She had eaten almost nothing that morning. Between exhaustion and anxiety, her body finally gave out. When she stood up to get a cup of water, a wave of dizziness hit her. Her vision darkened instantly.The hallway seemed to spin. Her body swayed.A strong arm caught her

    Miranda replied at once. “You didn’t actually come back, did you?”She had just sent the message and had not even received a response when firm footsteps echoed from the elevator lobby down the corridor. The rhythm was steady and controlled, carrying the unmistakable presence of someone with military training.The sound grew closer.Miranda looked up instinctively.A tall figure was striding toward the operating room. Mike was dressed in a sharply pressed dark green service uniform, the insignia on his shoulders catching the light.He had really come.Startled, Miranda rose to her feet and walked toward him.Fiona’s eyes widened when she saw him. She had only ever seen this imposing man from a distance before. She had never expected him to appear here.Layla didn’t know who he was, but she couldn’t help staring at him. After a few seconds, she had to look away. Mike was like the sun, so radiant it was difficult to look at him directly.“What are you doing back here?” Miranda w

    Miranda was responsible for her own safety. There was no need to report her whereabouts to an outsider.The car drove steadily along the highway toward Hamilton. Outside the window, rows of tall trees rushed past, and the sky was beginning to lighten into a hazy gray.Miranda leaned back against the seat and closed her eyes, exhausted. The driver did not disturb her. He drove calmly and quietly.When they arrived at the hotel, the driver spoke respectfully. “Ms. Stone, I’ll bring your suitcase upstairs for you.”“That’s all right. Thank you,” Miranda replied politely.The man clearly looked like a professional chauffeur. He carried himself with quiet discipline. A sudden thought crossed her mind.Since Mike was stationed far away at the base, this driver he arranged must be someone from the Secretary of State's office. Could this person actually be Justin’s personal driver?The realization left Miranda slightly overwhelmed. After checking into the hotel, she saw that it was alre
