Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! Chapter 1002
“Okay. I’ll come by,” Hayden said.Lily came over with a blanket and draped it over Xena, then sat down and studied her face. That morning, Xena had still looked rosy and healthy. But now, sitting there in front of her, she was pale as paper, like someone had had all the color drained out of her.Lily couldn’t help thinking that Xena had been made to give blood again. But it hadn’t even been a week since the last time.She brought over a glass of warm water. “Here, drink some water.”The moment Xena lifted her arm, she sucked in a sharp breath from the pain. Right then, a patch of red started to spread through the sleeve of her white sweater.“Xena, you’re bleeding,” Lily said quickly.Xena hurriedly shoved up her sleeve. Sure enough, the needle site had started bleeding again. She immediately said, “Get the first-aid kit. Hurry.”Without another word, Lily went to get it and handed her some gauze. Xena pressed hard against the wound, biting down on her lip.She couldn’t afford

Miranda looked up and glanced at him. “If this is about work, then say what you need to say. If it’s personal, I’m busy, and I don’t have time for it.”Felix’s words caught in his throat. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman sitting behind the desk. She hadn’t even really looked at him, as if she had no interest in anything he might say.“Ten years ago, I signed an agreement with her. I gave her resources and financial support, and in return, she agreed to be a designated donor for me to use—”Miranda’s fingers paused over the keyboard. She cut him off at once. “Right now, the only thing I care about is the trial data and evaluating the safety of the treatment. If you don’t have anything work-related to discuss, then please don’t waste my time.”Then her eyes returned to the screen. After a beat, she added, “Compared to everything I have ahead of me, a marriage ruined by cheating means nothing.”Felix stood there in silence. In the end, he said nothing and turned to leave

Xena stared at his retreating back, hatred and resentment churning in her eyes.Dr. Smith gave the nurses a look, signaling for everyone to step outside.Her carefully styled hair had come loose, and her makeup was smeared from tears. Compared to the polished elegance she always tried so hard to keep up, she looked especially disheveled now.Dr. Smith pulled a tissue from the box and held it out to her. “Ms. Spencer, I’m sorry you had to go through this. But I hope you understand that this research is a matter of life and death for Mr. Gibson’s family.”Xena suddenly looked up, anger blazing in her eyes. “What am I to all of you? A walking blood bank? It was like this ten years ago, and it’s still like this now.”Dr. Smith adjusted his glasses and looked at her calmly. “Ms. Spencer, I don’t know all the details of that deal from ten years ago. But from what I do know, Mr. Gibson never treated you unfairly. This wasn’t just one-sided exploitation.”Xena’s expression darkened, as i

Just then, Felix’s hand reached over and firmly pinned Xena’s arm in place while the blood was still being drawn. The grip wasn’t harsh, but it carried a quiet force that left no room for argument.“Don’t move.” Felix’s voice was low and cold.Xena immediately grabbed his arm with her other hand. When she looked up, tears were already streaming down her face. Her voice shook with fear and hurt.“Felix, make them stop. It hurts too much. Please, no more. There has to be another way.”Felix’s brows tightened. His voice stayed hard. “Do you think this is a joke? Stop moving.”“But I’m really scared. Please, don’t let them keep going,” Xena’s voice broke as she cried, trying to use her tears to stir some pity in him.Felix didn’t waver at all. He didn’t even look down at her. He only said to the nurse, “Keep going.”Those two words cut straight through every illusion Xena had been holding onto. She stared up at Felix’s cold profile in disbelief. There wasn’t a trace of sympathy in h

When the first light of morning came through the window, Miranda rubbed at her tired eyes and checked Sienna’s latest numbers again. Everything was stable.Dr. Smith told her to get some rest. Miranda nodded, went into the room they had set aside for her, lay down on the couch, and quickly fell asleep.Around eight, Dr. Smith gave Felix an update.“I’ll be there at eight. Where’s Miranda?” Felix asked in a low voice.“She’s asleep in the break room,” Dr. Smith said.“You’ve all done enough already.”“We’re just doing our job,” Dr. Smith said, though he still sounded excited. “We’ve waited a long time for this. But when will Ms. Spencer be here?”“She’ll be here before nine.”“Good. She may have a hard time today,” Dr. Smith said.“She’ll be ready,” Felix said, his tone firm.At 8:50, Xena’s SUV pulled up outside. Her manager, Lily, was about to get out with her when Xena said, “You can go.”Lily paused. “You don’t need me to stay with you?”“No. Felix is here. He’ll stay wi

Miranda listened quietly without saying anything.Then Dr. Smith said, “Dr. Stone, when he says he’ll take responsibility for whatever happens, he means it. He’s always been that way. He’s putting all his hope in you. And after thinking it through, he believes you’re the one he can trust most with this.”Miranda lowered her eyes. It wasn’t as if she wanted to take on a risk like this. But more than anything, she didn’t want Mia to face this disease in the future.Saving Susan and Sienna also meant protecting Mia.“I understand, Dr. Smith.” Miranda took a deep breath, her eyes sharpening with focus. “We’re going to make this work.”When Miranda opened the door and stepped out, she ran straight into Felix. She took a step back, and Felix froze, his gaze lingering on her.“I’m going to get things ready,” Miranda said. “You should talk to Sienna first and make sure she’s prepared.”“Okay.” Felix nodded. “I’ll talk to her.”“And one more thing. We’re running low on blood samples, so

After lunch, Miranda and Keith walked toward the elevator hall while chatting. Unfortunately, standing there were Roger and his associates again.Roger heard footsteps behind him and casually turned his head. The moment he saw Miranda, a flash of contempt appeared in his eyes.He straightened his

A glint of satisfaction flashed in Xena’s eyes as her plan took shape. She sighed lightly. “But what can you really do? Leo is completely infatuated with Miranda right now. Do you really think he will listen to you?”Hayden’s gaze hardened. “Then I will tell him the truth. I will show him that Mira

Miranda rubbed the sore spot at the back of her head and shook her own hand dismissively. “I’m fine. I just bumped into the wall by accident.”A little later, Felix and Dr. Smith entered the restaurant together. Samantha had already arranged for Coco to order food in advance. Soon, the dishes were

Miranda nodded and took out her phone to exchange contact information with Alger.Just then, a deep voice spoke from beside them.“Dr. Smith, it seems your team member is quite interested in my lead researcher.”Felix wore a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.Dr. Smith laughed. “Alger has a
