Chapter 972

Penulis: Baby X
When Hayden saw Xena’s name flash across the screen, he froze for a second. Almost instinctively, he glanced at Sera. Sera immediately looked away and turned toward the window.

That was when Hayden saw the cut on her forehead again. Blood had stained her pale cheek, and some of it had soaked into the front of her shirt. She looked alarmingly fragile.

Hayden took a deep breath, declined the call, and never once eased up on the gas.

Back in the villa living room, Xena frowned, unable to believe

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 1357

    Miranda listened to Xena.Clearly, Xena didn’t know the truth.Back then, after Miranda had confessed her feelings, Felix hadn’t given her an answer right away. So Miranda had chosen to give up.The reason they had ended up married wasn’t because Miranda had begged for it.It was because, just as she was ready to walk away, Felix had been the one to bring it up first.“Xena Spencer, don’t judge other people by your own filthy thoughts,” Miranda said coldly. “Since you’ve already latched onto Peter Warren, then behave yourself and live your own life.”Her voice sharpened slightly.“Going around bragging about your glorious past with Felix won’t do you any good.”Miranda picked up her bag and was about to leave, but Xena grabbed her arm, unwilling to let her go.“Miranda, stop pretending you’re so gracious. I don’t believe you really don’t hate him at all. At the pool, when he had to choose between us, he chose me. In the dressing room, he enjoyed my attention. Do you really bel

    But Peter wouldn’t give up on digging into the Chamber’s fund.After all, he still hadn’t given up on becoming chairman of the Chamber. In his lifetime, he had to sit in that position at least once and enjoy the power for himself.Besides, he had long been dissatisfied with Felix, this younger man who had dared to stand above him.Losing the election last time had already made Peter lose face. Tonight, Felix had humiliated him in public again.With old grudges and new resentment piled together, how could he possibly let this go?Others might not dare challenge Felix Gibson’s position.But Peter wasn’t afraid.Just then, Xena, who stood beside him, caught sight of Miranda heading toward the restroom.She immediately said to Peter, “Peter, I’m going to the restroom.”When Miranda came out of the stall, Xena was already standing at the sink, washing her hands.Through the mirror, Xena looked at her.“You looked quite impressive tonight, Ms. Stone.”The stall doors were all ope

    After chatting with Professor Wright for more than ten minutes, Felix walked over and greeted the professor politely.Then he turned to Miranda.“Dr. Stone, sorry to interrupt. There are a few overseas guests I’d like to introduce you to. Come with me for a moment.”Miranda looked at the old professor.Professor Wright waved kindly. “Go on, go on. Business comes first.”Miranda nodded and stood, then followed Felix toward another group in the banquet hall.As Felix approached, a man walked toward him warmly.“Mr. Gibson.”“Mr. Carter, let me introduce you. This is Dr. Miranda Stone,” Felix said with a smile.“Dr. Stone, it’s a pleasure. I finally get to meet you in person.”Edward Carter looked at her with clear admiration.While they were exchanging greetings, another acquaintance came over to speak with Edward.Felix tilted his head slightly and leaned closer to Miranda’s ear.“Eighty percent of the donations for your project came from Mr. Carter.”Miranda’s pupils trem

    She had spent ten years scheming to tear them apart.Had all of that effort still ended in failure?Felix’s deep, steady gaze remained fixed on Miranda’s face.The way he leaned toward her carried a rare patience and focus. Miranda looked up at him slightly, her expression calm and serious.There seemed to be no hatred between them anymore.Xena bit down hard on her lip.She had sacrificed so much. In the end, she had even lowered herself to be with an old man like Peter.So why did Miranda get to return to Felix’s side so easily?Why did she get even more protection and favoritism from him than before?“What are you staring at?” Peter suddenly pinched her waist. “Still thinking about Felix?”Xena quickly looked away and slipped back into her seductive smile.“Peter, I’m just angry on your behalf. Felix Gibson clearly doesn’t respect you at all.”Peter gave a cold snort.His gaze also turned toward Felix, dark and hostile.“Hmph. Let’s see how long he can stay so pleased

    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

    “You don’t need to give me an answer now. You have three months to think about it.” Felix said this quietly, then turned and walked away.Miranda didn’t press the elevator button. Her thoughts drifted back to the last experiment she did two years ago.It was the one she conducted in an underground

    Leo noticed the way Miranda flipped her phone over. Something about her expression, paired with that small defensive motion, immediately made him glance toward the private dining room nearby.The food arrived, and Leo deliberately shifted the conversation back to children and school schedules.
