Chapter 97

Penulis: Baby X
Xena turned to Miranda with a faint smile. “Miranda, if you really want that necklace, I’ll let you have it. No hard feelings, okay?”

Miranda looked slightly taken aback, her eyes meeting Xena’s with calm precision. There was a calculating glint behind that smile.

“I don’t care for things I don’t value. You can have it,” Miranda replied coolly, her gaze drifting briefly to the man standing beside Xena.

The meaning wasn’t lost on anyone.

Felix narrowed his eyes, studying Miranda’s expression

    Fiona regretted not seeing Xena for who she really was. She had assumed that once Xena married into the Gibson family and gained access to their enormous fortune, she would stop going after the York family’s assets. Instead, before she had even married into the Gibson family, she had already gotten Felix to seize thirteen percent of York Corporation’s shares for her.Fiona was sitting on the couch, bored and scrolling through the news, when she suddenly came across a financial report. There were photos of Miranda with Felix and a group of industry heavyweights. At once, Fiona’s eyes widened with jealousy as she stared at how far Miranda had come.Two years ago, they had both been researchers in the same lab. Now Miranda had walked away with a sixteen-billion-dollar divorce settlement and had shot to the top of the scientific world, becoming one of the leading figures in the field.The man in the photo speaking warmly with Miranda was the chairman of a major pharmaceutical company.

    “It’s Felix, Xena.”Xena took a deep breath and answered, her fingertips trembling slightly. She deliberately softened her voice into something sweet and alluring. “Felix, what made you think of calling me all of a sudden?”These days, even blood draws were being arranged through the lab. She had assumed Felix would never contact her directly again.His voice came through cold as ice. “Yesterday’s test report showed alcohol in your blood. Starting today, and until the experiment is over, you’re not to drink. If your actions affect the progress of the research, you know the consequences.”Xena hurried to explain, “I only had one drink last night while I was out entertaining with my dad.”Felix’s voice was laced with a chill that cut straight through her. “Let me make this clear. If your personal behavior causes any problems with the experiment from now on, you’ll be held fully responsible.”Xena tightened her grip on the phone until her nails bit into her palm. “Felix, are you thr

    Xena was naturally the first to notice. Lily was surrounded by media people, and they all knew about the history between Xena and Miranda.“So Miranda really knows how to grab onto the right opportunity. Now she’s using Felix to climb even higher,” Xena said with a cold laugh, though her eyes were burning with jealousy.The photo of Miranda walking alongside those business heavyweights was especially hard for her to look at.Lily couldn’t help asking, “Do you think Miranda might want to get back together with Mr. Gibson?”Xena stared at the way Felix was looking back at Miranda in the photo, her nails dragging hard across the screen. She knew perfectly well that if anyone wanted to get married again, it was Felix.When Lily saw Xena wasn’t answering, she quickly got the message and dropped the subject. With Miranda now so accomplished and radiant, and Felix practically untouchable in the business world, the two of them getting back together would do Xena no favors.“They won’t ge

    Miranda kept both hands on the wheel and focused on the road as the scenery rushed past outside. She could feel his gaze on her from the passenger seat, warm and direct. She did her best to ignore it and keep driving.Maybe Felix really was tired. Before long, he closed his eyes and drifted off.By the time Miranda pulled into the open-air parking lot outside the lab, he was fast asleep. She turned to look at him, then called his name once.“Felix. We’re here.”He didn’t respond.Miranda needed to get back to work and didn’t have time to sit there waiting, so she reached over and gave his shoulder a push.“Felix, wake up. We’re here.”Just as she reached out a second time, a warm hand suddenly caught hers.Felix had woken up at some point. The moment he opened his eyes, he grabbed her hand and simply looked at her, his gaze deep and clear.Miranda pulled her hand back almost on instinct and reminded him again, “We’re here. Get out.”Felix rubbed at his brow and got out of the

    Felix sat quietly with a cup of tea in his hand, watching Miranda speak with calm confidence about her research. In moments like this, she was so radiant it was hard to look away. Even the business leaders at the table were listening with unusual focus.“Chairman Gibson really has an eye for talent,” Mr. Lambert remarked. “Someone like Dr. Stone absolutely deserves serious support.”Felix gave a slight nod. “Science and technology drive a nation forward, and talent is at the center of that. Dr. Stone is more than worthy of support.”Miranda had just lowered her eyes and lifted her glass when a server placed a dessert in front of her, separate from the others.Felix made a small gesture. “I ordered that specially for Dr. Stone.”Miranda paused for a moment.Everyone at the table understood what he was doing. Felix was clearly trying to win her over.After all, they all knew the two of them had once been married.“This dessert is excellent. Dr. Stone, you should try it,” Chairman

    “Don’t leave when the meeting ends. I want to introduce you to a few important people.”Miranda froze for a second and looked up in Felix’s direction. He didn’t turn around. Then another message from him came through.“It’ll help your career.”Miranda replied, “Okay.”A little later, the meeting ended. No one in the room rushed to leave. Instead, everyone took the chance to network with people from other industries. When Miranda stood up, she saw Felix standing among the crowd, looking straight at her.She immediately understood and walked over to his side. Setting their personal history aside, these kinds of connections really were important for her.The moment Miranda reached him, Felix led her over to a sharp-eyed older man.“Miranda, this is Mr. Lambert of HD Pharmaceutical Group.”Then he turned to the older man and said, “This is Dr. Miranda Stone from the medical university.”“Mr. Lambert, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve heard so much about you.” Miranda smiled and re

    Miranda slipped her phone back into her bag and walked over to Felix and Mia building sandcastles.“Mama, look. Daddy made this castle for me,” Mia said, pointing proudly at a small mound of sand.Miranda smiled at her. Since it was rare for her to take Mia out on a holiday like this, she tried he

    Felix’s gaze darkened, and his Adam’s apple moved slightly, but he didn’t say a word. He did, however, walk out with the coffee still in his hand.When the door closed behind him, Miranda stood at her desk and clenched her teeth. “Jerk.”She muttered the word under her breath.After a moment, she

    Miranda gave a small, apologetic smile. “Sorry, James. The decision came together pretty suddenly. I just haven’t had the chance to tell you yet.”James let out a quiet sigh. He knew how stifling it must have been for her to work under Felix’s lab, so he could not blame her.“I get it. I really do

    Only by doing this could Miranda truly fulfill her promise. She wanted to give Sophie a perfect wedding.Sophie was touched. The two of them sat together discussing the details.
