Early morning, Miranda walked downstairs hand in hand with Mia. Felix smiled warmly at his daughter, but the moment his eyes met Miranda’s, his expression noticeably cooled.After Felix left to take Mia to school, Miranda got a call from Lucas.Several representatives from key organizations were coming in today to discuss the M Village case, including some high-level government officials. As the lead researcher, Miranda needed to be there to present her findings.*In the lab lounge, Coco glanced at Fiona, her tone tinged with envy. “I heard there’ll be a lot of high-profile association leaders and government reps today. Miranda’s definitely going to steal the spotlight again.”Just then, Victor walked in and overheard the comment. He scoffed. “Her father was Eugene Stone. Of course all the best resources go to her. People like us never stand a chance.”Fiona’s expression darkened, her fingers tightening around her cup. “We all need to start seizing opportunities. We can’t just l

Miranda’s expression faltered for a brief moment.That evening, Xena stood out in a floor-length, custom violet gown. The luxurious fabric shimmered beneath the ballroom lights, perfectly highlighting her tall, graceful figure. The moment she walked in, she drew everyone’s attention.Felix, standing beside her, looked just as striking. His presence, cool and composed, seemed to outshine every other man in the room. Together, the two of them instantly became the focal point of the entire event.Xena carried herself with effortless elegance, fully enjoying the attention that followed her. As she leaned in to speak to Felix, her manner shifted between poised confidence and playful charm, as if every gesture had been rehearsed to perfection.Before long, a circle of influential guests had formed around them, each one eager to say hello.Elsewhere in the room, Coco clutched Fiona’s arm with excitement. “Fiona, your sister looks incredible. She’s like a goddess tonight.”Even Fiona had

Miranda had just taken a seat when two elegantly dressed women sat down across from her. She recognized them right away. Both were well-known actresses.“Wasn’t Carrie Lopez the official charity ambassador for SY Media? When did that change to the pianist, Xena Spencer?” one of them asked curiously.“The Gibson Corporation and the Jenkins Foundation have always had a close partnership. Changing the ambassador probably only took a word from the right person,” the other woman replied.“So jealous,” the first one sighed.“People like us could never dream of that kind of luck. From what I’ve heard, Xena has been with Felix Gibson for years. He’s turned down every other woman for her. She’s the only one he’s ever truly spoiled.”“Seriously?”“I heard Simon Lee’s team had started negotiations with the stadium first, but later his concert schedule was pushed to August, so Xena was given the venue to hold her solo recital first.”“Wait, not even Simon Lee could beat her to the venue?”

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 with quiet scrutiny.Xena, too, was watching her closely. A strange feeling stirred in her chest. It was as if Miranda had become a completely different person. Six months ago, Miranda’s thoughts and emotions had been easy to read. Now, she felt like a rival Xena could no longer decipher.Just then, James and Lucas returned.Lucas smiled. “Mr. Gibson, are you done with your meeting?”Felix nodded and said to Xena, “Let’s go.”Soon after, Lucas, James, and Miranda were escorted to meet Mrs

“I’ll bring her over,” Felix replied calmly.Susan let out a frustrated sigh. “I swear, Miranda’s getting more and more stubborn. You’ve been married six years, and she still acts like a child. So immature.”“I’ll talk to her,” Felix said, trying to calm her down.“I told you back then not to marry her. And now look—this is what you get. She’s unreasonable, and worse, she doesn’t even respect people.” Susan had been holding in her anger all evening, and now it finally spilled out.Just then, a cough behind her made her jump. She turned to see her mother-in-law standing there. She quickly muttered into the phone, “I’ll call you back.”Mrs. Gibson Sr. had clearly overheard everything. “You’re a grown woman, and you’re still picking fights with Miranda?”“You didn’t see how defiant she was just now. If she were my daughter, I’d have given her a proper lesson. The only reason I kept quiet was because she’s my daughter-in-law,” Susan muttered bitterly.Mrs. Gibson Sr. gave her a poin
