All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 1071 - Chapter 1080

He looked down at her, his eyes sharp enough to cut through everything. “Do you really think I’m still the same idiot you could fool with a few tears? Those tears of yours aren’t regret. You’re just scared of losing me as your backup plan. You’re scared of losing the money and connections I could give you.”Tears still clung to Xena’s lashes, but panic had already flashed across her face at being so completely seen through.“Hayden, how can you say that to me...” She looked at him with anger and resentment.Hayden cut her off. “Stop acting. You chose your path, so walk it. As for the time and money I wasted on you, I’ll take the loss. But from this moment on, stay out of my life. Don’t ever show up in front of me again.”His voice stayed calm, but every word landed like a knife, and Xena finally understood that in front of a Hayden who knew the truth, every act and every trick was useless.And the way he was so calm, simply telling her to get out of his life, hurt even more than i

For the past ten years, she had kept pushing herself, trying to prove she was no worse than Miranda. Trying to prove that Felix had made the wrong choice.And now, in her mind, she had succeeded.She had succeeded in driving Miranda and Felix to divorce. She had succeeded in turning Felix into the person Miranda hated most. Even though she had never managed to take Miranda’s place as Mrs. Gibson, there was still a thrill in knowing Miranda had suffered and Felix had lost his family.She had used everything she could to make Felix destroy Miranda’s trust and love with his own hands.“Miranda,” Xena said to herself with a cold laugh, “have you tasted what pain feels like now? The moment you stole him from me, I swore I’d make sure the two of you ended up like this.”Of course, she hadn’t truly won.Miranda still had Mia. She still had her career.But at the very least, Felix had completely lost Miranda. The two of them would never fall in love again. They would never rebuild their

Miranda texted back, “I’ll take you to dinner when you get back.”“Okay. I’ll hold you to that,” Mike replied almost instantly.Miranda set her phone aside and went back to the study. She opened her email and started reading through it. Susan was scheduled to begin the injections next Monday, and her condition was serious enough that everything would have to be carefully monitored and evaluated through multiple sets of data.Around seven, Mrs. Young came upstairs. “Ma’am, dinner’s ready.”“Mrs. Young, could you please go downstairs and bring Mia up?” Miranda said. She had no intention of going down herself.Mrs. Young smiled. “Of course.” But after saying it, she lingered in the doorway as if there were something else she wanted to ask.Miranda looked up at her and immediately guessed what it was. Her brows drew together. “No. Don’t invite him up.”Mrs. Young’s smile faltered for a second, and she nodded. “All right.”Five minutes later, Mia’s voice drifted up from the downstai

When Dr. Smith stepped out to make the call, he saw Miranda standing in the hallway. By then, though, he had already reached Felix.“Mr. Gibson, could you come to the lab? Ms. Spencer is insisting on terminating the contract, and she says she wants to see you.”A moment later, after getting his answer, Dr. Smith turned to Miranda. “Dr. Stone, Ms. Spencer is inside. She wants to talk about ending the agreement.”Miranda nodded, then turned to Sienna. “Go back to your room and rest. You don’t need to be involved in this.”Sienna bit her lip. She badly wanted to storm in and confront Xena herself, but she couldn’t ignore Miranda. In the end, she forced herself to calm down and turned away.Twenty minutes later, Felix walked into the lab lobby.He was dressed in a dark tailored suit, his steps steady, his expression cold. There was a quiet authority about him that made the whole space feel more tense the moment he entered.Dr. Smith walked up to meet him. “Mr. Gibson, you’re here. M

So this had been Felix’s plan all along.He had called Miranda in on purpose. He wanted her to see the contract for herself. He wanted to make it clear that nothing between him and Xena had been real.But in the end, what happened?Miranda couldn’t have cared less.The corners of Xena’s mouth almost curled up on their own. In the end, she looked at Felix with open mockery. “Felix, see? Even with the proof of what was between us sitting right there on the table, she still couldn’t care less. So why are you trying so hard?”Felix’s eyes snapped toward her, warning flashing in them. “Watch what you say.”Xena gave a small shrug and put on an innocent look. “I’m only telling the truth.”Then she turned to Dr. Smith. “Dr. Smith, could I have a few minutes alone with Felix?”Dr. Smith looked at Felix. Felix didn’t say anything, but Dr. Smith still decided to give them space. He stood and left.The moment the conference room door closed, Xena shifted her chair a little closer and sof
