All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 1111 - Chapter 1120

During the meeting, Fiona sat in the back row, her eyes secretly following Felix at the head of the table. He listened to each report with focused attention and never looked her way even once.How had a man like that, a powerhouse in the business world, ever fallen for Miranda in the first place? Back in college, Miranda hadn’t yet made any academic name for herself. At the time, she had even been so consumed by love that she dropped out because of him.James’s presentation was excellent, and more than once Fiona caught a flicker of approval in Felix’s expression. Watching James only made her feel more resentful. She had worked by his side for two and a half years, yet she still hadn’t earned so much as a hint of his interest.When the meeting ended, Fiona deliberately waited by the corner of the hallway, hoping Felix would notice her and come over to say hello. But when Felix passed by with Ben, he didn’t even glance in her direction. He didn’t pause for even a second.Fiona stood

Unable to focus on work anymore, Fiona put in for leave, grabbed her bag, and hurried out of the lab, heading straight home.The whole drive back, she was boiling with anger. Xena had managed to walk away with thirteen percent of Roger’s company so easily. Even if she never made it into the Gibson family, that alone was enough to guarantee she would never have to worry about money again. And Fiona? Roger hadn’t given her even one percent. The unfairness of it made her chest burn. She had to get home and figure out a way forward with Gloria.At Xena’s villa, a doctor and nurse had just left. Xena was lying on the couch, one hand pressed over the spot where she had gotten an injection, her eyes closed as she rested. She had spent nearly the entire past week recovering.Fiona’s call earlier had unsettled her, but she had expected this. The moment Fiona and Gloria found out about the shares, they were bound to turn on her. But now that those York Corporation shares were firmly in her

Xena bit down on her lower lip and thought back to the day Felix had gone over the stock transfer with her himself.He had explained every clause personally, and at the time, she had taken it as something special. It had felt as if he were feeding her poison one sip at a time with his own hands, and she had accepted it gladly.He could have sent a lawyer. He could have had an assistant handle it. But he had done it himself, and to her, that had made it mean everything.Who could have guessed that what he had been offering her was not a spoonful of honey, but a cup of poison?Looking back now, she was sure that agreement had been full of hidden traps, all carefully designed so Felix could take everything back whenever he wanted and force her to keep giving in.Xena’s face turned paler.Then she suddenly thought of Miranda.Miranda was working in Felix’s lab now. Was this her revenge?All she had to do was come up with some convenient excuse, and Xena could be ordered in to give

In the conference room, Dr. Smith went over Susan’s latest progress. Because of her age and her underlying health issues, her treatment plan still needed to be adjusted carefully as she recovered. Even so, all the signs pointed in a positive direction.“I put together a list of the data,” Miranda said as she opened her laptop. “These markers show a very high degree of overlap with Mrs. Gibson’s sequence.”Felix immediately rose and walked over. He leaned in to look at the screen, their shoulders nearly touching.Miranda’s brows pulled together slightly. She leaned back in her chair a little before continuing. “I need more samples for comparison.”“I’ll contact her and have her cooperate,” Felix replied in a low voice.Just then, Dr. Smith’s phone rang. He picked it up, gestured to the two of them that he needed to take the call, and stepped out.That left only the two of them in the room.Felix turned his head and looked at Miranda’s profile from close range. His dark gaze moved

“Isn’t there any way around it?” she asked unwillingly.“Only if you can prove Mr. Gibson committed fraud,” the lawyer said. “But I imagine that would be very difficult.”Xena dragged a hand through her hair, pain flashing across her face.Felix really was ruthless.Had he planned to keep her trapped for the rest of her life?Or was this his way of punishing her for everything she had done before? Did he hate her for destroying his marriage to Miranda?A surge of resentment rose in Xena’s eyes.So this was the price she had been running up all these years every time she pushed too far with Felix.Even now, when he already had other ways to save Susan, he still refused to let her go.She had to admit it. She really had gone too far before. She had been reckless and self-indulgent. She had kept testing his limits over and over again.She remembered the way she had flaunted things in front of Miranda. The way she had deliberately created situations that made her relationship wit
