Miranda’s expression stayed calm. Just then, her phone rang. It was Raymond. She turned to Mrs. Gibson Sr. and said, “Grandma, I need to take this.”Then she stepped a little farther away with her phone in hand.Felix walked over to Mrs. Gibson Sr.’s side. She looked up and shot him a sharp glance. “You heard what Miranda said just now too, didn’t you?”Felix nodded once. “I deserved it.”Mrs. Gibson Sr. glared at him, annoyed. “You should never have hidden all of that from her in the first place. You kept the whole family in the dark, and on top of that, you let Xena bully Miranda right under your nose.”Felix’s eyes followed Miranda in the distance. His voice was low. “I was wrong.”“What good does it do to realize that now?” Mrs. Gibson Sr. said, anger and heartache mixing in her voice. “Miranda has completely given up on you.”After saying that, she paused, clearly waiting for him to say something more. But Felix stayed silent. He only stood there, his gaze fixed on Mirand

A private dinner invitation from the vice president was no small thing.Felix asked with quiet concern, “Mr. Vice President, how is Mr. Lloyd recovering?”“Mike is recovering well,” Justin said, relief clear in his voice. “The reason I’m inviting you both this time is because I want to thank you in person. But official duties are keeping me here, and I can’t make the trip to Atlantis City myself. Felix, I’ll have to trouble you to bring Miranda to Hamilton.”Felix answered in a low voice, “Of course. Miranda and I will be there on time.”“Good. Then it’s settled. I’ll inform Miranda as well.” Justin paused, and his tone softened a little. “What happens between you young people is not my place to ask about, but the truth is, both you and Miranda played an indispensable part in Mike waking up.”A short while later, Miranda also received a personal invitation from Justin, and of course she agreed.Ten minutes after she hung up, a message came from Felix.“Three days from now, my mo

“You give me too much credit, Mr. Vice President. It was simply what I should have done,” Felix replied politely.Mike suddenly rose to his feet, emotion clear on his face. “Thank you all for coming tonight. Every one of you helped save my life. Without you, I might never have woken up. Let me offer a toast to all of you.”Everyone at the table lifted their glasses and accepted the gratitude in that gesture.Then Mike’s gaze moved slowly around the room before finally coming to rest on Miranda. Their eyes met for a brief moment.Justin lifted his glass as well and addressed the table. “I also have another piece of good news to announce tonight.”Felix’s heart sank at once. His fingers tightened slightly around his glass.Was he finally about to hear the one thing he least wanted to hear?The room fell quiet.Miranda listened too.Felix lowered his eyes, almost as if he were waiting for a sentence to be handed down.“I will be approving a national science and technology suppor

Miranda had already guessed part of the reason.She lifted her eyes and looked over. Felix was looking at her too.Their gazes met.There was something in his eyes, an emotion she couldn’t quite understand.Just then, Justin rose to his feet.“I’ve had tea set up in the sitting room. Come join me.”Everyone stood and followed him out.Felix was about to get up as well when Mike suddenly patted him on the shoulder and sat down beside him.“Mr. Gibson, do you have a moment?”Felix nodded.Miranda glanced at the two men who had stayed behind, then followed Adrian and the others to the sitting room.Once everyone else was gone, Mike poured Felix a cup of tea. His expression turned serious.“Mr. Gibson, I was able to wake up because of your company’s brain-computer interface technology and because that chip arrived in time. You saved my life. I’ll remember that for as long as I live.”Felix gave a slight nod, though his tone was noticeably cooler.“Major Lloyd, you’re making t

At some point, the drunken haze in Felix’s eyes had faded.In its place was a seriousness Miranda had never seen before.He was just about to say something else when the elevator arrived with a soft ding, cutting off their conversation.Miranda stepped out first.Felix followed behind her.When she reached her room and was about to swipe her key card, his low voice sounded behind her.“Good night.”Although Miranda hadn’t answered his question earlier, Felix was clearly in a good mood.He even seemed pleased.Miranda replied politely in a low voice, “Good night.”“Our flight is at ten tomorrow morning,” Felix added.The meaning was clear. She didn’t have to find her own way back. She could take his private jet.Miranda pushed the door open and went inside.Felix waited until her door closed. Then the corners of his lips lifted slightly, and he turned back to his own room.The night passed quietly.Miranda slept well.When she came out with her luggage the next morning,
