All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 1431 - Chapter 1440

Over the next few days, Miranda focused on preparing for her new research project. She also took Mia to the Gibson estate for dinner.At the end of the month, she would be leaving for Merika to attend the international neuroscience conference.Edward had emailed her again, urging her not to miss the rare opportunity he had helped secure. Miranda valued the chance to exchange ideas with other researchers just as much.She planned to leave the day after Mia’s kindergarten graduation ceremony.That evening, Miranda logged into Dr. Smith’s internal research database to record several parameters she might want to reference at the conference.Then she saw the locked file again.She hesitated, biting her lip before clicking on it.A password box appeared.Miranda tried every date she could think of from the time she and Felix had shared together. Mia’s birthday. Her own birthday. Felix’s birthday. Their wedding anniversary. Every date that had once seemed important.After trying more

Leo looked back at Miranda, urgency in his eyes.“Miranda, Aunt Celine’s research fund has been looking for a worthwhile project to support. There are so many patients like my mother. I believe in you, and I believe in your team. I want to give people like her some hope for the future.”A cool evening breeze passed through the courtyard.Miranda looked into Leo’s hopeful eyes, deeply moved.“Leo, I’m grateful for your faith in me. But this research is still in a very early stage. There are a lot of unknowns, and it could take a long time before there are any real results. You need to be prepared for that.”“I know,” Leo said, nodding. “I understand. Even if your research only moves things forward by one small step, it could still mean hope for people waiting in the dark.”His gaze was open and sincere. There was no calculation behind it, only trust in Miranda.She met his eyes and understood that this wasn’t just funding. It was a responsibility.“Okay,” Miranda said at last, n

The flight landed smoothly.As soon as Miranda stepped off the plane, her phone buzzed with a message from Felix.“Text me when you land.”She replied, “I’m here. Thanks for checking on me.”A moment later, Mr. Lee came over with her luggage. He had taken his assignment as her security detail very seriously.“Thank you, Mr. Lee,” Miranda said.“It’s my job,” he replied.Just then, a black car pulled up in front of them.After speaking briefly with the driver, Mr. Lee turned to Miranda.“Mr. Gibson arranged this car for you. Please get in, Ms. Stone.”Miranda looked at the luxury sedan but said nothing. She got in without protest.At this point, refusing his arrangements would only feel unnecessary.Felix had gone to so much trouble. She might as well accept it.The car headed smoothly toward the city, with Mr. Lee seated in the front passenger seat.The conference was being held at one of Merika’s top universities. Miranda’s hotel was only a short walk from campus.Once

Miranda had had two glasses of wine that night. She had hoped to say a few words to Mia, but Mia was not with Felix.She tucked her hair behind her ear.“I’m tired, but it’s been really fulfilling. I’ve met so many impressive researchers.”There was a note of excitement in her voice that she couldn't quite hide. She looked brighter somehow, almost glowing through the screen.“Get some rest. Don’t stay up too late,” Felix said softly.“Thank you.”Miranda lowered her eyes, avoiding the deeper emotion in his gaze.For a few seconds, neither of them spoke.Miranda was standing on the balcony. A light breeze brushed past her face, and beneath the city lights, her cheeks were faintly flushed from the wine.She looked quietly beautiful.Felix’s gaze deepened.After a moment, he said, “Get some rest. I’ll let you go.”“Okay.”Miranda ended the call.She rested her hands on the railing and looked out at the city lights in the distance, her heart unexpectedly calm.Then she went

Morning light filtered through the hotel curtains.Miranda stirred at the movement of the light. She had barely slept. Her eyes were swollen, dark circles visible beneath them.Remembering the conference ahead, she went into the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face.She drew a slow breath.Eugene’s image filled her mind. In every video, he had seemed to be racing against time. Over the course of two years, he had worked himself into an exhausted, fragile old man.Ten years ago, artificial intelligence was nowhere near as advanced as it was now. Eugene could only rely on traditional methods, repeating experiments and recording data by hand.Step by step, he had tested, failed, adjusted, and started over.The thought alone brought tears silently down Miranda’s face.What had her father been trying so desperately to research?Back then, Susan’s blood disorder had still been in its early stages. Dr. Smith hadn’t yet identified a hereditary cause, so Eugene couldn’t have kn
