All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 1501 - Chapter 1510

A moment later, someone brought in the fruit.Miranda sat down and chatted with Mrs. Gibson Sr. for a while. Mrs. Gibson Sr. had been to a few auctions recently and had picked up several new pieces for her collection, all of them valuable antiques.By the time they finished the fruit, it was already nine.Sienna came home around then.When she heard that Mia wanted to stay at the Gibson estate for another night, she nodded happily.“Sure. Let Aunt Sienna take a shower first, and then I’ll come down and help you finish it.”Miranda saw that it was getting late. She still had several experiments to run tomorrow, so she stood up.“Grandma, I should head home too.”“Perfect. Take Felix with you,” Mrs. Gibson Sr. said casually.Felix seemed to have been waiting for those words.His dark eyes turned toward Miranda.“Would that be all right?”Before Miranda could answer, Mrs. Gibson Sr. gave Felix a look.“Miranda is tired. You can drive.”Could Miranda really say no?They live

In the darkness, every sense seemed amplified.But what kept replaying in Felix’s mind wasn’t the difficult situation in Norland.It was Miranda.They had only spent a few brief moments together when she handed him the medication, but in the middle of the night, even that was enough to stir something deep inside him, a long-buried heat that had been quiet for far too long.Felix realized what he needed right now was not a sleeping pill.It was a cold shower.He needed to calm down.He walked into the bathroom and turned on the cold water.Even though he had already showered, his body still needed the icy water to wash over it.He knew he had lost some control tonight.But when it came to Miranda, his self-control always seemed far too fragile.Cold water slid down the hard lines of his body.He closed his eyes.Twenty minutes later, the medication finally seemed to take effect. Exhaustion swept over him, and he finally forced himself to close his eyes.*Two days later,

Even in casual clothes, Mike still carried himself like a soldier.He stood straight and steady, with a quiet toughness that seemed carved into him after years of discipline and service.Compared to before, there was something deeper in his expression now. It was the clarity of someone who had brushed against death and come back with his sense of duty even stronger than before.When he saw Miranda, a smile appeared on his face.“You made it.”“Sorry. I hit rush-hour traffic,” Miranda said with a smile as she pulled out the chair. “Have you been waiting long?”“Not long. I just got here.” Mike chuckled softly and handed her the menu. “Take a look and see what you want.”Miranda took the menu, but her gaze drifted back to him.The buzz cut made his already sharp features stand out even more. With his clean, defined jawline, he looked even more ruggedly handsome than before.Mike noticed her looking and reached up to touch his hair. Then he turned his head slightly to show her th

Mrs. Young soon brought over a plate of sliced fruit and set it on the coffee table before going back to her room.Only Miranda and Felix were left in the living room.Felix picked up a slice of apple and asked, “Grandma wants everyone to dress up a little tomorrow. Do you have something to wear?”“Will there be other guests?” Miranda asked, looking up. Was Mrs. Gibson Sr. planning to invite the extended Gibson family too?Felix shook his head.“Grandma isn’t inviting anyone outside the family this year. It’ll just be us.”Then he added, “I can have a dress sent over for you.”Miranda shook her head.“That’s not necessary. I’ll take care of it myself.”Since it was only a family dinner at the Gibson estate, she could dress a little more formally, but there was no need to go overboard.Miranda picked up a grape from the plate.“Did you say goodbye to Mike?” Felix suddenly asked.“Yes,” Miranda said calmly. “I did.”Felix didn’t continue with that topic. Instead, he brough

“He only talked to me about the research,” Zion said. “I never asked too many questions. With Eugene’s influence back then, getting investment for a project wouldn’t have been difficult.”After saying that, he couldn’t help adding, “When Eugene agreed to let you leave school and marry Felix, he was probably thinking that if anything ever happened to you one day, Felix might continue his research for your sake and try to save you. I know that may not be pleasant to hear, but as parents, we always want to leave our children with the best possible path forward.”Miranda listened, and her eyes burned again.She could imagine Eugene’s anxiety and all the painful thought he had put into it.“In a way, he found you a family you could rely on in the future,” Zion said honestly.Miranda drew in a quiet breath.“I understand what he was trying to do.”“That’s why I was surprised and worried when I heard that you and Felix had divorced,” Zion said. “I even blamed Felix for it at first.
