Miranda’s eyes flicked toward the door. Xena walked in first, dressed in a chic yet sultry suit with her long hair flowing down her back. Hayden followed closely behind.Xena glanced up at the stage, and when she saw it was Miranda, her expression faltered. It was hard to tell whether it was genuine surprise or a staged stumble. As she moved to sit down, she suddenly lost her balance and fell straight into Felix’s arms. His arm shot out, wrapping around her waist and steadying her by the shoulder.Hayden quickly took his seat, while Xena lowered herself into hers with Felix’s help. She brushed her hair back from her ear and gave Felix a bright, playful smile before turning her gaze toward Miranda on stage.Her eyes shone with a smugness that only Miranda could recognize.Since she had just arrived, Xena assumed Miranda was only filling in with some simple opening remarks for the team. That thought vanished when Miranda’s clear, fluent Danesian rang out and her slender hand sliced

James felt an urge to step in, since the man hugging Miranda was his senior, Noah.However, Noah’s embrace was nothing more than polite and Miranda responded with the same kind of warmth that always respected boundaries.Noah studied her with open admiration. “I imagined you would be beautiful, but you are even more stunning than I thought.”Miranda met his gaze calmly. “Welcome to our academic exchange.”“It is our honor,” Noah replied.Miranda then looked toward Leo. She had not had the chance to greet him while on stage, and now that she saw he was still there, she offered him a warm smile. Leo returned it with a small nod.Xena noticed the brief exchange, and her suspicions became even clearer. She smirked to herself, certain that someone would soon be jealous.Felix, Xena, Hayden, and Leo eventually left. Coco wanted to step forward to congratulate Miranda, but Fiona shot her a warning look that made her stop.The school leaders came over to offer their congratulations, an

Mrs. Young sighed. “Madam, Mr. Gibson is truly a good father.”There was no denying it. Ever since Mia was born, Felix had indeed been a good father.“Mrs. Young, please go make dinner,” Miranda said before heading upstairs to be with her daughter.Lately, Miranda had devoted herself to spending more time with Mia. Surrounded by Miranda’s love and with James visiting often, Mia was happy and carefree.Early that morning at eight, Miranda planned to go back to Felix’s villa to move out the piano so she could practice with Mia.She sent him a message first, asking if he was home and whether it would be convenient for her to take the piano.Felix replied that it was fine.When Miranda arrived at the villa with the movers, she saw a red Ferrari parked in the driveway. Judging from the license plate, it belonged to Xena.Miranda’s brow furrowed. The divorce was not even finalized yet, and he already could not wait to let Xena move in?Hearing the noise outside, Felix came down from

Miranda had no choice but to explain. “Mr. Lincoln, we are already going through the divorce. From now on, Mia will live with me.”Leo did not look particularly surprised. “I heard Sienna mention it. Apparently, Felix is still having the assets evaluated.”“Yes. We are already living separately,” Miranda said.“What school is Mia attending?” Leo asked suddenly.Miranda paused. “Mr. Lincoln, are you thinking about transferring Vivian?”“It depends. If Vivian’s emotions get too overwhelming, I might have to move her to whatever school Mia is in,” Leo said.Miranda was taken aback. His love for his niece was truly like that of a father.She told him the name of Mia’s new school. They ended the call without much more conversation.In the meantime, Miranda was also preparing Mia for the new school year. Mia seemed excited about the change, and Miranda chose not to tell her that Vivian might also be transferring. She thought Leo was only considering it and might not actually follow t

When they arrived at the restaurant, Felix was already seated with two middle-aged men. He occupied the main seat at the table.Miranda’s eyes met his for a brief moment before she deliberately chose the seat farthest from him. Fiona and Coco sat down beside her.Ben rose to introduce everyone. “This is Mr. Gibson, our company’s largest investor. These are Mr. Leonard and Mr. Young, both key executives.” Afterward, he introduced Miranda and her group before everyone finally sat down.Felix lifted his cup, his gaze settling on Miranda across the table. A faint smile crossed his face, while Miranda lowered her eyes, her thoughts unreadable.Ben suddenly remembered the earlier discussion and his curiosity returned. He looked at Miranda and asked, “Miss Stone, we were just talking about DNA origami technology. I would love to hear your insights.”Felix had been speaking quietly with the man beside him, but at those words he looked up.Every eye turned to Miranda. Several gazes carr
