All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Leo’s gaze flickered briefly, while Felix naturally reached for Miranda’s bottle of water. He twisted the cap open, then carefully set it back in place. Miranda glanced over with a calm expression, showing no intention of accepting his gesture. She never touched the bottle again.On stage, Ben’s voice rose with energy as he concluded his presentation. “Before I finish, I want to thank someone. It was a conversation with her that sparked the idea which led to today’s breakthrough.”His eyes sought Miranda in the audience. With a respectful gesture, he said, “That person is Ms. Stone. She is the one who inspired me. Ms. Stone, thank you.”Miranda smiled gently and nodded, composed as ever.The room erupted in applause. When it subsided, Ben said respectfully, “Now, let us invite Mr. Gibson to say a few words.”As Felix walked to the stage, Miranda rose quietly and slipped away to the restroom.Just then, Sienna walked in, ouching up her makeup as she said to Miranda, “You certainly

“Even with the title of a billionaire’s wife, what right does a divorced woman have to boast?” Fiona thought with a sneer.*At the noon meeting, the plan to move into the new laboratory was put on hold. Samantha was unaware that the equipment supplier was Fiona’s father’s company.“Thanks to Miranda catching the problem in time, the supplier is already being pushed to replace everything with new machines,” Samantha said, singling Miranda out for praise.Fiona’s eyes flicked toward her. Her mother had called earlier, upset that her father had not come home for two nights because of this issue. But Fiona could only keep quiet. She could not afford to be dragged into it.After the meeting ended, Miranda was packing up her things when Fiona walked over with a stack of files. “You hid your identity as Mrs. Gibson well. But I heard from my sister that you and Felix are getting divorced?”Miranda knew exactly what she was getting at. “Yes,” she answered simply.Fiona let out a cold la

Sophie tugged on Miranda’s arm and asked, “Is that Felix’s car?”Miranda turned and saw the vehicle trailing behind them. She recognized it instantly. “Ignore him,” she said quietly.After a few steps, Sophie glanced back again. “Looks to me like he’s playing bodyguard for you.”Then curiosity got the better of her. “So, how far along are you with the divorce?” She had been swamped with cases lately and hadn’t had time to catch up.“Nathan mentioned he’s still working with the tax office and coordinating with the appraisers and accountants. He said the process is complicated,” Miranda explained.Sophie patted her shoulder. “That means Felix really intends to split the assets with you. He’s being pretty generous.”Miranda gave a faint smile. “To me, it just feels like he’s stalling.”“Don’t stress. You two are already separated. Just let Nathan handle it and get you the best deal possible,” Sophie reassured her. Then she added, “But since Xena’s pregnant, the Gibson family must

“Does that even count as a reasonable request?” Miranda smoothed a strand of hair behind her ear.“As long as you agree, it becomes reasonable. Of course, you can also refuse,” Nathan replied evenly.Miranda still could not understand why Felix would set such absurd terms.“What is going through his mind?” she asked, hoping Nathan could give her an answer.Nathan gave a faint smile and adjusted his glasses. “If you want my opinion, Ms. Stone, I think Mr. Gibson may be leaving himself a path back—to remarriage.”Remarriage?That was something Miranda knew would never happen in this lifetime.Nathan slid a pen across the table toward her. “If you have no objections, please sign. I will coordinate with Mr. Gibson’s lawyers and set the divorce date as soon as possible.”Miranda signed her name and thanked him quietly.That evening, Sophie treated her to a celebratory dinner, a kind of countdown to freedom. They enjoyed the food, laughed, and went home content.The next morning, M

Everyone in the room could tell Fiona was nitpicking Miranda’s theory, but no one spoke up against her. Samantha only smiled and said nothing.When Miranda returned to her office, Coco walked in with a small bag of fruit. “Miranda, I bought these this morning. Want to try some?”Miranda reached out and took a bunch of grapes. “Thank you.”Coco smiled brightly. “We’re colleagues, no need to be polite.” She had been foolish before, offending Miranda without knowing who she really was. Now that she knew Miranda’s husband was Felix, she could only swallow her pride and try to win favor.After all, Felix was the wealthiest man around and the primary investor behind the entire lab. As long as Miranda was willing, she could easily be placed in charge of leading the entire team.*The weekend passed happily as Miranda spent time with Mia.By Monday morning, she walked into the county clerk’s office. At nine-thirty she arrived and waited patiently. At nine-fifty, Felix appeared in the
