All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 351 - Chapter 360

Miranda slammed the door on her way out, fuming.What was that smile on Felix’s face supposed to mean? Did he actually think she still cared? Did he think she was jealous? If so, he was giving himself far too much credit.Even so, she had to admit that Felix still had a way of getting under her skin. The damage he had done ran too deep to ever be forgotten.Since he was picking up Mia that evening, Miranda threw herself into work. She lost track of time, completely absorbed in the data in front of her.When she finally took off her safety goggles and glanced at the clock, it was already nine. Startled, she hurried to clean up and head home.By the time she unlocked her front door, it was almost 9:40. Laughter floated from the living room, where Mia’s soft giggles blended with Felix’s familiar voice.Gigi, who had been lying by Felix’s side, jumped up immediately to greet her.“Mommy!” Mia ran straight into her arms, her face glowing with excitement.Mrs. Young stepped out from

Xena leaned forward with a smile and placed a piece of foie gras onto Felix’s plate.“Miranda,” Leo said beside her, sliding a small dish toward her. “You might like this one.”“Thank you.” Miranda smiled politely and took it, deliberately ignoring the gaze she felt from across the table.Just then, Chairman Lowe stood to make his remarks. “Tonight, we’re honored to welcome leaders and innovators from all fields. Thank you all for joining us.”Applause rippled through the room as guests began chatting and toasting over dinner. Many stopped by Felix’s table to raise a glass. After all, he was the man everyone wanted to impress.At one point, a guest unfamiliar with the situation leaned in curiously. “And is this lovely lady the future Mrs. Gibson?”Xena smiled sweetly, resting her chin on her hand as she turned to Felix, clearly waiting for his answer.Felix gave a faint, polite smile. “Just a friend.”The room filled with quiet laughter. Everyone seemed to understand what that

When Miranda got home, she pushed aside the irritation Sienna had left her with. After a quick shower, she settled down at her desk and opened her laptop.She had two email accounts. One was for lab work and another for company matters. Keith always sent her a detailed weekly report summarizing everything about the company’s operations.At first, Miranda barely understood how the business world worked, but Keith made the reports so clear and thorough that she gradually learned how to read complex charts and financial statements on her own.By the time she finished reviewing everything, it was already past eleven-thirty. Without Mia at home, the apartment felt unusually quiet. To help herself fall asleep, Miranda turned on one of her favorite sleep aids, a recorded lecture from a top university professor. She listened to the calm, steady voice until her thoughts slowly faded and she drifted off to sleep.*The next morning, she arrived at the lab early. Samantha walked over with

James smiled and nodded. “That’s right.”He led Miranda and Coco upstairs to a private dining room. The DE team was already there, while the university side was represented by only one department head who was helping to host.Felix hadn’t arrived yet, so Miranda took a seat. Just then, Fiona coming back from the restroom stopped short at the door, her expression darkening instantly.She hadn’t expected that in just a few minutes away, two new people would join the dinner and one of them happened to be someone she absolutely couldn’t stand.“Hey, Fiona,” Coco greeted politely.Fiona sat down beside her, frowning slightly. “What are you two doing here?”Coco leaned in and explained softly that Miranda had been invited to give a guest lecture at Crestwood Medical University in place of Dr. Lewis.Fiona’s expression darkened even further. She had been stationed at DE’s headquarters lately and hadn’t kept up with the lab’s progress. Realizing that Miranda had been chosen to step in f

When Miranda returned to the private room, she immediately noticed a shift in the atmosphere. The others were looking at her with newfound respect. Apparently, while she was away, Professor Zimmer had spent the time explaining the significance of her research to the rest of the group.By the time Fiona came back, her expression had smoothed over, as if nothing had happened.Dinner lasted from six until almost eight-thirty. Felix and the DE team had driven in from Atlantis City, about a six-hour trip, and were planning to head back the same way. There were three cars in total—one for Ben and his team, one for Felix, and one for James.When it came time to decide who would ride where, Felix looked toward Miranda, but she turned to James instead.“I’ll ride with you, James,” Miranda said.“Me too!” Coco added quickly.Fiona raised her voice just enough for everyone to hear. “In that case, I’ll ride with Mr. Gibson. I wouldn’t want to crowd your car.”James’s car already had a few
