Sienna began to panic. “Mia, I’m sorry. I’m sorry to you and to your mom, okay? I’m really sorry.”Mia, who hadn’t expected her aunt to apologize so humbly, blinked her big eyes and finally gave a small nod. Sienna let out a sigh of relief, but deep down she blamed Miranda.She and Miranda had never gotten along, and after she tricked Miranda that day and caused her to fall into the water, she was certain Miranda held a grudge against her.So, if her niece was giving her this kind of attitude, who else would have encouraged it but Miranda?She wished her brother would replace Miranda as soon as possible. If Xena were her sister-in-law, she would be overjoyed every single day.No one noticed that upstairs, Miranda was quietly watching by the railing. Her gaze was as calm as still water. She was deeply moved by her daughter’s fierce defense of her, but at the same time, she worried about Sienna using Mia as a way to get closer to Leo.How could she trust someone like Sienna, someon

The next afternoon, Miranda met Sophie at a cafe.Sophie handed her a few files and said, “These are the cases I found on SY Corporation. The company is currently caught up in a major lawsuit. Three hospitals have jointly sued them, and their reputation in the industry is pretty bad.”Miranda took the documents and began flipping through them.“You still haven’t told me why you wanted me to dig into Roger York,” Sophie said.“He’s Xena’s father,” Miranda replied.“What? Xena has such a wealthy father?”“More accurately, Xena is his illegitimate daughter,” Miranda said.She added, “Roger’s company is the main supplier for our lab’s equipment. I wanted to know more about his background.”“They may be financially strong, but judging by the lawsuits his company has faced over the years, he is far from an ethical businessman. Cheating hospitals out of money? That’s beyond shameless,” Sophie said with a sharp laugh. “Xena certainly has connections. Felix throwing in that six-billion

Miranda froze as Felix finished unbuttoning his shirt, leaving his chest bare. Even in the dim light, the sharp definition of his muscles and his flawless proportions were impossible to ignore. His broad shoulders and narrow waist stood out with striking perfection.A wave of panic rushed through her. Her mind scrambled for a way to escape. But with him blocking the doorway, even if she tried to run, he would just drag her back to the bed.Right now, all she felt for him was hate.“I’m not feeling well tonight. Go back to your room,” Miranda said coldly.Felix suddenly stepped forward. Miranda’s heart tightened, and the faint scent of his cologne drifted toward her. She shoved him hard. “Felix, let go of me!”Her strength was no match for his. In seconds, he pinned her arms above her head. Miranda broke into tears. “You bastard, let me go. I don’t want you to touch me. Don’t touch me!”The raw hatred in her voice made Felix hesitate. He released her wrists but stayed close, braci

“Miranda, let me give you some advice,” Fiona said with a mocking smile. “This is a place for saving lives, not for showing off your family background. I respect your father, but you will never be him.”Miranda responded with a calm smile. “Thanks for the reminder.”“Let’s wait and see. We will find out who develops the new drug faster, you or me,” Fiona said with pride as she tilted her head and walked away.Miranda went straight to the lab and immersed herself in her work. She began extracting compounds from a fresh batch of medicinal plant roots that had just been delivered.Two years ago, Miranda had cultivated research samples in the lab and successfully isolated a flavonoid compound from these roots. This compound had been proven to rapidly and effectively kill spherical viruses while causing minimal side effects, making it one of the most promising fast-acting treatments to date.Now that this virus had entered the country, even on a small scale, its rapid mutation rate pos

That evening, Miranda was at home watching TV with Mia. Around seven o’clock, the door opened and Felix walked in.“Daddy, Daddy!” Mia squealed, running over to wrap her arms around his leg.“Sweetheart,” Felix said warmly as he crouched down, pulling his daughter into his arms and kissing the top of her head as if he had missed her for a long time.“Daddy, you were gone for so long. I really missed you,” Mia pouted, her lips forming a small, sulky complaint.“Daddy had important things to take care of,” Felix said, ruffling her hair and kissing her again.“Daddy, since you’ve been away so long, you should give Mommy a hug too!” Mia suggested brightly. She thought Mommy must have missed Daddy just as much as she did, and a hug would make Mommy happy.The moment Miranda heard her daughter’s suggestion, she quickly stood up from the sofa. “Mia, let me go wash some fruit for you,” she said, clearly avoiding the topic.Felix’s gaze darkened slightly at her avoidance.When Miranda r
