Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 561 - チャプター 570

Miranda’s smile froze for a few seconds.“Daddy will definitely want to see me perform. Mommy, let’s go home and practice.” Mia tugged her toward the car with bright excitement.When they got home, Mia washed her hands, ate some fruits, and then climbed onto the piano bench to practice. Miranda sat beside her, guiding her through the piece. It would be Mia’s first time performing on television. Winning didn’t matter at all. What mattered was that she had the courage to get onstage.As Miranda watched Mia’s focused face, a mix of pride and complicated emotions rose in her chest.When Mia finished a piece, she turned to her with anticipation. “Mommy, did I play well?”“You did great.” Miranda gently stroked Mia’s soft hair. “The more we practice, the better you will be on the day of the performance.”“Okay.” Mia nodded hard and went right back to practicing.Mia kept practicing on her own over the next few days. Her performance was only a week away. During that time, Miranda sta

The music rose, and Mia's fingers moved gracefully over the piano keys, beautiful notes drifting through the auditorium.Miranda tapped the beat quietly, counting Mia’s rhythm. Mia was playing perfectly, hitting every note. Ironically, Miranda was the one getting nervous, her palms dampening with anxiety.At the judges’ table, Xena tilted her head, her gaze settling on Mia. Her elegant profile appeared on the large screen above the stage.Mia finished the last note without wavering. The hall erupted into applause. She stood up, bowed politely to the judges, and lifted her little face in a confident smile.The host crouched beside her with a bright grin. “Thank you, Mia Gibson, for that wonderful performance. Now, let’s hear from our judges.”The panel gave her high scores one after another. When it was Xena’s turn, she took the microphone and spoke in a warm, composed voice.“Mia’s performance was exceptional. Her emotional expression was beautifully handled. For a six-year-old,

On the way home, Mia set her trophy aside and went back to playing with her toys. When Miranda glanced back and saw that Mia did not treat the honor as something overly important, she felt a quiet sense of relief. A child, after all, should still be allowed to be a child.At the Gibson estate, Susan and Mrs. Gibson Sr., who had just finished watching the livestream, were both in especially good spirits. Seeing Mia perform so calmly and confidently on stage at such a young age filled them with pride.“Why was Xena there too?” Mrs. Gibson Sr. asked with obvious displeasure. “Why did Felix invite her to be a judge?”Susan was puzzled as well. She had thought Xena was still in Danesia. Just recently, Sienna had mentioned that Xena was over there. Could it really be that Felix had invited her back specifically to judge Mia’s competition?“I’m not sure either,” Susan said. “But Mia did so well. In the future, maybe she—”Before she could finish, Mrs. Gibson Sr. cut her off. “Mia is me

Miranda gasped and instinctively raised a hand to cover her mouth. She stared at the appointment letter in disbelief, her fingers trembling slightly. Atlantis Medical University was one of the top medical schools in the country. The significance of this offer was obvious.“This… this is so sudden,” Miranda said. She was completely unprepared.“It’s not sudden at all,” Samantha said gently. “Every one of your patented research results has reached an internationally leading level. And the clinical performance of the new drug this time exceeded expectations. The university believes you fully meet the criteria for a doctorate granted by special approval.”Miranda lightly traced the university seal on the letter. She thought of Eugene’s greatest wish in life, to see her earn a PhD. Now, with this long-overdue recognition finally in her hands, her emotions were overwhelming.“I am hosting lunch today,” Samantha said. “The entire lab is celebrating you. We will meet at noon. Go on, get ba

After Miranda and Coco left the restroom, Fiona bit her lip, leaning back against the sink. She let out a self-mocking laugh. “A doctorate? She actually has a PhD now.”Nina, standing nearby, tried to comfort her. “Fiona, don’t worry. You'll be just as successful as her someday.”The jealousy and envy churning inside Fiona were impossible to put into words. This honor was something she had dreamed of for years. Now Miranda not only had it, she had been granted it by special approval, which only highlighted how remarkable her achievements were.When Miranda returned to her seat, Samantha raised her glass. “Let us raise another toast to Miranda.”“Cheers,” everyone said together.Fiona returned to her seat shortly after. Aside from looking unhappy, she did not say anything else. With Samantha present, she could not afford to lose her composure.After lunch, Miranda carried the bouquet back to her office. As she was saying goodbye to James, she glanced at the flowers in her arms,
