All Chapters of Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!: Chapter 711 - Chapter 720

Soon, the first performance took the stage, and the hall gradually fell silent.By the third act, the host stepped forward again.“Next, please welcome the renowned pianist Ms. Xena Spencer, who will perform her signature piece, Walking in the Rain.”Amidst warm applause, Xena walked gracefully onto the stage. She sat at the piano in the center of the spotlight and glanced toward the audience, specifically toward Felix. Taking a deep breath, her fingers hit the keys, and beautiful notes began to flow.Xena had never been just a pretty face. Her talent as a pianist was genuine. Since meeting Felix, she had dedicated herself to becoming a woman worthy of him. She worked relentlessly, practicing late into the night and forcing herself to grow. In her eyes, Felix stood far above her, someone she admired and felt compelled to chase.Under the spotlight, her champagne-colored gown shimmered in harmony with the pink diamond necklace. On the large screen, she looked radiant and refined,

The call on the other end took a while to connect. Xena didn’t wait for him to speak. Gasping, she said, “Felix… I think I’m going to faint. Please help me. I’m in the restroom.”Miranda had just returned to her seat when she saw Felix stand up abruptly. At the same time, Mike handed her a phone that was vibrating in his hand.She glanced at the screen. It was Mrs. Young calling.Miranda stepped out into a quiet side corridor and answered.“Mommy, can I have some cookies?” Mia asked softly.Miranda smiled. She knew Mrs. Young would have given her a snack anyway, but Mia always made sure to ask first. “Okay,” she said gently. “Two cookies, that’s it.”“Yay! I love you, Mommy!”Miranda heard hurried footsteps approaching from behind. She turned her head and saw Felix striding out from the restroom area, carrying Xena in his arms.Their eyes met.Xena lay pale against his chest, one arm draped around his shoulder, impossibly intimate.Felix’s breath hitched, and his entire body

Mike insisted on walking Miranda all the way to her front door before leaving. She invited him in for a cup of tea, but he declined instead.It was already late, and Mike knew where to draw the line. As much as he wanted to stay, he did not want to give Miranda any reason for misunderstanding or put her in an awkward position. That sense of restraint and courtesy left a very good impression on her.“Mom!” Mia ran over at once and wrapped her arms around her, lifting her round little face. “Mom, I didn’t eat too many cookies. I only had one small pack.”“I know,” Miranda said softly, crouching down to kiss her on the cheek. “You always keep your promises.”Mrs. Young could not help smiling at the scene. Under Miranda’s guidance, Mia was becoming more and more well behaved. Other than her looks, which still closely resembled Felix, her personality was starting to mirror Miranda’s more and more.All evening, Miranda had been on edge, half expecting Felix to show up at her door at any

“From now on, don’t touch my things without permission.” Felix’s voice came through the line in a clear warning.He wasn’t shouting, but Sienna had never been spoken to so harshly by Felix in her life. To her, it felt like being yelled at. The grievance surged up instantly.“Fine,” she snapped. “I won’t touch them anymore. Ever.”“Bring the necklace back,” Felix said coldly. “And stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.”“Do you even know how Miranda mocked Xena because of that necklace?” Sienna shot back, furious. “She humiliated her to her face, said Xena was picking up things she didn’t want anymore. She even said you were a man she didn’t want. And you’re just going to let her bully Xena like that?”Sienna couldn’t believe it. Since when had Felix lost all sense of judgment?Miranda had made it perfectly clear she didn’t want him, yet he was still going out of his way to buy her a necklace.There was silence on the other end for a few seconds. Then Felix’s restrained

Felix closed his eyes, resting them briefly. His voice was calm and flat. “Just leave it on the table.”“Felix, tell me the truth,” Sienna pressed. “Why did you buy a place right under Miranda’s? Was it really for Mia, or was it for—”Felix’s expression darkened. “Stay out of my business. Just worry about yourself.”With that, he turned to leave. Sienna grabbed his arm.“Felix. Are you still in love with Miranda?”Felix froze.For a few seconds, his back was rigid, stretched tight like a drawn bow.“Answer me,” Sienna demanded. “When you divorced, was it because she didn’t want you, or because you didn’t want her?”A storm of emotions flickered through Felix’s eyes. He pulled his arm free.“There are things you just don’t understand.”Then, in a low voice, he added, “Tomorrow, I’ll buy you another place. You’ll move out of here.”Sienna stared at him. “Why? I like this neighborhood. I’m not moving.”“You still haven't given up on Leo?” Felix shot her a cold look.Sienna’s
