Miranda checked the fridge as soon as she reached her apartment. There were still plenty of groceries left from yesterday. She decided to whip up a beef stew, pork ribs, scrambled eggs, and some salad. Her movements were swift as she washed and chopped up the vegetables. On the other hand, Solomon
Despite the delicious and appetizing dishes, Solomon felt uneasy throughout the meal. He finally managed to finish eating and quickly excused himself. The apartment suddenly became quiet all of a sudden.As Miranda cleaned up the dishes, Tina's words echoed in her mind. Gastric perforation…While s
The temperature had been rising since the beginning of July. The weather forecast issued a red alert due to the high temperature of 95 degrees Fahrenheit, which had persisted for a week. After repeated calculations and verifications, there was finally some progress in Paul's experiment. With great
This was a rare opportunity for Miranda."If you're interested, you can take this home and look it over carefully." Paul took out a USB drive and placed it in front of her. "This contains the details of the experiment materials." Miranda looked up, her bright eyes filled with emotion. "Thank you. I
Miranda finished her morning run and took a shower. When she came out, she noticed the new pink succulent among the rows of differently-shaped green ones on her balcony.She gently poked the leaves with her finger. Her mood improved considerably when she laid her eyes on the soft and tender succulen
Seated on the couch, Sam smiled faintly when he saw the awkward expression on Calvin's face. "You really don't have to worry about that. After all, Calvin was the one who lied and said that he wanted to eat it, so Miranda made the soup for him. As for her, she won't be coming." Hansel's face darke
At the library, Miranda had been working on two practice papers in a row. She got stuck on the last question for both papers. She'd been trying to solve it for a long time, but she still couldn't find the answer. Finally, she remembered seeing a similar problem in a book and got up to look for the
Hansel endured the lecture for a few seconds before hanging up abruptly. Then, he switched his phone to flight mode. Finally, he had some peace and quiet.Once he got home, he felt less agitated and let out a long breath. As he was about to go upstairs, he changed his mind and found himself turning
By force? Sam chuckled. "Well, that's if you actually managed to grab hold of it."Timothy retorted, "How would you know you can't if you haven't tried?""What? Are you going to pursue Aunt Minnie? Heh… First of all, there's no way you'll get past my grandparents."Timothy made no comment on that.
"No way… Are you a big shot? You even brought your bodyguards to get drunk at a bar?" "Who knows?" Sam retorted.…Sam asked his bodyguards to stand closer deliberately so that he could finally have some peace and quiet. He poured himself another drink, but unlike last night, he didn't chug it down
Now, Timothy and Mindy were no longer the childhood sweethearts they once were. Their lives had diverged, with separate marriages and entirely different paths."Do you remember when we were kids, the promises we made about what we wanted to be when we grew up?" Timothy was the first to break the sil
Timothy waved his hand dismissively. "No need, I'll serve myself…""Nonsense! We're all family here." Before Timothy could finish, Lionel had already added two heaping servings of ribs to his plate.Timothy froze, momentarily at a loss for words.Nelly smiled sweetly, but her gaze toward Timothy was
The moment seemed to pull Timothy back in time, to when they were just young adults in their 20s. Their world revolved solely around each other, yet held back by the unspoken.His heart stirred. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, Mindy stood up and broke the spell. "I sh
Nelly's smile became slightly strained. "Is that so? Lionel is truly a family man…"As everyone enjoyed their meal, the doorbell suddenly rang. Sam put down his cutlery. "I'll get it," he said, heading to the entryway.A few seconds later, his surprised voice echoed through the house. "Dad? What are
Mindy only asked Miranda to contact Sam because the two of them already knew each other.Back when Lionel's wallet was stolen at the train station, Miranda had introduced Sam to them. She called him "Mr. Cooper" and explained that he was a friend. Later, Sam had even thoughtfully dropped them off at
Fortunately, for now, Fiona was satisfied with Lionel as a son-in-law. He was gentle, attentive, and thoughtful, with decent looks and a respectable height.Having graduated from Queenstone College and now working as a physics teacher at a prestigious high school, he might not be wealthy, but he was
"A family reunion is always a good thing," Aren said with a heartfelt sigh, while Lionel nodded immediately in agreement.It was then that Mindy realized she hadn't introduced Lionel to Nelly."This is my husband," she said."Hello," Nelly responded with a faint smile. "My brother-in-law certainly l
