However, in the next second, another hand stopped Sam's hand in midair. He frowned when he saw who it was. "It's you?" he said in an unkind tone."Dr. Jefferson, why—" Miranda mumbled. At that moment, she got choked up.Paul's gaze fell on her face. "Are you alright?"Miranda nodded. "Yes," she said
Sam regarded Hansel calmly. "I asked you, didn't I? Weren't you the one who let me pursue her? So why are you kicking up a fuss now?"Hansel remembered the group chat from a while back, and his face suddenly turned as white as a sheet.Miranda began to quake even more violently, swaying back and for
"Really?" Miranda asked.Paul nodded. "Yes."Miranda took a deep breath. "Thank you. I feel much better."Paul watched her collect her emotions and felt slightly more relieved. "Are you hungry?" he asked. "I remember that there's a decent Dolorian restaurant nearby."After giving it some thought, Mi
Paul waved his hand. "I'm not in a rush to get it back."It was just a jacket. He had more in his closet."I just came back to grab a few changes of clothes. I'm heading back to the lab right after," he said nasally. He was also wearing a mask. Just from the sound of his voice, Miranda could tell th
Miranda frowned at his confidence. Before she could say anything, a voice rang out. "Miranda?"Calvin had been eating nearby. When he walked past, he was surprised to see Sam and Miranda together through the glass window.They were at a café. It was undeniable that this was a common dating spot for
Deep down, Calvin blamed Sam for his lack of reservations. Two friends were fighting over the same woman, but it was Sam who revealed his cards first. Just what was going to happen?Sam waved his hand nonchalantly. "You don't need to give me advice. I'll find out for myself whether it's enjoyable if
The night Miranda found the condom wrapper, she had lied, saying that she was unwell and slept in the guest bedroom.She had been afraid that if she spent another second in the master bedroom with Hansel, she wouldn't be able to choke back her vomit.That night had been very dark. The wind had been
Miranda was finally back!She was wearing Hansel's favorite sexy nightgown. Her intoxicating smell was as alluring as he remembered.This time, he wouldn't let go ever again!He fiercely flipped her over and pressed her beneath his body, kissing her furiously. "Mimi… Mimi…" he murmured.Finally, she
Sawyer answered, "Alright."Soon, Miranda entered the house. "Grandma, did you call for me?""Come here, Miranda." Fiona beckoned her over. "Let me introduce you to the young scion of the Jensen family, Sawyer Jensen. You two probably met during the birthday banquet.""Nice to meet you," Miranda gre
Paul remained silent as he watched Sam walk away.How childish.Meanwhile, Miranda frowned. That couldn't be right. She had picked each one carefully and they all looked sweet. Sam was probably unlucky to eat a sour one. Paul and Sam picked two large baskets of strawberries and handed them over to
However, Sam's mind had long wandered elsewhere. Coincidentally, he stepped out of the study with a bright smile on his face when the maid came to call him. Sam hadn't gone to the office as he knew Miranda would be visiting. He specially came to the Garrison estate to wait for her instead. Sure en
Miranda felt that if she didn't find an excuse to get Joli out of the lab, he could easily stay there for an entire day. Then, he would pull another all-nighter. Did Joli really think he had some kind of superpower? He worked nonstop for two days with barely any sleep and no proper meals. Yet, he s
Miranda began, "Grandma, I—" "Aren, can you keep an eye on the fire for me? It's been stewing for three hours, and I just need this last touch. Make sure it's perfect, okay? It's too noisy here, so I'm going out to talk to Mimi."It sounded like Fiona had walked into the living room since the noise
Paul paused, then chuckled. "Why do you ask?"Miranda responded thoughtfully, "Because I think it's you. Am I right?"After a brief pause, he nodded. "Yeah."She smiled. "I knew it… No wonder you said we should let things calm down before making any moves. You'd already planned this beforehand, hadn
Madison sighed. "You don't get it."Sebastian gave her a puzzled look."I'm so stressed out," Madison wailed."What can I do to help?" When he saw the tears in her eyes, Sebastian panicked."I'm not getting enough sleep… Can I cut the morning run by ten minutes?" she sobbed."Sure," he said.Madison
Fiona sighed. "What's Mimi been up to lately? I've asked her to come home for dinner twice, but she keeps saying she's too busy. It's been more than a month since I've seen her."Aren put down his newspaper and glanced at her. "You're a grown woman. Why do you need your granddaughter around to keep
Miranda accepted the money and said, "I don't think Joli would accept it.""Just tell him it's from me, and refusing it would be rude. I'm sure he'll accept it," Christine said."Got it." After handling everything, Miranda resumed her usual routine. She shuttled between the lab, college, and home.
