Tina smirked and said coldly, "Breaking up with Hansel will be the biggest mistake of your life. Without him, you're nothing."Don't get too full of yourself. Just because you aced the written exam, it doesn't guarantee you'll make it through. Let's see how it turns out." With that, she lifted her
Hansel was getting a headache from Tina's unreasonable outbursts. But the mention of Miranda made him tensed up instinctively.After returning from Marvedis, he sent countless text messages to Miranda using different numbers. As expected, he didn't receive any reply, so he made endless trips to her
Tina's angry gaze suddenly lit up with realization. She thought, "Oh! I get it now. No wonder she got first place in the interview." She quickly pulled out her phone and took several pictures of the two figures in the distance. In the photos, Paul was just a step behind Miranda, and his tall frame
Miranda took a while to process the comments. When she finally did, she said hoarsely, "I'm fine."Winter comforted her, "Keyboard warriors speak thoughtlessly and believe every rumor they hear. Don't pay attention to it or take it to heart. "I know how hard you've worked to get here. I won't let a

"Wait! I'm not calling to chat today," Sam said solemnly on the other end. "I've already figured out what happened in Marvedis."Miranda instinctively sat up straight. "Go on."He said, "Are you free? Let's grab a bite. There's something I need to give you."She frowned slightly and checked her watc
Miranda glanced at her phone. It was a call from Paul. "Hello, Paul, Merry—"Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of heavy breathing on the other end. Taken aback, Miranda froze for a moment. "What's…""Come outside, Mimi.""What?""I'm out front at your entrance. Come out."As
Austin stuck out his tongue at Yale. "Uncle Yale, shame on you! How can you compare yourself to little kids?" Yale was at a loss for words. Great, he thought, even the kids were bullying him.Suddenly, Susan thought of something and asked, "By the way, where's Paul?" "Oh, he got a phone call earli
Jenny was shocked. "Are they really that powerful?""Of course!" Quincey couldn't help but sigh. "I can't help but admire Miranda sometimes. Back when she needed money, she latched onto a rich young scion. Now that she's still young but craving for status, she went straight for a prominent academic
"Well, Dad and Mom still have a few jars left," Jenny said. "After thinking about it, we really shouldn't turn down Lionel's and his family's good intentions. Oh, right. Quincey, we still have to visit your maternal grandparents for Christmas. Let's head back now."The other members of the Sutton fa
Miranda walked over with a bright smile. "Aunt Jenny, the reason I gave the project to Jack back then was because we were working on a tight budget. Other smart home renovation companies were quoting too high. "Secondly, Jack's team was truly capable and qualified to handle the job. I would've like
Jenny had heard from other relatives some time ago that Jack's company was growing rapidly. His business had boomed so quickly that they could barely keep up with the demand. She had felt a little envious when she first heard the news. Jenny hadn't seen it with her own eyes and didn't know just how
Jenny's words dripped with sarcasm. It felt like someone had hit the pause button on the originally cheerful atmosphere as the smiles on everyone's faces froze. Lionel scratched his head and replied politely, "We were just lucky…""Oh please, don't be so modest! I've got terrible luck, and everyon
Mindy maintained a polite smile. "It's the thought that counts. After all, we're family. There's no need to compare."With that, Cynthia's expression softened into a genuine smile. "Mindy, you really do have a way with words. No wonder you're a famous writer."Jenny hadn't managed to gain the upper
Rena's smile widened and looked more genuine. "These are not cheap, right? You're really too much. We're just having a Christmas dinner with family, so there's no need to bring all these gifts."She wasn't like Jenny, who couldn't stand seeing others doing well. Her brother-in-law's success was a g
