Miranda felt a lump in her throat but understood Christine's words. For Christine, research always came first. She didn't care about the length of her life but rather the depth of the sea of research.Perhaps she would never reach the bottom or might tire out on her path, but that didn't matter. Sh
Miranda blinked in confusion. She wondered if Matthew didn't have any conscience.After dozing off for an hour, she glanced at the clock and realized it was already 8:00 am. She quickly gathered her things and rushed to the lab.Paul noticed she was half an hour late and looked slightly off. "Didn't
Hansel's head was pounding, and his mood grew increasingly irritable. He switched to silence mode and set his phone face down on the table. He said coldly, "Continue."Everyone else kept their eyes on the floor to avoid any stray glances.After the meeting, Hansel returned to his office and glanced
Ingrid furiously marched to her room and slammed the door shut.Martha had just woken up the following morning and was still in her sleepwear when she heard Ingrid yelling from upstairs."Bring me to the hospital now."Martha's lips twitched. Last time, she had been flustered and genuinely worried.
Evelyn knew Hansel didn't want to keep Ingrid's baby. Moreover, Richard wasn't aware of the matter, and she was reluctant to tell him. She had a nagging feeling that he wouldn't support her decision to keep the baby. After all, Richard and Hansel were both cold-hearted, each more ruthless than the

Miranda spoke in a tone that was neither hot nor cold, her attitude as indifferent as always. Elizabeth couldn't help but glance inside the room. "Have you seen Dr. Jefferson?""Yes, we met at the banquet. We came back together.""And after that?" Elizabeth asked anxiously. "After what?" Miranda l
Elizabeth was pacing back and forth anxiously in the adjacent room. She glanced at her watch more than ten times in the last minute. She bit her lip as the quiet environment amplified the unease in her heart. She reached for her phone several times, but she put it back on the table in the end. Whe
Miranda sneered coldly. "Does this mean any woman with a bit of achievement must have climbed her way up by sleeping with men in your eyes? Speaking of which, let's just take a look at Dr. Rachel Browne from Echo Bay Institute of Technology. "Not only is she one of the country's top astrophysicists
Paul came looking for Miranda after asking a waiter for directions. Unexpectedly, he saw Wyatt chasing Miranda just as he approached. Paul blurted out those words in that moment of urgency when he saw Wyatt reaching out to grab her. Wyatt's hand froze in midair. Meanwhile, Miranda was momentarily
"Mind having a chat?" Wyatt asked.Although Miranda felt puzzled, she maintained a smile on her face. "I don't mind, but we don't seem to be in the same academic field.""Didn't you say during your speech at the forum yesterday that the charm of research comes from interdisciplinary collaboration? I
These old-timers like Crosby weren't strangers to trying to matchmake Paul, whether setting him up with relatives or pairing him with students. Over the years, they had tried countless times, and Paul's answer was always the same. "Not considering it at the moment."Crosby hadn't planned on bringing
