After dropping Miranda and Paul off, Winter drove to the bar. The ride was smooth. But just as she was about to park at the bar entrance, a Maserati zipped in from the side and slammed into her rear.Winter was furious. She slammed her door and marched to the front of the other vehicle. "What the he
After Mira finished speaking, she turned and walked away in her high heels.Zach chuckled and dismissed her words with a scoff. He found the idea of unrequited love laughable.After she left, a young woman in a plaid mini-skirt stepped out of the bar. Her long, fair legs were exposed, and her curly
Zach had a more comprehensive network than Alexander.Winter studied Zach, who seemed so confident, and her gaze turned skeptical. "Are you sure you want to talk about collaboration with me?"Zack replied, "Of course. But why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I can't handle it?"She size
"Where's the security? Someone stop them now," someone from the front desk said.In the chaos, Lucy dropped the pretense and shouted at the top of her lungs. "Where's Evelyn Stewart? I'm looking for her. Get her out here now!"She and her son, Franklin York, had arrived in Elgerson two days ago. The
The commotion in the lobby quickly caught the attention of the ladies gathered in the private room. They saw Evelyn being yanked by the hair while Lucy had her in a furious grip and shouted insults.This was about to get interesting. The ladies looked at each other and exchanged knowing glances.See
"Where have you been? I've been trying to call you for days. Have you really stopped caring about me?" Evelyn asked in one breath. The urgency in her voice escalated with each inquiry.Hansel replied calmly, "I'm on a business trip. I'm busy and can't answer the phone.""Come home now. I mean right
"If you don't want to wait, you can leave. It's not like anyone's itching to see you." Winter smirked. "How do you expect anyone to help you with that attitude?"Zach took a deep breath and felt the weight of the pressure bearing down on him. He knew she practiced Taekwondo. If he upset her, he woul
"Crap!" Winter slapped away the hand resting on her shoulder and stood upright. She was secretly relieved that she had tossed the cigarette butt earlier.After much effort, Miranda finally managed to close her mouth. "Uh… Winter, you forgot your bag…"She merely came over to return the bag, but what
Susan's attitude toward Miranda had never been outright hostile, but it was far from friendly at the tea tasting party back then. Even an outsider like Evelyn could sense the obvious animosity from Susan. How could a woman like that ever agree to let Miranda be her daughter-in-law?As for Susan…Sh
The traditional stuffed turkey included peas, ham, sage, carrots, chicken gizzards, and mushrooms.The turkey was cleaned, filled with stuffing, and roasted in a preheated oven. However, Hansel had a picky palate. He didn't like the smoky taste of ham, nor could he stomach the flavor of chicken giz
Madison was instantly rendered speechless. Sebastian glanced at her bench and sighed in resignation. "Tell me, what else haven't you finished?"Her eyes lit up. "Do you mean what I think you meant?""If you don't need my help, I can just…""I do! I need your help!" Madison exclaimed. She didn't hol
"What are you doing here?" Miranda asked.Paul arrived just as she and Joli stepped out of the conference room.Paul smiled mysteriously. "Why? I can't be here?""No. I mean… I drove today." She didn't need a ride."I know," he replied. "That's why I took a cab."Miranda was speechless. Alright, fi
Paul had Bedford College right where he wanted them. Hendrix had no choice but to give in.As long as the lab remained, any achievements would be credited to the college, whether Paul was still teaching there. But if the lab moved, his team would be entirely independent of the college.Hendrix had n
Everyone's reactions were mostly biased when the post was published. But slowly, the comments began to shift. Eventually, the thread was flooded with messages of "Congratulations!" and "So jealous!"After all, Miranda was already a rare sight, but Paul was even harder to come by. And together, they
"So, are you saying the school is behind this?""Not necessarily. Dr. Jefferson probably wanted to focus on research anyway. I mean, research gets results—what does teaching get you? A bunch of lovestruck students fangirling over him? Haha.""What do you know? That's just an excuse. There's way more
Paul regretted not landing a punch on Hansel when he had the chance.Miranda pulled her shirt back down and turned to him. "Where's my yogurt?"He chuckled. "Here."She took it, quickly opened it, and held it out to him with a smile. "Thank you for saving the damsel in distress today. Here's your re
"And you think an ex-boyfriend like you deserves it?" Paul shot back. The mention of "ex-boyfriend" immediately silenced Hansel.Paul glanced at his face. His eyes landed on Hansel's left cheekbone, which was scratched and still oozing blood."You should be grateful Mimi didn't get hurt. Otherwise…
