"Overseas?" Mindy asked, feeling stunned."Yes," Miranda confirmed. "In Southeast Alanda, both the e-book and physical sales of 'Murder Weapon' and 'The Deserted School' have consistently ranked among the top sellers."Mindy was taken aback again. "I didn't even know those books were released overse
For years, Mindy had dreamed of having her mystery works published again. She'd approached Edith countless times, but Edith always had an excuse to push it off.And now, someone was suddenly telling her that her work could be published.Warren continued on, "If you agree, we'll immediately apply for
Meanwhile, Miranda and Lionel sat outside the café, watching through the large windows. Although they couldn't hear what was being said, Mindy's expressions shifted from dazed to serious, then to apologetic.That would suggest the conversation wasn't going well.Warren stood up, ready to leave, but
That night, Miranda's bank account suddenly showed an extra two million. When she received the balance notification, she froze for a moment.Then she immediately threw off her covers, got up, and ran to the next room."Mom, why did you transfer money to me?" she asked.Mindy and Lionel exchanged a g
That day, Miranda woke up early, first heading to the dean's office to register and then to the department to complete her enrollment procedures. The opening ceremony was scheduled for the next day.Since Miranda didn't need to move into the dorm, she had one less task to worry about and ended up wi
Madison blinked in confusion.Miranda took a cookie. "Thank you.""How is it? Does it taste good?" Madison gazed at Miranda with eyes full of anticipation, like a child hoping for praise."It's delicious, not too sweet," Miranda replied."I knew it! I've tried so many brands, and this one's the best
Madison murmured, "That Yasmine woman… you can't take her simply.""What do you mean?" Miranda asked."When I received my graduate admission letter, I joined the new student group chat," Madison explained. "Everyone kept talking about Yasmine."She was a top student at their university. Although her
Miranda's words insulted not only Hank but also Sophie and the rest of her group."So, you're that older graduate student?" Sophie finally gave Miranda a glance, her eyes filled with disdain as she sneered, "You certainly have a sharp tongue. I wonder if your abilities match your words."Hank chimed
After returning from the Garrison estate, Miranda finally learned that Paul had actually abandoned his work at the lab midway just to have dinner with her family."Dr. Jefferson, please come to the lab tomorrow to continue authorizing the access permissions." Esme's flat and emotionless voice came t
Paul had arrived quickly. During dinner, he had beaten Sam to it when he tried to sit next to Miranda. Sam had tried to take the seat on the opposite side, but Fiona had cut in and taken that seat before he could. …"So were you deliberately stalling him when you said the remote was broken before t
Aren couldn't understand it. "Why are you in such a rush? Sam has been single for quite some time, and you've never reacted this strongly before."Of all things, she wanted to set up a blind date."You… you're not sleepwalking, right?" Aren asked cautiously. Fiona turned to glare at him immediately
"Huh? Why didn't I hear Sam start his car? Has he left? Let me take a look…" Aren muttered as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered out. "I knew it! His car is still there. He didn't leave at all. Could his car be stuck in the snow? That doesn't make sense… It hasn't been snowing long
The night was dark and silent as the heavy snow fell. Inside the estate, Fiona glanced out the window. "Oh, it looks like it's snowing outside," she said. Sam remained indifferent as it snowed every year in Elgerson. To him.. Or rather, snow was nothing special to anyone who grew up in Elgerson.
Aren nodded. "That works too. Sam, you don't need to send them off then. Head home and rest early."Sam remained silent. Before long, a maid came in and reported, "Both boxes have been loaded into Dr. Jefferson's car."Paul bid farewell to the elderly couple. "Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Senior, we'll he
Miranda was completely unaware of what was happening at the chessboard. At that moment, she was sitting on the couch and watching a dating reality show with Fiona. Yes, a dating show. In Fiona's own words, she said, "I just love watching young people fall in love. If I happen to find a couple I li
Since Paul had arrived, Fiona invited everyone to head to the dining room. Sam caught up to him and said dryly, "Dr. Jefferson, you seem quite free today."Paul replied, "It's the end of the year, so both the college and the labs are starting their holiday break. Perhaps the only ones still busy at
Sam brought his laptop to the living room and sat cross-legged in front of the coffee table. The thick wool carpet and the warmth of the heater kept the winter chill at bay. He began working in an orderly manner. From the business department to branding, then over to finance and human resources… E
