After Miranda met up with the two, they went to the popular restaurant together. It wasn't too crowded at noon, but they still had to wait for two tables before it was their turn. Madison had held back her curiosity all the way. Finally, she couldn't stop herself from probing further. She asked Mi
Felix's oldest son took over the family business, and his second son was a top lawyer. His youngest son was focused on scientific research. "Did anything happen when you went to see Paul this afternoon?" he asked. Susan frowned and said deliberately, "Something's off with him.""What's off?""He a
Susan couldn't help but complain as soon as she heard Miranda's words, "The apartment building you're living in is in such poor conditions. There's dirty and smelly garbage everywhere. It's so unkempt. "Doesn't anyone clean this building? Look at these walls, they've turned black with mold. Look at
Miranda greeted him, "Dr. Jefferson, good evening.""Why are you just getting back now?"Miranda replied, "I spent some time at the library."As they spoke, the two had already reached the seventh floor. "Oh, right. I've already washed the lunchbox. Hold on for a minute…" Miranda entered her apartm
"We're finally done!" Madison closed her laptop with a deep sigh of relief, surrounded by a pile of empty soda cans. Sebastian suggested, "Let's go. I'll treat you both to dinner."Neither Miranda nor Madison declined the offer. They would have to work together for a long time, so there would be pl
Sebastian got up to pay the bill when they were almost done eating.As they were about to leave, they ran into Hank, Yasmine, Willow, and Theodore, who were entering the restaurant.Only TIna was absent. It wasn't surprising that she wasn't there. With her status, Tina never visited restaurants of s
Hank panicked and said, "Hey, w-what are you doing? Do you want me to sue you for invasion of privacy?"Madison replied, "This is a public place and it's legal to make a recording. Feel free to sue me, but I'm just a concerned citizen of Jandersville." "You—you guys…" Hank was so angry that he rese
The car stopped at the entrance of an alley, and Miranda got out. Sebastian and Madison had already gotten out ahead of her. Miranda walked in the direction of her apartment. Illuminated by the gentle moonlight, a few sparse stars dotted the night sky. The wind wasn't cooling as it carried the ling
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
"Sam is getting better at taking care of others," Fiona teased, chuckling. "When are you going to bring home a granddaughter-in-law for us?"Sam nearly choked on his food and coughed lightly. "Grandma, where did that come from?"Fiona immediately straightened up. "Do you think I'm joking? I'm seriou
After Miranda finished with her drink, Paul took the glass and placed it aside. Exhausted, she lay back down on the bed. Soon, Paul lifted the covers and slid beside her. "By the way," Miranda said, "Grandma asked me to visit the estate tomorrow. Do you have time to come with me?""Tomorrow?" Paul
That night, Paul and Miranda were resting against the headboard on the bed after washing up. One was reading a book, while the other was scrolling on her phone when they started discussing the matter. Miranda asked, "So, the Lancets decided to let it go just like that?"Paul replied, "What else? Th
By the end, Yolanda was nearly shouting. Alex met her gaze directly and shattered her denial with the calmest tone he could muster, "The DNA test report confirmed it. He is indeed my son.""You… you…" Yolanda couldn't even form a coherent sentence. It took her a long time to steady herself. She to
