Miranda and Madison immediately turned their gaze toward Sebastian.He scratched his head awkwardly, "Why are you two looking at me like that?" It was a bit embarrassing."Seb, what does your family do exactly?" Madison's eyes took on a curious look.Miranda chimed in, "I remember you mentioning tha
On the other end of the phone, Mason remained silent for a long time. "…You're really planning to build your own lab?""Of course!""You're not just acting on impulse?"Madison responded, "Definitely not! We're serious about this!""Alright, ten million, right? I'll transfer it to your account in a
"Why do I need the transferor's signature? What for?"Miranda looked at the staff member in front of her, unable to hold back her question.The staff explained, "The property in question is quite large. Even though you have a formal transfer contract, according to regulations, you still need an addi
Joe responded, "Alright! I'll go—""Never mind," Hansel cut him off. "I'll go myself."…Miranda stood by Joe's desk, not far from the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. She walked over to the window, standing still as she looked down at the bustling traffic below.In front of her was a lively comm
Miranda snapped out of her thoughts and turned to see who had called her.Hansel stood before her in a well-fitted suit, looking formal. He seemed a bit thinner as his cheeks seemed slightly more hollow than before.As she studied him, Hansel was also greedily taking in the sight of her.She wore a
"I remember you liked steak but found cutting it troublesome, so you'd rather not eat it. Since then, every time we had Jovanian food, I would cut it for you."Miranda looked at the neatly cut pieces of steak in front of her with an indifferent look. She hadn't come here to eat, and simply sitting w
Hansel's deep gaze locked with hers, and he said softly, "You know what I want."Miranda frowned."It's simple—come back to me. If you do, forget the consent letter, I'll give you anything you want.""That's impossible!" Her answer was absolute and firm."Mimi…" Hansel let out a bitter laugh. "I kno
"It's funny in a certain way." Sam replied.Miranda had to admit he really knew how to twist things in his favor.Sam's smile faded as he suddenly turned serious, "Alright, tell me—what happened? Why did you have to see him? Is there something you need from him?"Miranda raised an eyebrow, feeling a
Winter said, "Mr. Jensen, we'll be off—"Suddenly, Miranda interjected with a smile, "Why not join us for a meal? After all, we've already booked the restaurant.""Really?" Sawyer was so thrilled that he could barely speak.Winter was puzzled. She gave Miranda a look that said, "Are you serious?"Mi
"Hello." Miranda nodded slightly in greeting.Sawyer left his friends behind and walked up to her. "You're here for a haircut too?""Yes.""Well… I mentioned wanting to treat you to a meal last time. Would you happen to be free today?" he asked. Miranda replied, "I'm sorry, I'm here with a friend."
Paul was at a loss for words.Miranda spoke again, "I'll need to wait a little longer. Dr. Jefferson, why don't you head to the garage first?""Alright."He wanted to stay, but there was no suitable excuse. In the end, he had no choice but to leave first. Miranda stood by the side of the road for a
"That's more like it." Madison hung up, but she still found it strange. Whenever they went out together before, Sebastian was always the one who arrived first. He would have already bought her favorite latte and snacks by the time she showed up on the dot. But today, something felt off. The feeli
At first, Wanda struggled because she typed slowly and made many typos. Gradually, she discovered she could use voice-to-text features. Later, a neighbor who ran a parcel delivery station in the neighborhood told her about becoming the leader for a group buy community. All she had to do was to shar
Miranda had been living in the lab for almost two weeks. Originally, the intensive focus period could have ended two days earlier. However, Madison seemed to be exceptionally motivated and decided to put in extra effort for some reason. She insisted on finalizing the second phase of the experiment
Miranda was momentarily stunned. "Dr. Jefferson? When did he get here?""Around 2:00 pm. He waited for over an hour. But since you haven't returned, he left about ten minutes ago." Ten minutes ago…"Miranda, is Dr. Jefferson under a lot of stress lately? Did their lab get assigned another project?
Miranda took the earring, thanked Sawyer again, and put it back on as she walked.He began, "Ms. Sutton…""Is there anything else?" she asked.Sawyer stammered, "I… I was wondering if I could treat you to a meal. How about tonight? If you're busy, just let me know when you're available so I can resc
Jordana froze momentarily, then chuckled. "You saw right through me… Fine. I'll lower it by 10%, but that's my bottom line."Miranda raised an eyebrow. "30%. That's my limit."Jordana paused. Miranda set her coffee cup down, stood up, and casually finished her drink. "Looks like we won't reach an a
