Miranda recalled Madison's usual appetite and glanced at the meager items in front of her. This small amount probably wouldn't even fill a gap between her teeth. She'd be hungry again in no time.Unexpectedly, however, Madison remained calm in her seat after two classes, showing no sign of needing a
Mason paced back and forth, muttering, "You've never cared about what people say before, so why suddenly try to lose weight? Is someone bothering you?"Madison had always been taught well—confident and cheerful, unbothered by her appearance. Even when she was excluded by classmates in elementary sch
Soon, the bell rang, and class began. Paul entered, saying, "Today, we'll be discussing molecular evolution and phylogeny…"During the ten-minute break, Madison lay listlessly over her desk. Seeing this, Sebastian could no longer keep quiet. "You've been in really bad shape these past few days!"Mad
Miranda wrapped her arms tightly around Paul's neck with her legs off the ground, clinging desperately to him. At this moment, she was like a koala bear hanging on a tree. And Paul was that tree. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to, but that dog scared me…" Miranda apologized while fidgeting,
The warmth from the warm water seeped through the glass and into Miranda's palms, but it didn't compare to the warmth she felt on her waist earlier. Suddenly, there was a series of knocks on her door. "Who is it?" she asked as she went over to open the door. Paul stood outside. "Here's your shoe.
They met again at the small restaurant outside the main gates of Bedford College. By the time Miranda and Paul arrived, Sam was already there. "Miranda, you're here…" He walked up to her with a smile, his eyes focusing intently on her. He ignored Paul, acting as if he didn't exist. Miranda said, "
Sam got down to business. "This week we will be focused on construction for the main structure. Currently, we are at…"Miranda began listening attentively when he got to the details, even slowing down her chewing to listen carefully. At that moment, the buffalo chicken bites were placed in front of
Willow replied with a smile before Hansel could reply, "I was the one who picked this place. I thought since it's close to campus, we wouldn't have to drive or make any reservations in advance. It's simple and convenient, and the food here isn't bad either."Sam grunted indifferently. It was unclear
Yale said, "Like damn. Nobody saw that coming. That was a big one—Vaughn Quaker's inheritance just dropped right into their lap.""Yeah." Alex nodded. As someone in the industry, he'd heard a few rumors. "I heard that Vaughn Quaker divorced his ex-wife decades ago. He was head over heels for his cu
Felix found it hard to believe Susan had softened her stance like this—Alex and Yale were even more shocked.Yale felt a twinge of bitterness since his mother had never given in like this for him.At her words, Paul's expression eased slightly. "…I was a little impatient that day too."Susan finally
Susan was momentarily speechless. Felix tried to convince her. "You agreed to call Paul to come home for dinner today, didn't you? Wasn't the whole point of this meal for you two to talk things out and clear up the misunderstandings? To mend the relationship?"He then sighed. "But look at you. The
There was a street food market right outside the guesthouse. The five of them strolled from one end to the other. By the time they made their way back, the sun was setting. The sunset painted the sky a vibrant orange with wispy clouds drifting lazily around the warm glow. "It's getting dark. Shall
Santiago lowered his voice as well, copying her. "Emi, you just touched my hand…"Emilia was at a loss for words. Two days before departure, she had requested a change of team members from the college administration. But somehow, Santiago had caught wind of it in advance. Before the administration
After training ended, Miranda and her team had three days to rest. In three days, they would depart for Harbener. This year, the International Academic Exchange Conference was being held in Farden, Harbener. Experts and scholars from all fields around the world would gather there. On the departur
Their noses touched, their breaths intertwining. Naturally, their lips met as well. At first, Paul's kisses were gentle and warm, like the soft glow of the spring sun. But soon, it became more urgent, more demanding, as if he needed more of her. By the end, his kisses crashed over her like a fierc
"Hey, Dr. Quimby. They've already left. Why are you still staring?" Santiago asked.Emilia withdrew her gaze and retorted, "It's none of your business."Santiago wasn't offended at all and continued smiling. "What's so interesting about watching other people in love anyway? Experiencing it yourself
Madison immediately reached for the door of the cab. "Wait… Miranda hasn't gotten in yet!"Sebastian sighed helplessly. "Dr. Jefferson is here. Do you really think Miranda won't have a ride?""Oh!" Madison finally understood. She glanced out the window and, sure enough, there was a parked SUV behind
