In the perspective of the two men, what they saw was Miranda leaning against the pillar with her arms wrapped around herself, her cheeks flushed as she trembled uncontrollably. "Miranda? Miranda! Are you okay?" Paul tried to wake her up, but her eyes remained closed despite her trembling eyelashes.
In the open gazebo, Paul and Sam were sitting on the ground with Miranda in between them. Sam had dozed off, his head drooping down. From Hansel's angle, it looked like he was resting on Miranda's shoulder. Paul also had his eyes closed, but his posture was more composed than Sam's. He supported h
Madison and Sebastian also came over to help. Soon, the ambulance arrived. The nurse and doctor identified the patient. After a brief examination, they carefully moved Miranda onto a stretcher with Paul and Sam's assistance before moving her into the ambulance. The accompanying nurse called out,
Tina stomped her feet angrily as she watched her older brother drive off her pursuit of Miranda. She was his biological sister, and yet he didn't even consider giving her a ride…In addition, it was for Miranda again. She truly felt that she and Miranda were fated to be enemies!…At the emergency d
Paul knew the password to her lock screen and mobile payment…Paul replied in an indifferent tone without even sparing them a glance, "She told me."Sam and Hansel were both stunned to silence.…When Miranda woke up, it seemed to be daytime when she looked out the window. There was no sunshine, but
"What… What are you two doing?" Zach stood frozen in place, holding a wash basin. His eyes were wide, and he looked like a total fool.Miranda and Winter both turned to look at him simultaneously. "Why are you so slow? It took you an hour just to buy a wash basin." As she spoke, Winter took the was
Zach's hand wandered and slipped under her sweater, skillfully undoing the double row of hooks on her back. "Winter… Winter…" he murmured her name between kisses. His voice was gentle, yet his actions were aggressive, as if he was about to devour her whole. Winter had to exert some strength to pu
Zach suddenly said, "My mom has been asking about you a lot lately.""About what?" Winter still maintained a level of respect when it came to Phoebe. After all, she once gifted her a royal emerald bracelet. Speaking of which, she hadn't returned the bracelet yet…"She's been asking why you never com
Miranda was the picture of youthful vitality and demure grace, and Paul was momentarily captivated by her."Dr. Jefferson, Dr Jefferson!" she called out to him. Startled, he snapped back to reality. "I'm sorry. What did you just say?"Miranda couldn't hold back her laughter, and Paul looked even mo
Elizabeth couldn't hide her delight when she caught sight of Paul's back the moment she stepped out of her room. She called out to him without hesitation. To her surprise, the person she despised the most turned around at the same time as Paul did.Her smile faded slightly as she spoke, "Oh, Mirand
Paul tapped on the counter with his knuckles. "Your ID is needed to register your personal details.""Oh, right…" Elizabeth quickly rummaged through her bag. The people waiting behind her were beginning to grow impatient. Out of courtesy, they didn't say anything rude. Instead, they just let out a
The substitute lecturer was an unfamiliar face. He appeared to be in his 40s or 50s, with a balding head. His teaching method consisted of reading directly from the slides. There was no interaction, no humor, and lacking in any sense of entertainment. Soon, he lost the students' attention. "Where'
Hendrix suddenly thought of something. "Go check the number of papers published in 'Nature Biotechnology' by scholars within the country for last year."Beckett immediately opened his laptop. Five minutes later, he reported, "For last year, local scholars published a total of six papers in 'Nature B
In chess, a stalemate would result in a draw. With the first two rounds taken into account, the two indeed ended with a tie. Paul remarked, "Mr. Cooper, your chess skills are impressive."Sam replied, "You flatter me. However, praising me is just a roundabout way of praising yourself. Who knew you
Going downstairs, Miranda found Aren and Paul still sitting at the same spot as before. They were facing each other over the chessboard, deep in thought. She wondered if she had dreamed of taking a nap. "Mimi, are you up already? Come help me take a look. Paul is something else. He's already beaten
On second thought, Sawyer figured that Sam was Miranda's older cousin. It was normal for him to be annoyed after seeing through his intentions. After all, it was natural for families to feel protective over young women like Miranda. Sawyer quickly put on a smile. "Mr. Cooper, you're right. Since I'
Sawyer answered, "Alright."Soon, Miranda entered the house. "Grandma, did you call for me?""Come here, Miranda." Fiona beckoned her over. "Let me introduce you to the young scion of the Jensen family, Sawyer Jensen. You two probably met during the birthday banquet.""Nice to meet you," Miranda gre
