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
Coincidentally, Natalie and Phoebe had returned from the restroom at that moment. Winter quickly brushed off Zach's hand, and he promptly retreated to his seat. Phoebe sensed the tension in the air and asked tentatively, "Is everything good… between the two of you?"Zach didn't reply. Instead, he
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
"By the way, how's your family?" Miranda suddenly asked.Emilia was completely caught off guard. After a long pause, she finally spoke. "How do you know?""I heard from the pea… I mean, Santiago."Emilia's grandmother had been hospitalized recently. Her father had passed away years ago from liver ci
That night, Emilia couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned in bed before finally giving up. She spent the entire night researching everything about Miranda, including her résumé, research direction, and thesis publications…By the time she finished, Emilia had no choice but to admit that Miranda was t
Miranda remarked, "Dr. Vain, do you have a cramp in your eyebrow?"Santiago smirked. "Mimi, you do this every time. Oh, I get it. You actually like this kind of banter, don't you?"Miranda mentally rolled her eyes. Paul was way better at this game.She replied, "I've said this many times before. Ple
