Tina answered, "I may not have published papers or produced any academic output, but those accomplishments under Yasmine's name… Wouldn't you have any idea how they came about?"Sophie's eyes flickered. "I don't know what you're talking about.""You might have forgotten, but I'm the heiress of the J
Miranda held the phone to her ear in a daze. The voice on the other end let out a soft chuckle. "What's the matter? You've even called me by name now, but you're still hesitating to meet me? "Or… could it be that you don't want to accept our current relationship, and everything you said before was
Miranda froze in surprise. Sam was wearing a well-fitted black coat that accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist. But his face looked thinner. His cheeks were slightly sunken, making his dark eyes appear even deeper and more mysterious. Sam curled his lips and picked up the cup. The tempe
Paul blurted out a steady stream of remarks, "It seems that you have a corn and tuna mayo sandwich."Sam remained silent as Paul continued, "I've had it a few times, so I recognized it right away."Annoyed, Sam thought, "Did I ask for an explanation? And yet you keep on talking. Stop trying to boast
"Troublesome? How so?" Miranda was surprised. She couldn't help feeling curious as this was the first time she'd heard anyone describe Mindy that way. Aren answered, "Don't be fooled by how gentle and refined your mother is now. When she was a child, she would climb trees to catch birds or fish in
Miranda said, "Sure. I only had a quick glance around when I came in. I didn't have a chance to have a close look at the garden."Fiona had a weak back. Sitting for too long would make her uncomfortable, so Miranda had actually planned to take her outside for a stroll. This was a perfect opportunity
"Just shut up and look," Winter said.Zach shot back, "You jaywalked, and you're telling me to shut up? Did you not see the traffic light? Half the honking earlier were people cursing you out, and the other half was for me. You—""Stop yapping for a second. Look at the table in the back. Isn't that
It wasn't clear how much time had passed, but the evening had arrived, and the sun was setting.Miranda slipped on her pajamas and padded barefoot to the window. As she pulled back the curtains, she felt disoriented, as if she'd stepped into a different world."It's getting dark." She turned to look
"Having a child is both a physical sacrifice and an emotional commitment. I want you to take this step only after careful consideration, not on a whim or in the heat of the moment," Mindy advised.Miranda nodded. "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing.""That's a relief." Mindy turned and linked her ar
When Miranda unlocked the door, she was pulled into a warm embrace."Mimi," Paul said.She could tell something was off. After a brief silence, she asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?""Don't give up. I'll take care of everything in our way. Just trust me, okay?"Miranda was confused at firs
Yale was completely shaken by what he had just heard. Alex was just as stunned.By the time they snapped out of it, the only thing that came to mind was, "Damn! That was brutal." They had the same parents, but only the golden child could pull this off without consequences.As for Felix…When his w
Paul said, "Her name is Miranda Sutton. We're in a serious relationship with marriage in mind. So, you can focus on setting up blind dates for Alex and Yale. I don't need it." He looked straight at Susan as he spoke. He was sharp enough to realize that last night's phone call might have been a setu
Susan nodded. "Okay. Let's eat first."Yale froze for a moment."What? Aren't you hungry?" Susan asked."No… Now that you mention it, I'm starving." Yale laughed, though he couldn't help but wonder why his mother had called the three brothers home for dinner. It didn't make sense. There had to be s
After sending the message, Paul put his phone away and headed home."Mr. Paul, you're back." The housekeeper, Tundra Valmont, smiled and stepped forward to fetch his slippers.He waved her off. "Tundra, I've got it."She chuckled.Among the three Jefferson brothers, Paul was the only one who insiste
Mindy said, "If you're lucky to meet someone who shares your vision, move forward confidently. But if you don't or part ways along the journey, you must be prepared to keep going on your own.""Got it." Miranda nodded lightly. "I will.""We women are pretty amazing," Mindy suddenly mused. "If there'
