Nelly froze, and her entire body trembled as she tried to hold herself together."You can accuse me of hurting Minnie or blame me for scheming to marry you, but you can't question Sam's identity. That's not just an insult to me, but it's a betrayal to our son." Timothy raised an eyebrow. "So, you'r
Nelly froze, and her face was etched with disbelief. Her hands and feet turned ice-cold, and her body trembled. "You… you knew about that?" Timothy scoffed. "Do I look like someone who can be played for a fool?" He definitely wouldn't raise another man's child.As a direct descendant of the Cooper
"Yes," Timothy answered calmly. From a certain angle, he and Sam looked strikingly similar.Timothy pried Nelly's hand off his arm and strode away. As he passed Sam, he paused to pat him on the shoulder before leaving.She stood frozen as she watched how calm and unaffected they both were. Then, so
Sam couldn't figure out how Timothy had seen right through him."Tell me. Why do we Cooper men always seem to crash and burn when it comes to Minnie and Miranda?" Timothy asked.Sam stayed silent."Must run in the family, huh? Damn! What a load of crap," Timothy said with a short, bitter laugh as he
It wasn't surprising that the faculty and the college were on edge after Miranda's research paper was published in "Nature Biotechnology".According to the latest global rankings from the Journal Citation Reports, "Nature" was ranked tenth with an impact factor of 40.137. In contrast, "Nature Biotec
"Research and academic competitions are two different matters. Besides, we've already finalized the research team for the international exchange program. We're pushing full throttle on the competition training," Hendrix said.He added, "Plus, changing the team at the last minute isn't the wisest cho
Sebastian's expression hardened."Ugh, who cares!" Madison waved it off. "Why overthink it? If the college is up to something, they'll come to us." She knew they would find out soon enough, so stressing over it was pointless.Miranda agreed, "Exactly. Whatever comes our way, we'll deal with it. Why
Theodore wouldn't take a risk like that.Madison frowned. "The more I think about it, the more something doesn't add up."Miranda's expression turned serious. "…Yeah, it's definitely strange.""I heard from a third-year senior that Joli's parents aren't in great health and often fall ill. Do you thi
On most days, Zach would sleep during the day and pick up Winter from work in the evening. Then, they would spend a wild night in the apartment.Afterward, they were too exhausted to do anything but sleep until noon.Zach cleared his throat. Yeah, he had been pretty busy."Well… work's been a little
"What the hell! Winter? Hello? Hello!" Zach shouted into his phone. But she had already hung up before he could finish cursing. That feeling was like…An urge to go, only to have to hold it back forcibly. Zach slammed his fist onto the steering wheel in frustration. The steering wheel, of course,
Paul said, "No? Then come over to my place tonight, and we'll take a closer look."Miranda was at a loss for words. "Here we go again!" she thought. As the two returned to the lab, they could hear Sandy's excited voice from afar, "Oh, we found it! Found it! Oh my god! Thank goodness! Thank the heav
Emilia was at a loss for words. After a long pause, she finally spoke again. "One last question. Did you reject my résumé because I truly wasn't a good fit, or was it because… I gave you that candle?"Paul answered, "You truly weren't a good fit."He hesitated for a moment before elaborating, "Your
Only a fairy like Miranda could tame a slave driver like Paul!Bryan added, "You really saved the day and brought peace on earth."Miranda chuckled. "You guys are really too dramatic."As Sandy took the plate of food Paul handed to her, she pointed at the computer screen nearby. "Let me tell you, we
The person on the other end was shocked. "How is that possible?"Realizing he might have overreacted, he quickly added, "Maybe… they just haven't sent out all the notifications yet. My qualifications aren't as good as yours, and my research achievements are much weaker. There's no reason I got selec
Winter soon ended her call with Miranda, feeling dejected. She tossed and turned in bed, an uneasy creeping up within her. Suddenly, she sat up. "Why do I feel like I got tricked?"Meanwhile, Miranda hummed a tune after the call. Feeling good, she went to take a shower. After drying her hair, she
As Miranda and Paul reached the apartment building, she couldn't help but ask, "Why do you keep touching your head?"Instinctively, Paul rubbed his head again. "Tsk, that kid pulled really hard. I bet he yanked out a few strands of hair.""Yanked?" Miranda was puzzled. Paul nodded. "It felt a littl
Miranda nodded. "Alright. How about I trade the stuffed toys for you?"Austin's eyes widened in shock. "You want me?""Yes.""No way! Human trafficking is illegal!"Miranda retorted, "This isn't trafficking. It's a prize, so no money is involved.""It's still not allowed!""Why not?"Austin spoke cl
