In the morning, soft sunlight streamed through the windows, illuminating the side of Miranda's sleeping face. The edges of the curtains swayed in the breeze silently. Miranda was awakened by the sound of her phone ringing. She answered groggily, "Hello, Grandpa?"Aren's voice came through. "Are you
Clement quickly altered the prescription, printed it out, and handed it to Miranda. "Thanks, Dr. Hugh," she said politely. He waved it off. "No need to thank me. You're such a sweet young lady. Beautiful, polite, and well-mannered. You're a delight to be around."Fiona beamed with pride at his wor
Miranda asked, "Dr. Jefferson, why are you at the hospital?"Only then did Paul tear his gaze away from Sawyer. His eyes softened instantly when they landed on Miranda. "I…"At that moment, Silas walked up to them, clutching his stomach. He interjected and answered for Paul, "He's here to accompany
Sawyer scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly. "I'd like to, but…"Though Miranda didn't dislike him, she also didn't show any clear affection toward him.He was stuck in a state of emotional limbo, leaving him feeling frustrated. But even so, he was willing to endure it. Miranda was unaware of
Silas sighed and said, "Since you want to change the situation, why don't you talk to her and make things clear?"Paul remained silent while Silas continued, "You're scared, Paul. You're afraid that she'll reject you once you bring everything out in the open. Then, the two of you can't even remain f
Madison exclaimed, "Miranda, do you even need to ask our opinion on this? If you think it's worth it, let's do it. Just tell us what you need us to do. We'll definitely cooperate to the best of our ability!"Sebastian nodded. "That's right. We'll follow your lead. You can make the decision."Taken a
More than a year ago, Miranda borrowed Paul's experimental physics lab, where she met Silas, Sandy, and the rest of the team. Over the course of a few months, they went from strangers to close colleagues and friends.One day, Silas noticed how unusually fast Miranda was processing the experimental d
"A breakup?" Miranda asked, surprised."You don't know?" Silas asked.She shook her head.Silas sat closer and lowered his voice as he prepared to share some juicy gossip. "When Paul got back from Moonville, two days barely passed before he fired Elizabeth," he began. The mention of this triggered
Walking on the snow-covered ground was a struggle as one foot would be deep in snow, while the other was on the surface. However, it was pure joy for Miranda. As soon as the sky brightened, she rushed downstairs to play in the snow for several days in a row. Ever since Paul went to the lab that da
"It smells amazing…" As soon as Paul stepped into the house, he was greeted by a rich aroma of something baking. Miranda walked out of the kitchen with a smile. She held a slice of rum cake on a plate in her hands. "Your nose is quite sharp, huh?""It smells too good. How could I not smell it?""T
"Just some daily necessities." Miranda's reaction was quick, and she hesitated for only two seconds. Sam's gaze sharpened, and his lips pressed into a thin line. The shipping label on the topmost parcel in the shopping bag gave nothing away, but the word "Durex" was printed on the packing tape wra
Miranda turned and left the alley. She headed toward the supermarket happily. Apart from fresh vegetables and fruits, she also bought butter, heavy cream, flour, and other baking ingredients. She planned to use up those bottles of fresh milk just in time before they expired. On her way home, Miran
After a long silence, Fiona finally spoke again. "Sam, you should think things through carefully before saying them. Once they're said, words can never be taken back.""I know, but I still want to say them," Sam replied. "You say you like Miranda, but what about her? Does she like you?" Fiona's wi
Paul really was a better man than him.At this thought, Hansel lowered his gaze and smiled self-mockingly. It served him right."This is karma," he thought. Hansel wasn't the only one staring blankly out the window, lost in thought. There was also… Sam. The glaring words on his phone screen felt l
Miranda posted nine photos on her social media with a caption, "From my boyfriend."She was frustrated. Why was she restricted to only nine photos on her feed? If she posted more than nine, it would turn into a video automatically. If she could, she would have posted 90 photos. After all, they were
As soon as Miranda stepped out of the building, she swept her gaze across the vast stretch of white snow and saw a man dressed in a down jacket. Paul turned to Miranda with a smile the moment he heard the sound of footsteps. Stunned, Miranda exclaimed in surprise, "Paul? When did you come downstai
After returning from the Garrison estate, Miranda finally learned that Paul had actually abandoned his work at the lab midway just to have dinner with her family."Dr. Jefferson, please come to the lab tomorrow to continue authorizing the access permissions." Esme's flat and emotionless voice came t
