Miranda had forgotten to contact one person.In the afternoon, Paul called her to check how things were going on her end. At that moment, she was busy in the lab. They exchanged a few quick words before hanging up, and her last words had been, "I'll contact you once I'm done, okay?"But now…Frustra
Miranda said, "The data's already out, but it doesn't meet my requirements."Finley Nilsen, the senior technician, took a deep breath. "That fast?" Her speed amazed him—her data processing was as fast as a full lab team."Alright," he said. "I'll change and be right there. I promise I won't hold you
Sawyer froze on the spot. It took him a while to return to his senses. However, Miranda was already gone.…Miranda had a smooth negotiation with Harvey, as she had no objections to the price. Harvey was impressed by her straightforwardness and decided to finalize their partnership immediately. He i
Looking at Sawyer's resigned expression, Miranda didn't know what he was imagining in his brain right now. Nonetheless, she couldn't help but feel a little speechless. At 3:00 pm, the boarding announcement sounded over the speakers. After boarding, Sawyer walked around the economy-class cabin twic
Miranda asked, "Tell me honestly, when did you arrive?"Paul was about to say that he arrived ten minutes ago when the words caught in his throat. Finally, he gave her a helpless smile. "Alright… an hour ago.""Why did you come so early? Didn't I send you my flight details?""I wanted to see you soo
"Um… Did I say anything wrong?" Miranda asked.The veins in Paul's forehead were throbbing. She began analyzing with a smile. "The fact that he gave me a reminder instead of demanding an answer in a rage shows that he has a kind nature. At the very least, his values are solid. "Once everything was
Paul asked, "Don't you know why I'm smiling?"Miranda replied, "Should I?""It's because of you. What do you think?"Miranda looked into his eyes and saw a depth of affection that seemed ready to overflow at any moment. She asked, "Dr. Jefferson, let's play a game, shall we?""How does it work?""We
Miranda's biological clock woke her naturally at dawn. She got up, freshened up, and changed into her clothes. She had a class in the morning, but it was still very early. Miranda headed to the kitchen to check on the oatmeal she had made using the electric slow cooker last night. Steam billowed o
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
Paul had arrived quickly. During dinner, he had beaten Sam to it when he tried to sit next to Miranda. Sam had tried to take the seat on the opposite side, but Fiona had cut in and taken that seat before he could. …"So were you deliberately stalling him when you said the remote was broken before t
Aren couldn't understand it. "Why are you in such a rush? Sam has been single for quite some time, and you've never reacted this strongly before."Of all things, she wanted to set up a blind date."You… you're not sleepwalking, right?" Aren asked cautiously. Fiona turned to glare at him immediately
"Huh? Why didn't I hear Sam start his car? Has he left? Let me take a look…" Aren muttered as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered out. "I knew it! His car is still there. He didn't leave at all. Could his car be stuck in the snow? That doesn't make sense… It hasn't been snowing long
The night was dark and silent as the heavy snow fell. Inside the estate, Fiona glanced out the window. "Oh, it looks like it's snowing outside," she said. Sam remained indifferent as it snowed every year in Elgerson. To him.. Or rather, snow was nothing special to anyone who grew up in Elgerson.
Aren nodded. "That works too. Sam, you don't need to send them off then. Head home and rest early."Sam remained silent. Before long, a maid came in and reported, "Both boxes have been loaded into Dr. Jefferson's car."Paul bid farewell to the elderly couple. "Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Senior, we'll he
Miranda was completely unaware of what was happening at the chessboard. At that moment, she was sitting on the couch and watching a dating reality show with Fiona. Yes, a dating show. In Fiona's own words, she said, "I just love watching young people fall in love. If I happen to find a couple I li
Since Paul had arrived, Fiona invited everyone to head to the dining room. Sam caught up to him and said dryly, "Dr. Jefferson, you seem quite free today."Paul replied, "It's the end of the year, so both the college and the labs are starting their holiday break. Perhaps the only ones still busy at
Sam brought his laptop to the living room and sat cross-legged in front of the coffee table. The thick wool carpet and the warmth of the heater kept the winter chill at bay. He began working in an orderly manner. From the business department to branding, then over to finance and human resources… E
