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
Sebastian was at a loss for words. What followed was Madison's live commentary on the food. She gushed, "Oh my gosh! This is really delicious! The sauce is a little spicy, but it's not too overwhelming. It's the fragrant kind, paired with pepper and onions. This is absolutely heavenly!"The pancake
This minor incident had little to do with Miranda and her group. They just listened to the news and moved on. Still, hearing about their college's loss always left a bitter taste. Honors and awards in academia weren't just about the college's reputation, but they were also tied to national pride. T
Joli had gone ahead to take a number earlier before coming to meet up with them all at the main gates. Coincidentally, their turn was just coming up when they arrived at the restaurant. Joli remarked, "This was Madison's idea. It's so practical!" Madison clasped her hands behind her back and grinn
Miranda glanced at her phone. It was a call from Paul. "Hello, Paul, Merry—"Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of heavy breathing on the other end. Taken aback, Miranda froze for a moment. "What's…""Come outside, Mimi.""What?""I'm out front at your entrance. Come out."As
Austin stuck out his tongue at Yale. "Uncle Yale, shame on you! How can you compare yourself to little kids?" Yale was at a loss for words. Great, he thought, even the kids were bullying him.Suddenly, Susan thought of something and asked, "By the way, where's Paul?" "Oh, he got a phone call earli
Jenny was shocked. "Are they really that powerful?""Of course!" Quincey couldn't help but sigh. "I can't help but admire Miranda sometimes. Back when she needed money, she latched onto a rich young scion. Now that she's still young but craving for status, she went straight for a prominent academic
"Well, Dad and Mom still have a few jars left," Jenny said. "After thinking about it, we really shouldn't turn down Lionel's and his family's good intentions. Oh, right. Quincey, we still have to visit your maternal grandparents for Christmas. Let's head back now."The other members of the Sutton fa
Miranda walked over with a bright smile. "Aunt Jenny, the reason I gave the project to Jack back then was because we were working on a tight budget. Other smart home renovation companies were quoting too high. "Secondly, Jack's team was truly capable and qualified to handle the job. I would've like
Jenny had heard from other relatives some time ago that Jack's company was growing rapidly. His business had boomed so quickly that they could barely keep up with the demand. She had felt a little envious when she first heard the news. Jenny hadn't seen it with her own eyes and didn't know just how
Jenny's words dripped with sarcasm. It felt like someone had hit the pause button on the originally cheerful atmosphere as the smiles on everyone's faces froze. Lionel scratched his head and replied politely, "We were just lucky…""Oh please, don't be so modest! I've got terrible luck, and everyon
Mindy maintained a polite smile. "It's the thought that counts. After all, we're family. There's no need to compare."With that, Cynthia's expression softened into a genuine smile. "Mindy, you really do have a way with words. No wonder you're a famous writer."Jenny hadn't managed to gain the upper
Rena's smile widened and looked more genuine. "These are not cheap, right? You're really too much. We're just having a Christmas dinner with family, so there's no need to bring all these gifts."She wasn't like Jenny, who couldn't stand seeing others doing well. Her brother-in-law's success was a g
