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
A tall, elegant man with a refined and gentle smile was crossing the street. He walked toward the group and stopped next to Miranda. Madison said, "Oh, it's Dr. Jefferson. I was worried about Miranda going home alone, but this works out perfectly."She didn't think much of it at all. Sebastian and
Zach wanted things to go back to how they were.Winter let out a cold laugh at the thought. Back then, their relationship had been purely physical, with no emotions involved. Clearly, Zach was no longer satisfied with just that. He wanted more. However, that was something Winter neither wanted to
"Go on, curse me more," Zach said. "I love listening to your voice.""Zach, just how shameless can you be?" Winter asked."If I weren't, would I have fallen for you?" Zach smirked. Winter returned the smile. "That's true. You enjoy being cheated on, don't you? How about I sleep with a few more men?
Miranda explained the situation briefly. There was sudden silence on the other end of the line. "Calvin, are you still there?" she asked."Yes, I'm here," he replied. "Now that you mention it, I just remembered something.""What is it?""Zach would always bring up Winter whenever he came out to ha
Miranda contacted Winter's mother, Natalie. She didn't dare to say that Winter was uncontactable, so she could only probe indirectly to see if Natalie knew anything about Winter's recent whereabouts. "You want to invite her to go skiing at Mount Glacier? Well, I don't think she'll be free before C
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
