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
Madison explained, "My dad said I should come back after graduating from my master's program…"Sebastian froze. He had never really considered that Madison wasn't from Jandersville. As the only child of her family, it was unlikely that her parents would allow her to continue staying in Jandersville
Paul's cheeks flushed red the moment he heard Miranda's words, like the radiant hues of a sunset. It made him look exceptionally handsome.Miranda stood at the entrance of her apartment and extended an invitation to him with a bright smile. Her gaze was unwavering as she looked at him. Paul's Adam'
At that moment, her gaze froze. There was a pair of boxers lying in a corner next to the washing machine!Miranda quickly averted her eyes once she realized what it was. In the living room, Paul seemed to have remembered something. His body stiffened as he cursed silently. Then, he immediately stoo
In the evening, Miranda finally stepped down from the lab bench, removing her lab coat as she went. Madison exclaimed in surprise, "Miranda, are you leaving?""Yes.""This early?"It wasn't that she was overacting, but this was the first time for a workaholic like Miranda to leave work on time. Wha
It was hard to tell how long it took, but Madison finally calmed down. The first full sentence she blurted out was, "Seb, are you crazy?"Then came, "Or did someone put a spell on you?"And finally, "How… How could you possibly like me?"The whole situation was so overwhelming that she couldn't help
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
"Sam is getting better at taking care of others," Fiona teased, chuckling. "When are you going to bring home a granddaughter-in-law for us?"Sam nearly choked on his food and coughed lightly. "Grandma, where did that come from?"Fiona immediately straightened up. "Do you think I'm joking? I'm seriou
After Miranda finished with her drink, Paul took the glass and placed it aside. Exhausted, she lay back down on the bed. Soon, Paul lifted the covers and slid beside her. "By the way," Miranda said, "Grandma asked me to visit the estate tomorrow. Do you have time to come with me?""Tomorrow?" Paul
