Mindy held the books in her hands lovingly. "How did you know I've been looking for this set of classics?" "You've mentioned it so many times that it would be hard fornot to know," Miranda teased with a raised eyebrow.

Mindy huffed, "Well, you're the one who stayed away from hfor so long. Thank you, my dear. I really love this gift." aw She gave Miranda a warm hug with a smile. Her gaze was gentle as she stroked her daughter's hair. "I remember you always kept your hair long. Why did you cut it short?" Miranda leaned against her and said playfully, "Do I not look good with short hair?" "You look beautiful whether with long or short hair!" Mindy replied confidently.

A smile spread on Miranda's face as she snuggled closer to Mindy.

Since the written test is done, you'll have the interviews next, right? Shouldn't you return to Elgerson City, soon?" Mindy asked.

Miranda paused for a moment before murmuring, "Yeah.” Mindy chuckled. "I knew all along that we couldn't keep you in Lumberville. Now that you've grown up, you need to spread your wings. Go and do what you wish to do." Miranda's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she whispered, "This time, I won't disappoint both of you." Lionel was busy cooking in the kitchen. Holding a spatula, he saw his wife and daughter whispering. together. He called out, "What secrets are you two sharing? Wash your hands, it's tto eat!! "We're coming!"

Miranda put down her luggage and checked the fish in her tank. Luckily, Maroon and Ebony were still alive. She smiled and fed them sfish food.

Then, she went to check the succulents on her balcony. They were still thriving even after going so long without water.

Miranda turned on the floor heating and set about cleaning the entire house. Next, she changed the bedsheets and swapped the sofa cover. The soft and fluffy pink cover felt incredibly comfortable to the touch.

His heart skipped a beat, and Paul quickened his pace up the stairs.

He reached the stairwell, slightly out of breath. Before he could catch his breath, the door across his om or across hisc om apartment opened from the inside. A ray of light shone into the hallway and grew brighter as the door opened wide.

Miranda, who was behind the door, naturally noticed him. The surprised look in her eyes becas bright as her eyes the stars. She smiled warmly at him and said, "Good evening, Dr.

Jefferson." Her smile was infectious, and Paul found himself smiling back at Miranda. "Good evening. When did you get back?" "Just today." Miranda paused slightly at this point. She wondered how he knew she had been away.

Paul explained, "I heard from Winter that you went back to your hometown. By the way, congratulations on your high score in the written test."

"Thank you," Miranda replied with a smile. Out of habit, she couldn't help but extend an invitation as usual, "I've made dinner. Would you like to join me?" Paul shook his head. “I've already eaten. Maybe next time... We can celebrate after you pass the interview.

Miranda raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Are you so sure that I'll pass? What if I don't?" 2/2
