When Fate Plays Its Hand (Miranda and Hansel) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 0437 

Paul cleared his throat awkwardly. “Um… Silas mentioned you should visit the lab more often when you. have time. Everyone misses you.” 

Miranda blinked. “When did Dr. Quinton say that?” 

“A week ago,” Paul replied honestly without thinking much. 

“Oh… Miranda dragged the word out, her tone teasing So, Dr. Quinton asked you to pass on the message a week ago, and you’re only telling me today? 

Yet he still claimed he wasn’t avoiding her? 

Realizing he’d said too much, Paul quickly retreated. Miranda watched him flee and couldn’t help but laugh. 

The afternoon sun was bright and warm, and the sky a brilliant blue dotted with lazy clouds. Everything seemed perfect 

With no classes scheduled for the afternoon, Miranda decided against spending more time in the library. Her course load had been heavy lately, and her home hadn’t been cleaned in a while. 

With the weather being so nice, she thought it was a good time to do some laundry and clean up. Maybe even cook herself a nice meal. The thought made her smile. 

But that smile quickly vanished when she saw the man standing at the school gate with flowers. 

Dressed in a suit, Hansel already stood out, but the large bouquet in his arms made him even more conspicuous. Students and professors passing by couldn’t help but glance curiously at him. 

“It’s that guy again, right?” 

“This time he’s got blue roses! Such a big bouquet must’ve been expensive.” 

“I’m so jealous of the girl he’s going after. He’s handsome and romantic! If it were me, I wouldn’t last a second.”

It was really so, so annoying. 

Miranda, who had been about to step outside the gate, quickly turned back around and headed toward the library instead,

over to a trash can, intending to throw them away. 

“Isn’t it a shame to throw away such beautiful flowers? A voice called out. 

Hansel looked up to see Willow smiling at him. And then, without hesitation, he snapped, “What does it have to do with you?” 

They were his flowers. If he wanted to throw them away, that was his business. 

Willow’s smile faltered, clearly not expecting such a blunt response. 

Today, she was wearing a dress, with her long hair falling softly around her shoulders. With light makeup. and a well–practiced, gentle smile, she looked graceful and poised. 

But Hansel spared her only a glance before looking away, uninterested in her beauty.
