When Fate Plays Its Hand (Miranda and Hansel) novel Chapter 562

“As for the budget, I’ll cover any costs that exceed it. Just go ahead and build according to the best plan,” Miranda said. 

After wrapping up her conversation with Jack and finishing dinner, she quickly updated Madison and Sebastian on the latest developments. 

Madison replied, “Don’t worry about the money. I’ll just ask my dad for it.” 

Meanwhile, Mason was enjoying his free time at his home in Gulsberg–watching TV, sipping tea, and munching on peanuts. Suddenly, he sneezed twice 

“Did you catch a cold?” 

“Don’t be ridiculous! It’s just my sweet daughter missing me,” he said. 

Miranda sighed before Madison could finish. “Do you think your dad will be okay with you asking without even checking with him first? He might blow a gasket 

Madison chuckled. “Relax. He won’t mind. Money is just numbers to him. Asking for this amount isn’t even worth a missing zero in his book.”

Sebastian raised an eyebrow. 

She continued, “Can you sort out all the lab certifications and go through all the administrative stuff in two months? We must ensure that anyone looking to nitpick can’t find a single flaw. Can you handle that?” 

She wasn’t being paranoid, but she just wanted to prepare for any eventuality. 

Sophie’s team had engaged in some questionable activities lately, which made Miranda acutely aware of their lack of boundaries. So, she had to take charge, consider all possible situations, and prepare her responses to avoid being reported again. 

“Got it. Leave it to me.” Sebastian said.

Jack acted swiftly. Three days later, he picked the perfect date to start the groundwork. 

Meanwhile, the deadline to vacate the lab at Bedford College had finally arrived. 

That morning, Sophie’s team was all present except for her. Even Joli, who rarely made an appearance, was there. 

Hank couldn’t keep himself still. He was eager to sweep Miranda, Madison, and Sebastian out the door like an overzealous housekeeper.
