It was late spring in Fairmont. After days of clear skies, a sudden spring rain began to fall.
When Quinn Avery stepped out of the gynecology clinic, she didn't notice the person emerging from the adjacent corridor. She crashed right into him, sending her paperwork fluttering across the floor.
"I—I'm sorry."
She quickly apologized, dropping to a crouch in a panic to gather her scattered documents.
An expensive, polished black leather shoe stepped firmly onto her papers. Unable to pull them free, she offered an apologetic smile.
"Excuse me, could you lift your foot?"
The man didn't move. Instead, Quinn felt a somber, piercing gaze bore into the top of her head.
Someone picked up a stray sheet and gasped, "Hymen reconstruction?"
The mocking, painfully familiar voice made Quinn freeze instantly.
It was Jade Winter. What were the odds of running into her at the hospital?
And the man wearing those expensive shoes—without a doubt—was her soon-to-be ex-husband, Miles York.
Ever since Jade returned from abroad with her child, Miles had demanded to terminate his contract marriage with Quinn three months early.
Over the past three months, he had been glued to Jade's side. Quinn had seen them together countless times.
By now, she was numb to it.
But this was the gynecology department. What were they doing here?
She stood up stiffly, watching Jade stroke her lower abdomen while casting a triumphant look in her direction.
Quinn's breath hitched. Was it possible... was she pregnant with Miles's child again?
Were they having their second baby?
The thought pierced Quinn's chest, releasing a suffocating wave of despair.
If it hadn't been for that accident four years ago, two people from such vastly different worlds would never have been tied together.
Quinn looked at the furious man questioning her, her heart turning icy. She pressed her lips together and said, "I'm not. You... you're misunderstanding."
Jade clung to Miles's arm, laughing softly. "Quinn, you really have no self-respect."
Passersby stared at the drably dressed woman, eyeing the intimate medical forms in her hands.
No matter how you looked at it, the whole scene was utterly absurd.
The crowd whispered among themselves, their eyes brimming with contempt and disgust.
Quinn paled for a moment. She grabbed her pamphlets and tried to leave, but Miles blocked her path.
His voice dropped to a dark, menacing warning. "Quinn, after the divorce, I don't care what you do. But right now, you need to remember your place!"
A suffocating wave of despair crashed over Quinn, leaving a heavy lump in her throat that made it hard to breathe.

Lol.. this guy is a complete fool , I dont know how he is the top predator , he rather believes Jade than Doctor's diagnosis 🙄 he is rich , if he didn't believe that particular doc ,he cud take her to another doctor. N he says he thinks of her as sis I mean no brother is this obsessed with his sis ,he does have a bio sis, he doesnt behave with her like that....
Whats wrong with grandparents in this kind of stories? They force the wife to stay even if she is miserable bcos they believe their grandson loves her but never tell how a married guy shud behave just enabling his behavior. 😏...
He can be friends with Jade with no boundaries but she cant be friends with Ethan? Such hypocrisy. So he does know the way he is being with Jade is wrong and still does it...
This guy brought the kid against her mom's wishes and he doesn't even respect her n when her kids are hurt she can't even fight? What gives him the right? He is just plain disgusting...
Why does he have authority over other kids? Why wud he send his assistant to bring the kids over against their mom's wishes? This guy is just stupid ,it's like a mad n stupid dog sitting on money n just doing whatever he feels like without an ounce of respect for others....
You are just a snob and holier than thou person....
His aristocratic upbringing stopped him from losing composure? Seriously , his aristocratic upbringing is not that great , he got no morals , only using underhanded tactics on a helpless individual . He got money ,so it's a viable sophistry when his heart is rotten. When the winter's family is in the wrong ,why is he scared of them attacking his wife and the winter's family doesn't even give him a shot n he still acts like a dog for them. Please don't make him the endgame for her....
It's for her own good . He is afraid of Arthur Quinn ? I mean what use is he as a husband when he's afraid of someone will ruin his wife's career n already had done once and he still doesn't have the guts to stand up for her? He can only show his power n abuse on innocent ones with no background like his wife? How disgusting is he? N he thinks he's above everyone and even when he looks down upon someone bcos she is a maid's daughter , when he is this spineless?...
Why only one episode uploading for the last 2 days?...
I would have accepted the jerk husband ending up with the heroine if he’s only powerful, intelligent but he’s so powerless and so stupid....
