She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 143

Hearing Luna's firm accusation, Miles's gaze narrowed. He turned to Leo, a sliver of doubt finally entering his eyes.

"Leo, tell Daddy the truth. Did you really just bump into her, or was it on purpose?"

Leo averted his eyes, completely guilty and terrified to meet his gaze. Yet, he stubbornly denied it.

"Daddy, I... I didn't..."

His eyes welled up with tears, and he lowered his head, looking like he was mere seconds away from sobbing.

"Leo..."

Jade immediately pulled her son into a protective embrace as he began to cry.

"Mommy, I didn't do it. She... she stepped in front of me. I was running too fast and bumped into her by mistake."

Seeing him look so deeply wronged shattered Jade's heart. "Miles, how could you not believe Leo?"

"If Leo says it was an accident, then it was an accident."

"He's so young; he doesn't even know how to lie. It's obvious Luna is just holding a grudge because Leo innocently called her a wild child before. She's just trying to frame him out of spite."

By the end of her sentence, a venomous edge had crept into her voice, though she skillfully masked her true malice in front of Miles.

"Luna, you're so young. You need to be honest. Don't learn from the adults around you to lie through your teeth. That's wrong."

Quinn's fury hit a boiling point, an icy lethality flashing in her eyes.

This woman's own son was lying, yet she had the absolute audacity to insinuate that Luna was the malicious one?

Fueled by righteous anger, she snapped, "Jade Winter! Your child injured Luna, and not only are you coaching him to lie, but you're accusing my daughter of holding a grudge?"

Clutching her son, Jade gave a subtle, theatrical shiver, acting as if she were terrified Quinn was about to strike her.

Looking like the ultimate victim of a grave injustice, she turned to the man beside her.

"Miles, look at her... Leo already swore it wasn't on purpose, yet she's still attacking him. I'm terrified she's going to slap me again like she did at the hotel."

Leo cried even harder, continuously denying the accusation through his tears.

"Daddy, I... I didn't do it. She stepped in front of me herself... I... I only pushed her by accident."
