She Walked Away With His Twins, While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 16

Unfortunately, he was a blind, brainless bastard!

Minus a hundred points.

Just as she was about to type a thank-you, Tristan had to tap the brakes to avoid something on the road.

The sudden jolt threw her slightly forward, and her finger accidentally swiped across the audio message.

Beatrice's loud, unfiltered voice instantly blasted through the car's speakers.

Quinn scrambled frantically to shut it off, but the entire message had already played.

The temperature inside the car was already cool, but now, a deathly, bone-chilling silence descended, making both Quinn and Tristan shudder.

"Quinn Avery, is this how you talk about me behind my back?"

The voice beside her sounded like it had crawled straight out of the underworld. Quinn's spine stiffened, and she turned her neck mechanically.

"Miles, you... you misheard. Beatrice was complimenting your wealth and your looks. You have to read between the lines."

Miles's already stormy face turned completely pitch-black.

"Jade is not a mistress. If I ever hear your people spreading vicious rumors about us again, I will hold them fully accountable."

"And let me warn you one last time. As long as you carry the title of Miles York's wife, you will uphold the contract. Don't go starting any scandalous rumors that could damage the York family's reputation."

Quinn wanted nothing more than to slap him again, and she would have, if her right hand wasn't wrapped in bandages.

This bastard warned her constantly. She had literally just called him out on it at the boutique.

Was he deaf?

No, he just loved playing deaf.

His so-called moral standards only ever applied to other people. He was completely exempt from them.

"If you don't want people talking, maybe you should keep your hands to yourself! You're a married man stringing another woman along every single day, and you have the nerve to warn me?"

"Give me a break!"

Tristan desperately wanted to cover his mouth and laugh. Who said the Madam was submissive and easily bullied?

Her tongue was razor-sharp, tearing into the boss until he couldn't even form a rebuttal.

He had never seen Miles York get chewed out like this in his life.
