Recognizing Julian Fox, Quinn asked politely, "Julian, you're here too?"
Julian stood with his hands tucked into his pockets, his posture relaxed and his handsome features striking.
"Miles messaged the group chat saying he was hosting a small gathering today, so we came by."
Yara stared at the man, pausing for a moment.
He was ridiculously handsome.
But knowing he was friends with Miles York, she figured he was probably cut from the same toxic cloth, so her expression remained guarded.
Sensing his lukewarm reception, Julian took the initiative. "Is this your friend?"
Quinn offered a faint smile. "Yes. Let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Yara Chase."
"Yara, this is Julian."
Julian possessed a flawless, striking profile. His tone was casual yet polite.
"Hello. I'm Julian Fox, a friend of Miles."
"Hi... I'm Yara Chase. Quinn's friend."
Yara tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. Seeing that he lacked Miles's insufferable arrogance, she relaxed slightly.
A harsh reprimand suddenly echoed from nearby. "Quinn Avery, what kind of trick did you pull to make Miles take your friend's kid as a goddaughter?"
Luke Lawrence had just grilled the staff and uncovered the shocking truth.
Miles had turned Regency Bay into a fairytale wonderland just to adopt someone else's kid as his goddaughter.
And it was the daughter of Quinn's friend, no less.
He and Cody Garrett were furious and had immediately called Jade Winter.
When she didn't answer—likely busy—he sent a barrage of texts instead.
"Quinn Avery, you're just a nanny's daughter. What gives you the right to talk to me like that?"
Luke sneered in agreement. "Exactly. Our circle isn't something women like you can just waltz into. You couldn't make Miles care about you, so now you're using your friend's kid? Pathetic!"
"Splash!"
Yara grabbed the water glass from the table and hurled the contents straight at Luke's face.
"If you can't speak like a human, then shut your mouth and save everyone the headache!"
Water dripped from his hair and soaked his collar, leaving him a disheveled mess.
Luke stiffened, his face turning a livid, venomous shade. As a wealthy heir, no one had ever dared throw anything at him.
He glared at Yara like he wanted to tear her apart. "You psycho! Do you want to die?"
Cody was equally stunned, furiously jumping to his friend's defense. "Quinn, you're a savage, and your friend is just as much of a shrew!"

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....
Can you make Ethan be the endgame? That Miles is a total jerk....
