She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 226

Quinn stepped in front of Yara, blocking Luke's venomous glare. Her eyes were chips of ice.

"You started the disrespect. Yara was just giving you a taste of your own medicine!"

"You—"

Julian pulled out a tissue and handed it over, trying to diffuse the situation. "Luke, go get cleaned up. This is Miles's party. Don't cause a scene and piss him off."

Luke snatched the tissue, wiped his face, and shot daggers at Yara and Quinn before storming off toward the restrooms.

Cody threw them one last contemptuous sneer.

"Birds of a feather."

He tossed the insult and stormed off, pulling out his phone to make another call.

Yara glared at his retreating back. "Nothing but a bunch of passive-aggressive jerks."

Julian looked at Yara and chuckled. "Quinn, your friend doesn't hold back."

Quinn felt a surge of pride. "Yara just refuses to let anyone walk all over me."

"Yeah, that's what real friends do."

The way he phrased it made it sound like he wasn't really friends with the other two guys.

Yara looked up, meeting the man's gaze, and smirked.

"Your friends are garbage. All they do is bully Quinn."

"Yeah, just ignore them."

Instead of defending his buddies, Julian actually agreed with her.

This took Yara by surprise. He agreed?

Miles York had taken Luna to wash her little hands. She was having the time of her life, running back to Quinn with a piece of cake.

"Mommy..."

Seeing the little girl—who looked strikingly similar to Quinn—run over and yell "Mommy," Julian's pupils contracted sharply.

This time, Luna didn't look at her mom, perhaps worried the Weird Uncle would glare at her again. She just nodded enthusiastically.

Miles's eyes lit up with quiet anticipation. "As long as you let me be your godfather, you can come play whenever you want."

Worried she hadn't understood, he elaborated.

"I live under the same roof as your Godmother. You can come find her every single day, or even live here with us."

Luna was deeply confused. Why would her mom live under the same roof as the Weird Uncle?

Shouldn't she live with Daddy?

Just as she opened her mouth, a harsh voice cut through the air.

"Miles, what is the meaning of this?"

Jack had tried to warn his boss, but it was too late.

Judith York stormed toward the garden with Macy York, Jade Winter, and Leo Winter in tow, practically radiating fury.
