She Walked Away With His Twins, While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 24

Julian Fox let out a dry chuckle. "Alright, Macy, didn't you say you invited everyone over for a BBQ today?"

Hearing this, Macy's eyes lit up. "Julian, I'll have the staff set it up right away."

She had hosted this BBQ at Regency Bay specifically to create an opportunity to spend time with Julian. She hadn't even invited Chloe.

Gail walked over. "Miss, everything is set up on the southeast patio."

Quinn glanced over at Julian and was surprised to find him looking back at her.

She gave him a brief nod, silently thanking him for defusing the situation.

Julian's lips curled into a slight smile, and he gave a subtle nod in return.

Quinn turned to head out but was blocked by Jack. "Ms. Avery, Mr. York said... you aren't allowed to leave."

"Why the hell not?"

What kind of power trip was Miles on now?

"Ms... Avery, why don't you give him a call? You can leave once you have his permission."

What was this bastard playing at?

If she had known, she would never have handed over the stomach medication last night. She should have just let him writhe in pain.

She had arranged to meet Yara Chase at the mall to see her kids. Being trapped here sent a surge of fury straight to her chest.

She dialed Miles's number.

Miles was in the middle of a meeting. Seeing her name flash on the screen, he instantly rejected the call.

Quinn was so furious her chest heaved as she cursed him in her head.

"Jack, did that jerk... did Miles say when he'll be back?"

"Probably this afternoon. Since Miss Macy invited so many friends over, he should be back early."

Jack added, "Ms. Avery, they're having a BBQ on the patio. Would you like to join them?"

Quinn had zero desire to mingle with Miles's elite circle. They lived in entirely different worlds.
