She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 245

When Quinn and Yara walked outside, Ethan had already pulled his car up. "Quinn, are you two alright?"

"We're fine, all thanks to Marcus."

Seeing his boss, Marcus kept his gaze respectful and restrained, though he was genuinely surprised. Why had Mr. Leigh shown up in person?

"Mr..." Leigh.

Ethan beat him to the punch, speaking first. "Marcus, thanks for your trouble today."

Marcus: "..." The boss just thanked him for his trouble?

He stood there, stunned, not daring to say a word. He could only allow the corner of his mouth to twitch uncontrollably.

"Is everything handled?"

Marcus replied carefully, "Everything is settled. They lack sufficient evidence to pursue any charges."

Yara gloated, "Exactly! Macy just wanted revenge and filed a fake report. The cops will definitely give her a massive dressing down."

Thinking about how thoroughly the York siblings had been humiliated inside the station, she felt completely vindicated.

"Quinn, if that scumbag Miles ever gives you trouble again, you just tell me, and we'll tag-team him, hahaha..."

Quinn tugged on her sleeve—there were still other people around.

Ethan let out a soft cough. "Marcus, since everything here is wrapped up, if you have other arrangements, you can head out first."

From the second he saw the boss, Marcus had been dying to slip away. How could he dare stick around?

"I... I actually do have plans. I'll head out now. Let's keep in touch if anything comes up."

Yara and Quinn chorused, "Thank you so much, Marcus."

Noticing how deeply deferential the sharp-witted lawyer had been toward Ethan, retracting all his aggressive edge in his presence, Yara couldn't help but be curious. "Quinn, have you ever asked what Ethan's actual background is?"

Quinn shook her head. "He works abroad and said he wanted to return to start a business. Maybe Marcus is just a friend of his?"

Just a friend? Then why did it look exactly like a subordinate reporting to a boss?

"Ethan, I owe you another favor."

Yara pulled the car door open and winked. "Quinn, you sit up front. I'm wiped out today and just want to sleep in the back by myself."

Desperate to get home and check on the kids, Quinn didn't overthink it and slid into the passenger seat.

"Quinn, seatbelt."

Ethan leaned over and gentlemanly buckled it for her. "Are you used to sitting in the back?"

Quinn awkwardly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Yeah, I usually just grab rideshares. Yet here I am making you play free chauffeur for me and Yara today."

Seeing her radiant smile, a wave of warmth flooded Ethan's chest.

"Remember to buckle up from now on."

Quinn called her son. Caleb and Luna chattered over the line.

"Mommy, are you coming home? Caleb and I missed you and Yara so much."

Both toddlers had been terrified for their mother, but fearing they would add to her stress, they had rephrased it as simply missing her.
