She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 340

Miles stared at her intensely, a chilling frost gathering in his gaze as his lips pressed into a thin line. "You checked the data when you got home and realized it wasn't yours. Why didn't you return it to Quinn?"

Jade was frantic and guilty on the inside, but outwardly she played the picture of absolute heartbreak. Tears spilled down her cheeks, making her look utterly fragile.

"Miles, I admit I made a mistake, but I swear it wasn't intentional. The flash drive Quinn used was identical to mine. When she dropped it, I genuinely thought it was the one I had dropped, so I picked it up."

"Later at home, I opened the files and realized it wasn't mine. But I never stole her work!"

She was the professional translator. What did Quinn and Yara Chase even know? Jade suspected the novel wasn't even translated by just one person—it was probably a group effort.

So what if Quinn managed to speak a single line of French?

Jade would never believe Quinn actually mastered the language, nor could she stomach the idea that someone who had never even studied abroad could speak French better than she did.

"When I downloaded the contents and realized it wasn't my drive, I was confused and didn't look closely. It's my fault for being careless. I accidentally mixed up that file with my own translation and mistakenly sent it to Director Lin to submit for the award."

"Miles, this is entirely my fault. I failed to double-check my files and ended up putting the manuscript from her drive into the same folder as mine. When Quinn gets back, I'll apologize to her. I'll admit I was wrong. I truly let her down."

"But you have to believe me, Miles. I'm a professional translator who studied abroad. I've handled countless manuscripts. Why would I ever steal a translation from someone who barely knows a sentence or two of French?"

Jade would rather die than admit to his face that she was a thief.
