She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 378

"It's fine, I was pulling too hard and got it stuck."

Quinn led Caleb—now disguised with pigtails—out of the restroom, her heart pounding frantically against her ribs.

Even though he was dressed as a little girl, his face...

She was still terrified Miles would notice something amiss.

Miles stood tall as a pine near the stairwell exit. His strikingly handsome, chiseled features drew frequent glances from passersby.

Beneath his sharp brow lay a cold, arrogant impatience.

Nobody had ever made him wait this long, standing out in the open like an exhibit for everyone to gawk at.

Quinn Avery was getting entirely too bold.

The moment she stepped out, he was going to teach that woman a lesson!

When Quinn finally emerged with Caleb in tow, Miles locked his gaze onto them instantly.

His ink-black eyes swirled with suppressed fury. Had Luna not been there, his voice would never have been so terrifyingly composed.

"Quinn Avery, you finally decided to come out?"

Terrified Caleb's disguise wouldn't hold up under scrutiny, Quinn refused to meet his eyes. She kept Caleb close, trying to minimize their presence and escape as quickly as possible.

"Why did you run? Were you deliberately hiding Luna from me?"

When Miles finally realized the "little girl" in front of him wasn't Luna, he froze, a flash of undeniable disappointment crossing his face.

Why was this a completely different toddler? Where was Luna?

He studied Caleb closely, confusion lacing his words. "Who is this little girl?"

Why did she look so familiar?

And why, just like Luna, did she give him such an inexplicable sense of warmth and connection?

Seeing this "little girl" completely extinguished the simmering anger in his chest.

It was such a bizarre feeling. Was this another one of Luna's cousins?

"Little one, are you Luna's older sister or younger sister?"

"Hello, sir. I'm Luna's older sister."

Caleb intentionally pitched his voice higher and sweeter, realizing the weird guy had almost recognized his normal speaking tone.

Miles's expression softened completely, like sunshine breaking through spring clouds. No wonder he felt such an intense connection to her.

So she really was Luna's older cousin. Then she and Caleb must be siblings?

"You're Luna's cousin, huh? What's your name?"

Quinn felt that he was acting bizarrely out of character today, though she couldn't pinpoint exactly why.

Desperate to keep him away from Caleb, she tugged her son forward, trying to walk around him. "Miles, we're leaving."

Miles's imposing figure radiated an undeniable pressure. His voice dropped slightly. "You weren't in a hurry while you were hiding in the bathroom all that time. Why the sudden rush?"

"Little one, what's your name? Tell me."
