She exuded an elegant, noble aura that seemed to bloom from the inside out, carrying a subtle, intoxicating fragrance.
Gail and Jack stood frozen, completely captivated. "Mrs. York, you... you look absolutely breathtaking!"
Miles was on the phone, but the moment he laid eyes on her, he completely forgot to respond to Hunter.
"Mr. York?"
"Are you still there?"
Miles didn't tear his gaze away from Quinn, but he forced himself to pretend he was still engaged in the call.
"I... just do as I instructed."
Hunter paused on the other end. *Do what as instructed?*
*Did the boss give an order just now?*
*Why didn't I hear it?*
"Sir, this dress looks like it was custom-made for Mrs. York. It's stunning."
Miles offered a deliberately detached nod, though a silent flutter of attraction rippled through his chest.
Quinn kept her face expressionless, though it was impossible not to feel a slight spark of joy at Gail's compliment.
However, facing that icy, indifferent man, she wasn't about to let a relaxed smile grace her lips.
Deeming the fitting over, she turned to go take the dress off.
Miles hastily hung up the phone. "Quinn, wait a second..."
She frowned. "What now?"
"Gail, bring the jewelry over."
Miles slipped his phone away and casually walked over, taking the velvet box from Gail's hands.
"Put this on. Let's see if it matches."
Gail assumed her boss wanted her to put it on Quinn. To her surprise, Miles took out the necklace himself and stepped behind his wife.

I would have accepted the jerk husband ending up with the heroine if he’s only powerful, intelligent but he’s so powerless and so stupid....
Can you make Ethan be the endgame? That Miles is a total jerk....
