She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 387
*Miles, I know my place. I don't harbor any delusions about us, so why must you humiliate me over and over again?*
The dresses sitting in the living room were all prepped for either Jade or Macy. What wasn't rejected by Macy was cast aside by Jade.
None of it was ever meant for her. Yet he had the nerve to claim he bought the gown and jewelry specifically for her banquet appearance?
She felt like an absolute joke, standing here in this dress just to be degraded.
Hunter managed to slip away from the crowd and hurry over. Seeing Jade hovering, the friendly warmth vanished from his face.
Jade knew Hunter favored Quinn, and since her goal was already achieved, she smoothly walked away.
Sensing that Quinn was visibly upset, Hunter asked in a concerned voice, "Mrs. York, did Jade say something to you just now?"
"She loves driving a wedge between you and Mr. York. Please don't let her get in your head."
Quinn lowered her eyes, her voice completely hollow. "Hunter, Jade said Miles bought Macy a bunch of dresses and jewelry to celebrate her upcoming music recital?"
Hunter nodded. "Yes, Mrs. York. Mr. York picked them out personally. But the dress you're wearing is also one he personally selected for you."
Hearing that only made the fabric clinging to her skin feel like it was burning her.
She didn't even know why she bothered asking. It was obvious Miles picked everything out for Macy and Jade, and she was just forced to wear their discarded leftovers.
Yet, like a fool, she still needed to hear the final nail in the coffin from Hunter.
Hunter assumed confirming that Miles picked the dress would make her happy, considering how long she had loved him. But instead...
The words didn't bring a smile to Quinn's face. Instead, a bitter, self-deprecating curve touched her lips.
Realizing he might have misstepped, Hunter frantically tried to fix it. "Mrs. York, he really picked this out specifically for you. He thought the previous dresses they ordered were too tacky, so he personally selected a few elegant gowns for you. Mr. York... he really does..." *care about you.*
Hunter swallowed the last few words, terrified Miles would chew him out for talking too much.
Quinn's heart remained as cold and still as a frozen lake.
"Smile. You took the million-dollar appearance fee, so you follow my lead."
The reminder snapped Quinn back to reality. She had already accepted his million dollars.
She couldn't just turn and walk away now.
She had to play the part of his wife on paper.
She rationalized it to herself: this was a pure transaction. He got his perfect public image, and she got the money.
With that thought anchoring her, she managed to force a polite smile. Her eyes softened as she greeted Mr. and Mrs. Pierce alongside him.
"Mrs. Pierce, you look absolutely radiant this evening!"

Lol.. this guy is a complete fool , I dont know how he is the top predator , he rather believes Jade than Doctor's diagnosis 🙄 he is rich , if he didn't believe that particular doc ,he cud take her to another doctor. N he says he thinks of her as sis I mean no brother is this obsessed with his sis ,he does have a bio sis, he doesnt behave with her like that....
Whats wrong with grandparents in this kind of stories? They force the wife to stay even if she is miserable bcos they believe their grandson loves her but never tell how a married guy shud behave just enabling his behavior. 😏...
He can be friends with Jade with no boundaries but she cant be friends with Ethan? Such hypocrisy. So he does know the way he is being with Jade is wrong and still does it...
This guy brought the kid against her mom's wishes and he doesn't even respect her n when her kids are hurt she can't even fight? What gives him the right? He is just plain disgusting...
Why does he have authority over other kids? Why wud he send his assistant to bring the kids over against their mom's wishes? This guy is just stupid ,it's like a mad n stupid dog sitting on money n just doing whatever he feels like without an ounce of respect for others....
You are just a snob and holier than thou person....
His aristocratic upbringing stopped him from losing composure? Seriously , his aristocratic upbringing is not that great , he got no morals , only using underhanded tactics on a helpless individual . He got money ,so it's a viable sophistry when his heart is rotten. When the winter's family is in the wrong ,why is he scared of them attacking his wife and the winter's family doesn't even give him a shot n he still acts like a dog for them. Please don't make him the endgame for her....
It's for her own good . He is afraid of Arthur Quinn ? I mean what use is he as a husband when he's afraid of someone will ruin his wife's career n already had done once and he still doesn't have the guts to stand up for her? He can only show his power n abuse on innocent ones with no background like his wife? How disgusting is he? N he thinks he's above everyone and even when he looks down upon someone bcos she is a maid's daughter , when he is this spineless?...
Why only one episode uploading for the last 2 days?...
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....
