Caleb watched the screen, a complicated feeling stirring in his chest.
If only... if only he and his sister were actually Daddy's biological children.
But he didn't look like Daddy at all. He looked exactly like that Weird Uncle.
...
Miles had searched the entire banquet hall but couldn't find her, so he finally resorted to calling her phone.
When Quinn saw the incoming caller ID, the smile on her face faded.
"Luna, Caleb, Daddy and I have to get back to the party. How about Daddy comes over to hang out with you tonight?"
"Aren't you coming back with him?"
"I won't be back until tomorrow. You two go to sleep first."
There was no way Miles would let her stay out late on her own. Luna and Caleb were a little disappointed, but having Daddy there was good enough.
"Okay, Mommy. We understand."
After hanging up, she forced a polite smile. "Ethan, he's looking for me. I should head back."
Ethan had noticed the caller ID too. Seeing she had saved his name as "Miles the Jerk," a faint smirk tugged at his lips.
"Alright. I've got some mingling left to do anyway, but I'll make sure to visit the kids tonight."
Quinn nodded and lifted the hem of her gown, heading back inside.
Miles spotted her as soon as she re-entered the hall. His long legs carried him straight toward her.
"Quinn, about earlier..."
"Miles, if you're here to force me to apologize to your precious childhood friend, save your breath. It's never going to happen!"
Right at that moment, Julian Fox walked over.
Quinn gave Julian a brief nod. Knowing the two men had business to discuss, she walked off in the opposite direction.
Miles curled his hands into fists at his sides. He wanted to call out to her, to apologize.
But the words caught in his throat.

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....
