She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 398
Normally, he would gently comfort her when she acted like this. But today, he said nothing.
Instead, he asked coldly, "Jade, when you were with Mrs. Pierce earlier, did Quinn actually bully you?"
The question caught her completely off guard. The pitiful expression on her face froze.
What did he mean by that?
What did he mean, 'did she actually bully you'?
She had already told him she did! Why was he asking again?
Did he no longer believe her?
Or had that bitch said something to him?
Hiding the venomous resentment in her eyes, she kept her voice fragile.
"Miles, did she tell you something? I... I don't blame her. I just hoped she wouldn't take things too far. After all, I'm attending this gala as your secretary. If she makes a scene, it'll ruin the York Group's reputation."
"Normally, I just endure it, but at an event like this, I really—"
"Jade." He cut her off coldly, his predatory gaze locking onto her. "I just need a yes or no. Did she or didn't she?"
"Miles... you know how she is. She saw me here, saw us wearing the same dress, and definitely misunderstood the situation. That's why she embarrassed me in front of those ladies. But I... I really don't blame her for it."
Miles's expression turned terrifyingly harsh, stripping away every ounce of warmth from his handsome face.
The eyes that had once looked at her with indulgence were now dead and cold. There was no rage. No shouting.
He just stared at her blankly, as if inspecting what he once thought was a flawless treasure...
...only to realize it was full of ugly cracks he had been too blind to see.
A cold sneer flashed behind Hunter's glasses. "Have I? Or is it like earlier—where you clearly bullied Mrs. York, but played the victim and claimed she bullied you?"
Jade's face tightened, the anxiety clawing at her chest growing unbearable. Her voice pitched higher.
"Hunter, watch your mouth! What do you mean 'played the victim'? Just now with Mrs. Pierce, Quinn intentionally humiliated me! She came after me!"
Hunter pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and scoffed.
"Secretary Winter, your acting is over the top. When you were having your little spat with Mrs. Sheridan earlier, the boss and I were standing right there. We saw the whole thing. Oh, and we heard every single word, too."
Jade swayed on her feet. Every drop of blood drained from her face, leaving her as pale as a ghost.
Miles... he had heard?
How could this be?

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....
