Was she in pain anywhere?
Her heart ached, and she tensed up, tossing restlessly on the mattress.
Miles's sharp brows twitched as he opened his eyes and stepped closer to the bed.
Seeing signs that she was finally waking, the exhaustion on his face faded slightly.
He had only managed to catch a few brief moments of sleep in that stiff chair all night.
He listened to her murmur in her sleep, "Luna... Mommy's... right here."
A strange sensation rippled through his chest as he spoke in a low, gentle tone, "Quinn?"
Why was she still worried about that little girl, even in her dreams?
Hearing someone calling her name, Quinn slowly stirred. Her vision focused on the blurry outline of Miles, and her pupils contracted slightly.
She lowered her gaze and turned her head away, unwilling to see him even in a dream-like state.
Or perhaps she was terrified he was here to snatch her children away, her entire body rigid with tension.
Oblivious to her panic, Miles asked softly, "You're awake?"
A breeze rustled through the branches outside, gently swaying the curtains.
Quinn finally realized she was lying in a hospital room. She glanced around, the memories of being trapped in that freezing restroom all night rushing back.
She also remembered someone holding her tight last night, whispering gently that he had found her.
Was that person... Miles?
Her chest tightened with immediate resistance.
She had absolutely no desire to owe him anything. She lowered her lashes, completely shutting him out.
Gail walked in carrying a food container and beamed when she saw Quinn was awake.
"Mrs. York, you're up! You must be starving. I brought some oatmeal."
Gail looked at Quinn's pallor, noticing how she seemed to have lost even more weight overnight.
Her heart ached for her. "Mrs. York, what kind of monster would lock you in a restroom all night?"
Quinn clenched her fists, a flash of suppressed fury in her eyes. She knew exactly who it was—Jade Winter—but she didn't have a shred of proof.
In the past, even when she had presented hard evidence to Miles, he had refused to believe her. What good would it do now without any?
She knew full well that telling him would be pointless. He wouldn't just disbelieve her; it would be worse.
He'd accuse her of being vindictive, claiming she was constantly targeting Jade out of spite and jealousy.
So, she merely cast a fleeting, empty look at Miles before lowering her gaze, completely ignoring Gail's question.
Miles faltered under the weight of that hollow stare. "Quinn, tell me. Who locked you in there? I'll call the cops and have them arrested."
Quinn found the offer laughably pathetic. She pulled the covers tighter around herself and remained silent, not even sparing him a glance.
Seeing her completely shut down, Miles frowned. "Why aren't you saying anything?"

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....
