She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 407
As if on cue, Jade Winter called him right at that moment. Miles ignored it.
Thinking about the scene she had caused at the banquet left him incredibly irritated. He really wasn't in the mood to hear her voice right now.
Who exactly was Jade?
He had always believed she was gentle, kind-hearted, perfectly reasonable, and obedient.
But what he had witnessed at the banquet... was deeply unsettling.
It felt entirely foreign.
It was almost as if a total stranger had slipped on a familiar mask just to smile sweetly at him.
When Miles didn't pick up, Jade switched to texting. [Miles, I can explain what happened last night...]
[It's not what you saw or heard. There's a massive misunderstanding. I admit, seeing Quinn get along so well with Mrs. Pierce made me feel a little left out. I genuinely just wanted to fit in with that circle, but Quinn completely stonewalled me. Her attitude totally ruined how Mrs. Pierce saw me. I got a little upset and said some things I shouldn't have.]
Miles read the message but didn't type a single word back. He had zero desire to engage.
Because of that stupid spat, he had completely misjudged Quinn and ended up lecturing her on the terrace.
And now, he still hadn't found a decent opening to apologize.
But then he recalled Quinn flat-out accusing Jade of locking her in the restroom. After a brief hesitation, he picked up his phone and dialed Jade's number.
When the phone rang, Jade immediately assumed her text had worked, that he had believed her excuses and wasn't mad anymore.
She frantically picked up. "Miles! You finally called back. I tried calling you so many times last night and you never answered. I was heartbroken..."
Instead of the comforting reassurance she desperately craved, Miles's voice was pure ice.
"Quinn was locked inside a hotel restroom last night and left freezing until morning. Did you have anything to do with this?"
All color violently drained from Jade's face. Her breath hitched, her fingers digging brutally into the edges of her phone.
Jade's internal panic hit a fever pitch. She bit down violently on her lower lip, the sharp pain finally sobering her.
Miles's voice was completely devoid of emotion. "Jade... if you say you didn't do it, I'll take your word for it. The cops are already handling the investigation. I'm sure the truth will come out very soon."
Jade had just managed to steady her racing heart, but that single sentence nearly stopped it completely.
"What? Quinn... she called the police?"
Miles's tone was dangerously mild. "Yes. Quinn was intentionally trapped in that restroom, leading to severe hypothermic shock. It's a criminal case now. The police are naturally stepping in to track down whoever tried to hurt her."
Jade felt as though all the oxygen had been sucked out of the room, her knees going weak.
That shameless bitch actually called the cops?
It was only a few hours in a damn bathroom!

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....
