She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 408
Was it really that serious?
She forced herself to collect her wits. A calculated gleam flashed through her eyes as she slipped back into her gentle, soothing tone.
"Intentional? Are you sure her getting trapped wasn't just a simple accident?
I remember seeing the floor blowers running outside. Did she ignore the maintenance signs, barge in anyway, and get accidentally locked in by the cleaning staff?"
"An accident?"
"Yeah, exactly! It has to be an accident. Quinn was probably just in a rush, completely missed the signs, and ran right in. Then a staff member accidentally locked the door, trapping her."
Miles pinched the bridge of his nose. "Jade, it wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately locked her in there. The hotel staff confirmed that the restroom was absolutely not under maintenance."
Jade turned ghost-white, realizing she had dangerously overplayed her hand. She scrambled to cover her tracks.
"Then who... who would intentionally target Quinn?"
Her voice trembled with subtle probing, utterly terrified the police had already stumbled across hard evidence.
"The cops are digging into it now," Miles replied flatly. "I doubt it will take long for them to find something."
"Miles, do you think she pissed the wrong person off? Quinn was soaking up all of Mrs. Pierce's attention last night. Maybe one of the high-society women in Fairmont got jealous and..."
She desperately tried to pass the buck, paralyzed by the fear that the investigation would lead straight back to her.
Her mind was a chaotic mess. She needed to track down her brother immediately to ensure he hadn't left any damning evidence behind.
Miles's tone remained utterly impassive. "The police will get to the bottom of it. You stay out of this."
Jade caught the distinct chill in his voice, and an icy dread spread through her veins.
She opened her mouth to argue, but Miles had already hung up.
A shivering dread settled heavily in Jade's chest. She could feel the agonizing truth: after the disaster at the banquet, Miles simply didn't have the same limitless patience and warmth for her anymore.
"I'm on it, Jade. Let me handle this. You don't need to stress."
...
St. Jude's Medical Center.
Quinn was busy processing her discharge paperwork. The two toddlers were hanging out with Gail in the hospital room when Miles strolled back in.
"Luna, playing with Caleb?"
Luna shot him a single, unimpressed glance before returning to stuffing her little backpack and pencil case.
It twisted Miles's heart; neither of these brilliant little toddlers wanted absolutely anything to do with him.
He reached out instinctively. If just one of them would acknowledge him, it wouldn't hurt so damn much.
It was a bizarre sensation. He desperately wanted to scoop her into his arms, to hold her close. "Luna, are you completely ignoring me now?"

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....
