She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 413

"There is no misunderstanding. The police have already filed a case."

Jade's voice filled with hidden resentment. "Miles, Wesley just had a moment of foolishness. Quinn is perfectly fine now, isn't she? Could you please step in and talk to her for me? My family will compensate her, as long as she drops the charges and settles."

Tristan's brow twitched slightly. Just because Mrs. York was physically fine, did that mean Wesley shouldn't face the consequences?

When Miles offered absolutely no response, a single tear rolled down Jade's cheek, radiating a sorrowful, helpless misery.

"Miles... I won't put you in a difficult position. I can talk to her myself. I'll do whatever it takes. I'll beg her myself if that's what she wants, as long as she drops the charges."

Massaging his temples, Miles snapped in irritation, "Jade, your brother is the one who messed up, not you. If you're that worried about him, tell your parents to hire him a lawyer."

"Miles, my parents are a mess right now. Could you please just arrange a meeting with Quinn? I'll speak to her face-to-face. I won't make things hard for you."

Miles remained entirely unresponsive, which only made Jade feel more wronged.

It was all that shameless woman's fault. If it weren't for Quinn, why would Miles be treating her so coldly?

"Miles, Wesley is still young. I'll make sure he apologizes to Quinn."

In the past, seeing her cry would have stirred a sense of pity in Miles's heart. But after everything that happened at the banquet, he felt she no longer deserved his sympathy.

His voice was flat, his tone distant. "Go home for now. The police have probably already contacted Quinn. I'll talk to her when she returns in two days."

Seeing that he had agreed, Jade wiped her tears, flashing a sweet, delicate smile. "Thank you, Miles," she said softly.

"Tristan, escort Jade home."

"Yes, boss."

Once Jade stepped out, her eyes darkened with vicious malice. That shameless Quinn had actually played the long game, quietly calling the cops and getting her brother arrested.

Thank God she hadn't gotten her own hands dirty and had let Wesley do the dirty work, or she would have been the one in handcuffs.

She had noticed Miles's coldness the moment she walked in. It was all that bitch's fault!

He had come back from the office early because he knew Quinn was home, bringing the cakes along with him.

Quinn felt a flicker of surprise. How did Ethan know her favorite flavor?

Luna voiced her thoughts for her. "You're so thoughtful, Daddy. You knew Mommy loves green mango."

A glint of emotion flashed in Ethan's eyes. "The cashier mentioned it. They said girls usually like the green mango flavor. I guess... I guessed right."

As the two little ones dug into their cakes with forks, Quinn and Ethan stepped out onto the balcony to talk.

"Thank you for taking such good care of the kids."

"And thank you for last night..."

Quinn could only imagine how attentively Ethan had looked after the children while she was away from Fairview Apartments, even secretly memorizing their favorite flavors.

If Ethan hadn't arrived in time last night, she would have been locked in that freezing restroom until morning.
