She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 414

Words felt too shallow to express her gratitude. She would engrave his kindness in her heart. If Ethan ever needed anything, she wouldn't hesitate to help.

Ethan's demeanor was as gentle as jade. "I'm just glad you're okay, Quinn."

"Do you know who locked you in the restroom?"

"I called the police," Quinn replied. "I'm sure they'll catch the guy soon."

"I'll arrange a lawyer to help you track the case," Ethan offered. "We won't let the person who hurt you escape justice easily."

"Thank you."

The two kids sat inside, happily munching on their crepes. A sweet, creamy aroma filled the apartment as little smudges of whipped cream dotted their faces.

Ethan's features softened, a faint, tender smile playing on his lips. He pulled a tissue from the box and gently wiped Caleb's mouth.

Quinn mirrored the action, tenderly cleaning the cream from the corner of Luna's lips. "Slow down, sweetie, you've got it all over your face."

Luna's voice was sugary sweet. "Mommy, you eat too."

"Mommy is eating."

Quinn scooped a bite of the green mango crepe and put it in her mouth, her eyes curving into a smile. "It's sweet and tangy. Absolutely delicious."

The two little ones looked up at her, their bright eyes crinkling into happy little crescents.

"Daddy, you eat some too."

Quinn split the green mango crepe in half and offered him a clean fork. "Try it. It's really good."

Ethan took the plate and tasted the exact same cake, the exact same flavor. Sweet and tangy.

He remembered a night from many years ago—a night she had long forgotten.

Back then, they had shared a green mango cake, too.

Martha Avery had been working at a bakery. At the end of the shift, the manager told the staff they could take home the unsold cakes before they expired.

Martha gave Quinn a slice. Seeing him staring at her as he walked by, Quinn had smiled and split her green mango cake with him.

The sweet scent of mangoes and the cool night breeze had swirled around them.

Quinn spent the next two days at Fairview Apartments. After finishing her remote work, she played with the kids. The beautiful moments were fleeting, but they felt so fulfilling and joyful.

Nothing brought her more happiness and peace than being with them.

When Miles left the office, Hunter assumed the boss was heading back to Regency Bay. Instead, Miles ordered him to drive to Fairview Apartments.

"Mr. York, didn't you say you'd wait two days for Mrs. York to return before talking to her?" Hunter asked.

Miles had planned to wait. But Jade had called him multiple times today in a panic, crying that Quinn had hired a lawyer and was dead set on suing Wesley.

He had no choice but to come to Fairview Apartments himself and ask her to meet him at the park downstairs.

He was doing this for her own good. Arthur Winter wasn't going to sit back and watch his son go to prison.

Arthur could sabotage Yara's career once, and he could easily do it again.

He figured Quinn was being naive, and it was his duty to come and warn her.

He needed to tell her not to be so stubborn. Since Arthur was willing to pay her off, she should take the money and walk away. Fighting a losing battle wouldn't do her any good.
