In the car, Quinn and Miles sat on opposite ends of the backseat, leaving enough space for two people between them. Neither said a word.
Midway through the ride, Yara called. Quinn answered softly, but Miles could still hear everything.
She confirmed the ordeal was over and the million-dollar settlement was secured.
Yara grumbled that Wesley got off too easy, throwing in a few colorful curses.
She then asked when Quinn was coming home, mentioning that Stacy Jarvis had already finished making dinner.
Quinn explained that Grandma Evelyn had invited her out, so she wouldn't be home for dinner and told them to eat without her.
Yara immediately realized she was with Miles and didn't pry any further.
Miles also received a call. It was from Macy York, reminding him that the concert was the day after tomorrow and not to forget it.
She also added that Jade would be there. Miles frowned, about to say something, but his sister had already hung up.
The Sovereign Table was Fairmont's most renowned private dining establishment, carrying on the tradition of imperial banquets using only the finest, freshest ingredients.
They rejected artificial flavorings, relying entirely on the natural essence of the ingredients to create dishes that were both exquisite and nourishing.
The older generation of Fairmont's elite circle loved dining here.
The manager immediately recognized Miles's Bentley and rushed forward to greet them warmly. "Evelyn York is already waiting upstairs."
Miles and Quinn navigated the tranquil courtyard, winding past pavilions until they reached a private suite on the second floor. Soft gossamer curtains and celadon ornaments created a beautifully elegant atmosphere.
Ingrid was standing by Evelyn's side, chuckling as she spoke. "Madam, Jack and Gail said that even though the young master and young madam bicker, he still went out of his way to pick out..."
"Grandma Evelyn."
Miles seemed to know exactly what Ingrid was about to say and quickly stepped in to cut her off.
Thinking back on his past behavior, Miles looked slightly awkward. "Grandma, there's nothing urgent today."
Evelyn replied, "You said it yourself. Don't backtrack later and claim you have a sudden emergency, ditching Quinn and me."
"I won't, Grandma. I remember this is your favorite braised conch with lotus seeds. Have some."
Miles used the serving utensils to place her favorite dish on her plate, then, figuring Quinn should try something as well, he placed a piece of fresh abalone in her bowl.
Seeing the fresh abalone in her bowl, Quinn coolly shifted her gaze and didn't touch her fork.
Witnessing her grandson's gesture, Evelyn exchanged a knowing smile with Ingrid.
It seemed Jack and Gail were right. Miles really was starting to care for Quinn.
Suddenly, a jarring ringtone broke the serenity of the private suite, freezing the smile on Evelyn's face.

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....
