She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 422

Seeing the caller ID, Miles immediately declined the call.

"Grandma, I remember you love the duck soup here."

He ladled a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her.

Ingrid quickly took over. "Young Master, let me handle this. You just focus on eating."

Not long after Miles dismissed the call, his phone rang again.

"Can't even enjoy a meal in peace."

Catching sight of the name 'Jade' flashing on the screen, Evelyn set her silverware down, her face sinking with displeasure.

Miles kept his voice gentle. "Grandma, you two eat first. I'll just step out to take this and come right back."

Seeing the relentless calls, his brows knitted together. He grabbed his phone and stepped outside.

As soon as he answered, Jade's sweet, delicate voice drifted through. "Miles, why aren't you answering?"

Miles's tone was icy. "What is it?"

Sensing his persistent coldness, Jade's heart seized. "It's Leo... He wants to talk to you. He says he hasn't seen his daddy in days."

Miles glanced back toward the suite, a flash of impatience crossing his face. "I'm busy right now. We'll talk another day."

"Miles, just say a few words to him, otherwise he won't stop crying."

Jade secretly pinched Leo. The boy instantly burst into loud sobs, a sound so pathetic Miles couldn't bear to refuse.

"Put Leo on. I'll talk to him."

"Thank you, Miles."

Leo was wailing uncontrollably. "Daddy, waaah... when are you coming to see me?"

Miles intentionally softened his voice. "Daddy Miles is a bit busy these days. I'll come see you when I have some free time."

Quinn was chatting with Evelyn. A hearty laugh escaped the older woman's lips, accompanied by Ingrid's cheerful chuckles.

Seeing this warm, radiant scene, the irritation simmering in Miles's chest quietly dissipated.

As he walked back in, Evelyn shot him a stern glare. "Finished with your call?"

"Yes, Grandma. I'm done."

Evelyn huffed coldly. "Hmph, can't even get through a meal in peace."

She turned and gently patted Quinn's hand, her demeanor shifting back to warm and motherly. "Quinn is much better. She actually has the patience to keep an old woman like me company."

"Unlike some people who are always distracted, promising to eat with me, only to run off and take phone calls."

Quinn felt a heavy gaze land on her. Looking up, she met Miles's dark eyes. She quickly lowered her lids, her expression impassive, shutting out his intense stare.

Finally, Evelyn smiled warmly, patting Quinn's hand again. "Quinn, you absolutely must bring those two sweethearts next time. This old lady misses them terribly."
