She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 429

"Sir..."

Gail and Jack exchanged anxious glances. The young madam would definitely be upset if she found out.

Miles noticed them frozen in place and his gaze darkened. "What, are my orders optional now?"

"Sir... n-no."

Jack shook his head at Gail, signaling her to hand over the shopping bag and not defy the young master's wishes.

Jade arched an eyebrow, happily accepting the bag. She pulled out the Birkin and immediately draped it over her shoulder.

Her voice was sickeningly sweet. "Miles, this bag goes perfectly with my outfit. Quinn usually carries a backpack anyway, so it's normal that this wouldn't suit her. I'll keep this one, and later I'll pick out a nice little backpack that actually fits her style."

Miles was in no mood to listen to her chatter. His tone was irritable. "I have work to handle. Go play with Leo."

"Okay, Miles. Go do your work."

...

Quinn slipped her backpack on and headed for the door. Gail tried to stop her. "Mrs. York, you just got back. Won't you stay for dinner?"

Quinn had purposely chosen this time, assuming Miles would still be at the corporate office. She wanted to avoid him entirely, but to her dismay, she had run into him anyway.

"I just came back to grab a few things. You all go ahead and eat, don't worry about me."

Jade plastered a fake smile across her face. "Quinn, you aren't leaving just because Leo and I are here, are you? How is Miles going to view me if you do that?"

"Jade, I have the million dollars your brother paid me in compensation. I'm taking my best friend out for a massive feast. Why on earth would I stay here and force myself to eat with someone who kills my appetite?"

"You—"

Jade's face turned several shades of green. Forcing down her mounting fury, she closed the distance between them.
