She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 434

Luna sprinted over as fast as her little legs could carry her, terrified that her brother's mask had been removed and the Weird Uncle had seen him.

She pushed her way through the cluster of kids and stopped right in front of Caleb. "Caleb, did your mask come off?"

"It was just an accident, Luna. I put it right back on."

"Thank goodness."

Fortunately, the Weird Uncle hadn't come over to the play area, otherwise, he definitely would have seen him.

Miles chatted with the Forbes billionaires for a short while longer before excusing himself to find Quinn.

Perhaps he was uneasy, or perhaps his heart was simply lingering on Luna.

He was afraid Quinn would just pack up the two toddlers and leave. It was rare enough to see them, and he didn't want to part ways so soon.

A young boy spotted him and blinked his bright eyes. His mother looked down and asked, "What is it?"

"Mommy, that handsome uncle looks just like the little boy from earlier."

His mother chuckled and ruffled his hair. "You probably just saw things wrong, honey. Children's features haven't fully developed yet. How could a little boy look exactly like a grown man?"

The boy was adamant that he wasn't mistaken. His voice was soft and sweet.

"Mommy, I didn't see it wrong! That little boy was so handsome. Just like this uncle—super handsome and regal. It was like looking at a miniature version of him."

Miles was no stranger to compliments regarding his striking looks and aristocratic aura. He was entirely used to it and usually brushed such comments off. But hearing the boy say "miniature version of him"...

He stopped dead in his tracks. He turned around and walked up to the boy holding his mother's hand, his voice dropping into a gentle register.

"Hey there. Did you just say there's a little boy here who looks like a miniature version of me?"

The woman knew her child's comments might have come off as a bit impolite and offered an apologetic smile. "Sir, I'm so sorry, my son was probably just imagining things. He's always comparing real people to Prince Florian from his cartoons. Please don't take it to heart, he didn't mean anything by it."

Seeing him approach, Luna's tiny fingers gripped her brother's hand tightly. Her long eyelashes fluttered rapidly in panic, terrified he had figured something out.

Her voice came out in a soft, airy whisper. "Hello, Weird Uncle!"

Miles didn't notice her nervous tick. He crouched down and spoke with profound gentleness.

"Luna, I just heard another boy say there's a kid around here who looks exactly like me. Have you seen him?"

Luna's face went a shade paler. She shook her head out of pure reflex, a trace of panic bleeding into her voice. "N-No. Weird Uncle, are you sure you didn't just hear wrong?"

"There's no one here who looks like you, Weird Uncle."

Miles seemed to pick up on Luna's slight apprehension. His voice remained gentle, but his dark eyes swept critically over the two siblings.

"Really? But that little boy sounded so certain."
