Miles's phone suddenly rang, and Luna immediately asked him to put her down.
The moment her feet hit the ground, Luna spotted her mother and bolted over on her little legs.
Her sweet voice called out, "Godmother!"
As soon as Luna and Caleb saw their Mommy, they completely abandoned playing with Miles.
Caleb sprinted after his sister, flawlessly maintaining the act. "Godmother..."
Miles was left standing there with empty arms, suddenly possessing zero desire to answer his ringing phone.
The second the two toddlers saw Quinn, they tossed him to the back of their minds. The sheer rejection left a painfully sour taste in his mouth.
He knew logically that they were much closer to Quinn, but his heart violently rebelled against the reality of it.
It felt as though he, just like Quinn, was supposed to be an inseparable piece of their world.
It was a bizarre, irrational thought, and he had no idea why such a strange fantasy had suddenly taken root in his mind.
That innate, magnetic pull he felt toward these two children wrapped around his heart once again...
Quinn pulled out a tissue and gently dabbed the sweat from the kids' foreheads.
"Luna, are you tired from playing? Let's take a little break."
"Godmother, earlier..."
Luna was about to confess that Caleb's mask had accidentally fallen off, but noticing the Weird Uncle approaching, she clamped her mouth shut.
Miles spoke up. "Quinn, the kids were having a great time. They still want to play."
Luna's adorable voice drifted over. "Weird Uncle, I want to go get some juice and pastries with Godmother now. I'm done playing! Thank you for today!"
Hearing this, Miles's dark eyes dimmed noticeably, a wave of disappointment quietly settling over his features.
Sure enough, the moment Luna saw Quinn, she didn't want him anymore.
But he still couldn't stomach parting ways with them so soon. Lowering his usual arrogance, he extended a gentle invitation.
In fact, he found the idea of Caleb calling Quinn his godmother incredibly pleasing. He wholeheartedly welcomed it.
"I'm thirsty too. I'll come with you."
They were at Mrs. Pierce's estate, so Quinn couldn't exactly forbid Miles from following them. Without a word, she led the two toddlers back inside through the glass doors.
They headed to the buffet area, where Quinn grabbed two glasses of orange juice, a few French pastries, and some other delicate sweets for the kids.
After washing their hands, the two children sat down to eat.
Miles grabbed a drink for himself and boldly took a seat right at their table.
A few people standing nearby assumed they were a family of four and even tossed over a few compliments.
Quinn's face flushed with extreme awkwardness. She fully expected Miles to scowl and immediately correct the strangers, telling them not to misunderstand.
Instead, the man not only refused to correct them, but he secretly looked like he was thoroughly enjoying the assumption.

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....
