Since the others were speaking English, Luna couldn't quite follow. She looked at her brother. "Caleb, what are those people saying?"
Caleb understood perfectly. He leaned close to his sister's ear and whispered, "They're saying we look like a family of four."
"They said we are very handsome and adorable."
"They also said Godmother and the Weird Uncle are so good-looking that it makes sense they'd have such beautiful kids."
Luna pouted and shot Miles a disapproving look. "Weird Uncle, those people are misunderstanding. Why aren't you going over there to correct them?"
Miles rubbed his nose. "Luna, people are going to talk no matter what. Let them say what they want."
Luna was not satisfied with this. "Weird Uncle, that's not right! I have a Mommy and a Daddy! My brother and I aren't your kids. It's bad to let people get the wrong idea."
A sharp pang of grief hit Miles. It felt as if a blade had been twisted into his chest, making it hard to breathe...
"Luna..."
Luna was already focused on her egg tart and didn't spare him another glance.
"Godmother, I want to call Daddy soon."
"I haven't seen Daddy all day, and I miss him so much."
Caleb seemed to notice that the uncle sitting across from them was turning visibly paler. For some inexplicable reason, his own chest felt a tiny, agonizing prick of sympathetic sorrow.
It was a bizarre sensation. He picked up a piece of fruit with his fork and held it out. "Luna, try this. It's really good."
Luna smiled sweetly. "You eat some too, Caleb!"
"Godmother, you eat some too."
She addressed everyone except Miles, treating him like he was entirely invisible.
Miles fought down the suffocating misery in his chest, forcing a strained rasp from his throat. "Quinn, I'll drive you all back later."
"No need. We'll—"
Miles cut off her rejection before she could even finish her sentence.
Mr. and Mrs. Pierce walked over to their table. "Quinn, we had the kitchen prepare some Eastern dishes specifically for you over there."
Quinn smiled gracefully, displaying perfect etiquette. "Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness, Mrs. Pierce."
Mrs. Pierce looked down at the two children sitting beside Quinn and smiled warmly. "It was the least I could do. My son really adored the two children you brought today. He was hoping to invite them over for a playdate."
Caleb remembered the Pierce couple's little boy, Darcy, very well, and replied flawlessly in English. "Hello, Mrs. Pierce. I was very happy to meet Darcy too."
Darcy was the Pierces' youngest child, a blonde, blue-eyed boy about two years older than Caleb.
He smiled brightly. "Caleb, it was really nice meeting you too!"
Darcy glanced at Miles, a flicker of confusion crossing his eyes. Was this Caleb's Daddy?
They looked exactly alike.
He had seen Caleb's face beneath the mask earlier, so the moment he laid eyes on Miles, he immediately concluded that this man had to be Caleb's father.

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....
