She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 438

However, Darcy didn't pry any further.

Luna politely greeted the couple as well. Mr. and Mrs. Pierce then presented the two toddlers with gifts—beautifully illustrated children's art books.

Darcy took the gifts from his mother and handed them over sincerely. "Caleb, Luna, these are for you. I hope you like them, and please come over to play anytime!"

Luna accepted the book, her sweet voice brimming with politeness. "Thank you, Darcy."

Mr. and Mrs. Pierce had Darcy later in life, and they completely doted on him.

They genuinely enjoyed socializing with Miles and his 'wife,' and were thrilled to see Darcy getting along so well with Quinn's kids.

"Quinn, thank you so much for the embroidery demonstration today. It was absolutely breathtaking. It was a true honor to witness your artisanship firsthand, and I will cherish the piece forever."

Quinn offered a modest, elegant smile, her demeanor perfectly balanced. "Thank you for your kind words. It's just a simple craft; I'm just glad you like it."

Mrs. Pierce deeply admired people who were brilliant, capable, yet utterly humble. She turned to Miles.

"Cedric, I absolutely adore your wife. I do hope you'll bring her and the children over to visit us more often."

Miles offered a polite, gentlemanly nod. "Thank you for your warm hospitality. When we have the time, I will certainly bring them by."

Darcy waved goodbye to Caleb and Luna before following his parents away.

Luna hadn't understood the English conversation, but Caleb caught every word.

Mommy and the Weird Uncle were married?

His dark eyes locked intensely onto the man sitting across from him. The seed of suspicion that had been planted earlier was now rapidly blossoming into absolute certainty.

After hearing that exchange, he no longer harbored a single doubt. The biological father of him and his sister could be no one else but this Weird Uncle.

But why... why was Mommy hiding it? Why didn't she want the Weird Uncle to know they were his kids?

Why did she insist on having them call Uncle Ethan 'Daddy' instead?

Caleb had always been vastly more mature than other kids his age. He figured his mother must have a very painful reason.

Miles glanced at the screen. A wave of irritation washed over him, and having zero desire to answer, he immediately hit decline.

However, mere seconds after he hung up, his mother's number flashed onto the screen.

He picked up the phone. The moment the call connected, Judith's panicked voice screamed through the receiver. "Miles! It's a disaster, you have to get here... get here now!"

Miles frowned deeply. "Mom, what's wrong? Why are you panicking?"

"Your sister... she was crushed by a falling billboard—no, wait, I mean—"

Miles's voice instantly spiked with sheer terror. "What? Macy is hurt?!"

Judith hurriedly corrected herself. "No... no, Macy is fine! It's Jade! She pushed your sister out of the way of a falling billboard and took the hit herself! Her back is severely injured!"

"She's in the emergency room getting stitches right now! Jade is in agonizing pain, screaming your name over and over, but you weren't answering your phone!"

"Which hospital? I'm on my way."
