Macy grabbed her cousin's arm and dragged her out, leaving Miles and Jade alone in the room.
Sienna found the whole setup highly inappropriate. Her cousin was a married man. Why was Macy playing matchmaker and pushing him toward another woman?
Once they were out in the hall, she shot Macy an incredulous look. "Macy, Miles has a wife. How could you just push him toward Jade like that?"
Macy’s expression turned icy. "What wife? It's just a contract marriage. Who the hell does Quinn Avery think she is?"
"Macy, no matter what it is, they are still legally married. You're encouraging him to cheat emotionally. It's wrong!"
"Sienna, I don't need you telling me what to do. Jade and my brother grew up together. If it weren't for Quinn, they would have been married by now. Ugh!"
Judith finished speaking with the doctor and noticed the two girls bickering.
She hurried over. "Macy, Sienna, what are you arguing about? Let's go. Don't disturb Jade."
...
Inside the room, Miles softened his footsteps, his usual cold demeanor melting away.
"Jade, don't worry about the scars. I'll get you the absolute best specialists in the field."
Hearing the warmth and concern in his voice, Jade decided that even if a faint scar remained on her back, it was completely worth it.
She masked the calculated gleam in her eyes and tried to sit up, wincing as if in pain.
Miles stepped forward immediately, propping a pillow behind her side.
"Tell me when you want to roll over. Staying in one position for too long will hurt."
"Thank you, Miles. I can bear it."
Jade grabbed his sleeve, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears, looking utterly wronged.
She looked like a woman who would gladly suffer any catastrophe for him and his family.
"I admit, I was a little jealous of Quinn. I was jealous that she got to stay by your side these past four years, jealous that she's the one who officially gets to stand next to you."
"But... that was only a tiny bit of jealousy, because I care about you so much..."
Miles pinched the bridge of his nose, cutting her off. His voice sounded utterly exhausted.
"Jade, just rest. I'm going to find the doctor."
"Miles..."
"Jade, focus on recovering. Don't think about anything else."
The moment Miles walked out, the pathetic, helpless facade vanished from Jade's face.
While he hadn't bent to her every whim like he used to, this incident guaranteed he would never ice her out again.

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....
