She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 456

After delivering that final line, he slammed the scissors onto the desk and stormed out of the room.

Jade opened her mouth to speak, but Miles's silhouette had already disappeared through the doorway.

She fiercely dug her nails into the throw pillow on the sofa, her eyes burning with sheer malice.

That shameless woman!

Why did Quinn have the power to make Miles so anxious?

She had clearly seen the panic in his eyes the moment he realized Quinn was watching them, followed by an unmistakable flicker of dread.

What was he so afraid of? Was he really that terrified of Quinn seeing them? Was he that desperate to avoid her misunderstanding?

...

Miles hurried downstairs to search for Quinn, but the living room was completely empty.

Assuming she had retreated to her bedroom, he knocked heavily on the door, but met with dead silence.

"Mr. York, Ms. Avery isn't in her room."

Miles strode out the front doors, scanning the grounds. "Where did she go?"

A maid working outside pointed toward a secluded corner of the garden. "Ms. Avery headed that way, sir."

Quinn wasn't affected by what she had seen. In the past, it would have broken her heart; she would have felt a suffocating wave of despair.

But now, no matter how intimate Miles and Jade acted, it no longer had any power over her.

She had found a quiet spot, pulling out her phone to video call the kids.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed the exact person she didn't want to see approaching. With a silent sigh, she put her phone away.

Miles's eyes were clouded with complex emotions, his voice tight and heavy. "Quinn, we need to talk."

Quinn assumed he was referring to whatever he had originally summoned her to the study for. She turned to face him. "Talk about what?"

Miles's words caught in his throat. He had no idea how to explain the compromising scene she had just witnessed.
