"Ms. Avery, weren't you hooked up to an IV at the hospital? How did you..."
Quinn was deeply confused, but her mother's well-being took immediate priority.
Seeing her mother was sleeping peacefully, she whispered to Gail that they would talk later.
She sprinted to the doctor's office. The physician assured her that her mother's checkup went perfectly; after a few more months of recovery, she would be completely self-sufficient.
Overwhelming relief flooded Quinn's system. Hot tears pricked her eyes as a bright, fierce hope for the future reignited in her chest.
Thank God!
Returning to the ward, she gently ushered Gail out into the hallway.
"Ms. Avery, Jack sent me over here to look after your mother."
Quinn blinked, stunned. Did Miles actually care enough about her accident to orchestrate this behind the scenes?
How else would Gail have known she was admitted to the ER?
Before she could untangle that thought, her phone chimed sharply with a new message notification.
She opened it, only to be hit with a barrage of intimate, disgustingly romantic photos of Miles and Jade under the cherry blossoms.
Macy had added a venomous caption: *Quinn, no matter what pathetic stunts you pull for attention, my brother is in love with Jade. Stop obsessing over what isn't yours.*
*If you want to see how much he pampers her, check my social media.*
Macy had deliberately sent the photos via direct message just to ensure Quinn wouldn't miss the show.
Seeing Quinn's already pale face drain of all remaining color, Gail asked anxiously.
"Ms. Avery, what's wrong?"
"It's... it's nothing. Thank you, Gail."
Needing a moment to breathe, Quinn stopped by a local deli near the nursing home and bought a bowl of soup.
Cody knew damn well that Miles was secretly married, yet he still posted that garbage for everyone to see.
His malicious intent was impossible to ignore.
She only had Cody on social media because he used to crash at the York estate and forcefully added her just so he could text her to run his errands.
The same went for Macy; her sister-in-law only kept her contact to bark orders at her from afar.
Now, any lingering delusion she harbored about him was brutally shattered.
Miles hadn't sent Gail out of compassion. He only did it to ensure her mother didn't die and complicate their impending divorce timeline.
Quinn locked her phone. The remaining love she held for the man was bleeding out, drop by agonizing drop.
After staring at those photos, her heart was finally, permanently detached.

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....
