Who exactly was this man that could make her look so incredibly soft, causing her to retract all her usual defensive thorns?
A client touring the convention center recognized him and stepped up to say hello.
That brief interruption cost Miles crucial seconds. By the time he reached the East Gate, Quinn was nowhere to be found.
He scanned the area, assuming they might have gone to a nearby restaurant, but realized there weren't any dining spots close by.
"Tristan!"
Tristan, unaware that his boss and the Mrs. York had just gotten into an argument, hurried out of the restroom.
"Boss..."
"Find out where Quinn went."
"Yes, Boss."
Hunter, having just dealt with their business partners, rushed over to the East Gate. "Mr. York, I've formally declined the clients' invitation. Will you be having lunch with the Mrs. York?"
Miles shot him a lethally dark glare, making Hunter physically flinch.
Only then did Hunter realize Quinn was nowhere to be seen. He shrank his neck down.
Did the Mrs. York just ditch the boss and leave on her own?
No wonder Mr. York looked so furious.
Quinn was already sitting in Ethan's car. "Ethan, isn't ditching your clients like this going to affect your work?"
She assumed Ethan was just a standard corporate manager who occasionally had to entertain clients.
She had no idea he was actually the heir to the Leigh family empire, or that he was Miles's cousin.
Ethan smiled faintly. "No."
In his world, nothing mattered more than having lunch with her.
Quinn scrolled through her phone. "Ethan, this restaurant has great reviews. Should we go here?"
"Whatever you want."
...
Miles sat in his car, his expression darker than pitch.
Hunter didn't even dare get into the vehicle, terrified that breathing too loudly would earn him a brutal screaming at.

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....
Can you make Ethan be the endgame? That Miles is a total jerk....
