The very boy he had been carrying at the women's boutique that day was playfully perched on his shoulders.
Miles looked up, his striking gaze brimming with fatherly affection.
Quinn stiffened, the blood draining from her face as a wave of sorrow washed over her, all while desperately hoping Miles wouldn't spot her and Luna.
The pain stemmed from the cold, dismissive words she had overheard outside his study back then.
He reserved his precious, doting love solely for the child he shared with Jade.
Luna immediately recognized him. "It's that grumpy man..."
Quinn quickly pressed a finger to her lips, signaling Luna to stay quiet.
Just as she turned to lead Luna away in the opposite direction, Jade stepped out of the nearby restroom.
"Quinn?"
Miles turned around, genuine surprise flashing across his face when he saw her standing there.
His deep, intense gaze immediately shifted to the little girl beside her, and his expression softened instinctively.
He even took the initiative to greet the toddler. "Well, if it isn't my little friend. We meet again."
Seeing him address her directly, Luna replied with polite manners, "Hello, mister."
Jade looked mildly shocked. "Miles, you know this little girl?"
"Yeah, we met once before."
Jade's cold gaze darted back and forth between Quinn and Luna, the gears turning in her head as she tried to make a connection.
"Quinn, aren't you going to introduce us? Who is this little girl to you?"
Quinn shot her a flat look. "Jade, we aren't exactly close. I don't owe you an explanation for anything."
Miles furrowed his brows. "Quinn, why do you always have to be so rude?"
Seeing this man scold her mother, Luna frowned, her large, dark eyes glaring up at him.
"Mr. Grump, why are you always yelling at people?"
Miles's handsome face instantly stiffened, and he blurted out,
Quinn carried Luna over to rendezvous with her son and Yara, her voice rushed with anxiety.
"Yara, Miles and Jade are here too. We need to leave immediately."
Yara gasped in shock. "What? That cheating bastard is here?"
"Yes. We'll talk on the way. He absolutely cannot see Caleb."
Little did she know, her son had already crossed paths with Miles.
The father and son had met without ever recognizing each other.
The two toddlers were exhausted from playing and ready to head home, oblivious to the hushed conversation between their mother and Yara.
That evening, Quinn prepared dinner for the twins and sat with them while they ate.
After getting them washed up, she took a cab back to Regency Bay.
She hadn't expected Miles to be home so early. He was dressed in dark casual wear that accentuated his tall, lean physique.
He leaned back lazily against the living room sofa, his posture relaxed but commanding as he scrolled through the news on his tablet.

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....
