"No!"
Quinn pushed the door open, her face flushed with anger.
"Ever heard of knocking, Quinn?"
Miles glared at her in annoyance. He had been so close. He was seconds away from convincing the kids to secretly call him Daddy, and this woman had ruined everything.
"The door was already open."
"Miles, are you seriously trying to trick these kids behind my back? They have their own parents. Why on earth would they call you Daddy?"
"Quinn..."
Miles was about to explode, but remembering the kids were right there, he quickly shifted his tone.
"It's just... as a godfather. What's wrong with them having another father figure to love them? It's not like I'm trying to steal them from their real dad."
Quinn was unyielding. "No means no. I don't care what you say."
"It's getting late. I need to put them to bed. Please leave."
Seeing her kicking him out, his expression darkened completely.
"Goodnight, Weird Uncle!"
Luna and Caleb waved at him, instantly softening his handsome features. "Goodnight."
Once out of the room, frustration gnawed at his chest. 'Uncle' just didn't sound nearly as good as 'Daddy'.
If that woman had just shown up a minute later, he didn't know about Caleb, but Luna definitely would have called him Daddy in her sweet little voice.
He didn't understand why he was so desperate to have them call him that. A voice deep in his heart kept telling him that this was how it was meant to be.
Maybe it was because they called Quinn their godmother. In his mind, that naturally made him their godfather.
...
The night passed peacefully, and morning light eventually broke over the horizon.
Hunter arrived with some documents. Miles was having breakfast with the kids, and Quinn was sitting beside them.
"Good morning, Mrs. York. Mr. York."
Director Vance didn't push the subject.
Taking the opportunity, Quinn mentioned she wanted to treat him and Ethan to a nice dinner sometime soon to thank him for his guidance and trust in her work.
"Godmother, I'm going to take Luna to play on the slide outside for a bit," Caleb announced.
"I'll help her practice her writing later."
"Alright."
Miles and Hunter were in the study, managing work and holding remote meetings.
Once the meetings concluded, Hunter remained standing there, showing no signs of leaving.
Miles looked up. "Is there something else?"
Hunter pulled the Divorce Agreement—drafted by the Chairman's lawyers—out of his briefcase and handed it over.
"Mr. York, the Chairman asked me to pass this along. He wants you to review it, and if there are no issues, I'm to give it to Mrs. York to sign."
Miles's eyes locked onto the words "Divorce Agreement". His gaze instantly turned as dark and freezing as a snowstorm over a distant mountain, the air pressure in the room dropping drastically.

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....
