Sensing the lethal chill radiating from his boss, Hunter hurriedly lowered his head.
"The Chairman said... in three days, he expects to see the signed Divorce Agreement from you and Mrs. York. The lawyers will handle the rest."
Over the past few months, Hunter had already realized his boss wasn't entirely devoid of feelings for Mrs. York.
It was just that his pride and aloof nature wouldn't let him admit it, let alone compromise or back down.
To put it simply, his ego was going to be the death of him.
Hunter knew this day would come. It wasn't like he hadn't tried to warn his boss before, but the man never listened. Sigh!
"Are you done? If you're done, get out!"
Noticing Hunter shifting uncomfortably but not leaving, the dark storm brewing in Miles's eyes practically materialized into a physical threat.
Hunter pushed up his glasses, desperately avoiding his boss's terrifying, icy glare.
"The Chairman also said that once it's signed, his lawyers will handle it..."
Miles picked up the fountain pen on his desk, staring coldly at the assistant. If Hunter was even a second too slow, that pen was going straight for his face.
"I don't need you to tell me how to handle this!"
Hunter paled, feeling incredibly wronged. Who was he to tell Mr. York how to do his job?
These were all the Chairman's orders! He was just faithfully relaying the message.
He scrambled toward the door, prioritizing his life while quickly muttering the last of the Chairman's words. "With the lawyers stepping in, you won't need to go through the mandatory waiting period."
"Bang!"
The fountain pen in Miles's hand flew across the room. "Get out!"
Clutching his briefcase, Hunter fled the study in sheer panic.
The pen smacked sharply against the door before clattering onto the carpet.
Terrifying!
A cold sweat drenched Hunter's back. It was the first time he had ever seen his boss this furious. Good thing he was quick, or that pen would have hit him for sure.
Quinn's tone was icy. "You're overstepping, Miles. Who I talk to is my own business."
Miles's jaw clenched so tight it looked sharp enough to cut glass. He grabbed her arm and dragged her to the side, not wanting the kids to catch them fighting.
Quinn struggled to keep up with his long strides but couldn't break free. Furious, she snapped, "Miles, use your words! Stop dragging me around!"
Ignoring her protests, he pulled her into a secluded corner of the garden, his brows furrowing menacingly.
"Did you just completely ignore my warning?"
"I already told you, Miles. Ethan and I are just friends. Believe it or not, I don't care."
Miles was about to interrogate her further when Luna's sweet voice drifted over. "Weird Uncle, are you done with work?"
He forcibly swallowed his rage, wiping the dark scowl off his face before walking over to the little girl.
"I'm done for now, Luna. Should I play on the slide with you and Caleb?"
"Okay! Caleb and I are climbing the net!"

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....
