She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 556
"At this juncture, our partners are watching us like hawks. You've met Mr. and Mrs. Pierce; what they value most is the York Corporation's integrity. Mr. York's marital status and personal character are key metrics for their credit evaluation.
"In other words, if the CEO's marital status suddenly changes right now, their first reaction will be to question the stability and integrity of our entire management team.
"Mr. Pierce is incredibly cautious. He might not terminate the partnership outright, but there is a very high probability he'd suspend the project, initiate a re-evaluation, or even alter the terms.
"The fallout from that isn't something we could recover from overnight."
Hunter added, "Mrs. York, Mr. York is just prioritizing the company's strategic growth. Please try to understand."
Quinn's chest heaved, her eyes swirling with anger as she listened to Hunter's explanation.
This master-and-servant duo were utterly airtight. She couldn't poke a single hole in their logic.
But she also couldn't fathom any other reason why Miles would intentionally delay the divorce. After all, this man had always despised her, looked down on her, and practically loathed her. He had always been eager to sever ties.
The man lifted his gaze, his dark, piercing eyes settling on her. "Satisfied?"
Quinn desperately wanted out of this relationship. She fired back indignantly, "Miles, I don't care if the York Corporation partners with Lyonne Global or not. It has absolutely nothing to do with me. I just want a divorce right now!"
Scoffing lightly, it was as if he had anticipated her exact response.
He pulled a document from a drawer, unhurriedly opened it, and pressed his finger against a specific page before sliding it toward her.
"Quinn, Clause Seven of this agreement. Read it carefully. Black and white."
"Should either party cause the other to suffer financial losses due to the dissolution of this marriage, the responsible party must compensate the aggrieved party for all incurred losses. This includes sunken costs, projected profits, and any resulting loss of commercial reputation."
He looked up at her, his voice devoid of a single ripple of emotion, tapping his finger against the text twice.
"The moment Mr. and Mrs. Pierce leave the country, we finalize the divorce."
"Fine."
Seeing him pinch the bridge of his nose in irritation, Quinn realized she had overthought things. He probably wanted out of this fake marriage even more than she did.
Without another word, she turned, opened the study door, and left.
Miles leaned back in his chair, exhaling a heavy, murky breath.
Divorcing her was inevitable. He just... wasn't used to a life without her yet.
So, he would use this extra time to slowly detach himself. To adapt. To get used to a life where she no longer existed!

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....
