She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 557

Quinn went back downstairs, phone in hand, and found a quiet corner in the garden to video call Yara.

She recounted her conversation with Miles in the study, and Yara's first reaction mirrored her own perfectly.

"Is that scumbag playing games?"

"Your divorce is going to ruin his partnership with Lyonne Global?"

Yara suddenly had a wild thought—what if Miles actually cared about Quinn and didn't want to divorce her?

But the moment the idea formed, she immediately squashed it, remembering everything he had ever done.

The jerk had only ever cared about his childhood sweetheart, Jade. If he liked Quinn, he wouldn't constantly take Jade's side, force Quinn to swallow her pride, and subject her to endless humiliation.

"He and Hunter made it sound so completely airtight that I couldn't find a single flaw in their logic. I was genuinely terrified of messing up the York Corporation and having him come after me for damages," Quinn confessed.

Her heart ached. She wanted so desperately to be free of this relationship, yet now she was forced into this agonizing delay.

It felt like a massive boulder was pressing down on her chest, as if thorny vines were wrapping around her ankles, keeping her from taking the kids and leaving Fairmont.

Sensing her suffocating frustration, Yara softly asked, "Quinn, when do the Pierces leave the country?"

"Miles said maybe ten days, maybe twenty."

Yara tried to comfort her. "At least it's only ten or twenty days. Don't be too upset, Quinn. The exact second they leave, you can divorce him."

"Oh, wait!" Quinn suddenly realized. "I have Mrs. Pierce's contact info. I'm going to call her right now and ask."

"Good idea."

After ending the video call with Yara, Ethan walked over with Luna and Caleb.

"Auntie Yara, my sister and I are going to wash our hands."

Ethan had overheard their conversation. He adjusted his glasses, concealing the dark glint in his eyes.

Miles had actually used an excuse like that to stall the divorce?

How utterly despicable.

The partnership with Lyonne Global was already stabilizing. All Miles had to do was keep his marital status quiet.
