She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 568

Quinn couldn't help but smile, gently tapping her daughter's little nose:

"Exactly. That's pretty much what it means. It's just that when adults do a property transfer, there's a bunch of official paperwork. It's not quite as easy as handing over a toy."

...

Miles maintained his usual routine, bouncing between the office, networking events, and Regency Bay. Over the weekend, he returned to the family estate. He had expected his grandmother to chew him out after finding out he signed the Divorce Agreement with Quinn.

To his surprise, Evelyn didn't bring it up at all, and the family ate their meal in total peace.

After dinner, his mother pulled him out to the garden. "You two really signed everything, right?"

Miles lowered his eyes. "Dominic Grant is already processing it."

"How much money did you give her?"

Judith had called the lawyer to ask, but Dominic had stammered and danced around the subject, refusing to give her a straight answer, so she had to corner her son.

"Mom, it's not that much."

Seeing him refuse to give a specific number, Judith grew irritated. "Ten million?"

When he still stayed quiet, she lowered her voice and pressed, "Twenty million?"

Miles didn't want to deal with his mother's interrogation. His tone grew impatient: "Mom, why are you so obsessed with this?"

Feeling she had guessed right, Judith's voice instantly spiked in volume. "Twenty million? You actually gave that woman twenty million?!"

"Mom, just stay out of it!"

Judith was absolutely furious. What did he mean, stay out of it? Why did he have to give her so much extra money?!

When they ended it early, her mother-in-law had preached about the York family honoring the spirit of the contract. Now that they honored it, why the massive bonus?!

"Wasn't the agreement five million?

Over the years, how much have you spent on her mother's medical bills? How many luxury gifts has your grandmother sent her?

And that brother of hers, constantly hitting you up for cash! How much money have you completely wasted on her over the years?"

Once your mother sets things up, make sure you clear your schedule to go on those blind dates."

Hearing this, the irritation in Miles's chest flared higher, and he looked even more exhausted.

"Dad, the divorce papers aren't even finalized. We can talk about this later."

Richard assumed his son was just delaying out of concern for the York family's reputation.

"Alright. I'm just giving you a heads-up. Your mother will handle the arrangements. Letting you know when she's picked out someone suitable works too."

Miles's chest tightened. He was beyond irritated now—he felt like he couldn't even breathe.

His focus was absolutely nowhere near romance. Being shackled to Quinn for four years had completely drained him.

Right now, he just wanted some peace and quiet.

"We just reached a preliminary agreement on a project with the Aurelia Municipal Government. I'm going to be extremely busy at work from now on. I simply don't have the time."

"If you're too busy, hire a few more executive assistants. You don't need to micromanage everything yourself. The York Group is massive now; the people working under you aren't just there for decoration."
