She Walked Away With His Twins, While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 58

"Ma'am, you are completely out of line. How can you speak to Quinn that way?"

"If she says it's just work, then it really is just work. The last time she accompanied a client, he was so thankful that he took her straight to Valérie Boutique to buy her expensive designer dresses as a reward."

"Quinn and your husband really... truly... only have a working relationship. Please don't overthink this, and don't accuse her without any proof."

As she spoke, her eyes darted nervously, purposefully layering her words with suspicious hesitation.

It was a masterful implication, leaving the surrounding crowd's imagination to run wild.

The moment those words dropped, Mrs. Thorne's face, which had just begun to calm down, turned utterly venomous.

All her suppressed paranoia and insecurity flared up with a vengeance. She locked her eyes onto Quinn.

Her gaze was twisted with jealousy and rage. "You claim it's just work? If I hadn't shown up today, were you planning on manipulating my husband into buying you jewelry and designer clothes before dragging him to a hotel room?"

Quinn didn't bother defending herself, nor did she attempt to explain anything to Mrs. Thorne.

She knew trying to untangle the mess would only make her look guiltier. It was better to flip the narrative entirely.

*Smack!*

She delivered a vicious, ringing slap right across Jade's fake, hypocritical face. "Did you deliberately say those misleading things just to provoke her?"

*Smack!*

One wasn't enough. She slapped her again. "Did you really just 'run into me' here, or did you know I was here and orchestrate this whole thing with Mrs. Thorne beforehand?"

Quinn had picked up on a subtle clue when Mr. Thorne had spoken earlier.

Jade's sudden appearance confirmed her exact suspicion.

She was absolutely certain this malicious woman had pulled some dirty trick behind the scenes to aim Mrs. Thorne like a weapon at her.
