She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 59

"Apologize! This is the third time you've laid hands on Jade. If you don't apologize today, I will not let this go."

His fury was far more terrifying than the last time, radiating an icy hostility that made everyone in the lobby shiver.

Assistant Reed's eyes widened, picking up on the bizarre, tense dynamic between the three of them.

Quinn knew Miles was blind to the truth. He would believe Jade's lies without a shred of evidence, never bothering to ask for the actual story.

Whatever tiny shred of love she once held for him had long been ground to dust by his endless cruelty. She thought she was bulletproof by now.

But hearing him effortlessly brand her as a loose, promiscuous woman without even caring about the facts still stung.

Her chest tightened, a bitter wave of humiliation washing over her.

She lowered her eyelashes, masking the brief flash of self-deprecating sorrow in her eyes.

To him, she would always be nothing more than trash.

Swallowing her anger, she met his furious gaze with cold, unflinching clarity.

Her eyes were steady, refusing to back down an inch.

"I hit her because she deserved it!"

"Apologize!"

Seeing that Quinn had absolutely no intention of submitting, completely brushing off his command, Miles's expression darkened into something deadly.

His aura turned bone-chilling.

"Hunter, call the police and have Arthur Jr. arrested. He's been using my name to commit fraud all over town. It's time he paid for it."

"Have the legal team sue him into the ground."

"Yes, Mr. York."

Hunter didn't dare argue with the terrifying energy rolling off his boss. He simply nodded.

At those words, Quinn's spine locked tight, the stubborn pride in her eyes shattering in an instant.

Her eyelashes fluttered rapidly, her fingernails biting deep into her palms.

She wasn't afraid of being framed or bullied, but her older brother was reckless.

"Mr. York, Jade's face is swelling up terribly! It's going to take days to heal. That woman is vicious; she hit her with everything she had."

"If it's a sincere apology, she should be groveling at Jade's feet to beg for forgiveness, not just tossing out a cheap 'I'm sorry.' How is that fair to Jade?"

Miles remained silent, and his silence fueled Jade's confidence.

She hid a smirk and put on a facade of gentle persuasion.

"Quinn, if you don't want to apologize, I won't force you. But you've really crossed a line with Miles this time. He always keeps his word. If you want him to spare your brother, you need to appease him."

Jade's words brilliantly painted her as the forgiving saint while effectively cornering Miles into enforcing the punishment.

Assistant Reed broke into a cold sweat, secretly terrified of Jade's manipulative brilliance.

Thank God she hadn't crossed her, or she'd be chewed up and spit out without a trace.

Seeing that Miles was fully endorsing the demand for her to grovel publicly, Quinn felt her heart bleed.

Even though she felt nothing but apathy toward him now, his willingness to let her be humiliated this way was devastating.
