She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 590

Zack came too?

How in the world did she end up at Regency Bay last night?

A barrage of questions crashed against her chest, tangling her thoughts into a tight knot.

She had drank a little alcohol the night before, which must have supercharged her cold.

When she passed out, the person walking toward her wasn't Ethan—it was Miles.

He must have brought her to Regency Bay and called Zack over to treat her.

Once the pieces finally clicked together, she hurriedly searched for her phone.

It was completely out of battery.

Zachary and Gail walked into the room shortly after. "Quinn, how are you feeling? Anywhere still hurting?"

"Zack, my... my dizziness is gone, but my throat is still pretty scratchy."

"Good, that means the fever broke. Make sure to drink plenty of warm water and lay off the alcohol. Take the medication I left for you, and your throat should be back to normal in a couple of days."

"Thank you, Zack. I'm so sorry for being such a hassle last night."

Zachary waved it off casually. "We're friends. There's no need to be so formal with me."

Gail handed her some toiletries. Once Quinn had freshened up, she headed downstairs.

"Quinn, come have some breakfast with me."

Jack had already instructed the staff to lay out breakfast. Miles had stepped away to take a phone call, leaving only her and Zachary in the dining room.

She sat down, and shortly after, Miles returned from his call.

He glanced at her, his expression carrying the usual aloof and distant chill.

Her phone suddenly rang. Recognizing the caller ID, Quinn stepped away from the table. "Yara, I'm okay."

She had called Yara the moment she plugged her phone in, but Yara was in a meeting with her phone silenced.

Upon seeing Quinn's messages after the meeting, she immediately called back.

"Oh, thank god. I couldn't reach you yesterday and was terrified. I called Ethan, and he said you passed out and Miles took you. Ethan tried to chase him down but couldn't catch up."

"I just texted Ethan back too."

"What about the kids..."

Quinn chatted with Yara for a bit longer. After hanging up, she returned to the dining room.

Zachary moved the eggs away from her. "Quinn, you shouldn't eat eggs with a cold. Have some porridge; it'll be easier on your stomach."

"Are you just here on a business trip?"

Quinn nodded. "Yes, I am."

"Then you need to make sure you're resting properly. Are you staying here or going back to the hotel?"

But thanks to the cold, things might have to be pushed back a couple of days.

"About a week total."

"Perfect. I'll give you a call."

Coming downstairs, Miles caught the tail end of the conversation. His footsteps faltered slightly, his grip tightening around whatever he was holding.

"Leaving for the office, Miles?"

"Yes."

Miles didn't spare Quinn a single glance as he strode out of the house.

Tristan observed his boss's tight expression and stole a few discreet glances.

The boss had explicitly called Hunter this morning saying he'd work from the study today. Why the sudden rush to the office?

He didn't dare ask, terrified of setting off his boss's temper.

Just as Tristan went to start the engine, Miles ordered him to wait.

"Sir, did you forget something? Should I go fetch it?"

Miles's expression was utterly flat. "It's nothing. We'll leave a little later to avoid the traffic."

Tristan was speechless. Traffic? At this hour?
