She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 61

Still reeling in shock, Lynn Reed felt her heart drop—was Mr. York really secretly married?

There had been rumors circulating in the company about a hidden marriage, but she had dismissed them as mere gossip.

Mr. York and Jade were practically inseparable every day, and everyone assumed Jade was the only woman he could ever love. How could he already be married?

But hearing it with her own ears, she had no choice but to believe it.

Mr. York was truly married, and the object of that hidden marriage was the very woman standing right in front of her.

She quickly hurried away, terrified that Quinn Avery might cast another glance in her direction.

Mrs. Thorne shifted her gaze nervously, her voice laced with guilt. "I'm so sorry, Ms. Avery. I... I was used as a pawn. I'm truly sorry for causing you so much trouble."

Mrs. Thorne had finally realized she had been manipulated, and a heavy wave of remorse washed over her.

Quinn replied calmly, "Mrs. Thorne, please take a look at who sent you those messages. If you can find any evidence pointing to one of your acquaintances, I'd appreciate it if you could send it to me."

"I will."

...

The next morning, Quinn and Miles York arrived at City Hall right on the dot at nine o'clock.

They took the VIP lane, bypassing the line entirely.

Quinn felt a profound sense of calm, mingled with an unrecognized trace of anticipation. The moment had finally arrived; all that was left was to get the divorce certificate.

Once this was all settled, she would take her mother and the two children and move to Aurelia.

From then on, she would never have to see Miles again.

The world was vast, and the country was huge. As long as she actively avoided him, their paths would never cross again.

The clerk at City Hall couldn't help but marvel when they saw the young couple standing before them.

What a stunningly perfect pair.

The man was breathtakingly handsome, radiating an aura of elite nobility that placed him far above ordinary men.

The woman was elegant and gentle, her natural beauty blooming like a delicate flower even without a trace of makeup.

If these two had children, they would undoubtedly be the most brilliant, beautiful, and adorable kids in the world.

Seeing the 'No Children' section checked on the forms, the clerk couldn't help but feel a twinge of regret.

Miles was just reaching for the pen when a frantic ringtone shattered the quiet, halting his hand in mid-air.

Seeing it was his father calling, he answered the phone.

"Miles, it's terrible! Your grandmother suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. She's in the ICU right now. The doctor says she's slipping in and out of consciousness, and she keeps repeating your name. Get to the hospital right now!"

"What?"

The man, who had been completely indifferent and shrouded in an icy detachment just moments before, shot up from his chair.

Grandma was in the ICU?

With no room left in his mind to care about the present situation, he gripped his phone and spoke with urgent desperation. "I... I'm on my way!"

He took a few steps away before suddenly looking back at the woman beside him. "Quinn, Grandma had a sudden medical emergency and is in the ICU. She keeps calling for me, so I have to go immediately."

His movements were rushed, yet he still maintained a sliver of restraint. "We'll push the divorce back by one day."

With those words, he completely abandoned the moment he had supposedly been anticipating for so long. Right now, his grandmother's life overshadowed everything else.

Miles turned and strode quickly away, his broad back rigid with anxiety.
