The main diamond on the necklace was brilliantly full and luminous, perfectly complemented by a matching set of pink diamond earrings and a delicate bracelet.
The candlelight danced across the gems, casting a soft, mesmerizing peach-pink halo.
This was a nine-figure treasure won at auction—exquisite, blindingly radiant, and quietly exuding a breathtaking luxury in the flickering light.
"Madam, this is the jewelry set Mr. York won at the auction house. It's called 'Blush Moon.' Mr. York said this set suits you perfectly."
Quinn didn't even bat an eyelash. She felt absolutely nothing toward anything Miles offered her.
Instead, Miles stood up from his seat, reaching over to take the velvet box. The candlelight cast a warm glow across his features.
He leaned forward slightly, his gaze dropping to her slender, porcelain neck. His voice was low, laced with a tenderness he didn't even realize he possessed.
"Your neck is bare. You're missing a necklace. Let me put it on you."
He raised his hands, preparing to lift the 'Blush Moon' diamonds from their case.
Without a word, Quinn leaned back slightly, smoothly avoiding his outstretched hands.
It was a subtle movement, and she remained entirely silent, yet the physical distance she created felt like an impenetrable icy wall.
The flickering candlelight highlighted her stoic, unbothered expression. She was suddenly reminded of the time they were in his car, and he had casually tossed her a set of Tahitian pearls.
He had told her they suited her back then, too. But after she wore them, she found out from Jade Winter that they were just a cheap promotional freebie he hadn't cared about.
He had even told Jade that Quinn was only fit for cast-offs and freebies.
Ever since that day, she had sworn to herself she would never give him another opportunity to humiliate her.
Therefore, no matter what this man placed in front of her, she would never accept it.
Miles's hands froze in midair. The warm affection on his face stiffened, and the tenderness in his eyes slowly drained away.
His grip on the velvet box tightened, a heavy suffocation pressing against his chest.
The pink diamonds gleamed beautifully under the warm light. When he first saw this set at the auction, he had known immediately that it belonged to her.
He truly believed that once it rested against Quinn's skin, the masterpiece would finally have a worthy owner.
But now, she wouldn't even spare a second glance at a treasure worth hundreds of millions.
Was it the gift she despised... or the man giving it?
In the past, Miles would have walked away with a cold sneer. But today, he swallowed his pride, keeping his tone gentle.
"Quinn, the necklace matches the burgundy dress you're wearing tonight. I won it specifically for you."
Quinn lowered her eyes, her voice frigid. "There's no need."
"You don't like it?"
Miles genuinely thought she just didn't care for the design. He could buy something else. There had to be something she liked.
Quinn looked up at him, her eyes filled with exhaustion and disdain. "Miles, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Lol.. this guy is a complete fool , I dont know how he is the top predator , he rather believes Jade than Doctor's diagnosis 🙄 he is rich , if he didn't believe that particular doc ,he cud take her to another doctor. N he says he thinks of her as sis I mean no brother is this obsessed with his sis ,he does have a bio sis, he doesnt behave with her like that....
Whats wrong with grandparents in this kind of stories? They force the wife to stay even if she is miserable bcos they believe their grandson loves her but never tell how a married guy shud behave just enabling his behavior. 😏...
He can be friends with Jade with no boundaries but she cant be friends with Ethan? Such hypocrisy. So he does know the way he is being with Jade is wrong and still does it...
This guy brought the kid against her mom's wishes and he doesn't even respect her n when her kids are hurt she can't even fight? What gives him the right? He is just plain disgusting...
Why does he have authority over other kids? Why wud he send his assistant to bring the kids over against their mom's wishes? This guy is just stupid ,it's like a mad n stupid dog sitting on money n just doing whatever he feels like without an ounce of respect for others....
You are just a snob and holier than thou person....
His aristocratic upbringing stopped him from losing composure? Seriously , his aristocratic upbringing is not that great , he got no morals , only using underhanded tactics on a helpless individual . He got money ,so it's a viable sophistry when his heart is rotten. When the winter's family is in the wrong ,why is he scared of them attacking his wife and the winter's family doesn't even give him a shot n he still acts like a dog for them. Please don't make him the endgame for her....
It's for her own good . He is afraid of Arthur Quinn ? I mean what use is he as a husband when he's afraid of someone will ruin his wife's career n already had done once and he still doesn't have the guts to stand up for her? He can only show his power n abuse on innocent ones with no background like his wife? How disgusting is he? N he thinks he's above everyone and even when he looks down upon someone bcos she is a maid's daughter , when he is this spineless?...
Why only one episode uploading for the last 2 days?...
I would have accepted the jerk husband ending up with the heroine if he’s only powerful, intelligent but he’s so powerless and so stupid....
