She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 664

A chilling expression spread across Quinn's face, and she let out a cold laugh. "Miles, back when I never said a single bad word about Jade, didn't you throw yourself in front of her to protect her, too? Like you were terrified I was going to eat her alive?"

"What right do you have to judge me now?"

Her expression stung his eyes, and her words struck his chest like a blunt blade.

The fury that had boiled up inside him lodged in his throat, instantly transforming into crushing regret.

He shifted his weight and stepped back. Seeing the opening, Quinn shoved him hard.

She yanked the door open and bolted back to her own room.

...

For several days in a row, Miles didn't return to the Moonbeam Valley villa.

Luna curiously asked Tristan, "Uncle Tristan, is Weird Uncle away on a business trip?"

"He keeps saying he's not coming back for dinner and tells us not to wait up for him."

Tristan's expression faltered, and he let out a heavy sigh.

His boss had been swamped at the company these past few days. Working late into the night, he opted to sleep in the presidential suite at the Aurelia International Hotel so he wouldn't disturb Quinn and the kids.

The next morning, he would head back to the office early. He and Hunter were so busy they barely had time to answer their phones.

Normally, no matter how busy he was, he would always squeeze in time to come home.

But the last few days? Tristan didn't understand it either.

"Mr. York will be back in a couple of days. Do you miss him, Miss Luna? You could always give him a call."

The light in Luna's little face dimmed slightly. She pressed her small lips together and said softly, showing surprising maturity, "If Weird Uncle is busy, then I won't bother him."

Caleb's long eyelashes drooped, half-concealing the faint emotion in his eyes. "He'll come back when he's done working."

Just then, a familiar, grating voice echoed from the doorway. "Mom, see? I told you! My brother really did bring Quinn and those two kids back, and he even bought a villa for her to live in!"

It was none other than Macy.

Her voice arrived before she did.

Judith and Macy marched in, their high heels clicking sharply against the floor, just in time to see Quinn bringing out a tray of pastries for her daughter.

Judith's eyes flared with anger. "Quinn, what are you doing in the villa my son bought?"

"And you brought these completely unrelated kids with you! What kind of spell did you cast on my son?"

Hearing this, Quinn didn't panic, nor did she retreat.

In the past, to keep her children hidden, she would have been terrified of the Yorks discovering them.

But now, this secret wasn't a secret anymore.

Miles already knew. It was only a matter of time before the rest of the York family found out.

She had mentally prepared herself for this long ago. Slowly setting down the tray of pastries, she met their gazes.

Her tone was indifferent. "If you want to know why I'm here, you should ask your son!"

"You—"

Seeing that Quinn no longer held an ounce of respect for her, Judith's chest heaved with fury.

Her face darkened as she prepared to scold her.

But Caleb and Luna suddenly slid down from the indoor slide and dashed over, standing fiercely in front of their mother.

"Don't you dare bully our mommy!" The sweet, milky voices carried a power that couldn't be ignored.
