Her throat tightened, her voice trembling with a heavy, bitter sorrow.
"It was Grandma's fault... Back then, Grandma foolishly treated someone else's child like her precious treasure and neglected you both. I even said so many hurtful things."
"Grandma is apologizing to you both. It's all Grandma's fault..."
At this moment, she was thoroughly consumed by regret. The guilt and remorse completely shattered the arrogant, high-and-mighty facade she usually wore. Her eyes brimmed with anguish, her voice hoarse and broken.
"It's... Grandma was a fool. I couldn't even recognize my own flesh and blood, and I ended up hurting the grandchildren I should have loved the most."
She leaned forward, reaching out a trembling hand, desperately wanting to touch them, but she was terrified of scaring them away.
Her hand hovered in midair, too afraid to land. The tears in her eyes were finally threatening to spill over.
"Could you... give Grandma a chance to make it up to you?"
The twins each handed her a tissue, their little voices flat and calm, clearly not wanting to see her break down like this.
"Your tears are about to fall. You should wipe them."
Macy witnessed the scene, and resentment bubbled up inside her again. "You two little brats, she is your own grandmother! How can you talk to her like that?"
"Did Quinn purposely teach you to say these things? How can you be so cruel to your own flesh and blood?"
She glared at her heartbroken mother, then shifted her resentful gaze back to the kids.
Luna's little brow furrowed. "Mommy never taught us to say anything. This is just what we saw with our own eyes. In fact, we didn't even tell Mommy what happened at Great-Grandma's birthday party."
Those words made Judith feel even more utterly ashamed. A massive wave of remorse and devastation washed over her, and her voice broke into quiet sobs.
"Macy, this is all my fault. Don't you dare blame the kids. The reason these two little darlings can't accept me right now is because we went too far back then."
Judith couldn't bear to hear her daughter scold the twins. These were the absolute pieces of her heart.
The reason they didn't want to accept her now, the reason they refused to call her Grandma, was purely because of her own mistakes. How could she possibly blame them?
Miles felt a bitter lump in his throat too. Out of everyone here, he understood that feeling the most. He had treated Leo like his own child while completely icing out his own flesh and blood.
Even though he could argue that he didn't know the truth back then, a mistake was still a mistake.
If his precious children didn't want to be close to him now, it was exactly what he deserved.
"Mom, let's head inside first."
"Miles, do they... still refuse to call you Daddy?"
Hearing that the kids only referred to her son as 'Uncle', Judith felt another sharp stab of pain in her chest, her eyes filling with profound heartache for her son.
"Mom, we can talk about this later."
The twins sat in the garden with their mother, sipping their drinks. Thinking back on what had just happened, a flicker of guilt crossed their eyes.

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....
