She Walked Away With His Twins While He Begged the Ground She Walked On novel Chapter 86

"Fine. But don't you dare try pulling a fast one on me again. If you sell this phone watch I'm getting for Luna, you'll be paying for it with interest."

As he finished speaking, his dark eyes practically screamed a lethal warning.

...

Jade's assistant, Lynn Reed, was preparing for the upcoming trip abroad when she found out Hunter was purchasing a phone watch. She immediately relayed the news to Jade.

Jade guessed right away that it was for that little brat, Luna. Her fingernails bit sharply into her palms, her eyes flashing with pure venom.

It seemed she had underestimated Quinn. The pathetic woman actually had the nerve to use such underhanded tricks to win favor!

She gave Assistant Reed a few swift instructions. Assistant Reed's eyes widened in shock. "Ms. Winter, is... is that really a good idea? If Hunter finds out, he'll definitely report it to Mr. York."

"Just make sure you do it quietly. Besides, even if that brat Luna receives it, we can just say she broke it herself."

Assistant Reed thought it over, decided it was a solid plan, and personally went to execute it.

...

At Regency Bay.

Grandma Evelyn returned from a walk in the garden just as Miles was coming downstairs. He walked over to help her.

"Grandma, I'm heading out on my business trip today. I'll have Silas take you back to the old estate first."

Grandma Evelyn nodded. "Alright. Take care of yourself out there."

She glanced over at her grandson's wife, wishing Quinn could go with him.

What a shame.

She knew her stubborn grandson would never agree to bring Quinn along, and she didn't want to ruin his mood right before his flight.

Quinn felt a massive wave of relief wash over her when she heard Miles was leaving.

The timing was perfect. She wouldn't have to scramble for excuses about why she was away from Regency Bay for the next few days.

"Quinn, go see Miles off. You don't have to go to the airport, just walk him to the door."

Miles actually had something he wanted to say, so he didn't object to her seeing him out.

Quinn reluctantly stepped outside, keeping quiet, just putting on a show for Grandma Evelyn.

Miles, however, assumed she was agonizing over how to say something sweet to him, or figuring out the best moment to hand him a lucky charm.

He waited a few minutes. She didn't say a single word.

Annoyed, he snapped, "Quinn, while I'm away, you better behave. Don't cause any unnecessary trouble for me."

Quinn looked up and shot him a dull glance. "Miles, what kind of trouble could I possibly cause?"

Miles arched an eyebrow. "You know exactly what I mean. I shouldn't have to spell it out for you."

Quinn couldn't be bothered to decipher his mood. After all, they would be strangers soon enough. "Have a safe trip, Miles."
