Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 1164

After hanging up the phone, Owen, who was sitting nearby, commented, "Miles is going to be incredibly conflicted.

If he commits Gwen to a psychiatric facility, he'll be an enemy to his mother, and likely his father, for the rest of his life."

Mira, however, brushed it off. "I simply gave Miles an idea. Whether he acts on it is his choice.

Sometimes in life, you have to be ruthless when the situation demands it. If he doesn't have the stomach for it, then he can just suffer Gwen's torment every single day.

At least with them bothering Miles, we get some peace and quiet over here."

Mira stretched leisurely and rested her head on his shoulder.

Owen wrapped an arm around her. "It's much easier to handle things on our end. We don't have any emotional ties to Gwen, so we can just ignore her entirely.

At worst, we deny her entry or just have the bodyguards throw her out.

But Miles is their biological son. No matter how terrible Sebastian and his wife are, they truly love their son.

They loved Miles wholeheartedly and spared no expense to cultivate his future. So, there are many things we can do effortlessly that become deeply complicated when we ask Miles to do them.

Just like how things were with me and my grandfather..."

However, Mira had no intention of dwelling on such complexities. "That's their problem. I'm not going to worry about it."

The next day, when Mira arrived at the university, the noticeboard at the main gate indeed displayed Seraphina's expulsion notice.

There was also a notice regarding Luna Lance: Since Luna had only received a three-month detention and had shown merit in cooperating, the university hadn't expelled her.

Instead, she was issued a major demerit on her permanent record.

This meant that once Luna's detention was over, she could return to classes. At the very least, her future could still be salvaged.

Mira and Owen had no desire to drive everyone to utter ruin. Among those four, Jocelyn and Lawrence were guilty of heinous crimes and had to face absolute destruction.

After dinner, Mira and Owen didn't rush off to the study. Instead, they sat on the sofa, chatting with Grandma Eleanor and Master Ellis.

They first chatted about trivial matters, and then Master Ellis casually brought it up. "Mrs. Quinn, Miles sent Gwen to a psychiatric facility. What are your thoughts on that?"

Grandma Eleanor was visibly startled at first. "He committed her?"

"Yes, just today."

They had assumed the old lady might feel somewhat distressed, but to their surprise, she chuckled. "I didn't expect the boy to be so decisive. He's much stronger than his father.

For someone like Gwen, a psychiatric ward is exactly where she belongs. She's wreaked havoc on our family for years; it's about time it ended."

Then, she turned to Mira with a smile. "Mira, take me back tomorrow.

With that plague out of the house, the Quinn family can finally regain some peace."
