Valentine Teller found her parents, but Mark Reed didn't think it was a good thing.
He felt nothing but disgust for the Quiles. If he could, he would have preferred they never came to find Valentine Teller, or acknowledge her.
The pain they brought far outweighed any happiness.
Mark Reed's large hand touched Valentine Teller's still flat belly. His child, he would protect. No one could take it away.
The life or death of Sara Quiles had nothing to do with him.
He's Mark Reed, a businessman driven by profit, not a philanthropist full of benevolence. He only did things that benefitted him, and would never take on other people's pain.
Valentine Teller was already blinded by familial affection and couldn't make the right decisions, but he could.
Protecting their own child was what they should do!
