Julian gave a half-hearted smile. “Well, that’s good. That's really good.”
Jude added, “Kaia is head over heels for her husband, you know. | just told her to be careful, to watch out in case
she got played, and guess what? She got mad at me.
“If you ask me, after getting married, a woman's gotta keep her head on straight. You never know these days.
Guys lie through their teeth. Shshe won't listen.
“But hey, | can’t say too much. All | can do is keep an eye out for her. If that husband of hers ever dares to treat
her badly, Ill be the first one to deal with him.”
Lucien, trying hard to hold back his grin, felt the corners of his mouth tugging up so far they nearly reached his
ears. Quietly, he decided Jude wasn’t a bad guy at all.
Julian's assistant was startled to see Lucien standing just outside the office and paused for a moment before
asking politely, “Are you here to see Mr. Rhodes, Mr. Graves?”
The office door had been left slightly ajar, and Julian, sharp-eared as always, immediately stood up and cout
to greet him. Catching the subtle look in his own CEO's eyes, he gave a stiff smile. “Oh, Mr. Graves, | didn’t
realize you were here
loo.”

Lucien said, “No worries. | just cby to ask about the project's progress.” He made a show of peering into the
office and said, “Oh, Mr. Halston, you're here too? Don’t mind me, | won't get in the way.”
Jude jumped to his feet in alarm. “Mr. Graves! Oh, uh, right, of
course.”
So, he and Julian then just stood there and watched as Lucien practically skipped away with a hint of a smirk
playing at his lips.
Jude said, “See that, Mr. Rhodes? Mr. Graves is actually pretty approachable. He even smiled at us just now.”
Julian was too stunned to respond. Jude had practically sung his praises to the heavens, so of course Lucien was
all smiles.
He honestly couldn't figure out how Jude kept managing to land on his feet. Even without trying, he somehow
ended up flattering Lucien perfectly!
The guy had unbelievable luck!
When Kaia was just about to get off work, Lucien suddenly told her that he would be picking her up for a dinner
gathering that evening.

She rarely declined these invitations. These events worked out well for both of them-she played the charming
plus-one for his social circle, and in return, he'd give her opportunities to make her presence known.
They were perfectly in syne, rarely needing to spell things out.

But when Lucien’s car pulled up in front of a music festival gate, Kaia blinked, wondering if her eyes were playing
tricks on her.
“Weren't we supposed to be going to a dinner thing?” Kaia asked.
Lucien smiled as he unbuckled her seatbelt, holding up two tickets. “I noticed you trying to buy these online the
other day. The organizer's an old friend, so | managed to get us a pair.”
Kaia remembered her failed attempt-the tickets had sold out within seconds before she could complete her
purchase.
Festival tickets were typically easy to get, but this one was different—with its beachfront location and headlining
band, it had sold out in minutes.
Kaia’s eyes sparkled with amusement as she took in Lucien’s attire. “Only you would show up to a music festival
in a tailored suit,” she said, unable to suppress a fond laugh.
Lucien didn’t seem to mind her teasing. He raised an eyebrow,

asking, “Why, am | breaking the dress code or something?”
Kaia grinned. “Nope, you're good.”

Once they got inside, she seemed to calive, pulling Lucien along to snag a perfect spot. As the opening
music started, she moved to the beat, dancing in place.
With both hands in his pockets, Lucien stood quietly, seeming almost out of sync with the festival vibe. Still, he
looked calm as
ever.
A few girls nearby were whispering, their voices just loud enough to catch. “Hey, do you think that guy in the suit
is about to propose or something?”
The friend answered, “Looks like it to me. | mean, who else would show up to a music festival in a suit? And look,
his hands haven't left his pockets. | bet he is hiding a ring.”
“They do look amazing together though. Wonder if the cameras are gonna zoom in on them later.”
“Ugh, can we not have a cheesy proposal during my favorite band’s set? Why do people always need to steal the
moment?”
The murmurs went on, filled with everything from excitement to envy to disapproval, but none of it seemed to
bother Lucien.
Of course, Kaia heard every bit of it too, and when the lead

singer began chatting with the audience during the break, she found herself nervously sweating.
Please don’t make this a tic proposal. Please don’t.
This time, though, it seemed like fate actually listened to what Kaia was wishing for.
The closing music began to play, and she felt both exhausted and content. She stole a glance at Lucien, who had
sat quietly beside her the entire evening. His blank expression while he stayed through every song almost made
her laugh out loud.
“It’s over,” Kaia said, turning to Lucien. “Thanks for staying through the whole thing. | bet this was your first
festival experience?”
“I enjoyed it,” Lucien said with a gentle smile. “As long as you had fun, that’s all that matters.”
As the bustling crowd moved toward the exit, someone suddenly shouted, “Wow, look up there!”
Above the shoreline, countless lights rose from the horizon, streaking across the sky like shooting stars in a
grand meteor shower. In the next breath, the lights scattered and then gathered again, forming the shape of a
ring box.
Another person in the crowd gasped, “It’s a ring! It’s an animation of a ring box opening.”

Kaia’s lips parted in surprise. “Is it a drone show?”
Lucien replied softly, “Mm-hmm.”

Kaia hadn't quite heard him, so she asked, “What did you say?”
“I said yes, it's a drone show,” Lucien responded.
They were standing at the very back of the crowd, and with everyone's eyes fixed on the spectacle overhead, no
one noticed Lucien quietly slip a ring from his pocket.
He sank to one knee, the diamond ring catching the light as he held it before Kaia. With unwavering eyes fixed
on hers, he asked softly, “Will you marry me?”
Lucien’s voice was low and slightly hoarse, laced with a tenderness that felt like a lover's most intimate whisper.
Kaia felt a cool sensation on her ring finger. Startled, she looked down, only to meet that strikingly handsome
face of his, lit up by the shimmer in his eyes.
Lucien didn’t look away. His gaze stayed locked on hers as if he were waiting for one answer and one answer
only.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd exclaimed, “Wow! But who is Kaia?”
In the sky, the dazzling display of drones arranged themselves into the letters of Kaia’s full name, shining for
