Zane raised his hands. “No big deal. Just heard about what happened with Kaia. Sounds like things got a little
intense. She filed charges against her father’s wife?”
“Sally brought it on herself,” Lucien said.
Zane shook his head. “True, but the public won't care about the details. It'll still look bad that Kaia sent her own
stepmother to prison. And now that you've blocked every attorney in the city from touching her case...”
It was too high-profile.
That was what Zane really cto say.
Lucien was drawing too much attention with his bold actions.
But Lucien wasn’t fazed. “So what? If someone tried to hurt Alden or even kill him, and even went after your
wife, could you let that slide?”
Zane fell silent.
“If you can swallow that kind of insult and walk away like snoble pacifist, then fine. You do you. But me? I'm
not that kind of coward.”
Zane frowned.

Not that kind of coward?
And why did he bring up Alden?

Zane could see Lucien wasn’t going to budge. His attempts at reasoning had gone nowhere, so he gave up with
a sigh.
It wasn’t like he was particularly close to the Martins family. Ruben had just reached out to him through mutual
contacts. Zane had only stepped in because Lucien’s approach might've seemed a little excessive.
But since Lucien clearly didn’t care, Zane wasn’t about to keep pressing.
Not long after, Lucien got a message from Jason, saying that Kaia was back at the villa.
Lucien deliberately waited a while longer before leisurely driving home. He would not let her off so easily.
When he walked into the villa, he glanced around the first floor. Kaia wasn’t there.
Jason approached quietly. “Mr. Graves, Mrs. Graves went straight upstairs to your room after she got back.”
Lucien frowned.

He paused in front of the door, thinking about knocking. But then again, this was his bedroom, too. So why
bother knocking?
He turned the doorknob, only to find it locked from the inside.
Then, Lucien knocked on the door.
“Open up,” he ordered, trying to sound indifferent.
Inside, Kaia was facing the mirror, struggling with her outfit. Her heart suddenly jumped.
Why is he back already?!
“Uh, hold on. Just ten more minutes!”
She couldn't possibly open the door dressed like this.
The outfit was... complicated. It had taken her forever to get it on. And now, just when she was about to get it
off, Lucien was standing right outside the door, waiting. Her hands fumbled faster.
Lucien’s patience was thinning.

What the hell’s going on in there? Is she hiding someone?

Irritated, he turned to the study and pulled out the spare key from the drawer. He inserted it slowly, turned it,
and pushed the door open. Then, he was greeted by a vision in white.
A delicate lace slip clung to her curves, cinching at the waist and hugging every line of her body. The light hit her
just right, casting a soft, creamy glow over her skin.
Kaia had been adjusting the fluffy bunny ears perched on her head when she heard the door.
She whipped around, eyes wide in shock. “Why would you barge in like that?!”
She had planned to take off the ears before opening the door, but clearly, he had no intention of waiting.
Lucien’s gaze darkened. He shut the door behind him and locked it.
Apparently, he couldn't wait to get closer. He wrapped his arms around her slim waist and pulled her onto his
lap. Then, his mouth found hers with perfect, hungry precision.
There was no resisting that outfit.
Almost like he knew this was coming, Lucien’s hands slid beneath her thighs, steadying her as she went soft.

Her face flushed a deep red, her eyes glimmering like glass under the dim light. The bunny ears on her head
tilted to one side with each breathless movement.
But Lucien still looked every bit the composed gentleman, his shirt buttoned neatly to the collar. However, his
eyes were burning with desire.
He dragged his fingers over her delicate skin, watching with quiet fascination as it bloomed under his touch.
Kaia had dressed like this to make it up to Lucien.
But the moment his lips crashed into hers, her thoughts turned
to static.
The already fragile fabric gave way under Lucien’s merciless rip, tearing in two.
“You!” Her big eyes glared at him, her cheeks turned red, looking all shocked and innocent.
“Easy,” he murmured against her ear, breath warm and teasing. “You wore this forto rip off. I'm just giving
you what you
want.
“Honey, I'm only here to please you.”
Kaia blacked out from exhaustion that night.

The bunny costwas nothing but scraps now. There was no way she was walking to the bathroom like this.
For now, they weren't quite that comfortable with each other in broad daylight.

But as he was about to leave, he turned with a playful frown. “So... who taught you that?”
Kaia’s face went scarlet. She forced herself to stay calm. “No one. I'm self-taught.”
Lucien gave a low chuckle.
Oh really? Self-taught, huh?

Later, Jude chatted with Kaia. “Someone finally picked up your stepmother’s case,” he said.
