Allen’s voice was firm. “Enough. We settled this before. Pregnancy doesn’t erase past mistakes.

“Joanne, as Luna's adoptive mother, there are things we can’t say. Can't you?

“Tell her to stop scheming. The Graves family isn’t desperate for kids.”

The word adoptive hit hard. Joanne’s resolve wavered, and she

backed down.

“Fine. | understand.”

Dinner ended on a sour note.

Alyssa tugged Kaia into the garden for a stroll.

“Kaia, can you believe Luna's luck? Alden visits once, and she’s pregnant?

“And right at four weeks, she finds out. That's suspiciously perfect.”

Alyssa was fed up with Luna. “I'm not even inviting her to my

wedding. If she comes back, good luck getting her to leave.”

Kaia had a gut feeling Luna wouldn't stay abroad long.

Despite Lucien’s objections, what if Luna insisted on returning?

She kept that thought to herself.

“Alyssa, how's your wedding dress coming along?”

Alyssa’s cheeks flushed. “Landon picked it out for me.”

Kaia squinted, teasing, “What's this? We haven't seen each other in a bit, and you two are getting cozy?”

“Cozy? Hardly. He just had sdresses custom-made in my favorite style. They're still being designed. I'm

starting to think he’s not so bad.”

Landon turned out to be surprisingly sweet.

Kaia noticed the ring on Alyssa’s finger and grinned knowingly. “Oh, not bad at all. That ring’s gotta be worth at

least a million dollars.”

Alyssa blushed. “Okay, enough about me, Kaia.”

Kaia asked, “Are you going to your mom’s wedding tomorrow?”

Alyssa’s eyes turned cold. “No way. I'm not going.”

Kaia nodded, sighing inwardly. Sknots only they could untic.

Even as her friend, she couldn't push Alyssa.

“If you don’t want to go, don’t. Your happiness comes first, Alyssa.”

Alyssa’s smile returned, and she teased, “Kaia, how was that business outfit? Fun?”

Kaia’s face went red. “What? | don’t know what you're talking

about.”

“Kaia, are you and Uncle Lucien planning for a baby this year?”

Kaia froze.

Lucien had never brought it up, but they always used protection.

She shook her head. “Not yet. I'm aiming for a promotion next year, so no baby plans for now.”

If she got pregnant, everything would be thrown off track.

For at least three years, she’d be stuck.

When Luna heard from Joanne that she’d have to stay abroad until after the birth, her mood plummeted.

Alden took the phone. “Luna, don’t stress. Pregnant women need to stay calm. I'll visit next month once things

settle.”

Luna’s voice lit up with surprise. “Really, Alden?”

“Really. Luna, when the baby’s born, I'll bring you both back. But don’t cause trouble for Kaia anymore, okay? I'll

treat you well.”

Luna had just been floating on cloud nine, but his next sentence sent her crashing straight down.

Why did he have to say that?

Did Alden really think | was s-stirring troublemaker?

If Kaia hadn't pushed her, why would she have bothered?

A sudden pain stabbed her stomach, and she groaned.

“What's wrong, Luna?” Alden asked, alarmed.

Luna sat, clutching her belly. “It’s nothing, just a sharp cramp. I'll be okay in a bit.

Alden was clearly worried. The baby was only a month along. He really wanted this child to be born healthy.

He vowed to be a devoted husband and a loving father.

“Take it easy. Let the maids handle things. Need more help? | can send sfrom home.”

Luna's face was cold, but her voice warmed. “Thanks, Alden.”

Joanne overheard her son’s anxious tone. “Is she okay?”

“She's fine, just a twinge. She should check with the doctor. later,” Alden said.

“Good, I'll arrange it! Lucien’s heartless!”

Alden’s gaze hardened. Yeah. Lucien’s heartless!

Meanwhile, Lucien gently held Kaia’s hand as they got into the

car.

He motioned for Chris to raise the privacy partition.

As soon as the car started moving, he grabbed her chin and kissed her deeply.

His tongue danced with hers, bold and unrestrained.

Kaia melted, collapsing into his arms.

Kaia chuckled, “We could have him stay with us for a bit.”

“No way,” Lucien shot down without hesitation.

He wasn’t about to let Allen disrupt their private world.

Kaia blinked at him. “Lucien, do you want a baby?”

Lucien gazed at her, a slow, deep smile spreading across his lips.

“Honey, you want a baby now?”

Kaia pressed her lips together, shaking her head gently.
