Wedding My Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 234 Her First TLying

After changing into the swimsuit, Kaia stepped out of the dressing room wrapped tightly in a thick towel,

covering herself as much as she could.

Lucien didn’t mind one bit. He knew she’d have to let it go soon enough.

Without saying a word, he slid open the glass door, revealing a private hot spring pool just large enough for two.

Wisps of white steam curled lazily into the night air. The spring water shimmered under the ambient lighting, tiny

bubbles rising and popping softly at the surface.

Lucien untied his robe without hesitation, revealing the lean, defined lines of his body. He stepped straight into

the pool, the warm water lapping against his skin.

Kaia followed, inching toward the edge. She dipped one foot in, testing the temperature.

“It’s not too hot,” Lucien said with a soft chuckle.

The heat in the air had already brought a light flush to Kaia’s cheeks. “Why are you looking atlike that? Turn

around.”

They'd been far more intimate than this, yet something about disrobing under his gaze-here, now-still made her

ears burn.

Lucien smiled, voice low and teasing. “Oh, con, honey. | want to look at you.”

Something in the way he said it-the gentle coaxing, the warmth in his eyes-made her pause. Slowly, she let the

towel slip from her shoulders, setting it neatly on the rack.

A sheer, delicate fabric clung to her skin, cool against her warmth, veiling her curves just enough to drive him

crazy.

There was nothing underneath.

Lucien stared, completely taken. “Con in, honey,” he murmured, voice thick with desire.

Kaia stepped into the pool, the water rippling around her legs- only for Lucien to pull her-straight into his arms.

“You're so beautiful,” he whispered, breath warm against her

ear.

There was nothing more tempting than something that looked like it wasn’t meant to stay on.

His lips brushed the back of her neck, and her body instinctively melted into his.

“Lucien, stop,” Kaia whispered, her voice breathy, her resistance already wavering.

A playful smile curved his lips.

“Then I'm starting now, honey.”

Kaia didn’t wake until the following afternoon.

Just before she'd passed out the night before, she'd been half-joking to herself.

With Lucien’s kind of drive, if | really went abroad, he’d probably end up having an affair.

A soft voice broke her thoughts.

“Oh, you're awake?” Lucien murmured beside her.

Kaia felt something warm and damp brushing against the crook of her neck. Without looking, she swatted lazily

at it. “Cut it out. I'm starving.”

Lucien took the slap right to the cheek and went silent for a beat, then sighed. “That was abuse.”

Kaia shot him a look, mildly annoyed. “Abuse? Seriously? That doesn’t even count.”

She sat up with a groan. “I'm starving, and you promised we'd

“Last night | was begging you to stop, and you just kept sweet-talkingagain and again. You're such a liar.”

Lucien let out a low, amused laugh.

He had to admit-her swimsuit from last night had completely undone him. And with how often she'd been

working overtlately, there hadn't been much tfor them to be close.

He had just... missed her. Badly.

He leaned closer, brushing his nose against her cheek. “Honey, don’t ever makego that long again, okay? |

can't take it.”

And you want a baby? With self-control like this? Please.

Kaia huffed, “Go make something to eat.”

“Yes, ma'am,” Lucien said.

Kaia headed into the bathroom to freshen up.

When she finally cout two hours later, the table was loaded with food. She really was starving.

It was no surprise actually, considering how exhausting last night had been.

Lucien watched with an amused smile as Kaia worked her way through nearly every bite on the table. He

couldn't resist reaching over and gently poking her stomach.

“Feeling stuffed now?” he teased.

Kaia let out a contented sigh, her eyes fluttering half-shut in satisfaction. “Yeah... | need to walk it off.”

“Walk it off, huh...” Lucien drawled, his voice laced with something that should've been a warning.

But Kaia didn’t catch on. Still blissfully unaware, she nodded. “Yeah. There's not much to do around here, though.

| saw shot springs, but no real sights.”

Lucien leaned back, his smile growing. “True. This place is mostly for soaking in private baths.”

Then, with a glint in his eyes, he added, “But | know a great way to help with digestion.”

Kaia blinked. “What is it?”

She barely got the words out before Lucien leaned in and kissed her, slow and deliberate.

“Honey,” he murmured against her lips, “lethelp you ‘walk it off.“”

Kaia froze, completely caught off guard.

“So?” Jude asked, leaning casually against the doorway. “When do the results cout?”

He already knew Kaia had taken the DELF exam. He just

wanted to hear it from her.

Kaia had felt pretty good walking out of the testing center.

Sciences Po required a score above 70, and she was fairly confident she’d hit at least an 80.

“Not bad,” she replied. “But I'm not sure yet. | should get the results in the next couple of days.”

Three days later, a small delivery arrived at the firm. The receptionist, in a rush, accidentally placed it on

Ophelia’s desk

instead.

Ophelia didn’t even glance at the label at first. She tore it open without thinking, but the moment her eyes

landed on the transcript inside, she froze.

Kaia is leaving?

Then, a wave of excitement hit Ophelia.

If Kaia really left... that non-equity partner spot would fall right into her lap.

Eyes gleaming, she snatched up the transcript and rushed straight to Miles office.

But Miles barely spared the paper a glance before cutting her off.

“Mr. Miller will decide who gets that,” he said flatly.

Then, shooting her a pointed look, he added, “Return the package to its rightful owner-and stop stirring up

trouble.”

Kaia had already received her results by email. Just as she expected, it was an 80-high enough to qualify.

Over the past few days, she had been thinking about how to bring up the topic of studying abroad with Lucien,

She had specifically chosen to have the results sent to the office to avoid Lucien opening them, but in the end,

someone else had opened them anyway.
