Wedding My Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 98 The Car Crash

They'd been out all day, but Kaia didn’t feel tired at all.

After dinner with Lucien, he drove her home.

As she stepped out of the car, she gave him a casual wave.

“Goodbye, Lucien. Drive safe.”

Lucien’s lips curved into a faint, charming smile.

“Alright. Thanks for today, Kaia. I'll let you know when the bed arrives so you can test it out.”

Kain shot him a strange look but didn’t respond. She simply

and went upstairs.

Lucien, in high spirits, settled back into the car.

“Let's go, Chris.”

Chris, his driver, gave a knowing nod and pulled out of Kaia’s neighborhood.

At a quiet street corner just outside the complex, Lucien’s gaze drifted out the window. His eyes narrowed as

they landed on a familiar license plate.

Is that Alden’s car?

A shadow passed over Lucien’s face,

“Chris,” he said, his voice low and dangerous.

“Mr. Graves?” Chris glanced at him through the rearview mirror, puzzled.

“You see that black car across the street?” Lucien’s tone was

calm but sharp. “Ram it.”

Chris nearly choked. “Sir, what did you just say?”

“I said hit it,” Lucien repeated, his voice steady as steel. “Don’t hurt anyone inside-just give the car a good

bump.”

Chris’s hands trembled on the steering wheel. He clenched his

ook a deep breath, and pressed the accelerator. “Yes, sir.”

Meanwhile, Alden was fuming, his mind clouded with anger.

Out of nowhere, a Maybach barreled straight toward his car’s front end.

He yanked the wheel hard, swerving, but his car still slammed into the roadside guardrail with a sickening

crunch.

“Damn it!” Alden roared, his voice raw with frustration.

What the hell?

He fumbled with his seatbelt, ready to storm out and give the other driver a piece of his mind.

However, when he caught sight of the Maybach’s license plate, his anger froze.

That was Lucien’s car.

Chris stepped out, his heart pounding as he recognized Alden’s face.

Lucien’s order to “hit it” had thrown him for a loop.

Sure, his boss had clarified to keep it light-no injuries-but in

y-plus years, Chris had never done anything this reckless. His nerves were shot.

Lucien, on the other hand, sauntered out of the car with the case of someone stepping into a boardroom.

He approached Alden’s crumpled vehicle, his eyebrow arching in mock surprise. “Alden? What a coincidence-

didn’t expect it to be you,”

Chris, standing behind him, had to bite back a smirk.

Oscar-worthy performance, boss.

Alden, who moments ago was ready to explode, deflated at the sight of his uncle.

Still, his voice carried a hint of petulance. “Uncle Lucien, what's up with your driver today? The road’s so wide,

and he still managed to crash into me.”

“My apologies, Mr. Alden Graves,” Chris jumped in, his tone dripping with remorse. “My eyesight must be failing.

Are you hurt? Please don’t be upset.”

Lucien shot Chris a withering glare. “What's wrong with you? You're docked a day's pay for this.”

Then, turning to Alden with an expression of deep concern, he “Alden, letcall an ambulance. I'll cover all the

medical sts. Better to be safe than sorry. Even a minor crash can have hidden consequences.

“Car accidents are no joke. If you're hurt and | didn’t do anything, your dad would have my head.”

Alden gave an awkward chuckle, scratching the back of his neck. “Uncle Lucien, I'm fine, really. Just a little dent

in the car. No need for an ambulance.”

“Nonsense!” Lucien’s voice took on a stern, paternal edge. “You young people always think you're invincible.

You're going to the hospital, no arguments.

Alden'’s face flushed with embarrassment. He had no idea why Lucien was making such a fuss.

Before he could explain, Lucien cut in, his voice firm.

The doctor rolled his eyes, clearly unimpressed.

next-level.

With a sigh, he printed out the order and handed it over. “Fine. Go left down the hall to pay for it.”

And SO. under Lucien’s unrelenting insistence, Alden found himself shuffled off for a brain scan he didn’t need.

“Uncle Lucien, isn’t this a bit much?” Alden asked, his voice tinged with exasperation.

Alden sighed, clutching the hospital form as he joined the queue.

His original plan-tracking down Kaia to confront her about this supposed boyfriend-had been derailed by this

absurd detour.

The fire in his chest had fizzled out.

As he shuffled forward, a thought struck him. He turned back to Lucien, his brow creasing.

Kaia lived on Oak Street, and Uncle Lucien usually didn’t go there...so how che showed up today?

“Uncle Lucien, what were you doing in Oak Street anyway?”
