Landon played dumb. “What do you mean, last time? What are you talking about?”

Alyssa hesitated, biting her lip. “I mean the night we drank too much after the concert.”

Nothing had actually happened that night. Landon had purposely misled her, making her believe it was her fault.

If it weren’t for that, she would never have ended up marrying him.

He shrugged. “Oh, babe, you misunderstood. You were drunk. How could I take advantage of that?”

Alyssa fell silent. It was like she didn’t even know the man in front of her anymore.

This guy is so sneaky! Who the hell taught him to be like this?

George hadn’t really meant it when he said he wanted to explore. It was just something he blurted out, He had no real plans to drag Kaia all over the city.

So he waved it off. “Don’t bother, Kaia. Let’s just do a one–day tour of New York or something.”

Lucien shot him a sideways glance, looking mildly impressed- like George had finally said something that made sense.

And after that, George could actually feel Lucien’s attitude shift. Huh. Progress. The corner of his mouth twitched, almost a smirk.

Just then, Kaia picked up a call. It was Alyssa.

George’s eyes flickered, just for a second, but he said nothing.

Kaia answered, cheerful as ever.

“Hey, Alyssa. Yeah, George is back in the States. Oh, Lucien and I are just showing him around.”

Then, after a pause, she added, “A honeymoon? Us, together? Sure, that works.”

The moment she hung up, Lucien frowned. “What do you mean, together?”

Kaia turned to him, totally casual,

“Alyssa said it’s boring with just the two of them. She figured the four of us could do a group honeymoon. Maybe hit a beach or something. What do you think?”

Lucien gave a half–shrug. “Not really my thing, but whatever.
