He then typed: [Grandpa’s birthday party is tomorrow. Are you back from your business trip?]

An hour later, all he got in reply was a simple question mark.

Irritation flashed in Alden’s eyes.

He texted, his fingers moving quickly on the screen:

[Kaia, enough with the tantrum. Don’t you realize how important Grandpa’s birthday party is?]

On the other side, Kaia had just stepped out of the shower.

Reading Alden’s message, she let out a derisive laugh.

She shot back: [Mr. Graves, we’re done. I won’t be there. Bring whoever you want.]

Alden’s patience snapped.

[Playing hard to get again? Who said we broke up? I’ll pick you up at seven tomorrow evening. You know how nice Grandpa has always been to you. Don’t ruin his birthday.]

His message was a mix of threat and warning.

Kaia scoffed, typing: [I’ll go, but pay me first.]

Along with the text, she sent a bank account number.

She added: [Just label it as “service fee“.]

Alden’s face darkened.

What the hell was she pulling now?

But he didn’t have time for a pointless argument. He wired a million dollars without blinking.

Kaia received the money immediately and sent a meme, “Thanks, boss. You’re so generous!”

Clearly, she didn’t want to waste another word on him.

Kaia showed up at the villa on time, wearing a form–fitting

lavender dress.

Her slightly curly, long hair was casually tied up at the back of her head with a white silk ribbon. Her skin was smooth and shiny. Despite her bright and attractive face, she exuded an air of coldness and aloofness.

Strangely enough, the lavender dress softened her sharp features a bit.

As soon as Alden opened the car door, he saw Kaia striding into the courtyard.

It was the first time he’d ever seen her in a form–fitting dress.

The cut outlined every curve of her body, and for a moment, he couldn’t look away.

She was stunning, with a deadly allure that made his heart race and his body heat up.

Alden frowned slightly and said in a gruff tone, “Go upstairs and change your clothes.”

Kaia let out a soft scoff. “Why should I?”

“It’s Grandpa’s birthday banquet. Dressing like this…” He paused for a second, adding, “You’ll draw too much attention.”
