Wedding My Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 26 Something was about to explode

Lucien gave a tiny smile but didn’t bother saying more.

Then he threw in all casual–like, “Just call me Lucien, I’m not that much older than you anyway.

“I mean, even when you were with Alden, calling me ‘Mr. Graves‘ was way too formal.”

Kaia’s eyes widened a little.

She wanted to tell him that “Mr. Graves” was totally normal, but swallowed it back.

Lucien? Seriously? Isn’t he from my dad’s generation?

Now that feels kind of weird.

After what felt like forever, Kaia forced a fight smile and slowly looked up.

Lucien’s eyes were close to hers, dark and endless, like they could see straight through to her soul.

Just when that invisible pressure started choking her, his voice cut through the quiet.

“Take your time. Get comfortable first. You can change later.”

As he spoke, his eyes dropped to her pink lips. His throat bobbed. “Have you eaten?”

“Huh?” Kaia blinked in surprise.

Lucien looked away. “Dinner. Did you eat enough? If not, come grab a bite with me.”

Now that he mentioned it, she really hadn’t eaten much. Her stomach was starting to complain.

“Sure. But it’s on me tonight.” She smiled.

Lucien leaned back a little. “Alright.”

One red car, one black car. They slipped into the city’s night.

Finally, they pulled up outside Redblossom Restaurant.

Kaia’s gaze dimmed. The last time she came here was when she first brought up breaking things off with Alden.
