Chapter 68 Replaced

After work, Kaia stopped by a home décor store at the mall. She’d decided it was time to replace the curtains at Lucien’s villa -something lighter, softer.

While Lucien was on his way to dinner, her message popped up on his phone: [Do you think this sheer curtain goes well with the beige color?]

He glanced at the photo. The fabric was delicate and airy-very different from his usual taste. Most of his place was decorated in dark greys and blacks. Sleek, cold… impersonal.

Maybe too cold for someone like her.

He replied right away: [Looks great. You’re in charge of the home decor, my dear.]

Kaia felt a warm flush rise to her cheeks. That last part-my dear-caught her off guard.

Still, she quickly typed back: [Alright, I’ll handle all the arrangements then.]

And she did.

Curtains, carpets, throw pillows, a tablecloth, bedding for the master bedroom—she picked out everything with care. Nothing

too frilly, but just enough to soften the sharp edges of his space.

Later that evening, she sent him another message: [The workers will be there tomorrow for installation. Here’s the contact

number. Could you let the staff know?]

Lucien responded almost immediately, sending her the front door password and a list of numbers.
