Chapter 70 Find the Truth

When she saw Jude’s name flashing on the screen, a wave of calm washed over her frayed nerves.

Meanwhile, Lucien sat there, his fingers wrapped around his phone. He’d witnessed the whole thing of Kaia liking and then unliking the post.

She finally saw it. But why did she unlike it? Is she angry?

Before Lucien could spiral any further about Kaia’s reaction, his phone buzzed again.

It was Allen.

“Lucien,” his father said, voice already laced with curiosity, “you found a girlfriend?”

Within the entire Graves family, Allen rarely dared to meddle in Lucien’s personal life.

Not because he didn’t want to―he just couldn’t.

Years ago, he’d tried the usual matchmaking tricks. He’d even gone as far as arranging for a woman to wait in Lucien’s room.

Lucien had responded by catching the next international flight out… and staying overseas for five whole years.

To the public, it looked like he’d gone abroad to expand the Graves family’s business empire. But those in the know understood the truth: Lucien had fled. Plain and simple.

Ever since then, Allen had walked on eggshells around his youngest son when it came to relationships.

So when Lucien made an Instagram post—a public one, no less- about having a girlfriend, it sent shockwaves through the entire Graves clan.

Allen wasted no time. “Is it serious?”

Lucien didn’t even hesitate.

“Yeah, Dad. I’ve got a girlfriend. We’re getting married next month.”

Allen sucked in a sharp breath. “Next month? That soon?”
