Chapter 86 Lucien Wanted Them to Get Married

His lips pressed into a thin line as he handed her a shopping bag.

Kaia caught a glimpse of purple fabric inside and frowned. “You’re giving me the dress Luna didn’t want?”

Alden shifted uncomfortably. “It’s brand new! Kaia, I bought this one specifically for you. She never wore it!”

Kaia’s lips twitched into a sarcastic smile.

She looked at Alden with amused disbelief. “Look, if you want to lie to me, fine. But don’t lie to yourself. Honestly, I’d love for you and Luna to get together already. At least then you’d stop bothering me.”

Kaia didn’t look back at Alden. She turned and walked off in the opposite direction.

Alden stared after her, feeling lost. He glanced down at the dress in his hand and then tossed it into the nearest trash can without
