“What? That can’t be right.” Kaia forced a chuckle. “She’s drunk, Lucien. Don’t take anything she said seriously.”

Lucien shot her a look. “But you know what they say—drunk words are sober thoughts.”

Kaia fell silent, unable to argue with that.

Thankfully, the painfully awkward ride soon came to an end. Once they arrived, Kaia helped Kayla into bed, then fetched a warm towel to wipe her face. After a few sleepy grumbles, Kayla finally dozed off.

Kaia poured some hot lemon water into a thermos and left it by the bedside, along with a handwritten note.

Still, even after getting back into the car, she felt unsettled.

“Lucien… can I stay over with her tonight? Just to make sure she’s okay?”

Lucien didn’t even miss a beat. “Absolutely not.”

Then, seeing her face fall, he softened his tone. “Don’t worry, Someone will be there to look after her soon.”

“Who?”

Lucien gave her a pointed look, lips twitching. “The big, bad guy himself.”

Kaia blinked. “You mean Calvin?”

By the time Calvin arrived at Kayla’s place and hit play, his expression turned stormy.

The next morning, Kaia called Kayla right on time, still worried about her.

Kayla answered groggily, her voice hoarse. “Kaia…”

“Are you okay? Did you drink the honey water I left on the bedside table?” Kaia asked gently.

Kayla groaned. “You brought me home last night, didn’t you? Ugh… sorry for the trouble, Kaia. I owe you a meal next time I’m functional, Ab-!”

Kaia sat up straighter. “Kayla?”
