Desmond chuckled. “Relax. Lucien’s never shown a woman any real affection before. You saw the way he was grinning today like it didn’t cost him a dime. He’s obviously crazy about his little bride. She’s seven years younger than him, you know?”

“Nothing. Didn’t say anything.”

“I should leave a gift before I go,” Malcolm said, rising from his seat. “It’d feel wrong to just walk out without leaving anything.”
