Chapter 190 Lucien Meeting Tobias

Kaia could still feel the sting of last night. She wanted to bite Lucien hard.

No one knew how much concealer she had layered on this morning just to cover the marks he left.

After last night’s so–called “reward“, she felt zero guilt about bossing him around today.

Ophelia’s face turned a stunning shade of mottled rage, her fingers curling into themselves.

The elevator let out a beep. Someone inside snapped, “Are you coming or not? Don’t hold the doors.”

Ophelia stepped out awkwardly, nearly tripping, and then hurried after Kaia, unwilling to miss whatever was about to unfold.
