Jude arrived just in time to catch that last part. “Who?”

“Ms. Graham, obviously,” Vanessa said. “She’s been trying to dig up dirt on Kaia’s husband for weeks. Now she’s acting smug because she thinks he drives a Lexus.”

Jude’s expression twitched.

Lucien… driving a Lexus? That doesn’t sound right.
