Lucien stepped out of the kitchen. “Kaia, this is Kevin Harrison, a senior from my study–abroad days. He’s back in town, so I invited him for dinner.”

Kaia paused. It was the first time Lucien had brought a friend home since their marriage. So Kevin must be someone special to him.

Smiling at Kevin, she said, “Mr. Harrison, please make yourself at home. I’ll just pop upstairs to put some things away.”

“Go ahead,” Kevin replied.

Once Kaia was upstairs, Kevin leaned toward Lucien with a teasing grin.

Lucien shot him a sideways glance. “Don’t hold back later. Use your lawyerly expertise to cheer her up. Got it?”

Kevin, a renowned attorney and legal consultant for Graves Group’s overseas branch, had been roped into being Kaia’s impromptu therapist.

He grimaced. “Got it, Your Highness.”

At the dinner table, Kaia picked up the ladle. “Mr. Harrison, let me serve you some soup.”

“No, no, I’ll do it,” Kevin said, glancing at Lucien. “I don’t dare trouble you. Someone’s glare is about to tear me apart.”

Kaia followed his gaze to Lucien, who was calmly peeling shrimp, his expression unruffled.
