Chapter 270 Lucien’s First Love

Frank rubbed his nose, playing along with the charade. “Mr. Graves, Mr. Miller just mentioned they’re short on seats. He’s hoping Ms. Domont can ride with us.”

Lucien’s eyes crinkled, his long lashes fluttering with a hint of mischief. “Oh, I see. The buses just left. Guess you’ll have to hop in our car, Ms. Domont.”

Kaia forced a tight–lipped smile, and the second she slid into the car, her fingers found Lucien’s waist, giving it a sharp pinch.

Frank turned back with a grin. “Mrs. Graves, Mr. Graves made it clear you don’t want your relationship out in the open, so we’ll stick to formalities. Hope you don’t mind.”

Kaia’s cheeks flushed, and she managed an awkward laugh. “No worries at all, Mr. Gallagher. That’s perfectly fine.”

She shot Lucien a glare that could’ve scorched the upholstery.

This guy spills everything!

Chris, ever considerate, raised the partition between the front and back seats.

The moment it clicked shut, Kaia grabbed Lucien’s cheek, her voice a fierce whisper only he could hear. “You’re such a pain!”

Lucien leaned in, stealing a quick kiss. “And you smell divine.”

Kaia, worried he’d get carried away, grabbed his hands.

“Stop it. There are people around.”

Lucien relented with a chuckle.

“Alright, alright. Get some rest. It’s a two–hour drive.”

Kaia reclined her seat, draping Lucien’s tailored suit jacket over herself like a blanket, and dozed off for the ride.

As they neared the campsite, Frank’s gentle voice roused her.

Kaia rubbed her eyes, handed the rumpled jacket back to Lucien, and stretched with a lazy yawn.

Lucien glanced at the creased suit, one eyebrow arched.

When Kaia stepped out, she realized they were the last to arrive.

Vanessa waved frantically from the law firm’s group.

Kaia jogged over.

“Kaia, are you okay? Riding with Mr. Graves must’ve been terrifying!” Vanessa exclaimed, her eyes wide with sympathy. “Blame Mr. Miller for cheaping out on an extra van. They’ve got seven buses, and we’re stuck with seven measly shuttles.”
