Gwen was trembling with rage as she read through the evidence presented by the client.

Kaia took a look herself. That bastard had even targeted girls as young as sixteen.

Which meant Gwen’s daughter…

“Kaia, would you take this case for me?” Gwen asked softly. “I don’t want anyone else to know about this.”

Kaia understood her concerns. “But I’ve never handled a criminal defense case before.”

“That’s okay. I’ll assist you.”

Once Kaia agreed, Gwen rushed off to her daughter’s university.

She probably wanted her to see the truth for herself.

Kaia couldn’t shake the heavy feeling in her chest.

When Lucien got home, he immediately sensed something was off.

“Lucien,” she said suddenly, “let’s have a son.”

Lucien listened as she rambled, torn between amusement and

concern.

“Babe, people come in all kinds. Whether we have a boy or a girl, they’ll face challenges of their own. But our kid’s gonna grow up with us. Sure, they might rebel a little, but they’re not going off the rails like that.

“Don’t worry. If anyone ever lays a hand on our daughter, I’ll make sure he doesn’t walk away alive.”

Kaia stared at him. “You can be intense, but don’t break the law. I’m not trying to defend you in court one day.”

Lucien had his own way of dealing with anxiety–made her too tired to overthink.

Kaia had no idea where he learned so many techniques, or why they all seemed to work.

Right before she passed out in a daze, she squinted at his waist and thought to herself.

He didn’t secretly take something, did he?

The next day, Lucien looked fresh as ever, while Kaia felt like she’d been completely drained.

“Babe, isn’t your period usually on the 15th?”

Kaia blinked. “Yeah, I think so. Today’s the 13th. Still a couple of

days.”

Lucien made a mental note. He was secretly hoping the 15th would come and go with no sign of it.

But unfortunately, that very night, her period arrived early.

Oddly enough, Kaia felt a little relieved.

“Let’s not stress, okay? Let it happen naturally.”

Lucien nodded. Yeah, maybe he was a little too eager.

Landon had teased him the other day, saying that by the time Lucien’s daughter was born, her daddy might already be in his forties.

Lucien was so annoyed that he ignored Landon for two days.

He was thirty–four now. Even if they had a baby soon, he’d be thirty–five or thirty–six by the time they were born.

And when his kid turned twenty–four, he’d be sixty…

Would they think I’m too old?

For the first time, Lucien felt genuine anxiety.

And Landon, having lit the fire, left it to burn.

But for the next three days, he kept getting “thoughtful” messages from Lucien.

Landon cleared all the notifications without reading them.

He would never read this nonsense.

Alyssa and Kaia had no idea their men were locked in a petty

cold war.

The next day, Kaia represented the victim in court.

The defendant seemed unfazed.

After a fierce back–and–forth in court, Kaia once again realized that raising daughters took twice the effort of raising sons.

She had to instill the right values from childhood and give them enough love. Only then would they grow up knowing not to fall for the first person who beckoned with a finger.

“Ma’am, please wait for the court’s decision.”

“Thank you, Ms. Domont. Do you think we’ll win?”

Kaia smiled. “Depends on how the judge sees it. We’ve submitted every piece of evidence we could, and that security footage works in our favor.

“Just try to relax. Maybe take your daughter somewhere nice for a few days. No matter what happens, help her start moving forward.”

The client wiped her tears. “We will. Thank you, Ms. Domont, and thank Ms. Dillon for us, too.”

Kaia didn’t know how things were going between Gwen and her daughter.

She didn’t feel right asking. It was a private matter, after all.

But for the first time, she really hoped to win a case. Maybe, if that punk actually got sentenced, Gwen’s daughter would finally open her eyes.

The past few weeks at the Graves Manor had been quiet.

Even Joanne had stopped throwing shade. Everything was peaceful.

Until one day, as Kaia passed the storage room, she overheard two maids gossiping.

“It’s a sin. Poor Nic. This illness came out of nowhere. He cried so hard his voice went hoarse. Broke my heart just listening.”

“I don’t get what Mrs. Luna Graves was thinking, taking such a tiny baby out on the balcony like that. Makes you wonder if the kid’s even hers.”

Kaia frowned.

Nic wasn’t Luna’s?

But she’d seen Luna pregnant. That belly couldn’t have been faked.

Besides, there were always people watching her.

Kaia pushed the thought aside.

But three days later, while sitting in a café, Kaia spotted Luna across the street, wearing a mask and arguing with a foreign

man.

She couldn’t make out Luna’s expression, but the man looked furious.

Eventually, Luna hailed a cab and sped off.

The man kicked a nearby trash can repeatedly, his face still contorted with rage.

Kaia narrowed her eyes and casually snapped a photo. Then, she texted Lucien.

[Babe, can you help me find out who this guy is?]
