Wedding My Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 20 She Had Been Burned Too?

Luna’s face turned completely pale. She shot up from her chair.

“No, that’s not what happened! Uncle Lucien, you've got it wrong!”

Lucien’s voice was deadly calm. “Watch the video first. Then we can talk about misunderstandings.”

Everyone's eyes were fixed on his phone screen.

A woman's shrill voice pierced the air, followed by the hurling of a full cup of steaming coffee straight at Kaia’'s

chest.

Anyone with eyes could see it-Kimberly and Luna started the whole thing.

Of course, Lucien had conveniently cut out the part where Kaia retaliated.

Lucien curved his lips in a lazy smile, but it felt super threatening. “So Luna, you didn’t bother telling Alden that

you threw the first punch?”

Alden’s heart clenched at his words.

Kaia had been burned too?

Alden thought about seeing her at the office earlier. Her neck looked kinda red, but he just gave it a quick look

and didn’t think much about it.

If that was really the case, why didn’t she say anything?

“Lucien, Luna didn’t throw anything in this video. It was Kaia’s sister who threw the coffee,” Joanne said with an

awkward laugh, trying to protect Luna.

She saw how Allen’s face got all dark after Lucien finished talking. She didn’t want Allen blaming Luna.

Even though Luna was adopted, they raised her with love and care. They only sent her away after Allen

witnessed that incident

years ago.

Alden’s brow furrowed deeply as he spoke up, “Uncle Lucien, Kimberly has never gotten along with Kaia. Luna

just got caught in the middle of their . Don’t you think you're being too

harsh on her?”

Lucien’s questioning tone triggered an inexplicable irritation within him.

So that was why Kaia didn’t tell me-she went running to Uncle Lucien instead!

Alden couldn't stand seeing her act so self-righteous. It really got under his skin.

Lucien’s face dropped as he hit Alden with a meaningful look. Alden’s heart skipped a beat.

Lucien kept going, “Alden, after seeing that video, shouldn't you be worried about your fiancée first?”.

Alden froze up. “I...”

Zane turned to Alden and cut him dead. “Enough, Alden! You handled this all wrong. Kaia is your fiancée-she’ll

be your wife in two weeks. How could you be this heartless?

“If Lucien hadn't told you today, who knows how long you would've stayed in the dark about this! Tomorrow,

you're inviting Kaia over for dinner. You and Luna are both going to apologize to her!”

Alden’s voice shot up in protest. “Dad, why?”

Allen, who had been silent up until now, slammed his hand down on the dining table. “Because she’s going to be

your wife!”

Alden’s face turned white, then flushed red, and Luna looked just as mortified.

After what Kaia had said to her today, the thought of meeting her again made her stomach turn.

And on top of that, she needed to apologize to Kaia.

Luna’s fingernails dug into her palms, her lips drained of all color.

Alden saw it and his heart hurt for her all over again.

Joanne knew how Alden could be and worried he'd make Allen

even madder, so she gave him a look that said ‘watch it." “Alden, just listen to your dad.”

Alden took a deep breath and reluctantly said, “Fine. | understand.”

With that, the storm gradually subsided.

Allen snorted, “Alden, aren’t you going to thank your uncle? If it weren't for him, I'd like to see how you'd handle

this mess!”

Alden felt frustrated. He pressed his lips tight and forced it out, “Thanks, Uncle Lucien.”

Lucien took a slow sip of his coffee. “Don’t bother. An insincere thank you is worthless anyway.”

He smirked, “I've been gone five years. Looks like sthings really have changed from how they were back

then.”

Then Lucien just got up and walked upstairs. Allen huffed and

He followed them upstairs, shaking his head.

Joanne, worried that her son wasn’t taking this seriously enough, went to call Kaia herself.

Alden looked down at Luna with gentle eyes. “Luna, I'm sorry you had to go through that.”

Luna shook her head softly. “Alden, | got you in trouble again.”

“Of course!” Alden smiled warmly. “Someone as wonderful as Luna deserves to be seen and loved by everyone.”

Back in his bedroom, Alden finally calmed down enough to think about Kaia’s burn.

He hesitated for a long moment before sending her a message: [How's the burn on your neck? Is it okay?]

But when he looked at his phone, he saw an unfamiliar red exclamation mark with the words:

[Message sent but rejected by the recipient.]
