Is he okay? Why did he take such a huge risk?
Kaia forced a smile.

“What a pity. If you'd graduated earlier, maybe you could've defended Luna-maybe even gotten her sentence
reduced.
“Guess it's all your fault for being useless. If you'd been faster, she wouldn't have been bullied by me, right?”
She was deliberately goading him.
“She grew up pampered in the Graves family. Now she’s sleeping on a cold iron bed. You think she dreams of
you?”
Jerry's breath caught. He killed the engine, flung open the back door, and yanked Kaia up by the hair.
“Kaia, say one more word and I'll kill you right now.”
Kaia let out a soft laugh.-
“No, you won't. You'll dragto your little safe house and useto threaten my honey. You wouldn't waste the
chance to make him watchdie slow, would you, Jerry?”
The truth was, Jerry didn’t want her to die quickly. He wanted Lucien to watch every moment.

He wasn’t foolish enough to think Lucien would trade Luna’s freedom for Kaia’s life-no, Jerry planned to be the
executioner himself.
By the tLuna finished her five-year sentence, no one would ever hurt her again.
“Stop trying to bait me. You're doomed already. Keep it up, and you'll just die faster.”
His hand clamped around her throat. Kaia gasped for air.
“Scared now? You should've been scared the moment you got in the car. Be a good girl, and I'll make it quick-"
A dull thud cut him off. Jerry jerked forward, struck from behind.
Through the haze of her ragged breathing, Kaia saw Lucien’s face-cold, focused, lethal./
She smiled faintly. He'd come.
Jerry let out a guttural groan as pain exploded in his back.

His grip on Kaia loosened, and he spun around-only to lock eyes with Lucien’s fury, cold and unyielding.
Lucien yanked him out of the car. At five-ten, Jerry wasn’t small,

In a single, brutal motion, Lucien dragged him several feet and slammed him to the ground.
Then he was back at Kaia’s side, pulling her into his arms. His voice shook, the adrenaline bleeding into relief.
“Honey, it’s over. I'm here. I'm sorry | was late.”
Kaia’s lips curved faintly, her voice barely above a whisper.
“I knew you'd come. | always knew.”
After checking that she had no obvious wounds except a bruise on her forehead, Lucien’s eyes darkened with
anger. “Did he hit you?”
Before Kaia could answer, Lucien strode towards Jerry.
He stepped on Jerry's hand and ground it hard, as if trying to crush it.
A dagger rolled out of Jerry's pocket.
Lucien picked it up with a sneer. “Honey, where do you think | can stab him and it'll count as self-defense?”
Kaia walked over slowly, protecting her belly. “The ribs and the thighs.”

Without hesitation, Lucien stabbed Jerry in the ribs, then quickly pulled out the dagger and plunged it into his
thigh.
The blood quickly soaked through Jerry's clothes. Kaia placed a hand on Lucien’s shoulder. “That's enough,
honey.”
She didn’t want Lucien’s hands to get dirty.
The fury in Lucien’s eyes subsided a bit. Just then, the following cars caught up, including a police car.
Lucien took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his hands.
The moment the tension left Kaia’s body, her vision went black,
and she fainted.
“Honey!”

Kaia jolted awake. Her hands instinctively went to her belly as she called out, “Lucien!”
“I'm here, honey.” His eyes were bloodshot from a sleepless night.
“Lucien, are our babies okay?” This was the first thing on Kaia’s mind upon waking up.

This incident had nearly scared the life out of him.
“Vanessa!” Kaia pushed him away slightly and balled her fists tightly. “What about Vanessa? Where is she?”
Lucien’s voice softened, steadying her trembling breaths.
“Vanessa's safe. He drugged her and locked her in a warehouse. She’s weak, but she’s in the hospital now. She
woke up before you did.

If Kaia hadn't been there that day, Lucien might really have
killed him.
Kaia reassured him, “It’s okay. He'll be punished by the law.”
Lucien averted his gaze, concealing the fury that burned in his eyes. “Yeah, no need to worry. How about you
take a month off and just rest at home?”
Understanding his concern, Kaia gave a gentle nod. “Okay.”

Vanessa, supported by a nurse, approached as soon as she learned Kaia was awake. Tears streamed down her
face as she
threw her arms around Kaia.
“Kaia, I'm so relieved you're okay! You really hadworried!”
Kaia gently rubbed Vanessa's back, soothing her.
“Shh, it's okay. We're both alive-that’s what matters.”
Vanessa wiped her tears and confessed, “God, | feel so stupid. That day, | showed up at his place like a lovesick
