Wedding My Ex's Uncle Chapter 18 let's make it legal That formal " Mr. Graves " made Alden's temple throb with irritation . " Kaia , I'm ordering you to get to my office right now . " Kaia rolled her eyes . 17 min left " Mr. Graves , Mr. Warren Wright from our firm will be taking over all matters concerning your company . He's also a mid - level attorney with five years of experience on our team . I promise he'll take excellent care of your company . " " No way ! It has to be you , Kaia . I'm only giving you one chance here . If you keep stalling , I'm calling your boss directly. " Kaia tightened her grip on the phone . This was a crucial moment in her career , with the equity partner promotion on the line . She couldn't let Alden jeopardize everything she'd worked for . Her eyes darkened as she spoke , " I'll be there in thirty . Be ready . Don't keep me waiting . " But Alden stood her up . Again . When Kaia arrived at Alfly Entertainment precisely on time , his secretary Nora said to her , " Ms. Domont , Mr. Graves is in a 1/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal 17 min left meeting . Would you mind waiting in the conference room ? " Kaia drew in a deep breath . She was here on Vanguard business . Had to keep it professional . But damn , she wanted to kick that jerk's door down . Her eyes narrowed slightly . " Oh ? But Mr. Graves called me here urgently . I thought your company was about to go bankrupt or something . " Nora choked on her words and could only smile awkwardly . As she struggled to find the right explanation for Kaia , casual chatter from passing employees drifted in from outside . " Hey , did you guys see that ? Is the woman in Mr. Graves ' office his fiancée ? So sweet - Mr . Graves is making coffee for her himself ! " " Don't talk nonsense , that's Mr. Graves ' sister ! You new guys may not know this , but Mr. Graves is well - known for doting on his sister . " Kaia's hand clenching slightly . So that was why she'd been cooling her heels - he was busy entertaining Luna in his office ! 2/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal 17 min left She'd had enough . Brushing past Nora , she pushed open Alden's office door without waiting for permission . Alden was taken aback by the sudden intrusion . Just moments ago , he was on the couch , gently putting burn ointment on Luna . Nora immediately panicked . " Mr. Graves , Ms. Domont forced her way in . I tried to stop her , but I couldn't . " Alden glared at Kaia with obvious displeasure . " Fine , you can go now . Since Ms. Domont is already here , she might as well stay . " Indeed , the timing was perfect . With Luna watching , he could finally settle the score from yesterday . Kaia crossed her arms , wearing a mocking smile . " Sorry to interrupt your … bedroom time - oh wait , I mean bandaging time ! " She continued , " But I assume Mr. Graves didn't urgently summon me here just to watch you play nurse with your beloved sister . " 3/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal Her sarcastic jab hit its mark - both Alden's and Luna's expressions immediately darkened . 17 min left Luna said , " Kaia , you've got it all wrong . Mom just wanted me to bring Alden his lunch today . He was in that car accident two days ago , and she's worried about him getting better . I had no idea he was meeting with you … " Kaia nearly lost her lunch . Oh please . Playing the perfect little sister act ? Give me a break . " Luna , you don't need to explain yourself to her when you come to see me at the office , " Alden said coldly . " Actually , let's talk about you . " Alden's eyes turned ice - cold as he stared at Kaia . " I haven't settled yesterday's score with you yet ! Look at what you did - Luna almost got a blister from that burn ! You deliberately hurt my sister . Apologize to her right now ! " Kaia snorted and glanced at Luna's so - called injury - a tiny red mark no bigger than a fingernail , nothing compared to the marks on her neck . " Listen up , Mr. Graves . Quick Law 101 : assault charges ? Need second - degree injuries minimum . Better get that documented before it vanishes . " And yesterday ? Just a public disturbance , tops . But here's the 4/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal 17 min left thing - whoever starts trouble deserves what they get . If your precious Ms. Thorne and her bestie hadn't provoked me first , none of this would have happened . " So maybe you should tell your sweetheart to stay far away from me from now on ? " Both their faces darkened like storm clouds after she finished speaking . " Kaia Domont ! " Alden's handsome face turned icy . " You're really something ! Throwing hot water at Luna - what a vicious heart you have ! " A flash of satisfaction crossed Luna's eyes before she quickly put on her innocent act . " Kaia , I know you don't like me , but please don't be angry with Alden . I swear I'll never appear in front of you again … " " Swear ? You're quite fond of making promises you can't keep . " Kaia's laughter was ice - cold . " If you're actually serious , let's make it legal . Sign a contract stating that if you ever harass me again , everything you own - every single cent - becomes mine . " She turned to Alden with mock sincerity . " Would you like to sign one too ? Your shares would make excellent compensation for breach of contract . " 5/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal Alden and Luna stood there , stunned . 17 min left Alden snapped out of it first . " Kaia , is this how a high - class lady acts ? And why should we sign this kind of contract ? You haven't even made one yourself ! " Kaia blinked innocently . " Oh , I can sign it . I'd be more than happy to . " " Need me to refresh your memory ? I told you the other day , that I'd never marry you , and if I broke that promise , you'd never have any kids your whole life ! - I can put that in writing and sign it right now . " She sneered , " But do you have the guts to sign yours ? " Luna bit her lip , her face flushing red and white in turns . There was no way she could sign such an unreasonable contract . Alden ground his teeth so hard . How dare she ! What gives her the right ? Kaia let out a cold laugh and rolled her eyes . " Tsk , what a couple of cowards ! If you can't actually do it , don't talk big to me ! " " I'm done here ! " Kaia strode out with her head held high and shoulders back , 6/7 17:02 Chapter 18 let's make it legal leaving Nora completely stunned . 16 min left That's it ? Nothing else happened ? She should be walking out looking like a wilted flower or something . Did Mr. Graves really not yell at her ? Is he really that patient ? What Nora didn't know was that Alden didn't hold back because he wanted to - he just couldn't win an argument with her . 头头 头 * After Kaia left , Alden's office fell into dead silence . For a long moment , the only sound was the faint hum of the air conditioning . Finally , Alden let out a heavy breath . " Luna , don't let her get to you . She's always ready with a sharp comment . Don't worry , I won't let her walk all over you like that . This isn't over , " he declared firmly . With that , Alden dialed Tobias ' number . 7/7 Write your comment
