Chapter 599

• That night, when Lucien came up to bed, it was quite late. He had been sharing anecdotes with his beloved sister, I thought nastily.
• Bree had wanted to have drinks after dinner and had led the way to the little room we used for visitors and insisted that Lucien join her and Stan.
• Claude had murmured his excuses and left with Karina, rolling his eyes in her direction. Ria had opted to leave too, as had Tara. Lou and Dom had to head back to University the next morning so they had called it a night quite early.
