In the end, Alyssa’s crush on George fizzled out without ever taking off.

Of course, Alyssa carried sregrets.

But deep down, she knew George didn’t feel the same. If he did, he wouldn't have stayed silent after she'd

dropped such obvious hints.

Still, back then, she couldn't help but resent her mother a little.

After hearing Alyssa’s story, Kaia let out a soft sigh.

“Alyssa, that’s all in the past now.”

Alyssa gave a wry smile. True, it was behind her now.

“But... do you love Landon?” she asked, her voice filled with a quiet curiosity.

Their families had arranged their marriage, bound together by their daughter.

Alyssa wasn't sure if it was love, but she knew she relied

heavily on Landon.

“I don’t know,” she admitted with a thoughtful look. “But he’s good to me. Better than | ever expected. He dotes

on Dolly- spends even more twith her than | do.”

Anyone who visited Alyssa’s hcouldn't help but praise Landon as a devoted family man.

Alyssa had indeed married a good guy.

“I haven't really thought too hard about the whole ‘love or don’t love’ thing,” she continued.

As she spoke, the bedroom door behind her clicked shut softly.

“But... | think | probably do love him,” Alyssa said, her voice gentle as she smiled softly.

Kaia grinned warmly. “Alright, you got this.”

After hanging up, Alyssa went downstairs for lunch. Dolly was already napping.

“Where's Landon?” she asked the housekeeper.

“Mr. Collins is out. Said he won't be back for dinner.”

Alyssa froze. “He's got a work thing?”

But Landon hadn’t mentioned anything. This was the first tsince she'd given birth that he’d been out for a

work event in the evening.

It felt strange-unsettling.

“Okay, got it,” she replied, though a sense of unease lingered.

Lucien really hadn't wanted to come, but Wiley insisted it was a must, so he reluctantly dragged himself along.

As soon as he stepped into the private room, his brow furrowed. His eyes landed on a thoroughly drunk Landon,

a row of empty bottles scattered at his feet.

“What's this? Alyssa dump you or something?” Lucien asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Landon flinched as if Lucien had hit a nerve. “Alyssa, am | just a stand-in to you?”

He stared at Lucien with desperate eyes. “Tell me, am | a stand-in or not?!”

Lucien rolled his eyes.

He had no patience for a drunk’s ramblings. Turning to Wiley, he asked, “What's going on?”

Wiley shrugged. “No clue. He was already half-tanked when

| got here, muttering that sline over and over. Like sbitter old bachelor.”

“Alyssa, you're so cruel. I'm so good to you. How could | be a stand-in?” Landon slurred, his words barely

intelligible.

“Alyssa, what's so great about that guy? He's older than not as handsome, and shorter too. Alyssa, stop liking

him. Likeinstead, okay?”

me,

Lucien glanced at his watch. It was already nine. Normally,

Landon would be hwith Alyssa by now.

Pulling out his phone, Lucien dialed Alyssa.

She'd just gotten Dolly to sleep and was already annoyed. Landon had promised he’d skip work events during

this time, but tonight, he’d broken his word.

“Hey, Uncle Lucien, callingthis late? What's up?” Alyssa answered, her voice laced with frustration.

“Hold on, I've got something for you to hear.”

Alyssa sounded puzzled.

Then, a familiar voice cthrough the phone—slurred and

woozy.

“Alyssa, you're so cruel, treatinglike a stand-in!

“Alyssa, do you even like me? If not, why'd you marry me?

“Alyssa! Forget that old guy!

“Alyssa, like me. | really, really like you.

“We've got a daughter together. How can you still think about another man? Alyssa, you're breaking my heart!”

Alyssa froze, her face flushing with embarrassment.

“You hear that?” Lucien’s tone was flat, almost indifferent.

“Yeah,” Alyssa mumbled, her voice tight. She wished she hadn't.

Oh my god. Couldn’t Landon just save his drunken outbursts for home?

Why did he have to lose it in front of Uncle Lucien?

Of course, Alyssa knew that sometimes guys needed stender loving care.

“Got it, Uncle Lucien.”

Kaia glanced at Lucien when he walked in at nine-thirty, surprised.

“I thought you'd be hby ten.”

Lucien shrugged off his jacket. “I was, but | took a shortcut.”

The driver half-dragged Landon back home.

Alyssa wrinkled her nose at the reek of alcohol and kicked him

out of their bedroom.
