Alyssa bit her lip, her chest heaving with a surge of raw hurt, feeling utterly wronged.

“You knew I love George, and you still married his dad!” she cried, her voice trembling with accusation. “What kind of

mother does that?”

Elena’s face remained calm, not a flicker of guilt in her eyes. “Alyssa, George isn’t good enough for you. He’s not who you think he is–you two aren’t right for each other.”

“Not right?” Alyssa scoffed, stamping her foot in frustration. “How would you know? I loved him, and you knew it! Why couldn’t you just pick someone else? You love getting married so much, changing a husband must be a breeze for you!”

A sharp crack echoed as Elena’s hand met Alyssa’s cheek, the slap ringing in the air.

Regret flashed across Elena’s face, her heart aching for her daughter.

“Alyssa, I told you long ago you weren’t a match,” she said, her voice softer now, pleading. “Do you think I’d lie to you? If you two were meant to be, or if he had any real feelings for you, why didn’t you end up together after I divorced his father?”

“I’ve made up my mind,” she declared, her tone fierce with resolve. “I’m marrying Landon, whether you approve or not!”

With that, Alyssa flung open the door, wiped her tears with a defiant swipe, and stormed downstairs.

Her eyes red and glistening, she planted herself in front of Landon, her voice quivering but firm. “You really want to marry me?”

Landon’s eyes flickered with a spark of hope, his response unwavering. “Absolutely.”

“Then I’m in,” Alyssa said, her words edged with a steely determination. “Let’s get married.”

Landon’s heart soared, though he fought to keep his grin in check. “For real?”

“For real,” Alyssa confirmed with a nod, her voice resolute.

If her mother didn’t want this, then that was exactly what she’d do.

She’d marry Landon just to prove a point.
