Chapter 210 A Proposal at the Door

Alyssa, who had just cracked open her bedroom door, overheard Landon’s bold declaration from downstairs. “Yesterday, Alyssa and I were together, so I came to propose as soon as I could.”

“Sir Graves, our families have always been close, and I think this is a great match,” he continued, his tone earnest. “What do you think of me?”

Lucien’s lips twitched, a silent curse forming in his mind.

When did Landon get so shameless?

He suddenly felt like he’d never truly known his friend.

Alyssa stormed down the stairs, her footsteps thundering. “Landon, have you lost your mind? When were we ever ‘together‘? Stop spouting nonsense!”

“Grandpa, don’t listen to him!” she huffed, her face flushed with indignation. “He’s clearly unhinged. I’m calling the psych ward to pick him up!”

Landon’s expression turned pitiful, his lips pursed as if wounded. “Alyssa, last night you… you did things to me. Are you saying you won’t take responsibility?”

Alyssa’s eyes widened, sparks of fury flashing in them. “Landon!” she snapped, her voice sharp enough to cut glass.

Landon knew the stakes. If he wanted to win her over, he had to go all in.

He’d watched Lucien chase Kaia, learning one key lesson: shamelessness was the secret to winning a wife. So he doubled down. “Last night was my first time, Alyssa. You’ve got to take responsibility for me.”

Kaia, standing nearby, watched the scene unfold with wide–eyed astonishment.

What a day. Everyone is losing it.
