Chapter 6 Being Caught off Guard

Soon, Alyssa got her mobile phone and called Ella Lloyd, her classmate and bestie since childhood.

Before long, the call was answered.

"Ella, could you please send me my recent check-in records in the lab and library? And can you make it in five minutes? Three minutes will do? That's even better. I'll be waiting. Thank you very much!"

She hung up, lifted the hem of the wedding dress, and walked over to her grandfather. "Grandpa, can you be my witness to prove that every time my classes are over, your subordinates will pick me up from campus and take me back home and that I seldom go out? Even if I do, there will be bodyguards following me."

Grandpa Graham looked into his granddaughter's bright eyes and then glanced at Ryan and Mrs. Hunter standing in the doorway, nodding. "I'm more than willing to be your witness."

Seeing Grandpa nod, Alyssa leaned in closer to him and gave him a hug.

Being hugged, Grandpa Graham revealed a surprised and upset look in his eyes.

Alyssa initially had no idea that the family tied her up to take her to the hotel for a wedding. Thus, the older man thought she would resent them for that.

However, she did not. Instead, she even embraced him.

Grandpa Graham wondered if there was something wrong with his granddaughter and that she was scheming to escape and would do something more out of the line.

Feeling worried, Grandpa Graham lifted his head to see Alyssa stepping back.

Alyssa retreated back to the stage in the center of the auditorium and exchanged several words with the staff from the wedding planning company. Soon, her check-in records on campus appeared on the screen.

She then said into the microphone in a firm tone, "Ryan, look at how busy I have been. Do you still think I have time to be concerned with love and romance? I'm either on campus, studying, or be protected by my grandfather. You said I wanted to elope with you, how the hell did I even have the chance to see you?"

At the woman's words, those guests on the scene turned to look at Ryan.

It was clear to them who was lying.

Ryan replied immediately, "Alyssa, I know you must have been threatened. By your family, perhaps? Did you tell your family about your pregnancy? I guess not. That's alright, I will tell them. Alyssa is now pregnant with my child."

"Child?"

Alyssa frowned.

Leon froze and looked at Alyssa's frown, wondering if she was really pregnant.

But they had just had sex in the dressing room, and she was a virgin before they made love.

Before Leon could think further, Alyssa's voice sounded again, "Indeed, I've lost my virginity."

At these words, the buzzing grew louder.

"Gee, Alyssa is going to marry Mr. Hunter but cuckolds him on the day of the wedding?"

"What a huge scandal!"

Alyssa turned her head to look at Leon and said loudly, "Leon!"

Leon's gaze fell on Alyssa, and the look in his cold eyes gradually became warmer.

Alyssa walked over to the man and looked up at him who was half a head taller than her. "I've surrendered myself to you and now want to marry you. Will you marry me?"

Leon stared at the petite, delicate girl in silence.

From his perspective, it should be his turn to make a proposal.

Why was Alyssa in such a hurry to steal his lines?

The man's silence fluttered Alyssa. Was Leon not going to nod his head?

She could not care so much and looked at Leon, saying in an injured tone, "Listen, you must marry me. End of discussion!"

With that, she stood on her tiptoes and moved over to kiss Leon.

Being kissed in public, the man stiffened all over.

She kissed him. Did it mean that she was genuinely ready to marry him?

If what happened in the dressing room was not out of Alyssa's idea, the kissing was a totally active behavior.

Leon looked into Alyssa's eyes. The woman's series of reactions caught him off guard.
