Chapter 126: Eavesdropping

Alyssa asked him, deciding to skip the part about talking to Scott for now. She was more interested in seeing if Scott was telling the truth about her being a problem or not.

Elias gave her a confused look as angled his body more toward her.

"An issue? Why would you think that?" he asked her, narrowing his eyes slightly.

"Am I?" Alyssa asked, pushing for him to answer her question first. She didn't want him to just dodge around it.

Elias held her gaze for a few moments before finally speaking.

"You're not an issue," he told her.

Alyssa didn't say anything at first, wondering if he was actually telling her the truth or not. She hoped that he wasn't lying to her.

There was already a lot of drama surrounding them. She didn't also want it in their relationship when it came to the two of them.

"Okay," she said. "You would tell me if I became one or if your family said that about me, right?"
