The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1515

Occasionally, I remembered times spent with Debra, and how I gradually grew indifferent after she vanished.

I didn’t want to admit how quickly my feelings had changed in these past days.

Yet, the undeniable truth was that I hadn’t dreamt of her until last night.

In that dream, I saw her being pulled into the rift with a child that might have been ours.

My response upon waking was starkly different from my feelings in the dream, clarifying the distinction between loving and not loving.

In the dream, I loved her; I was heartbroken and felt suffocated.

I desperately wanted to save her, even at the cost of my own life.

But what about the me who woke from that dream? Calm, rational, as if the person I had dreamt

about was just a stranger unrelated to me.

I seldom felt such strong guilt.

As Carlos had pointed out, Debra had been incredibly kind to me.

She wouldn’t have left the witches that day we were repairing the rift if it hadn’t been to save me.

Consequently, she had to sacrifice herself to prevent the rift from consuming more people.

She had saved me from numerous predicaments, like at the hospital and in the foggy forest.

But what had I done in return?

After Debra disappeared, my love for her gradually faded until only indifference remained.

How had I become so heartless?

Damien muttered, “You are such a jerk.

”

I found myself unable to defend my actions.

When Carlos handed me the papers to sign, my mind was all over the place.

I ended up scribbling Debra’s name where mine should’ve been.

With a frustrated sigh, I quickly corrected the blunder.

My feelings for her had faded, but my hand seemed to have a mind of its own, penning her name as if it still held some significance.

It was quite absurd.

Carlos knew me quite well.

He had noticed something was off even before I uttered a word and asked with concern, “Caleb, what was going on with you?”

Too embarrassed to reveal the truth, I made up an excuse.

“My injury is bothering me, so I’m having trouble focusing.

”

Carlos didn’t question my excuse and responded with concern, “Then you should rest.

Stop working for now.

You can get back to it once you’re healed.

There’s no rush.

”

I quickly dismissed his suggestion, explaining, “Since Debra vanished, I’ve been swamped with work.

How could I have time to rest? Also, there’s been a recent vampire incident.

I must tackle it ASAP, or we might have another mishap on our hands.

”

Carlos sighed deeply, the fatigue evident in the dark circles under his eyes.

“You’re right.

I’ve been just as swamped with work, staying late every night.

Sally has been complaining.

I wish I could help you more, but I just can’t…”

Mid-sentence, he seemed to have an idea.

His eyes brightened as he suggested, “Caleb, how about hiring a secretary? I can’t lend a hand, but your secretary can.

Having one would make things a whole lot easier for you to manage.

”

I paused for a second.

It was indeed a good idea.
