The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1537

Shirley, however, didn’t seem to understand her mother’s intentions.

She was almost furious, saying, “I don’t care! Mom, she’s so mean, she doesn’t respect me at all, and she’s too close to Andrew.

I have to teach her a lesson today!”

With those words, Shirley started gathering her power again.

Again?

I quickly prepared to defend myself if necessary.

Andrew stepped in front of me just in time.

Ignoring everything, Shirley was about to attack me when suddenly, Veronica scolded her sternly.

“That’s enough, Shirley! Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough?”

Her serious tone filled the hall.

Veronica looked at Shirley with a mix of disappointment and anger.

“You’ve turned this banquet into a joke.

Have you forgotten what you’re supposed to do tonight? With such recklessness, do you plan to ruin everything?”

Shirley stopped moving instantly, and her magic disappeared.

Suddenly, Shirley’s expression changed, becoming somewhat shy.

Her lips tightened slightly, and a faint blush spread across her cheeks.

She glanced at Andrew.

But when she looked at me, her arrogance returned.

“Debra, you should consider yourself lucky!” Shirley said with a hint of arrogance.

“Today, I’ll be generous and let you off.

But soon, you won’t have any chance to get close to Andrew again.

”

Debra’s POV:

I was confused.

What did Shirley mean by I wouldn’t have any chance to get close to Andrew again?

I turned and cast a questioning gaze on Andrew.

That was when I saw that he had a grim look.

His usual polite smile was gone from his face.

He looked lost in thought.

This confused me even more.

Something must have happened to elicit Shirley’s comment and Andrew’s downcast demeanor.

Unsure of what was going on, I asked softly, “What’s wrong, Mr.

Pierce? You look upset.

Did something happen?”

My voice seemed to snap Andrew out of his internal reverie.

His polite smile returned, and he said, “I’m fine, Debra.

There’s nothing to worry about.

”

I pursed my lips doubtfully.
