My tone turned frosty.

“You may not have had another woman before, but now you do.

I’ll take care of the children; it won’t disrupt your affair with your new love.

“That’s not what I’m saying!” Caleb scrambled to explain.

“I’m just asking you to think about the kids.

With your memory loss, you’re not seeing clearly.

Rushing into decisions now might lead to regret once you remember everything.

Debra’s POV:

“This is my own business.

You don’t need to worry about it.

With that, I shrugged off Caleb’s hold and continued walking away.

But I had underestimated Caleb’s resolve.

Persistent as ever, he hurried after me, catching up within a few strides and seizing my hand again.

“Debra, please don’t go,” he implored, looking at me with a desperate sadness.

“Just listen to me one more time, okay? It’s not what you think.

It was the same old story.

I realized that this could be just the beginning.

If I naively chose to believe him again, such problems would probably keep recurring.

My heart swelled with annoyance, my thoughts scattered; I didn’t want to say anything, so I just turned away, trying to break free.

“Debra!” Seeing me pull away, Caleb grew even more distressed.

His eyes reddened, a clear unwillingness in his look, and his tone became firm.

“You have to stay today.

We need to sort this out.

His grip on my hand tightened, causing me discomfort.

“No, I’ve heard enough!”

I struggled again to break free from his grip, but it was no use.

The pain was unbearable.

It was all his fault, his betrayal.

Why was I the one suffering?

Just when I was feeling utterly wronged and on the verge of tears, a tall figure stepped in front of me, releasing me from Caleb’s grip and ushering me to safety.

Their shadows merged as the Light shifted.

The man in front of me was Andrew.

I stopped for a moment.

“Mr.

Wright.

” Andrew kept his cool, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor as he faced Caleb without a hint of fear, his smile unwavering.

“Please respect Debra’s decision.

She’s not an object.

She’s a person with her own will and rights.

Caleb shot him a fierce look, his voice sharp.

“Stay out of this! This is between Debra and me.

I’ve never treated her like an object, so back off!”

With that, he tried to reach for me again.
