The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1714

Maybe he was deliberately avoiding the topic.

The smile playing on his lips vanished.

A sigh escaped him.

“Debra, I apologize.

There were some things I did wrong, but there were also a lot of misunderstandings.

I hope you can trust me again.

”

Misunderstanding?

The truth was staring me in the face.

How could these actions be mere misunderstandings? How could I trust him?

Frustration welled up.

I averted my gaze, lowering my eyes.

“That’s not what I need to hear right now.

”

Now that everything had unfolded, things needed to be addressed properly if we were to move forward.

Dismissing everything as misunderstandings wouldn’t suffice.

Caleb’s face turned grim.

“Debra, I’ll handle Alexandria before you return to the Thorn Edge Pack.

You won’t be bothered by her again,” he vowed solemnly.

“What exactly do you have in mind?” I asked with a hint of sarcasm.

The truth was, what happened with Alexandria still stung.

Caleb was my mate, but he had s@x with another woman while drunk.

It was a constant ache in my chest.

Caleb climbed back against the headboard, draping his arm around me.

“I’ll compensate Alexandria financially, fire her, and send her back to her hometown.

She won’t reappear in our lives.

Silence hung heavy between us.

It wasn’t that his solution was bad, but it felt final, lacking nuance.

After a thoughtful pause, I steered the conversation in a different direction.

“Remember, I promised to act as Andrew’s fiancee.

Leaving soon isn’t an option.

I trust you’ll handle everything well during this time.

”

A flicker of reluctance crossed Caleb’s face upon hearing about Andrew.

However, he was powerless to object.

After all, I’d already made a compromise by agreeing to return to the Thorn Edge Pack with him.

Shirley’s POV:

I was buzzing with excitement when I learned there was a scandal at Andrew’s manor.

It was barely a day after Debra and Andrew’s engagement, and already chaos had erupted.

Wasn’t this proof enough that she was nothing but trouble?

This was the perfect opportunity for me to teach Debra a lesson, to finally get her to leave Andrew and the witch clan for good.

With that in mind, I quickly got dressed and walked out, holding up the hem of my dress with a joyful stride.

But just as I reached the stairs, I ran into my mother and Addy.

My mother’s expression turned cold at the sight of me.

My heart skipped a beat as I approached her with caution.

“Mom…”
