The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1742

Andrew had unearthed these clues, so he likely uncovered the real location of the IP address.

However, he omitted this from the announcement.

After a brief silence, I responded, “Andrew is the deputy leader of the witch clan.

He surely has his reasons for withholding that information.

”

I understood the burdens of his position well and admired how swiftly he managed this issue.

Caleb’s expression soured instantly, and his voice brimmed with displeasure.

“Debra, you’re still defending Andrew! That’s not fair!”

Frustrated, he turned his head away, refusing to face me.

Noticing Caleb’s distress, Ivy grew anxious and whispered, “Honey, how can you stand to see Caleb so upset over Andrew? Now that you two have made up, why not tell him your engagement to Andrew is just a pretense?”

I bit my lip and responded distractedly, “The timing isn’t right yet.

”

“When is the right time? You only love Caleb! Why don’t you just tell him that?” Ivy was practically pleading with me, her voice

illed with urgency.

I remained silent for a moment, then replied, “You don’t get it, Ivy.

It’s not just about that.

Seeing Caleb upset or angry because of Andrew does hurt me, but I haven’t truly come to terms with accepting Caleb yet.

”

Ivy seemed perplexed by my words, her determination unwavering.

“But he loves you, and deep down, you love him too! Honey, if there’s mutual love, what’s stopping you from accepting him? He is your only mate!”

I exhaled deeply and countered, “You’re overlooking the fact that Caleb wronged me first.

I can’t just pretend nothing happened or just forgive and forget.

And I definitely can’t return to the Thorn Edge Pack with him unless he resolves the issues with Alexandria properly.

”

As these thoughts weighed on me, my mood soured.

Despite Caleb’s current anger, which stemmed from a misunderstanding about Andrew, I found no desire to clear things up.

Reflecting on Caleb’s past actions that hurt me, Ivy suddenly fell silent.

Caleb’s POV:

I was seething with anger, primarily because Debra constantly stood up for Andrew.

It baffled me.

Andrew was petrified of the witch clan leader and didn’t dare to reveal that the IP address was traced back to the leader’s manor.

He was undeniably a coward.

Yet, Debra defended him time and again.

Why?

If I were in his shoes, I wouldn’t have hesitated.

And really, when weighed against my mate, the witch clan leader seemed insignificant.

I wouldn’t have flinched at the prospect of taking on the entire witch clan!

My anger grew to the point where I couldn’t even bear to look at her.

I wanted her to come and soothe me, but she remained silent for too long.

Feeling helpless, I stole a glance at her.

Her expression was even darker than mine.

Why was she mad?

Was it because I opposed Andrew?

I had every reason to! How could she be upset about that?

My anger intensified; I wasn’t ready to back down this time.
