The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1788

Desperation contorted her features.

“It’s that Debra, isn’t it?” she shrieked, her voice laced with jealousy.

“A half-blood trying to steal you away! I’ll kill her!”

My face hardened at the murderous glint in her eyes.

With a growl, I kicked her back.

“Shut up! Another word and I will kill you.

”

Andrew’s POV:

Shirley’s gaze was fraught with fear, mingling confusion and reluctance in her eyes.

She seemed to want to question why I had struck her, but fear kept her silent.

Revulsion surged through me at the mere thought of looking at her again.

In my frustration, I yelled at Addy, “Why are you still standing there? Do you want to watch her lose her mind? Go get a doctor and give her a tranquilizer, now!”

Snapped back to reality, Addy quickly went to fetch the doctor.

Shortly after, the doctor arrived and administered an injection to Shirley.

The drug’s effect was swift.

Shirley’s eyes grew heavy, and soon she was asleep.

Silence reclaimed the ward.

Once assured that Shirley was deep in slumber, Addy turned to me and explained, “Andrew, please, hold

back your anger.

Shirley’s outburst was due to the shock of her disfigurement; she’s overly emotional right now.

She didn’t mean the nonsense she was spouting.

Please, she didn’t intend any harm towards Debra.

”

I scoffed dismissively, “Whether Shirley bears any malice towards Debra or not, she remains the pampered daughter of the leader.

Her dislike for Debra, potent as it might be, is impotent without aid from others, wouldn’t you agree?”

After making that remark, I glanced at Addy and the leader, a smirk playing on my lips.

The leader’s temper flared at my blatant disrespect.

She snapped, “Andrew, have you forgotten the rules? Continue this behavior, and I’ll have the elders deal with you!”

Her threats barely registered with me.

I retorted, “If you and the elders think I’m out of line, go ahead, punish me.

But remember, I brought Debra back to our witch clan.

It’s my duty to protect her, and I will make anyone who tries to harm her regret it.

”

The leader’s expression grew stormier, yet she refused to confess her attempt to poison Debra.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.

What happened to Debra is beyond me!”

“Is that so?” I said, eyeing the leader skeptically, not believing a word.

The leader responded composedly, “Absolutely.

Just find the real culprit.

Spare me your tantrums until you do.

You’re making a fool of yourself.

You’re hardly acting like a deputy leader should!”

Although I was convinced the leader was involved, I couldn’t justly accuse her without proof.

I took a moment to collect myself and then declared firmly, “If you claim innocence, I’ll take your word for it-for now.

Rest assured, I will uncover whoever tried to poison Debra and bring them to justice.

”

I walked away after leaving them behind, ignoring both the leader and Addy.

However, once outside the ward, I didn’t stray far.

Instead, I lingered by the door, eavesdropping on the conversation within.

Addy’s voice was tinged with urgency.

“What’s our next move? It looks like Andrew is determined to uncover who attacked Debra, no matter what it takes.

”

The leader inhaled sharply before issuing a grim command.

“You need to eliminate that man before Andrew gets to him.

We can’t risk him turning on us.

The dead reveal no secrets.

”
