The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 737

James’ face froze, and he awkwardly attempted a smile.

“I apologize for my hasty words before understanding the situation fully.

Miss Clarkson, kindly accompany us to our office.

”

Despite sensing an inexplicable hostility from him, I chose not to engage in an argument and simply nodded in agreement.

We walked to the office together.

Once inside, James piped up before anyone could speak.

“When will you release Jayla?”

Caleb arched an eyebrow, intentionally leaving James’ question unanswered as he shot back, “And why, exactly, should I release her?”

“That’s right.

Do you want her to continue wreaking havoc?” Carlos added.

James’ face darkened as he somberly objected, “Jayla didn’t harm anyone.

Sure, she panicked yesterday and fled, neglecting the children, but that doesn’t make her a danger to others.

You can’t just lock her up because she offended Debra.

”

Confusion began to cloud my mind.

Why was James so stubborn about defending Jayla? Truth be told, Jayla’s actions had already damaged the kindergarten’s reputation.

In most cases, the headmaster would have promptly dismissed her.

In a hushed voice, I probed, “Carlos, is there any connection between

Jayla and James?”

“Jayla is James’ niece,” he answered.

Ah, now it made sense.

It hit me like a lightning bolt.

That was why James treated me with such hostility when he arrived a moment ago.

Carlos leaned in, his voice barely a whisper, “You shouldn’t underestimate James.

He’s connected within the pack, not just as the headmaster of this kindergarten but also oversees numerous schools within Thorn Edge Pack.

His ancestor was one of the pack’s founding members, and even Caleb’s father shows him respect.

If James insists on protecting Jayla, we might not be able to administer severe punishment.

”

Nervousness began to pick at my nerves.

If Jayla was let off the hook, she’d be free to spread the word about what happened yesterday-exposing my carefully guarded secret.

Sensing my anxiety, Carlos tried to reassure me, “Don’t worry.

Caleb has taken precautions.

”

“What has he done?” I asked eagerly.

“You’ll see soon.

As expected, Caleb’s reply was swift.

He wasted no time in dropping the bombshell.

“It’s not just Debra that your niece offended; there’s more to the story.

”

Just then, the office door swung open and the school doctor walked in.

He was responsible for the children’s treatment the previous day.

He handed James a record of prescribed medicines and a List of medications purchased, his face tight and expression grave.
