I gripped my clothes tightly.


    My uncertainty and hesitation made Caleb really angry.


    He came over and asked angrily, “Who is Abby? What does she mean to you? Is she more important than our daughter?”


    “She…”


    I tried to speak, but Caleb interrupted me harshly, his face full of scorn.


    “Debra, are you really willing to abandon your own children for another man? You are heartless and selfish!”


    Debra’s POV:


    “What on earth are you saying?”


    Caleb’s baseless usation ignited a me of anger within me.


    Instead of suppressing it, I confronted him.


    “I’m heartless and selfish? You cast judgment without understanding the full story.


    How self-righteous can you be?”


    Caleb furrowed his brow.


    “How have I ndered you? Isn’t the truth evident?”


    Myughter wasced with frustration.


    Hisck of reason was exasperating.


    I stood defiantly, hands on hips.


    “Let me enlighten you.


    I witnessed your breach of integrity as a man.


    Care to exin that?”


    “What are you trying to imply?” Caleb’s confusion was evident in his expression as he looked at me.


    I retorted, “Don’t y ignorant.


    Anyway, I’m leaving with Andrew today.


    No one can stop me.


    ”


    Caleb, visibly irked, blurted out, “Fine! If you leave, don’t bother returning.


    You’re not wee here anymore!”


    As I was blinded by anger, rational thought eluded mepletely.


    “I couldn’t care less!” I eximed before storming off with Andrew.


    As we stepped outside, the morning sun had already risen, casting its radiant light upon the ground.


    Andrew’s car awaited us by the door, its sleek exterior reflecting the brilliance of the sun.


    We entered the car and drove away without a single nce behind us.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Yet, nearing the witch n, my heart was heavy.


    “Debra, I’m so sorry.


    ” Andrew’s voice broke through the silence; he seemed to sense my mood.


    “I didn’t mean to cause a rift between you and Caleb.


    I was only concerned for your well-being, hoping to bring you back.


    ”


    I waved off his apology, replying, “There’s no need.


    This is between Caleb and me.


    He’s the one at fault.


    ”


    At the mention of Caleb, frustration bubbled anew.


    “His arrogance is astounding.


    How did I ever fall for him? Sometimes, I wonder if it was merely my wolf’s attraction to his exterior.


    ”


    Ivy’s displeasure was palpable.


    “Wait, how does that concern me?”


    Andrew intervened, “Please, Debra, let’s not jump to conclusions.


    Caleb might just be upset, and his words may have been a result of that.


    ”


    My reply dripped with bitterness.


    “Regardless of his emotions, his words have caused significant harm.


    Let’s drop the subject.


    I’d rather not discuss him any further.


    We’re heading back.
