The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1652

“Andrew, thank you so much!” I chimed in sincerely.

“Your benevolence in providing shelter for those in need will surely be rewarded by the heavens.

”

Andrew’s response was a natural smile, warm and genuine.

“You’re my fiancee, my dear.

Whatever your heart desires, I shall strive to make it a reality.

”

As he stepped closer, his fingers delicately brushed a stray lock of hair behind my ear, a gesture so intimate it sent a shiver down my spine.

My smile froze.

What was he playing at?

Clutching the fabric of my attire tightly, I struggled to keep my composure, a fear gnawing at me that my facade could crumble at any moment.

If Nora hadn’t been present, I might have physically recoiled several meters.

Ivy’s teasing voice broke through my thoughts.

“He’s taking advantage of the situation, isn’t he?”

Fortunately, Andrew withdrew his hand swiftly, restoring the distance between us.

His performance was impeccable; he could have been a professional actor.

As I internally commented on his acting skills, one of Andrew’s employees approached, offering a polite nod before whispering something to his ear.

After that, Andrew nodded solemnly before turning to me with an apologetic smile.

“Debra, I’m sorry, but I must excuse myself for a bit.

I’ll instruct the butler to promptly arrange everything for Nora.

”

“Okay.

”

Understanding his need to leave, I bid him farewell with a casual wave, refraining from probing into his affairs.

As I watched Andrew leave, Nora looked at me with admiration.

“Debra, you’re amazing!” she exclaimed, giving me a thumbs up.

“I’ve heard so much about how much Andrew adores his fiancee.

I thought it was just talk, but it’s true.

You’re so lucky!”

Nora’s sincerity radiated genuine happiness for me, devoid of any hint of jealousy.

Little did she know, it was all a charade.

I wasn’t sure how to respond so I offered an awkward smile.

Though I hadn’t agreed to prolong the deception, I couldn’t bring myself to reveal the truth about our fabricated engagement immediately after Andrew’s assistance.

That would be too cruel.

So, for the time being, I chose to keep it hidden.

Days passed swiftly.

Nora and I naturally grew closer, forming a genuine friendship.

She dedicated herself wholeheartedly to caring for me and Abby, never faltering in her support.

“Honey, please consider it one more time,” Ivy urged persistently, despite my repeated refusals.

“Returning to the Thorn Edge Pack wouldn’t be the end of the world.

It’s been so long; even if you don’t want to hear Caleb’s explanations, you should at least go see the kids.
