The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1775

“I have no interest in talking with people like you.

Addy, what is it that you want from me?” I asked impatiently.

Addy’s face took on a serious expression.

She gestured for the servants and bodyguards to leave the room, and soon, it was just the two of us.

Once we were alone, she began, “Shirley suffered terribly in the fire last night.

Her face, neck, and chest were severely burned.

Even the best doctors might not fully heal her wounds.

It’s likely she’ll be left with scars.

”

I was puzzled and frowned.

“But what does it have to do with me? I’m not a doctor.

I can’t treat Shirley.

”

Addy’s gaze turned icy as she looked at me sharply.

“Stop playing dumb Everyone is aware of Shirley’s feelings for Andrew.

Her injuries are a direct result of her love for him.

She has sacrificed a lot for love.

It’s only right that you give Andrew back to her.

”

I couldn’t contain my scoff.

Recalling last night’s events with Andrew, I retorted sarcastically, “Is drugging and assaulting what your people consider ‘love’?”

Addy appeared slightly flustered.

I pressed on, “Andrew chose not to seek punishment for Shirley’s actions for her mother’s sake.

If this scandal becomes public, it’ll disgrace both Shirley and her mother.

”

Addy’s demeanor softened.

With a sigh, she admitted, “We’ve spoiled Shirley too much.

We’ll take steps to correct her, but now she’s been disfigured.

”

I scoffed in response, “Like I said, that’s not my problem.

”

Addy’s voice trembled with urgency.

“Shirley woke up today.

When she realized she was disfigured, she couldn’t handle it and tried to end her life.

If we hadn’t intervened in time, she might have succeeded in slashing her wrist.

”

Her expression was laden with worry, clearly showing her deep concern for Shirley.

However, I felt no sympathy for Shirley.

In my eyes, she brought this upon herself.

Previously, no one dared to challenge Shirley’s abusive behavior simply because she was the clan leader’s daughter.

Now that she had caused her own disfigurement, they expected me to help clean up the mess.

I was no saint.

I couldn’t assist her.

Still, given that Addy was an assistant of the clan leader, I restrained my harsher comments.

“I can’t help.

It’s best you replace a doctor quickly to restore Shirley’s appearance.

”

Addy fell silent for a moment after my words.

My expression said it all, though I hadn’t spoken a word.

Addy shot another wary look at the bodyguards stationed at the door.

Catching her cue, the bodyguards shut the door.

I frowned, puzzled and annoyed.

What the hell? Were they trying to force me to agree? If I refused, would they really hold me here against my will?

The whole situation seemed absurd.

I spoke up, my voice icy.

“If you want Andrew and Shirley together, you should be discussing it with Andrew.

Why are you complicating things for me behind his back?”

Addy, catching the scorn in my gaze, seemed to shrink back a bit, guilt flickering in her eyes as she avoided meeting mine.

I could tell Addy was torn.
