The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate
Chapter 1780

I didn’t want Nora to give up her life here for me.

Besides, my relationship with Caleb was quite complicated, and there were still issues to be dealt with within the Thorn Edge Pack.

I couldn’t guarantee Nora a safe and happy life if she came with me.

Debra’s POV:

At that moment, an unfamiliar bodyguard approached with his arms full of snacks.

Confused, I asked, “What’s this about? I didn’t order any food.

”

The bodyguard arranged the snacks meticulously on the stone table in the garden and explained, “These are from Mr.

Pierce.

He thought you might replace the manor dull and wanted to cheer you up.

”

When Nora caught sight of the cakes, nuts, and milk tea spread across the table, her eyes sparkled with delight.

“Debra, Mr.

Pierce really cares about you! Even from his hospital bed, he’s looking out for you.

Imagine how wonderful life will be when you’re married.

”

I felt a twinge of embarrassment.

Andrew’s thoughtfulness was unexpected, especially since our relationship was just a pretense.

Did he really need to go to such lengths for me?

The thought of Caleb crossed my mind; he was the type who would naturally do these kindhearted gestures.

“Debra, what’s wrong?” Nora asked, noticing my silence.

I reassured her, “It’s nothing.

Help yourself to anything you like.

I know these are your favorites.

”

“Thank you,” she said, her smile lighting up her face.

After she said that, she reached for the cake.

However, before her fingers grazed it, the bodyguard intervened.

Nora gave me a sheepish look.

The situation felt odd to me too.

Yet, before I could voice my confusion, the bodyguard explained, “These cakes are specifically for Debra, purchased by Mr.

Pierce.

Nora, perhaps you should try something else.

”

With that, the bodyguard inserted a straw into a cup of milk tea and handed it to Nora.

Nora muttered under her breath, “Stingy.

”

However, she wasn’t really upset and began sipping her milk tea contentedly.

Meanwhile, I scrutinized the bodyguard and discreetly picked up a small cake without a word.

The bodyguard smiled and inquired, “Are the snacks to your liking? I need to report back to Mr.

Pierce.

”

I nodded and replied cheerfully, “They’re excellent.

Please extend my thanks to him.

”

The bodyguard offered a guileless smile and assured, “Absolutely, I’ll pass along your message.

Enjoy your meal.

I must return to my duties now.

”

With that, he turned and walked away.

As soon as the bodyguard was out of earshot, I hastily set the cake down and told Nora, “Stop drinking that!”

It might have been my dramatic reaction that scared Nora.

She set down her milk tea in alarm and looked like she was about to spit it out.
