Caleb offered a resigned smile and said, âMy main concern is for your peace of mind.
Knowing youâre worried, Iâd rather you go ahead with it, hoping it makes you feel better.
Besides, even if I tried to stop you, I know you wouldnât heed my advice.
Just Like when you ventured into the misty forest before.
â He playfully tapped my nose.
A bashful smile spread across my face, my heart warming at his gesture.
Caleb added, âAlso, the children reminded us to be mindful of each otherâs feelings.
Knowing how the loss of Dylan has weighed on you, how could I stand in your way of uncovering the truth?â
I remained silent.
I felt deeply touched, speechless in the moment.
I could only gaze at him, my eyes brimming with tears, and whisper, âThank you, Caleb.
â
He simply smiled and said, âNo worries.
â
Feeling a bit more settled, I quickly dialed Galeâs number.
Once connected, I said earnestly, âGale, weâve successfully relocated the third group of residents to the Roz District without any issues.

Weâre planning our wedding soon.
Would you be able to attend?â
âReally? Thatâs wonderful news.
Congratulations! The journey youâve shared has been long and challenging.
Itâs remarkable how far youâve come.
Treasure your bond,â Gale answered with her usual calm.
âThanks, I appreciate it.
We still havenât resolved Dylanâs situation, though.
I plan to return to the Xeric Pack soon to see if I can uncover anything helpful.
â
âDylan? Do you mean the child who was thought to be dead but returned?â Gale asked, sounding puzzled.

âYes.
â I realized Gale might not be fully updated on recent events in the Thorn Edge Pack, possibly due to her own responsibilities in the Xeric Pack, so I explained, âI mentioned before that Dylan was presumed dead.
But Caleb and I are still clueless about how he ended up with Denise.
Itâs a critical issue we need to resolve.
â
My confusion deepened.
Gale had initially informed me of Dylanâs death, claiming to have buried him herself.
However, her apparent unawareness of Dylanâs ordeal with Denise raised questions.
If she wasnât aware, then who was behind all this?
Debraâs POV:
âHow could this be possible?â Galeâs expression turned serious in an instant.
âI regret to inform you, Debra, that I wonât be able to attend your wedding with Caleb.
â
Taken aback, I queried, âWhy?â
I had earnestly hoped for Galeâs presence at my wedding, given the impact she had on my life, having saved me and provided me with a second chance.
In a composed voice, Gale explained, âThe matter concerning Dylan is grave, and I must thoroughly investigate it in the coming days.
Debra, proceed with your wedding with Caleb.
Put aside concerns for other things to avoid any potential disturbances.
â
Considering the bigger picture and placing trust in Gale, I pondered briefly before acquiescing, âAlright, thank you.
â
Although I harbored a desire to uncover the truth, the impending wedding made it impractical to delve into the investigation at this juncture.
Furthermore, the investigation was unpredictable.
If it extended for a prolonged period, potentially causing delays in the wedding, managing the consequences would prove challenging.
Considering that the wedding date had already been announced, any external instigation would be increasingly troublesome.
