âOh, is that so?â
I thought he was joking, so I didnât take it seriously.
I believed that Caleb and I already knew each other very well.
If he really had a son, he wouldnât hide it from me.
We had faced many challenges and life-and-death situations together many times.
And we had overcome them hand in hand.
I shouldnât doubt Caleb that easily only because of some unwarranted rumors.
All the outsiders who came to Roz Town finally signed the non-disclosure agreement except Caleb.
He didnât even look at the agreement, Let alone sign it.
I felt even more helpless.
Things had already come to this point.
Why didnât he still give up?
I walked to him, looked at him with raised eyebrows, and asked, âAre you still dreaming of purchasing the town, Caleb?â
Caleb Looked at me meaningfully.
âDebra, you donât need to hide.
â He leaned even closer to me.
âDidnât you get the right to sell this town? Then I want to make a deal with you.
â
Suddenly, I felt like a loud bang sounded inside me.
It was as if something had fallen into my heart and stirred up waves at the bottom.
I looked at Caleb in shock and said angrily, âYou bad man! How can you peek at Galeâs letter to me? You have gone too far.
â
Caleb hurriedly explained, âI didnât mean to peek.
Elena accidentally wetted the envelope.
I was worried that the letter inside might get wet, so I took it out to dry it.
I didnât intend to read it.
â
Anger rose from the bottom of my heart, but I held it back.
Whatever Calebâs excuse was, it was still wrong for him to read my letter.
This time, I said in a low voice, âCaleb, come here.
â
Then I pulled him to a corner with mixed emotions.

Actually, I had read Galeâs letter long ago.
She told me in her letter that Roz Town was a land that always brought trouble.
Because of Adamâs management, it missed the best period to develop.
Now, it was difficult to develop it well by only depending on its strength
Galeâs letter read, âDebra, after this incident, I believe this town will find it difficult to keep its peace, so Iâll leave it to you.
I
know you can handle it well.
But just a piece of advice.
If you want the town to have a bright future, you should make a deal with Caleb.
For the sake of your relationship, I hope he can help the residents of the town settle well in a place near Thorn Edge Pack to keep them safe.
â
Galeâs decision shocked me.
What made her think of such an idea?
