Chapter 922: Chapter 922

“Caleb, what’s going on?”

Witnessing the scene, Zoe rushed over, her anger evident in her furious stomp.

“Caleb, what are you doing? Why have you arrested Debra?”

“Zoe, I’ll select the finest guards and guides to accompany you into the forest.

However, I can’t permit Debra to join.

She must remain with the Thorn Edge Pack.

”

Zoe wore a perplexed expression.

“But isn’t she in charge of the relocation agreement? Why can’t she come with us?” It made no sense.

With a grave demeanor, Caleb reminded her in a solemn tone, “Zoe, consider this carefully.

While the second batch from Roz Town is undoubtedly important, Debra represents not only the relocation agreement of Roz Town but also the friendship between the Xeric Pack and the Thorn Edge Pack.

If she were to die in the forest, it would undoubtedly spark a conflict between our two packs.

Can you deal with the fall-out?”

Debra’s POV:

Zoe gazed at me intently.

Ultimately, she agreed with Caleb.

“Caleb’s right.

It’s not safe for you to go, Debra.

You represent the Xeric Pack.

If anything goes wrong, it’ll spark conflict between our pack and the Thorn Edge Pack.

The relocation pact would crumble, leading to a showdown between the two packs.

You should stay put.

”

I retorted with frustration, “But what about those innocent residents who’ve gone missing? Are we just going to abandon them for my sake?”

“No, I won’t,” Zoe replied calmly.

“I’ll take a group into the woods.

”

“No, absolutely not!” I objected vehemently.

“Zoe, that place is dangerous.

If you lead the team alone, trouble’s bound to arise.

Let me accompany you; at least we can watch out for each other.

Zoe shook her head, her voice steady as she spoke.

“No, that’s all.

I’ve got this.

I’ve been a cop for years, seen my fair share of weird stuff.

It’s not a big deal.

”

Caleb added, “Debra, you’ve got a unique role here.

You need to keep an eye on the bigger picture.

You can’t just do as you please; we’ve got a plan to follow.

”

I shot back, “My identity comes from the folks in Roz Town.

Without them, there wouldn’t even be a Roz Town, let alone my role.

If you’re worried about tensions between the packs, I can figure out a way to mend that…”

But Caleb cut me off before I could finish, his determination unwavering.

“No matter what you say, Debra, I won’t let you go.

”

He signaled to the guards.
