Caleb became a little impatient and said, âStop bothering her.
She has just regained consciousness.
She doesnât have the energy to deal with all these matters.
Please leave now and let her rest well.
â
However, Sonya criticized him rudely.
âYou have some nerve saying that.
You didnât look after Debra well, which is why she landed in danger.
She fell into a coma and was nearly killed.
Youâre not a good mate.
You didnât protect her efficiently!â
Debraâs POV:
I blinked in surprise.
I never imagined that the timid Sonya would be courageous enough to say something like that to the Alpha of the Thorn Edge Pack.
In normal circumstances, she didnât even dare to argue with others.
Caleb looked down silently.
He looked very guilty as he faced Sonyaâs accusation and didnât say anything to defend himself.
There was a moment of silence.
âWhy arenât you saying anything? Humph!â Sonyaâs chest heaved and she let out a cold snort.
I was touched, and yet felt a little helpless.
I knew that the Roz Town residents adored me, so they were all standing up for me and looking after me.
But because they cared too much, they were inevitably extreme and biased.
So, I stopped Sonya.
Tugging at the hem of her dress, I said softly, âSonya, Iâm okay.
Look, Iâm fine now.
â
Sonya stomped her foot and said angrily, âDebra, youâre not fine.
You were unconscious for so many days.
â
Sadness crept into her voice.
âYou donât know this, but while you were unconscious these past few days, the Thorn Edge Packâs security guards guarded your room tightly.
They didnât even allow us to visit you under the pretense of protecting you.
We were left with no choice but to gather today to seek justice for you it was at a loss for words.
So this was the truth.
No wonder I could hear noise in my dream.
âThank you so much, Sonya and all of you,â I said with heartfelt gratitude.
Some misunderstanding must have occurred between the security guards and them.
Either way, the intentions of the Roz Town residents were pure.
They were only concerned about me.
Sonyaâs lips curled up as she responded, âDebra, donât say that.
Youâre the one who has helped us so much.
You disregarded your own safety to go in and save everyone, including the Thorn Edge Packâs search and rescue team.
However, they were not only ungrateful but also spread rumors about you.
They wanted to imprison you on the basis of that hearsay.
What a bunch of thankless people! Caleb is your mate, but he couldnât even protect you!â
âNo, you misunderstand.
Itâs not true that he didnât protect me.
â I didnât want Sonya to get the wrong idea about Caleb, so I chose my words carefully.
âThe foggy forest is too dangerous.
Caleb has done his best protect me.
And whatever happened, all the bad stuff has passed and we are safe.
We donât need to dwell on it.
â
Sonyaâs shoulders sagged.
She still held some anger towards Caleb, but didnât say anything more.
Caleb looked visibly relaxed after everyone else left.
