The Almighty Alpha Wins Back His Rejected Mate

I wasn’t ready to give up, so I tried calling her again using Caleb’s phone, but she still didn’t pick up.

Caleb and I exchanged glances with Andrew in silence.

It seemed likely that Shirley would only respond to a call from Andrew at this point.

Andrew grimaced but still pulled out his phone to call.

The phone was picked up almost immediately.

Andrew switched on the speakerphone.

Within seconds, Shirley’s voice, both aggrieved and flirtatious, filled the air.

“I’ve been burned for nearly a week.

You haven’t called once.

I thought you were mad at me and that you’d never speak to me again.

”

Confronted with Shirley’s clinginess, Andrew’s expression turned to one of revulsion.

However, needing to confirm whether Abby was with Shirley, he reassured her reluctantly, “I’ve just been really swamped lately.

I’ll make time to visit you soon.

”

Shirley’s mood visibly lifted at his words.

She urged, “Then hurry over.

I’ve been discharged from the hospital and am recovering at my mother’s estate.

Just come here.

I miss you so much.

Andrew ignored Shirley’s sweet words and exchanged a glance with us.

He then asked cautiously, “Do you know Abby? She’s missing.

Did you take her?”

Shirley was stunned for a moment and then asked in confusion, “Who is Abby?”

Andrew explained in a hurry, “The child at my estate.

She was taken this morning by some bodyguards.

”

Hearing Andrew’s words, Shirley suddenly erupted into laughter.

Her laughter struck me as more chilling than any ghostly howl, making my heart race.

After a moment, Shirley regained her composure and said proudly, “Oh, that little one.

Is Debra beside herself now?”

With that, Shirley burst into Laughter once more.

The sound of her victorious laughter coming through the phone turned my face pale instantly.

At that moment, I became nearly certain that Abby had been taken by Shirley.

Debra’s POV:

I glanced at Andrew, hinting for him to ask about Abby right away.

Seeing my worried face, Andrew didn’t hesitate.

He shouted into the phone at Shirley, “Enough! Where’s Abby? Bring her back to my place now!”

“No way!” Shirley snapped back instantly.

Caleb and I looked even more worried than before.

I was really worried that something bad might happen to Abby while she was with Shirley.

I’d seen how mean Shirley could be, but Abby was just a kid…

I was terrified.

If Caleb wasn’t holding me up, I might have collapsed.
