Just as I was growing tired of socializing, there was a sudden commotion among the crowd.
I craned to look in the direction of the commotion and saw Janiya and Caleb walking in, hand in hand.
Janiya was wearing an exquisite off-shoulder mermaid dress that was bright red and red high heels with small diamonds to match. Her long hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, setting off her beautiful neck. Her waist was impeccably slender, and Caleb’s arm looked Like it was at home around it. They looked Like the perfect couple. As soon as the two showed up, they attracted everyone’s attention.
Caleb’s calm expression and decent behaviors contrasted sharply with the guilty look on his face when he found out that he had misunderstood me all these years.
I couldn’t help but think that even though Caleb knew he was wrong about me, it didn’t matter to him. After all, he had left a string of hurt she-wolves in his wake. How as I any different from the others?
However, I couldn’t shake off my discomfort when I saw my mate acting so intimately with another she-wolf. I felt as though someone was squeezing the Life out of me, suffocating me ruthlessly.
I wanted to escape, but Adam took my arm and dragged me toward them.
“Well, well, well! Caleb, you have good taste.”
As soon as Adam got close to Caleb and Janiya, he flattered the Latter skillfully. “Janiya, you’re the most beautiful she-wolf here. No one can compare to your beauty. The first time I saw you, I thought you were an angel!”
“Why, thank you.” Janiya held Caleb’s arm intimately and smiled happily. Obviously, Adam’s praise successfully inflated her ego.
Caleb, on the other hand, nodded emotionlessly. I couldn’t help but notice that his eyes kept glancing at me.
When Janiya saw me, the gentle smile on her face quickly turned into one of mockery.

She looked at me from head to toe with undisguised contempt on her face. “Debra, you have no taste in clothes. The shawl and dress don’t match at all. You’re an embarrassment to Adam.”
As soon as Janiya said this, Adam’s expression darkened. But he knew he couldn’t lose his temper with Janiya since she was Caleb’s plus one. So Adam vented his anger on me.
“Debra, take off the damn shawl!” Adam barked impatiently.
I was looking for an excuse to refuse him, but Adam didn’t give me the chance. His hand suddenly shot out to me. 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮
I took a step back, but it was too late.
The next second, a chill washed over my bare neck and shoulders. The shawl that Sally had lent me was yanked off by Adam and thrown on the floor.
In an instant, the ugly scar on my shoulder was exposed to the public. “Oh, God!”
Janiya covered her mouth exaggeratedly. “Debra, what happened to you? Were you attacked? This is the ugliest scar I’ve ever seen!”
Debra’s POV:
How was Janiya so good at guessing? She had unwittingly hit the nail on the head.
