Chapter 1054: Chapter 1054

“This is absolutely absurd!” he exclaimed, visibly upset.

After taking in all the details, Brian couldn’t accept Caleb’s risky rescue plan.

With a troubled look, he asked, “Caleb, isn’t there an exception to every rule? If this gets out, how will you justify it to the Thorn Edge Pack, not to mention your own father?”

Caleb was speechless.

I noticed his grip on the steering wheel tighten.

Seconds later, Caleb pulled the car to a stop, stepped out, and opened the back door.

Without uttering a word, he pulled Brian from the car with a strong tug.

“Caleb, what are you doing?” Melany yelled.

Caleb remained silent, his lips pressed together, a storm brewing in his expression.

Then, he balled his fists and lifted them high.

Melany and I were startled.

Could Caleb, overwhelmed by anger, be about to strike Brian?

After all, rescuing Brian from jail had drained us of so much effort and hope.

It was understandable, then, that Caleb’s temper flared upon hearing Brian criticize our actions and seemingly align with the former Alpha’s perspective.

Melany and I leaped out and rushed over, intending to intervene.

But what happened next took us by surprise.

Caleb gave Brian in a tight embrace.

He declared earnestly, “Brian, hear me out.

My father’s methods are antiquated.

I don’t believe in advancing my leadership through the sacrifice of followers.

If I can’t stand up for my friends and loved ones, I’m unworthy of being the pack’s Alpha.

”

Brian, caught off guard, soon found his eyes brimming with tears.

Without a word, he landed a punch on Caleb.

The tension and disagreements that had built up over the past few days dissolved with that single punch.

“Finally, it’s all over,” Caleb said, a smile of relief spreading across his face.

He clapped Brian on the back, reassuring him, “Let’s put the past behind us.

You don’t have to worry about it anymore.

You’re starting over with a new identity.

”

“Alright.

” This time, Brian offered no resistance.

Caleb gave a satisfied nod, then glanced at his phone for the time before announcing, “You’ll be staying with the Xeric Pack from here on out.

The bus station is nearby.

Debra and I can only take you this far.

”

Aware of the pressing time, I quickly added, “Once you reach the Xeric Pack, look for Harlan.

Everything’s been set up for you two.

There, you can continue your work as doctors.

”

“Thank you, Debra!” Emotion swelled in Melany’s eyes, her voice laden with appreciation.

She embraced me, expressing remorse.

“I’m sorry for earlier.

My emotions got the best of me and I ended up hurting you.

”

“It’s okay!” I empathized with her situation, knowing the despair of potentially losing a loved one.

I doubted I could have handled it as well as she did.

Thus, I wasn’t bothered by it.

Looking forward, I shared, “I plan to visit the Xeric Pack someday.

I’m eager to see you both leading the life you’ve dreamed of.

”

“Alright!” Melany, fighting back tears, managed a smile.

“Goodbye.

”

“Goodbye !”*

After the farewell, Caleb and I then returned to our car.

As we drove off, I couldn’t help but continuously glance back at Melany and Brian.

They remained there, watching us depart.

A tinge of sadness washed over me.

The distance between the Xeric Pack and the Thorn Edge Pack, coupled with our separate paths, meant that seeing them again might prove challenging.

I harbored hopes that these two compassionate doctors would find their happiness in the Xeric Pack.
