âWhatâs wrong?â
Caleb looked at me in confusion.
Rubbing my temples, I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.
After analyzing the situation, I mused, âNow is a critical time.
If we force the residents to disperse, it will cause public dissatisfaction.
â
âThen what should we do?â Caleb asked patiently.

After thinking about it carefully, I concluded, âLet me try to calm them down.
â
Caleb also knew that this was the best option, so he agreed, but on one condition.
âIâll go out with you so that if anything happens, I can protect you.
â
I shook my head resolutely.
âNo.
They didnât Like you before.
If you show up by my side like some kind of bodyguard, theyâll only hate you more.
â
âBut what if they try to hurt you?â
âThey wouldnât dare.
I was sent here by Gale, so no matter how angry they are, they canât do anything to me.
You can come out after Iâve diffused the situation.
â
Caleb hesitated.
He clearly didnât want to let me go out alone.
But I didnât give him the time to think about it and simply pushed
Elena into his arms.
âTake care of Elena.
Iâm going out.

The next second, I opened the door.
Suddenly, I was greeted with a big bouquet of flowers.
âCongratulations, Debra
Behind the wall of flowers, I saw Sonyaâs smiling face.
At first, I was surprised, but when I came to my senses, I found that most of the people gathered around the house were children and women from the town.

Sonya beamed at me brightly and explained, âWe all came as soon as we heard the news.
Congratulations on your engagement, Debra!â
As soon as she finished speaking, the others held up their small gifts.
âCongratulations, Debra!â
Debraâs POV:
I had thought that I was in danger.
However, to my surprise, the crowd wasnât here to berate me, but to congratulate me.
Looking at the countless gifts in front of me, I felt deeply touched.
It reminded me of the reason why I insisted on protecting this precious town.
