Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 122

Jennifer's POV: 

I didn't expect this.

Tony was kneeling on the floor, begging me for mercy.

He burst into tears and his nose kept running as he shouted hysterically.

"I didn't mean to call you a jinx.Please have mercy on me! Let me go! This was all Arthur's idea.He's the one you should be after!"

Tony cried like a madman.

I was initially shocked with his violent reaction, but at the mention of Arthur's name, my expression hardened.

It was just as I had suspected—Arthur was behind all of this.

He was the one who slandered my name, calling me a jinx.

"Tony's condition has improved a lot, but when he saw Jennifer just now, he must've remembered something.That's probably why he couldn't control his emotions all of a sudden,"

Jeff explained to us.

Arthur killed my father and stole his position as Alpha of the Rainbow Pack.

As if this wasn't enough, he painted me as a bad luck charm.

He needed to pay for all of his crimes.

I clenched my hands tightly.

It turned out that Tony had worked with Arthur to make all of these bad things happen.

"Just because Arthur told you to, you slandered me as a jinx?"

I grabbed Tony by the collar angrily.

All of a sudden, Tony's expression changed.

He stopped crying and shook off my grip.

When he retrieved his antique, he started giggling and tinkering with it.

I watched him helplessly.

I doubted I could get any more useful information out of Tony.

He returned to his usual state of madness, muttering to himself incoherently.

"Don't worry.Tony will recover soon.Then you will find out everything you want to know,"

Jeff said, trying to comfort me.

"I'm sure that I'm not a jinx," I replied bitterly.

"The prophecy is nothing but a rumor that Arthur spread.While Tony was the one who made up the false prophecy, he's not in his right mind yet and can't act as a credible source against Arthur."

"The truth will come to light soon enough."

Anthony squeezed my hand reassuringly.

Then, he said to Jeff, "Please do your best to treat Tony.We really appreciate your help."

Jeff nodded solemnly, promising he would stop at nothing to heal the lost Tony.

Anthony's POV: 

After meeting Tony, Jennifer and I went back to her room.

She looked as though her mind was elsewhere.

It seemed that what Tony had said came as a big blow to her.

I pulled Jennifer close and let her lean on my chest.

I felt sorry for her.

‘How can I help her?’
