Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 124

Anthony's POV: 

I hadn't returned to my hotel in a while now.I spent my days in the villa with Jennifer, watching over her recovery.

Ever since the car accident, I never wanted to leave her side.

I was glad to see that Jennifer was recovering at a good pace.

Every day, her condition grew better and better.

Our life had been very peaceful until this morning, when I suddenly received a message from my attendant.

"Mr.Jones, we have found something useful about the car accident you asked me to investigate.The hit-and-run driver works for Alpha Arthur.Please tell me what you want to do next."

"What evidence have you found against Arthur and the truck driver?"

My heart was beating hard against my chest as I typed.

"We have gotten a hold of a video of the accident, as well as some photos of Arthur and the truck driver negotiating in secret.These pieces of evidence should be enough to convict Arthur of the crime," the attendant replied.

"Send me the photos and the video.I'll handle the rest."

"Yes, Mr.Jones."

After a while, my phone pinged.

My attendant had sent the video and photos.

The video was taken by a dash cam of another car that was in the area.

It showed the truck driver intentionally ramming into the taxi that Jennifer was in.

The taxi driver swerved the steering wheel to avoid the imminent collision, but the truck driver chased after it closely.

After he successfully crashed into the taxi, the truck sped off to flee the scene of the crime.

As I watched the video, I clenched my fists angrily.

It turned out that Jennifer's car accident was no accident at all.

Next, I clicked on the photos my attendant sent.

One photo showed Arthur and the truck driver talking in a private room.

They were probably discussing how to kill Jennifer.

I took the video and photos to Jennifer and let her see the evidence.

"Jennifer, this is what my investigation has turned up.According to my attendant, this is enough to convict Arthur.And don't worry; I will deal with the truck driver.As for Arthur, what do you want to do with him? Are you going to confront him with these?"

"No rush.Hold onto these first.When Elder Tony wakes up, I'll settle accounts with Arthur once and for all." Jennifer sneered.

"Now that I'm certain that Arthur wants to kill me, I won't let him live in peace."

"Okay, I respect your decision." I nodded in agreement.

"Anthony, I appreciate all that you're doing for me.Thank you so much."

Jennifer looked up at me gratefully.

Then, her eyes narrowed.

"By the way, do you still remember the assassination at the celebration ceremony? Did you find out anything about those magicians?"

I shook my head with a sigh.

"I'm sorry.Those magicians were all rogues.Whoever attempted to assassinate us were careful.I haven't found any clues."

"It's okay,"

Jennifer patted me on the shoulder comfortingly.

"I know you did your best.The truth is, I've been mulling over it in my mind, wondering if Arthur is behind it, too.We know he wants to kill me.But what I don't understand is why he dared to attack you.I remember clearly that those magicians not only targeted me, but also you."

"I have an idea.Maybe the assassins at the celebration ceremony work for Austin.After all, he's always been out to get me."

"If that's the case, then I suspect that Austin has allied himself with Arthur.Before I came to Rainbow Pack, you and I helped the other werewolves fight back the vampires.Austin held a celebration banquet for us when we came back.But Austin invited Arthur to the banquet.Because Arthur and his daughter, Ella, announced that I was a jinx at the banquet, our engagement was postponed.Since then, I have suspected that there was something going on between Arthur and Austin."

Speaking of the past, Jennifer lowered her head sadly.

"We have to be careful from now on.If they're really working together to kill us, then we're not safe here at the Rainbow Pack."I took Jennifer's hand and tried to comfort her.

"But don't worry, Jennifer.I will protect you.No matter what happens, I'll be by your side."

Jennifer's POV: 

With Anthony, I felt like I was the luckiest woman in the world.

Despite losing his memories, he was still so considerate of me.

He kept reassuring me that no matter what happened, he would choose me.I was so moved by his words.
