Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 186

Austin's POV: 

Just looking at Anthony's calm face drove me up the wall in anger.

I would do anything to wipe that arrogant, snobbish expression on his face.

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists to contain my anger.

Did he want to get married? I wasn't going to let him live to his wedding day.

As long as Anthony was alive, he would always be a thorn in my side.

I wanted him and his damned mate to rot in hell for an eternity.

I pulled Caroline over and sat her down before I whispered in her ear, "Honey, go ahead with your plan.You have my full support,"

"As you wish, Austin.Just wait and see."

Caroline smiled charmingly and I gave her a gentle pat on the buttock to show my satisfaction.

Caroline winked at me playfully before she picked up a glass of wine and walked towards Anthony.

"Congratulations, Jennifer! Finally, it must feel good to be reunited with Anthony!"

A smile appeared on my face as I saw Caroline stand in front of Jennifer.

‘‘Poor Anthony, you won't even know what hit you!’’ I thought viciously.

"Thank you, Caroline."

Jennifer looked calm and she didn't refuse Caroline's toast, which allowed Caroline to proceed with our plan.

"Argh!"

Before Jennifer could raise her glass, Caroline screamed and fell to the floor.

The glass flew out from her hand and shattered into pieces.

To play along, I quickly stood up and ran to Caroline in a hurry.

"Caroline! What happened? Are you okay?"

I screamed as loud as I could, attracting the attention of everyone around us.

"Jennifer pushed me! Ouch, my belly hurts! Austin, Jennifer wants to kill our child!"

Caroline winced on the floor, with both hands on her belly.

She shrieked like a wounded animal as I helped her up to her feet.

"I didn't even touch her.She just fell down on her own," Jennifer explained with a frown.

"I can testify that Jennifer didn't touch Caroline.Austin, you better have the doctors check Caroline's condition as soon as possible."

Anthony also stood up, but he maintained a calm and composed expression as he held Jennifer in his arms.

I felt anger surge up inside me like a storm out at sea.

"No! She pushed me!" Caroline burst into tears.

She feigned injury as she leaned against my chest and scolded Jennifer.

"She hates me.She pushed me on purpose just now!"

Caroline's dress suddenly turned red as she spoke and a stream of blood trickled down her legs.

Of course, it was all part of our plan.

It was a small trick we had prepared in advance.

"Anthony, your testimony means nothing to me! You and your mate are in on this together!" I said sternly.

As I helped Caroline up, I gestured at the maids standing behind me with my hand.

"Take Caroline back to our room and get her cleaned up.Call the doctors at once.We have to make sure that her baby is safe!"

The maids rushed to our side and carried Caroline out of the banquet hall while the other guests watched in awe and befuddlement.

"Anthony's mate tried to murder my baby,"

I yelled, pointing at Jennifer.

"Take her down and put her in prison.She needs to be put before a trial for her actions."

Upon my order, the guards standing outside the hall swarmed inside, ready to capture Jennifer.

"I would like to see who's brave enough to lay a finger on her."

Anthony stared at me coldly as he stood in front of Jennifer to protect her.

"Choose your words carefully, Anthony!"

I snapped and my eyes were filled with hatred.

"How dare you disobey my order? Are you going to commit treason? Jennifer tried to murder my baby in public.Everyone saw it.Are you still going to deny the truth?"

As soon as I finished my words, I glanced at the elders who supported me.

"Anthony, you can't use your power to seek personal gain!"

"We all saw your mate push the queen!"
