Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 218

Daniel's POV: 

My stay at the Rainbow Pack had been quite pleasant, but unfortunately, just a few days later, I received news that my father had fallen ill.

It was just after breakfast one morning when I received a call from my mother.

As soon as I answered it, the shrill sound of her tearful voice struck me with panic.

"Daniel, your father is seriously ill.Come back as soon as possible!"

"What? Mom, don't worry.I'll be right back!"

My stomach clenched with anxiety and apprehension.

Admittedly, my father was well past his prime, but he was once a very powerful Alpha.

How could he fall sick so suddenly? I immediately went back to our room and told Helen about it.

"Oh my God! How could this happen?" Helen's eyes widened with shock.

"We must go back to Black Stone Pack right now."

Without further delay, Helen took me to the study to look for Simon, who was reading a book.

"Dad, we have some bad news.Daniel's dad is ill.I have to go back to Black Stone Pack with Daniel right now," Helen said as she took Simon's hand in hers.

"Oh, no! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help! You two should go back as soon as possible."

As Simon embraced Helen, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Helen, don't worry, I'll see you again next time.Take care of yourself, honey."

"You take care as well, Dad."

Helen held onto Simon for as long as she could.

"I'm so sorry, Helen."

I felt guilty for separating Helen and her father because they were so reluctant to part with each other.

After all, this reunion came after a long time and now she had to leave with me.

"Don't be sorry, Daniel.We are family.Helen will go back with you,"

Simon said as he held my hand to give me courage.

I was deeply touched by Simon's thoughtfulness and compassion.

As soon as we packed our bags, we left Helen's house to bid farewell to Skylar and Jerome.

"Skylar, unfortunately, Daniel's father has fallen ill.We have to go back to Black Stone Pack to see him.We're leaving right now."

Helen and Skylar hugged at the gate, and I shook hands with Jerome.

"Oh, then you'd better go back as soon as possible.Safe travels.We will miss you!"

Skylar hugged me.

"Daniel, your father is a strong man.He will get better soon."

"Thank you for your blessing."

I held Helen's hand and looked at the newlyweds in admiration.

They were always together and they loved each other unconditionally.

I was finally convinced that Skylar had found happiness and I was happy for her from the bottom of my heart.

After saying farewell to Skylar and Jerome, Helen and I went to the airport as fast as we could and took the earliest flight back to Black Stone Pack.

As soon as the plane landed, we took a taxi back home.

As soon as Helen and I walked through the door, I asked my mother, "How is Dad doing?"

I found my mother sitting on the sofa with her hands over her face, sobbing.

She looked up and came to me when she heard my voice.

"Daniel, I don't know what happened.Your father was just fine and then all of a sudden, he fainted yesterday!”

She cried hysterically in Helen's arms.

"Thank you, Helen."

My mother gave Helen a gentle smile before she looked at me.

"Your dad is in his room.Go and see him."

I took Helen's hand and followed my mother to their bedroom.

As soon as I walked in, I saw my father lying in the bed, surrounded by several doctors and nurses who seemed to be running tests on him.

"Excuse me.What's wrong with my father?"

I couldn't believe my eyes.

It was hard for me to see my father lying in bed like that.

He looked so haggard and pale in his sleep.

It had only been a few days since the last time I saw him, but he seemed a few years older than he was.

"Alpha Marlon went into a coma after suffering a heart attack.However, we were able to treat him quickly and he is doing much better now," the doctor in charge replied.

"Well, do you have any advice on what would help him make a fast recovery?" Helen asked.

"Just make sure that he eats and takes his medicine on time every day.Apart from that, he just needs to be well-rested," the doctor continued.

"Thank you, doctor. We will follow your advice."

I took a deep breath before quietly walking to the bedside.I sat down slowly and held my father's hand, feeling a lump in my throat.

'Dad, you're going to be fine.You have to be.I still hope that you will name my first child in the future"
