Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 241

Anthony's POV: 

When I looked over to the crowd and saw Caroline and Austin, I was a little surprised at first.I never thought that someone as arrogant as Austin would come to meet me, instead of praying for misery to befall me.

To show my heartfelt gratitude, I spoke to him politely and we shared a rare moment where we didn't actually hate each other.

The atmosphere between us was no longer tense and it was indeed a refreshing experience.I glanced at Austin and found him staring at me.

We locked eyes for a few seconds and then looked away.I wasn't quite sure how I felt about Austin just yet.

"Anthony, congratulations on removing the Love Curse.I wish you and Jennifer a happily life together,"

Caroline said as she looked at me with sincerity in her eyes.I was surprised at first, and soon, I came back to my senses.

"Thank you, Caroline.Take good care of yourself.I wish you and Austin have a wonderful life together as well," I replied to Caroline.

Austin fidgeted restlessly as if he was hesitating to say something before he looked at me and said, "Brother."

My eyes widened in astonishment as I looked at him.

"Anthony, you will make a far better king than I could ever hope to be.Please look after the legacy our father has left behind.The responsibility of its safe- keeping now falls on you,"

Austin added slowly.

"I will do my best, Austin.Thank you for your words," I replied.

"Mr.Jones, it's time for your brother and Ms.Wilson to go back to their prison cell," one of the guards whispered in my ear.

"Goodbye, Austin and Caroline."

Jennifer and I bade them a fond farewell.

Then, I ordered the guard, "I want you to put them in a nice cell.After all, Caroline just delivered a baby."

Austin must have overhead what I had said to the guard because he stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at me.

He stood silently for a moment as he looked at me.

In truth, he didn't even have to say anything at all because his eyes showed me that he was moved by my gesture.

I took a long deep breath as I watched Austin and Caroline walk away.

"What's wrong, Anthony?"

Jennifer asked as she looked at me with her big beautiful eyes.

"Nothing.I was just reminiscing about the past when Austin and I were both very young and our father was still alive.We got along really well as kids and we hardly ever quarreled.Dad would take us out on fishing and hunting trips, and whenever Austin would shoot a hare, he would roast it and share it with me.He would give me the best part every time because I was the younger sibling."

"That sounds lovely." Jennifer smiled as she held my hand.

"Anthony, now it's time for you to share your hare with me."

I laughed at her words.

'’The past may be filled with regrets, but the future is something to look forward to,'’ I thought as I looked at Jennifer.

Elizabeth's POV: 

When I saw Austin and Caroline speaking to Anthony from a distance, I decided not to disturb them.

After the Love Curse was lifted from Anthony, I no longer felt anger towards Austin.

After all, my husband and I were partly to blame for neglecting him and his relationship with Anthony.

At least, Austin was now remorseful of his actions.

After Austin and Caroline left, I walked up to Anthony and patted him on the shoulder.
