Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 251

Jennifer's POV: 

I had come to the Black Stone Pack solely to uphold justice for Helen.Ever since we met, Helen had always been a kind, emphatic girl.I knew in my heart that she wouldn't do anything to hurt a fly.

Besides, she was about to marry Daniel.

So why on earth would she want to kill Daniel's father? There simply was no reasonably motivation for Helen to kill Marlon.

It was ridiculous to even assume she was the murderer.

This meant that someone had deliberately framed the innocent and kind-hearted Helen.And as a good friend of hers, I couldn't stand by and watch her suffer.I had to help her, support her, and find out the truth for her.

Moreover, I couldn't just let Marlon''s murder go unsolved.

"Oh, well, my late husband's death really was strange."

Faced with my direct questioning, Betty was obviously at a loss.

While I didn't want to make things any more difficult for her, I still needed to get to the bottom of things.

"Please tell me everything," I urged.

"Marlon died all of a sudden a couple of days ago.I refused to believe he would just leave me like that, so I asked the forensic doctor to run an autopsy.However, the result of the autopsy revealed that Helen's perfume had poisoned Marlon..."

As she spoke about her husband's death, Betty's eyes were filled with sadness.She took out a handkerchief and dabbed her tears away.

"I wanted to believe that Helen is innocent.But I had no choice but to lock her up before finding evidence to prove it.After all, the perfume was hers.But now that both Elder Simon and Alpha Jerome are willing to swear on Helen's innocence, Helen can be released from prison for the time being.I will wait for the investigation to unfold."

"Okay, I see.Please show us the results of the autopsy and the perfume test.Can I also have a look at the perfume itself?"

After listening to Betty's statement, I felt a little relieved.

Evidence proving Helen's innocence was bound to show up sooner or later.

At least, for now, we could analyze what we had and start from there.

Betty quickly asked her attendant to bring the three things I wanted.

Minutes later, the autopsy report, the perfume test report, and the bottle of perfume were set on the table, one by one.

Anthony and I took a closer look at each of them.

"Jennifer, there's something else.A drug was added into the perfume that killed my father, but I swear to God that Mandy gave Helen the perfume.However, she refuses to admit it!"

Daniel's eyes were red with hatred.

"I see."

After leafing through the autopsy report, Anthony frowned.

"Mandy is the other suspect, am I right? Luna Betty, please call her here.I have something to ask her."

However, before Betty could respond, an attendant entered the room.

"Luna Betty, Devin and Grace are here."

"Devin is my older brother and Grace is his wife," Daniel explained to us.

"Okay, let them in," Anthony ordered.

Devin's POV: 

Just now, Grace and I were at the church, paying our respects to my father.

Although my father deserved to die, I was the one who killed him.I was worried he would turn into a ghost and haunt me for the rest of my life, so I had no choice but to go to his coffin and pray for him.

Before I even finished my prayer, I overheard an attendant saying that Helen had been released from prison.How could that be? Shouldn't she have been sentenced to death?! 

"Luna Betty and Daniel came to visit Alpha Marlon earlier, along with the Alpha and Luna of the Rainbow Pack, Elder Simon, Helen's father.It is said that they are close to Helen," the attendant said to me upon inquiring.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel flustered.

What? How could Helen be so close to the Alpha and Luna of her pack? Why were there so many werewolves backing her up here in person? After mulling it over in my mind, I came to the conclusion that the situation was headed to an unfavorable place.

Just as I was trying to figure out a way to stop the others from helping Helen, another attendant ran in.

"Prince Anthony has arrived with his mate."

Instantly, I perked up.
