Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 283

Morgan's POV: 

When I looked at Amelia's pale face, I clutched my chest as I felt my heart tighten with excruciating pain.

Larry! It was all that mad bastard's fault! I wasn't a man of violence, but if I could get my hands on that rotten wizard, I would gut him like a fish and watch him die a slow and painful death.I was not confident to contend with him.I spent my solitary years on the snow mountain honing my skills and studying witchcraft.I wasn't as weak as I used to be, to say the least, but I was still no match for the famous grand wizard.

And yet, I was determined to put up a fight for sake of Amelia's safety.

After all, she was the love of my life.

She was the most important part of my life, without a question.

While I was deep in contemplation, Anthony and Jennifer walked into the ward.

"Morgan, don't worry.We will work together and defeat Larry," Anthony said seriously as if he had seen through my dilemma.

I respected Anthony and I believed in him.

"Thank you for helping us again, Mr.Jones.Amelia and I wouldn't know what to do without you and Jennifer."

The doctor entered after knocking on the door once and he brought with him an injection.

"Is that the antidote?" I asked hopefully.

After administering the injection, the doctor said to me, "This was just a painkiller to help ease the pain.We are doing our best to come up with the antidote.Please, have faith."

My eyes fell to the floor in disappointment, but I still expressed my gratitude.

"Thank you, doctor." I took a deep breath and held Amelia's hand tightly.

"Amelia, are you okay? If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me.I will use magic to relieve your pain."

Amelia opened her tear-soaked eyes and tried to smile at me, but when I saw how her lips trembled, it crushed my spirit completely.

"Honey, don't be sad.I've already prepared for the worst result.I'm happy that I got to see you again, even if it was only just for a few days, I can at least die with some good memories," Amelia said slowly and then she shifted her gaze to Anthony and Jennifer.

"Mr.Jones, you and Jennifer shouldn't be here right now. Don't you have an important ceremony to arrange?"

"All right, Amelia.Anthony and I will head back first.I think you two need some time together.Morgan will take good care of you.If you need anything, let us know at any time," Jennifer said sincerely.

Anthony took out his phone and dialed a number.

After he hung up, he said to us, "I've contacted the director of the hospital and asked him to send the most experienced doctors to treat Amelia.Don't worry.Everything will be all right."

After saying that, Anthony turned his head and ordered his attendant, "Double the security in the hospital and don't let alone suspicious get close to Amelia and Morgan."

"Thank you for your help, Mr.Jones."

I was grateful to Anthony for his thoughtfulness and kindness.

Amelia tried her best to sit up and said to Anthony and Jennifer, "Thank you for everything.I really don't know how I'm ever going to repay you."

"All you need to do to repay us is rest and get better soon.Take care, Amelia.We will see you tomorrow,"

Jennifer replied with a smile.

After Jennifer and Anthony left the ward with the doctor, Amelia and I were left alone in the quiet ward.

I held her hand and comforted her, "Amelia, get to sleep.Honey, you've been through a lot."

Amelia's POV: I could hardly keep my eyes open through the exhaustion, but I fought the urge to sleep.

After all, I was afraid I didn't have much time left.

I just wanted to see Morgan a little longer.

After lying in bed quietly for a while, I said, "Morgan, let's leave the royal palace after attending the wedding of Mr.Jones and Jennifer, okay? If Larry comes after me again, I don't want to endanger the others."
