Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 303

Jennifer's POV: 

After Anthony left to go to the meeting, I called up Skylar on the phone to catch up with her.

"Hey, how are you doing?" I asked Skylar.

"I'm fine.Jerome took me to an art exhibition last night! I received a reply from Skylar soon.We ended up chatting for a long time as I was in high spirits.”

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and I raised my head to say, "Please come in."

The maid walked in and bowed her head down.Then, she handed me a booklet with a red cover.

"Mrs.Jones, this is the list of gifts from the guests.Please have a look."

I took the list and checked it carefully on my lap.

Elizabeth had said that every guest that was invited to attend a ceremony would always bring a gift, as it was an important part of tradition.

As I read the booklet, I suddenly found a familiar name on the list—Carl Davis.It was Carl, my childhood playmate.I was curious to see what gift he had brought and my eyes widened with astonishment when I saw the words—Heart of the Ocean.

Heart of the Ocean? I couldn't believe it.

"Go and bring me Alpha Carl's gift," I ordered the maid.

"Yes, Mrs.Jones."

The maid left, but quickly came back with the necklace on a velvet cushion and placed it before me.I picked up the beautiful sapphire necklace and stared at it carefully.I knew it was the same one I had seen in the exhibition center many years ago just by its intoxicating luster.I gasped in shock as I didn't expect Carl to give me such a precious gift.

As kids, we used to go to the exhibition center all the time with our friends, and that was where I first saw this dazzling necklace called Heart of the Ocean.

I used to lean on the glass cabinet in pure awe of its beauty.I remember Carl telling me that he would buy me that necklace when we were older.I didn't take his words seriously because we were just kids at the time.I had no idea that he had been planning on getting me this necklace since that day.

Oh my God! The more I looked at the necklace, the more I appreciated its beauty.

I loved it not only because it was beautiful, but because it meant a lot to me.I had to express my gratitude to him personally for such a wonderful gesture.

After I kept the necklace safely in my jewelry box, I sat on the sofa and went through the list of gifts.I was quite surprised to see Austin's and Caroline's names on the list.

Their gift was a pearl necklace.I was moved by Caroline's gesture of kindness.

After all, the fact that she gave me a pearl necklace, even though they were stripped of their wealth, showed humility and compassion.

"Go and bring the necklace from Caroline.I'd like to wear it one of these days," I said to the maid.

By some coincidence, I received a message from Caroline at that very moment.

"Congratulations, Jennifer.I wish you a happy married life.Austin and I are fine on the island.Please tell Anthony not to worry about us."

It was hard to imagine that the Caroline who used to resent me so much could send me such a friendly message now.I quickly replied to her as I felt warm in my heart.

"Thank you, Caroline."

After sending the message, I suddenly thought of Caroline's daughter, Alice, who was named and being raised by Elizabeth.I knew that Caroline must think about her child every day, as would any mother would.I decided to take a few photos of Alice and send them to Caroline.I went to Elizabeth's residence at once and explained my intention to her.

"Mom, Caroline sent me a lovely wedding gift.It's a pearl necklace.I'd like to repay her kindness by sending her some photos of Alice," I said to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth seemed surprised by what I had said about Caroline.She quickly said to the maid, "Go and bring my little sweetheart to me.Let Jennifer take some photos of her."

Before long, Alice was brought to us by her nanny.I was taken by her cute little face.I took many photos of her and sent them to Caroline.

It wasn't long before I received a call from Caroline.
