Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Chapter 64: Anthony Is Dead

Anthony’s POV:

I severely regretted splitting up with Jennifer while searching for my mother, but the time that Austin

had given Jennifer was too short.

It was nearly impossible to find my mother in such a short time.

Things got worse when I failed to find my mother and lost contact with Jennifer.

I tried to call her, but she didn’t reply.

I had a feeling that Jennifer was in danger.

I had never been so anxious before.

I searched high and low for Jennifer, foregoing sleep.

I wished that I could check every corner of Osman Kingdom.However, before Jennifer could be

found, Caroline reappeared.

Caroline had been with my mother when they had both disappeared.I decided to question her about

the incident.

“Caroline, Mom accompanied you when you went to try on a wedding dress.What happened after

you two disappeared?”I asked, looking Caroline in the eye.

“I don’t know what happened, Anthony.I was so scared.”Caroline’s eyes were wide in terror and

tears threatened to spill.

“That day, when we went to the dress shop, someone knocked me out.When I regained

consciousness, Mom was no longer by my side, and I was in an unfamiliar place.I don’t know what

happened to her.It was a struggle to find my way home.But thankfully, I made it, and you’re

here.What about you, Anthony? Have you heard any news about Mom? Is she still missing? What

about Jennifer? Where is she?”

Caroline looked very sincere.

“Both Mom and Jennifer are missing.” I sighed and frowned.

Caroline’s reaction told me that she had no idea of what had happened.

It was useless for me to continue to interrogate her.

“Don’t worry, Anthony.I’ll help you look for Mom.”

Caroline clung to my arm.

“God will watch over them.Mom and Jennifer will be safe.But since Mom is missing, I’m not in the

mood to think about getting married.Mom found a decent mate for me, and I was satisfied with

him.But I don’t want to think about getting married until Mom comes back.Is that okay, Anthony?”

“Let’s talk about it when we find Mom.” I nodded.

The next morning, I returned to Marge Island.

I came back, hoping that Jennifer had ended up there.

From sunrise to sunset, I checked the whole island, but my search turned up nothing.

By dusk, I was depressed.

As I walked along the cliffs overlooking the sea, I looked back on what had happened between me

and Jennifer.

The times we spent together had been beautiful but painfully short.

Out of the blue, I heard a familiar voice.

“Anthony!” I was shocked.

The voice was Jennifer’s.

I could not be wrong.

Oh my God! Was I hallucinating from missing her so much? I turned around and saw Jennifer

approaching me.

She was soaking wet, and her hair was a mess.

She had fresh wounds all over her body, and blood dripped to the ground.

She looked exhausted as if she had just emerged from a long and difficult battle.

Jennifer was back.

But she was seriously injured.

Had she gotten into danger while looking for my mother? The strong smell of blood and the familiar

scent of our mate bond wafted towards me at the same time.

In my mind, Zane exclaimed, “Jennifer!”

There was no doubt that she was really standing here in front of me right now.

I pulled her close and held her in my arms.

“Jennifer, you’re here! I was afraid that I’d lost you forever.”

“I’m back, Anthony.”

Her hands gripped my waist.

At that moment, all I felt was happiness and relief that she was with me.

But that didn’t last long because I felt pain coming from my chest.

I looked down and realized that I had just been stabbed by the very woman in my arms.She had

stabbed me.

“Go to hell, Anthony!” she sneered as she took out a pistol, ready to take my life.

Only then did I realize what had just happened.

This woman was not Jennifer.

Someone must have managed to disguise as Jennifer and replicate her scent so that I would drop

my guard.

Thinking quickly, I stumbled backwards to put some distance between us.

At that moment, more than a dozen werewolves rushed out from the forest.

They all carried weapons and fired their guns at me.

With my injury, I knew that I could not win if I engaged with these werewolves.

Avoiding the shower of bullets, I ran towards the edge of the cliff and jumped into the sea.

I landed with a splash.

Caroline’s POV:

Elizabeth’s and Jennifer’s disappearances were good for me.

Since Elizabeth was absent, I could finally turn down the Thomas Clan‘s marriage offer.

I wished that Jennifer would never reappear.

But before I could take it easy, I received a shocking piece of news.

Anthony had also gone missing.

He was the only person I cared about.

I still had yet to win his heart.

If he was also going to disappear, what was the point of working so hard to get rid of Elizabeth and

Jennifer? I went to the palace to find Austin and demanded angrily, “Austin, where is Anthony? Do

you know where he is? You made Mom disappear.Did you also have a hand in Anthony’s

disappearance?”

Austin, who was wearing a velvet nightgown, leaned back against his seat.

He looked to be at ease, and he smirked triumphantly.

“What are you talking about, Caroline? Anthony is dead.As for who killed him, I’m afraid you’ll have

to ask him that in hell.”

“Anthony’s dead? I don’t believe it.You’re lying!”

I screamed as I rushed up to him.I grabbed his collar in my fury.

“I Know that you are why Anthony’s gone! You liar! We worked together to get rid of Jennifer.Why

did you have to make Anthony disappear too? Give him back to me!” I cried and shouted.

“Wake up and smell the roses, Caroline!”

Austin stood up, grabbed my wrists, and threw me onto the bed.

“Anthony is dead and Elizabeth is under my control.If you don’t listen to me, I can’t guarantee your

safety.”

He pinched my chin and smiled like a devil that had just risen from hell.

“Be good, Caroline.If you don’t behave, I’ll have no choice but to kill you.And it would be a shame

because you are such a good fuck,”

Austin murmured into my ear as he started tearing my clothes off.When I heard fabric ripping, I

started to struggle in fear.

“Austin, what are you doing? Let go of me!” I tried to resist, but my strength was no match for his.

I could do nothing but watch as he gradually exposed my body for him to see.
