Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 243: Pregnant 

Jennifer's POV: 

Anthony and I attended the celebration party together.

As one of the protagonists of the party, I tried my best to look lively and in high spirits, regardless of how exhausted I was feeling.

Maybe it was because of the long and tense journey to the snow mountain that I felt so fatigued, and even a little uncomfortable.

But I didn't want to make Anthony worry about me, so I plastered a smile on my face and hid my weariness from the guests.

"Congratulations to our future king and queen.May you live a healthy life together!"

One of the elders took the lead in proposing a toast to me and Anthony.

"Thank you."

After raising his glass to the elder, Anthony downed the wine in one go.

Standing next to him, I followed suit, but I couldn't bring myself to drink more than a sip of the wine.

For some reason, the wine left a bad taste in my mouth.

"Everyone, we should choose a suitable date for the coronation ceremony of the king and queen," Elizabeth said, looking at all the guests for their opinions.

The crowd launched into a hearty discussion at once.I listened to them somewhat absent-mindedly, still in a daze over Elizabeth's words.

Even after all this time, I couldn't believe that I was actually going to be Anthony's wife, and the queen of the Osman Kingdom.

A year ago, the mere thought that something like this could happen to me would have been ridiculous, to the point of being laughable.

I knew that being the queen was the dream of many, many girls, but somehow, the prospect didn't excite me at all.

In my eyes, being the queen was a heavy responsibility, and not just a noble title to be flaunted.

What I was really excited about was getting to spend the rest of my life with Anthony.

If he didn't ascend the throne, he and I would live as an ordinary but happy couple.

However, being the king was Anthony's destiny.

And since that was the case, to be by his side, I would try my best to be a good queen.

"Then it's settled.The coronation ceremony will be held in ten days,"

Elizabeth announced after discussing the matter with the elders.

"Isn't that great, honey?" Anthony leaned in and whispered in my ear.

"We're finally getting married."

I smiled at Anthony, but the discomfort in my belly became stronger and stronger.I felt a stab of annoyance at myself.I couldn't let him down at this time.

Gritting my teeth secretly, I held on.

More and more people began to propose toasts to me.

"Congratulations, Jennifer."
