Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 255: Depressed Betty 

Betty's POV: 

My husband was an excellent Alpha, but I didn't expect that Prince Anthony would personally come here to attend his funeral.

The future king's presence in our pack was an honor.

But when Jennifer explained that she and Anthony had actually come for Helen, I was shocked.

I had no idea that Helen was good friends with Anthony's mate—the future queen of the Osman Kingdom.

Helen's friends were all big shots.

This only made me believe more in the fact that Helen was innocent.

When Anthony started to question Mandy, I watched quietly by the sidelines, waiting to see how the prince would pass judgment.

I was quite satisfied with how decisively he and Jennifer acted.

It took them but a few words to convince Mandy to tell the truth.

It turned out that Helen truly had no intention of killing my husband.

'Marlon, we didn't misjudge Helen! I thought with relief.But just as I was about to feel excited, Mandy suddenly pointed a finger at my eldest son, Devin.

I felt my heart stop in my chest.I simply couldn't believe it.

It's true that Devin was always selfish.I was always painfully aware of this fatal flaw, which was why Marlon and I decided to put our hope in our youngest son, Daniel.

Although we thought Daniel was the best choice for the Alpha position, Devin was still our son.

It was impossible for us not to love him, despite his stubbornness.

Now, Mandy was accusing my son of murdering my husband.

Although we had no way of proving this yet, I still felt as though I was shoved into an icy lake.

How could it be? Surely, it wasn't true! Devin was our child.

How could he poison his own father? It was a heavy blow to me.

I couldn't wrap my head around the possibility that Devin was the murderer.

I knew it, my knees buckled from underneath me and I collapsed to the
