Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

Thankfully, the banquet went on smoothly.

Guests kept coming to propose a toast to me, but Anthony stopped them.

"I'm sorry.My queen is pregnant now, so she can't drink."

As Anthony spoke, he would raise his glass.

"I'll drink in place of her."

True to his word, Anthony then downed the wine in his glass, which made the guests around us applaud.

Seeing how Anthony spared no effort to protect me, I felt warm in my heart.

'My child has a good father" I thought contentedly.

Before the banquet, I had fretted that Larry would try to stir up trouble.

But so far, Larry hadn't showed up, which made me feel relieved.

Anthony was thorough and had strengthened our security tonight.

If Larry dared to show up, he would only be caught.

"Honey, since you can't drink, let me bring you a glass of apple juice,"

Anthony whispered to me.

"Anthony, you are already the king of the Osman Kingdom.You don't have to do such a menial task.Just ask a maid to do it."

Despite saying this, I was moved.

He always cared about me, especially in times like this.

"Honey, I want to do it.Plus, it's just a simple thing.I want you to know that no matter what position I'm in, you will always be the apple of my eye.My queen, I'm more than willing to serve you," Anthony said with a doting smile.

He bowed to me ever so slightly.Unable to refuse him anymore, I simply nodded.His tenderness touched me.
