Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 348: Carl's Confession 

Jennifer's POV: 

These days, Anthony was so busy dealing with government affairs.I didn't want to cause him any more trouble, so Elizabeth and I didn't dare to bother him.

Whenever we had free time, we would go for a walk in the garden with Caroline.I supported Elizabeth by the arm as we walked along the garden path.

"Mom, the elders are now convinced.Austin's victory in the first battle must've surprised them!"

At the mention of the most recent battle, Elizabeth lit up.

"I told you that Austin’s a brave soldier! Now he has changed and turned over a new leaf.Without his stubbornness anymore, he'll be even stronger than before."

"I'm so proud of him!"

Caroline, who was walking beside Elizabeth, announced happily.

"I hope he'll defeat the vampires soon and come back safely.Alice and I miss him so much!"

When we reached the end of the garden path, I couldn't help but think about Anthony.

"Mom, I think Anthony will be exhausted from working all the time.I'll bring him some desserts to reward him.Please excuse me!"

Elizabeth smiled at me knowingly.

"Go ahead.I'm sure he'll be happy to see you."

Caroline nodded and smiled, too.

"Say hello to Anthony for me please."

"Okay!"

After saying goodbye to them, I went straight to the kitchen and personally prepared some of Anthony's favorite desserts.

When a maid saw me pull a batch of freshly-baked desserts out of the oven, she reached for a plate and was about to put them on the plate.I quickly stopped her.

"It's okay.I'll do it myself."

I picked up the plate and carefully packed the desserts before putting it in a lunch box.Then, I strode out of the kitchen and excitedly bounded over to Anthony's office.

When I walked into his office, I found Anthony sitting alone at his desk, rifling through some documents.

As soon as I walked to him, he stood up in surprise and asked, "Honey, what brings you here?"I smiled shyly and held up the lunch box.

"I figured you were so busy lately, so I wanted to give you a little treat.Look, I made these myself!"

Anthony took over the lunch box, unpacked the plate of desserts and set it on the desk.

Then, he pulled me to sit on his laps and whispered, "Thank you, honey.These look amazing."

I picked up a piece of cake and fed it to Anthony.
