Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 349: Say Goodbye To Carl 

Jennifer's POV: 

I hurried back to my room.

After closing the door behind me, I leaned against it and took a few deep breaths to calm myself down.I didn't want anyone to suspect that there was something wrong with me.

As Carl's words just now flashed through my mind again, complicated feelings rose within me.

The truth was, deep down, from all the hints before, I had already guessed that Carl had a crush on me, but I had kept telling myself that I was just imagining things.I had never thought that it could actually be true, let alone that he would confess his feelings for me.

It was too ridiculous! That was the only reaction I could muster to this situation.

What the hell was going on in Carl's mind? He knew very well that I was married to Anthony, and was now the queen of the kingdom.

How could he say such a thing to me? My heart raced as I recalled the expression on Carl's face when he confessed his love to me just now.

It was lucky that no one else had seen it; otherwise, gossip would be spread everywhere.

I patted my chest and sighed.I took out my phone to call Anthony, but hesitated.I didn't know how to tell him about what had happened.

The only good thing was that Carl had promised not to ruin my relationship with Anthony.

Since that was the case, it wouldn't hurt for me to pretend like nothing had happened.It was not that I disliked Carl.

After all, he was my childhood playmate.

But other than viewing him as an acquaintance, I had no other feelings for him.

Moreover, such a long time had passed since we last saw each other.

I was surprised that he still remembered everything so clearly.

"What a disaster!"

I muttered to myself, shaking my head.I opened the door again and prayed in my head that Carl could find his mate and forget me as soon as possible.

"Get me a glass of hot milk," I said to a maid outside the room.

After I was brought the glass of hot milk, I sat on the sofa in a daze with the glass in my hand.

I wished that I could just erase Carl's confession from my mind, but the more I wanted to forget it, the more stubbornly his words kept ringing in my words.

Damn it! 

At this moment, the door suddenly swung open, making me jerk up in surprise.

Anthony walked into the room with a smile.
