Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

I couldn't believe my ears.I stood bolt upright and shouted, "What?! Mrs.Jones was attacked? By who? You must be joking!"

"Oh, how I wish I was joking..."

Anthony's eyes burned with untethered rage.

In that moment, I knew he was being serious.

"Oh, my God! How on earth did this happen? Who would be so bold as to trespass the royal palace?"

I too was enraged.

Elizabeth was the kindest, most considerate woman I knew.Why would anyone want to hurt her? 

"How is she, Anthony? Was she seriously injured?"

"Fortunately, the guards made it in time.Mom is recuperating now."

Anthony frowned and sighed.

"I need to go back to the royal palace as soon as possible to find out who did this."

"Anthony, I'll come with you!"

I volunteered immediately.

However, Anthony shook his head firmly.

"Jennifer, you've just become the Alpha of the Rainbow Pack.Now is an incredibly critical time.If you leave, the public's view of you will be affected, which will undoubtedly affect management in the future." I sighed helplessly.

I knew that Anthony was right, but how could I let him deal with this matter alone? Elizabeth had just been attacked.

It was my duty to go to her and take care of her.

"Anthony, I can't turn a blind eye to what happened to your mom.We're family, aren't we?"

I looked at Anthony with determination.

"Don't worry, Jennifer.Mom would never blame you for staying.If she knew the situation, she would've wanted you to stay here, too," Anthony said gently, taking my hand.

I lowered my gaze, filled with frustration and remorse.

"Anthony..." Just then, Simon cleared his throat.

"Alpha Jennifer, don't worry.You should join Mr.Jones."
