Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 86: Drugged

Caroline's POV:

Thanks to my persuasive skills, Anthony finally relented.

I knew he wouldn't turn me down.

After all, we had grown up together, and he still viewed me as his little sister.

But I wanted so much more than that.

I wanted to be his mate, not his sister! Being so close to Anthony made me smile with satisfaction.

Everything was finally going according to my plan.

"Anthony, I'm going to check out a couple of jewelry stores, okay?" We were walking along a bustling street.

In order to make Anthony feel at ease with me, I pretended to be a good girl and kept a safe distance from him.

I knew that he was in love with that bitch, Jennifer.Getting too close to him was risky.

"Sure.What do you plan on buying?" Anthony asked in confusion.

"Once Jennifer returns from the Rainbow Pack, you two will get married." I feigned kind-heartedness and open-mindedness.

"To show you my sincerity, I want to pick out some jewelry for Jennifer as a wedding gift.And Anthony, since you're Jennifer's mate, you know her best.That's why I wanted to you come along.I need your help in picking out a gift for her.I want to surprise her when she gets back!"

"Sincerity?" Anthony echoed questioningly.

"Of course!" I nodded.

"Anthony, I can see that you love Jennifer.I'm sure nothing in this world can shake that love.I already consider her my sister-in- law, so I hope you two live a happy life together."

I tried my best to sound sincere.I really hoped that Anthony would be moved and trust me.

"Caroline, you've grown a lot. I'm happy for you."

Anthony nodded, seeming to have fallen for my performance.

"I wish you a happy life too.I hope you find a suitable mate soon."

"Thank you, Anthony." I smiled sweetly.
