Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 240: Suspecting Devin 

Daniel's POV: 

When we found out that my father had been murdered, Helen became one of the suspects.I barely slept at night because of how things were unfolding.

Early the following morning, I hurried to the cell where Helen was being held.

"Helen!"

I shouted excitedly, clasping the prison bars.

At the sound of my voice, Helen got out of a small, shabby bed.

"Daniel!"

Helen rushed towards me, tears in her eyes.

"What brings you here so early? You should've rested longer!"

I reached in between the bars and took Helen's hand.

"Mom said I could see you anytime, right? I couldn't wait.I just wish I could come inside and hug you.I'm so sorry I can't save you from this prison."

When I saw the tears rolling down Helen's cheeks, I too started to cry.

"Don't worry about me, Daniel.I'm fine here.Since they haven't proven anything, there's still hope.I know that Luna Betty will find out the truth!"

Helen smiled and squeezed my hand to comfort me.

"You're right.Mom will prove your innocence!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I turned to the prison guards.

"You'd better take good care of her."

I turned back to Helen and promised, "Helen, I'l! find a way to get you out."

"I know you will.But don't push yourself too hard, Daniel."

Helen wiped her tears and smiled.

"I trust in you."

"Actually, I stayed up all night just thinking about it.There's something off about Mandy.She gave you the perfume, but she's now denying it."

I frowned.

"She must have planned to frame me.But I can't understand why.Even though she likes you, I don't think she'd kill Alpha Marlon because of that."

At the mention of my father, Helen lowered her gaze.

"Daniel, I'm so sorry.I shouldn't have accepted that bottle of perfume.I hurt Alpha Marlon."

"Don't say that, Helen.You never could've known.What we should do now is to find out who's behind all of this."
