Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 114: Favor From A Friend

Caroline's POV: 

I kept tossing and turning last night.

I found it difficult to sleep because Anthony was clearly keeping a polite distance from me.

I woke up in the middle of the night, but I kept my eyes closed and pretended to be asleep.

When Anthony's phone rang and he stepped out of the ward, I knew that someone important must have called him.

Driven by curiosity, I quietly tiptoed over to the door and eavesdropped on his conversation.

But Anthony spoke in a low voice and I couldn't get any nearer, so I could only get bits and pieces of information.

I learned that he was suspicious of me and that was why he asked someone to keep an eye on me.

He also made an appointment to meet with the other person.

Who did he ask to investigate me? Did he have suspicions regarding the baby in my womb? Who on earth was he meeting in the afternoon? Could it be Jennifer? I had so many questions.

Before Anthony ended the call, I tiptoed back to my bed without a sound.

I covered myself up with the blanket and pretended that I was still asleep, but on the inside, I was deeply bothered.

I didn't know how to make Anthony believe that this child was his.

After giving it some thought, I decided to give him reasons to stay by my side the whole afternoon.

I could not let him go out and leave me.

I had been in a constant state of panic ever since Jennifer appeared.

If Anthony went to meet Jennifer and that bitch managed to sway his feelings in her favor, my chances with him would get even slimmer.

I heard the door swing open.

Anthony returned to the room, and I continued pretending to be asleep.

I didn't open my eyes until the doctor came in to check up on me.

"This lady is getting better.She can be discharged after two days.Please take good care of her, sir," the doctor told Anthony.

"Okay.Thank you very much."

Anthony thanked the doctor.
