Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 236: Requiring An Autopsy 

Devin's POV: 

Watching my father die, it was difficult for me to conceal my glee, but I managed to pretend to be sad.

‘'Success!’' I praised myself.

Finally, the old man kicked the bucket.

The hard part was over.

My plan was going along smoothly.

Now, Daniel and Helen's wedding would be postponed, which meant Daniel's succession to the next Alpha would be postponed as well.

Stealing his position was only a matter of time.

I looked at my father's dead body indifferently.I didn't feel an ounce of guilt.

He was already critically ill after all.

Even if I didn't kill him, he was bound to die sooner or later.

Besides, he asked for it.

He had obviously favored Daniel over me.He deserved to die.

When I thought about these things, feelings of resentment and anger started to stir within me.

He always praised Daniel in front of me, whereas he always scolded me.

In his eyes, I could do nothing right.

It was simply because I wasn't Daniel.

Gritting my teeth, I fought hard to keep my expression calm.

To prevent the others from seeing through me, I stepped aside quietly.

There, I tried to come up with a way to blame my father's death on Helen.

Just then, my father's corpse was reverently covered with a piece of white cloth.

The doctors then carried his body to a gurney to take it to the morgue for an autopsy.

While this was happening, my mother wept in Daniel's arms.
