Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Elizabeth's POV: 

Seeing that Austin was finally getting what he deserved, I couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.

‘‘My dear husband, did you see that? Our son has finally avenged you! Thank God that justice was served.

Now, Anthony will ascend to the throne and lead our people to a bright future.

I wiped my tears with a handkerchief, thinking wistfully about the time my husband was still alive.

Then, I recalled what Anthony had gone through.

All sorts of emotions surged within me.

However, I overheard the elders scolding Anthony because he refused to give up his mate in spite of the Love Curse.

Oh, that terrible curse! Austin had gone through lengths to get rid of Anthony, even going so far as to collude with the wizard Larry.

How vicious they were! Worse still, Larry had disappeared without a trace.

With him gone, any hope of lifting the curse was dashed.

In order for Anthony to survive, he had no choice but to give up his love.

But thinking about how good a girl Jennifer was and how much Anthony loved her, I truly felt sorry for them.

I wiped my tears away and watched as Anthony stepped in front of Jennifer to protect her.

For a moment, I didn't know what to do.

"Mr.Jones, Are you really going to give up the throne for the sake of your mate?" Eric pressed on relentlessly.

Obviously, he still wanted to restore Austin's power.

Seeing this, I took a deep breath and asked the maid to help me to Anthony's side.

"Everyone." I raised my voice and looked at Eric meaningfully.

"Austin has already confessed to his crimes.No matter what, he is not qualified to be the king.Now, the only one fit for the throne is Anthony, who has proven himself time and time again."

"Mrs.Jones, we fully recognize his capabilities, but we have to consider the welfare of the kingdom.He has been cursed.If he doesn't draw a clear line between him and Miss Smith, we can't just let him take over the throne.We can't support a king who may die at any time."

Primo bowed respectfully to me, but his tone was very firm.

"If that's the case, then I don't see the need for Anthony to ascend to the throne so soon.He can temporarily oversee the state affairs, while I can do my best to assist and supervise him.Although I'm old, I can still work," I said firmly.

After thinking it over, I knew that giving Anthony a chance to take over the throne was the right thing to do.

Like his father, he was also a man who valued those closest to him.
