Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 363: The Past Between Roy And Cynthia 

Cynthia's POV: 

Just as I turned around to leave, Roy suddenly clutched his chest and collapsed to the ground.

"Oh, my God!" I immediately knelt beside him to help him up.

"Roy, what's wrong?"

When I saw his face, I found that he was extremely pale and sickly.

"Roy, what happened?"

Jennifer and Anthony both rushed to help us when they saw Roy faint out of nowhere.

"Did you get injured in the fight with Larry?" Morgan pursed his lips worriedly.

"Mrs.Jones, can you ask the doctors to treat Roy as well?"

I hoisted Roy's arm over my shoulder to support him.

Anxious for his health, I turned to Jennifer pleadingly.

Before Jennifer could answer me, Roy shook his head weakly.

"No need.I just suffered some flesh wounds.I can use an incantation to treat it myself."

"Don't exhaust yourself, Roy."

Jennifer eyed Roy worriedly.

"Don't worry, Mrs.Jones.I know my own body.Thanks for the concern though."

Roy smiled feebly and tried to stand on his own two feet.

It pained me to see Roy being so stubborn, but I knew him well.

He probably didn't want to inconvenience Jennifer at a time as critical as this.

"I'll help him," I said resolutely.

"Don't worry, everyone.I'll take good care of him with my healing magic."

Morgan and Jennifer looked at me dubiously, but I nodded at them reassuringly.

Seeing this, they finally nodded.

"Thank you, Cynthia," Jennifer said gratefully.

"No, I don't want to bother you—" Roy started to say anxiously.

"It's fine, Roy!" I interrupted him, shaking my head firmly.

"Let's go."

After saying goodbye to everyone, I helped Roy back to his room.
