Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

Caroline invited me to go wedding dress shopping with her.

I thought it was a little strange, but she did promise me that she had thought things through and was going to marry the lycan Elizabeth chose for her.

She looked like she meant it.

But I still had an odd feeling in my stomach.

Did she really give up on Anthony? It was obvious that Elizabeth cared about her.

If Caroline liked someone other than Anthony, Elizabeth wouldn't have forced her to marry someone from a faraway land.

It would be great if Caroline understood that Elizabeth was doing all of this for her own good.

Seeing that Caroline was no longer stubborn, Elizabeth looked really happy.

Caroline held her arm and snuggled up to her like a loving daughter.

I walked behind them and inexplicably felt relieved.

If Caroline could really give up her feelings for Anthony, everyone would be happy, especially me.

At least now I didn't have to deal with her bitchy attitude.

Yet, at the same time, I couldn't shake off the feeling that Caroline was acting strange.

"Jennifer, can you help me choose a dress?"

Looking at the various necklaces and wedding dresses in the shop, Caroline looked at me with her doe eyes.

I looked at her.

She was smiling, and she looked innocent enough.

It seemed she was actually looking forward to the upcoming wedding.

"Okay."

The shop assistants laid out all the new styles of the season for us.I helped her pick something out with Elizabeth.

"Try it on, my dear."

Elizabeth looked at Caroline with a big smile.

"How will we know whether it's the right one if you don't try it on?"
