Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved
Chapter 201: Looking For Larry

Jennifer's POV:

After the elders’ meeting, Anthony and I accompanied Elizabeth back to her room.When we reached the door, she suddenly turned to me and patted my hand.

"Jennifer, don't worry. We'll find Larry soon.You don't know how much I like you.I'm looking forward to the day that I can finally see you and Anthony get married,” she said, looking back and forth between me and Anthony with a gentle smile.

I was deeply touched by her words, and the fact that she wanted to reassure me.

Anthony was her son.

At this moment, she must be anxious about how he would deal with the Love Curse.

And yet, she let me continue to stay here with him and even comforted me about the situation.

She was such a strong and kind person.

"Thank you, Mrs.Jones.Anthony and I will support each other and overcome all difficulties together,” I replied softly, lowering my head in shyness.

"Bring Caroline to my room.I want to talk to her," Elizabeth said to the servant standing next to her. Then, she turned back to me and Anthony.

"You two, come inside.I want you to be there too." I nodded and followed Elizabeth into the room. With the help of another servant, she sat down on the cozy armchair next to the tea table, while Anthony and I sat on two chairs nearby.

Soon, Caroline appeared at the doorway.

She looked much more haggard than before, when I had seen her in the jail.

As soon as she laid eyes on Anthony, Caroline rushed to him, dropped to her knees, and cried at his feet.

"Anthony, I know I was wrong. shouldn't have lied to you about being your mate, let alone told you that the baby in my belly was yours.Please spare me and Austin!"

Caroline begged with tears flowing down her cheeks.

Even as the car started, I continued to be caught in a dilemma.

Touching my protruding belly, I thought of Austin, who was still in the jail.

With his stubborn and unyielding personality, he would never get a chance like I did.

Could I really run away and leave him alone in the dungeon? After all, he was the father of my child. After pondering over it, I decided that I couldn't leave Austin there alone.

The guilt would eat me up alive.

With a sigh, I finally gave up on my reckless idea.

With the help of my directions, we soon arrived at the forest where Larry lived.

After everyone got out of the car, I led the way, escorted by a couple of guards.

I had to wander around the forest for a while before finally finding the log cabin where Larry lived.

I looked back at Anthony, who gestured with his chin for me to go ahead and knock the door. Gritting my teeth, I walked up alone to knock at the door.

"Larry, it's Caroline.I've escaped.l need your help.Open the door!" I shouted.

I waited nervously for a few seconds, but there was no response.

"It seems that Larry isn't here,” I turn my head back and told the others.

"Then let's search the forest to see if he’s nearby," Jennifer suggested.

Anthony nodded in agreement.

Escorted by the guards, I followed the two of them around the forest for a long time, but in the end, we found nothing.

I knew that my fate rested on whether we found Larry or not.

If we couldn't find Larry, then Anthony would really be killed by the Love Curse, and my own survival would be thrust into uncertainty.

Thinking of this, I offered to give Larry a call.

Jennifer glanced at me, took out her phone, and handed it to me.

Under her gaze, I dialed Larry's number and called him, but there was no answer.

"What should we do, Anthony? What if Larry is hiding somewhere where we can't find him?" Jennifer asked anxiously.

Seeing her in such a worried state, I couldn't help but curl my lips in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, honey.We'll find a solution somehow.” Anthony hugged Jennifer and comforted her. swallowed hard, gripped by complex feelings.It seemed that they really loved each other.in retrospect, I was like a clown for lying to Anthony that I was his mate.

"Mr.Jones, how about we enter the log cabin to see if we can find any clues there?" an old wizard who came with them suddenly suggested.

The whole group headed back to Larry's house, and I had no choice but to follow them.

The house looked the same as the last time I'd been here, filled with magic books and medicine bottles.

As the old wizard looked through the items in the house, the frown on his face grew deeper and deeper.

It seemed that he couldn't find any clues.

"Who is it?"

I was waiting idly aside when I heard a strange and slightly aged voice speak all of a sudden.
