Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 121: Man-made Loss Of Memories 

Jennifer's POV:

My injury seemed to be a blessing in disguise because Anthony was taking care of me in the ward all the time these days.

The car accident turned out to be a happy accident for me, for it made Anthony figure out his true feelings for me.

"What's that in your hand?"

Anthony asked the nurse.

"It's just medicine," the nurse replied.

Anthony enquired her about my physical condition while carefully checking the medicine she gave me.

I felt safe and moved. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Anthony even checked the medicine given to me.

It seemed that he still really cared about me.

I was moved by his concern for my well-being.

"Anthony, I feel much better after staying in the hospital for a few days.I want to go back home to rest, okay?"

I waited for Anthony's opinion.

"Let's hear what the doctor has to say about your condition.If he says you can leave the hospital, we will go through with the discharge formalities."

Some time passed before my attending doctor came in.

Looking over his glasses, he examined me carefully and said that I had almost recovered, but that I still needed time to heal completely.

Now that Anthony got the doctor's confirmation that my condition was stable, he finally agreed to my request to leave the hospital.

"Then let me drive you home myself."

"Okay."

There was no way I would refuse.

Even if Anthony said he was moving in with me and would stay with me every day, I would happily agree.

After I got discharged from the hospital, Anthony drove me, Dylan, and Skylar back to Simon's villa.

When we arrived there, we found that Daniel and Helen had already made dinner.

The group of us had dinner together to celebrate my discharge from the hospital.

Since I was still a little weak and lightheaded, Anthony was sitting next to me and taking care of me like a doting boyfriend.

The atmosphere at the table was lively.

"Thank you for taking care of me all these days, everyone.I'd like to propose a toast to all of you."

I stood up and raised my glass.

Anthony stood up along with me and clinked his glass against mine.

But to my surprise, before I could even take a sip, Anthony grabbed my glass and gulped it down completely.

Since I hadn't recovered yet, he didn't allow me to drink.

"By the way, this is Jeff, a friend of Dylan's.He's a doctor."

I introduced our new friend, Jeff, to Anthony.

"It's an honor to meet you, Jeff,"

Anthony held out his hand.

"The honor is all mine, Mr.Jones."

Jeff shook hands with Anthony, with a flattered look.

As everyone else at the table drank, they began to loosen up.

Skylar was cracking jokes.

"Jennifer, when are you and Anthony going to get married and have children? Dylan and I can't wait any longer.He's too concerned about your marriage."

"Why is Dylan concerned about Jennifer's marriage?"

Anthony looked confused.

"Anthony, I forgot to tell you.Dylan is my brother.We were reunited not long ago.I guess you don't remember it because you lost your memories."

"You're right, Jennifer.I'm sorry, I don't remember it."

A look of surprise crossed Anthony's face.

"Mr.Jones, even though you have lost your memories, you can't deny your relationship with Jennifer.You should marry her as soon as possible, " Skylar teased.

I saw the tips of Anthony's ears turn red, and it was clear that he was at a loss what to say.

"Skylar, my brother is older than me.I can't get married until he gets married first," I replied playfully.

Knowing that I was helping him out, Anthony held my hand under the table and whispered, "Thank you for your understanding."

"Anthony, I don't want to rush you into anything.I'll wait for you to regain your memories.There's no hurry for us to get married."

I gave Anthony a comforting look.

I didn't want him to worry about it.

Jeff suddenly asked, "Mr.Jones, how did you lose your memories?"

"I don't know either.I had a long sleep, and after I woke up, I forgot many things.The last thing I remember was that I went to the packs to select trainees."

Jeff frowned as he listened to this.

"Mr.Jones, it doesn't sound like you lost your memories by accident, but more like someone sabotaged your memories on purpose.I think it might be caused by some black magic of a wizard.I've been a student of the medical sciences over the years, and I've met several patients who were enchanted with some black magic.Their symptoms looked very much like your own."

When I heard this, I felt a glimmer of hope bloom in my heart.

If the reason for Anthony losing his memories was man-made, then he might be able to regain his memories.

"Do you know any wizards? Can you help Anthony regain his memories?" I asked Jeff eagerly.

"I have a friend who's acquainted with a wizard.I can ask him to invite that wizard to check if Mr.Jones' loss of memories was indeed caused by some black magic."

"Jeff, thank you very much.That would be a great help to us."

We sincerely thanked Jeff.

Anthony's POV:

After dinner, I stayed with Jennifer.

I finally had the chance to explain how I really felt to her.

"Jennifer, it's not that I don't want to marry you.It's just that I've lost my memories and a lot of things in my head are mixed up right now."

I didn't want Jennifer to worry too much, or even to misunderstand that I was postponing the marriage because I didn't want to marry her.

"I Know.I'm just grateful that we are still together.Now that you have lost your memories, I am not in a hurry to get married.As long as you are with me, I will be very happy,"

Jennifer said as she held my hand.

I was moved.

At this time, I saw a drawing in her room.

After taking a closer look, I found that it was a drawing of me.I was pleasantly surprised.

"I drew it when I missed you,"

Jennifer explaining with a smile when she saw my gaze on the painting.

"I'm sorry that I made you suffer.I'll always be with you.By the way, what are you doing here in the Rainbow Pack? Is there anything I can do to help you?"

I hated the fact that I didn't have any memories of the past.

Otherwise, I could have helped Jennifer a long time ago.

"Anthony, in fact, we would have gotten engaged a long time ago, but I was falsely accused of being a jinx at the royal banquet.Austin and the elders supporting him took that as an excuse to separate us, and to make things difficult for you and your mother.I came to the Rainbow Pack to find out the truth about my past from Elder Tony, so that I can prove that I am not a jinx.Only in this way can I go back and marry you."

It turned out that we were in such a predicament.

"By the way, how is your mother? Is she fine?" Jennifer asked me.

"She fell into a coma before I woke up."

"How could that be? She was fine when I came here."

Jennifer's eyes widened in shock.

I wondered about the real reason why my mother was in a coma.

Someone had even attempted to drug her last time.

Who was behind all this? Jennifer seemed to be feeling bad after hearing that my mother was in a coma, so I coaxed her, letting her lean against my shoulder.

Then, Jennifer took me to see Tony.

In Tony's room, we found Jeff taking care of Tony.

When Tony saw Jennifer, he suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of her, crying bitterly.

"I'm sorry.Please forgive me!”
