Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved Chapter 285: Rescue Amelia

Morgan's POV:

I had a nightmare in which Amelia was being taken away by Larry.

Amelia was in pain because of Larry and I could do nothing to stop him.I woke up in a pool of my own
sweat and realized that it was just a dream.I took a long, deep breath and let relief wash over me for a
moment, but when I looked to my side Amelia wasn't there.I jumped out of bed with a startled
expression, fearing the worst.I ran out of the ward and asked the maid sitting just outside, "Excuse me,
have you seen Amelia? Why isn't she in the room?"

When the maid saw me, she replied, "She said she wanted to go to the garden to get some fresh air."

However, I wasn't relieved by the maid's reply.

Instead, I ran to the garden as quickly as I could.

"Amelia! Honey, where are you?"

I kept calling out to her and fortunately, I didn't have to go too far before I saw Amelia sitting on the
edge of a flower bed.

"Honey, what are you doing here all alone? It's not safe for you out here.You should have told me what
you wanted to go out for a walk.I would have accompanied you."

As I hugged Amelia from behind, she looked up at me and her eyes were expressionless.

"Honey, Larry's here."

My eyes widened in horror.I was shocked.I took Amelia's hands and looked her up and down nervously.

There were no signs of injury or any bruises on her.I was a little relieved.



"Honey, Larry said he was going to kill you and make me watch." Amelia threw herself into my arms.

"He gave me a month to change my mind.If I don't go back to him willingly, he will kill everyone I hold
dear.Besides, only Larry has the antidote to the poison.I'll have to take the antidote once a month just
to stop the pain for getting worse."

Amelia's words made my heart sink.

How could Larry be so ruthless? How could he say that he loved Amelia when all he did was cause her
pain and suffering? I took a deep breath and hugged Amelia tightly.

"Don't be afraid, honey! I won't let anything happen to you.I'm going to be with you all the way.Larry's
threats won't work because we outnumber him."

"But honey, he said he was going to kill you!" Amelia said with fear in her eyes.

"Larry isn't someone you should underestimate.I don't want anything bad to happen to you.I would
rather be his slave than let him do any harm to you."

I shook my head and tried to comfort Amelia.

"Mr.Jones is also very powerful.We shouldn't underestimate him either.No matter how powerful Larry is,
he can't fight against the whole Osman Kingdom.You need to have faith in me, honey."

I helped her get up on her feet and carried her in my arms.

"Let's go back.You should get some rest."

Amelia nodded and rested her in my arms.

I walked slowly to avoid any discomfort to Amelia.



"How could Larry force you to have an abortion without feeling the slightest bit of remorse? He claimed
to love you, but never hesitated to hurt you."

"He is mentally ill, Morgan."

Amelia took a deep breath.

"I wasn't the one who broke up with him back then.It was actually his lack of courage to stand up to his
father that led him to break up with me.If he had fought for me back then, perhaps I would have felt
differently about him today.After he left me, it took me a long time to get over the past.Luckily, I met you
not long after.After I fell in love with you, I thought I would never have to see Larry again, but I was very
wrong.Morgan, a man like Larry doesn't deserve love.I regret having dated him in the first place."

I felt sorry for Larry, but Amelia was right.

He had to accept the consequences of his own choice.

I made up my mind about killing Larry.

No matter what price I had to pay, for the sake of Amelia and our dead child, it had to be done.

Only his death could give Amelia peace of mind to live her life freely.

Jennifer's POV:

After lunch, Anthony took me to an haute couture shop to pick up a dress for our wedding ceremony.

As soon as we entered the shop, Anthony called one of the shop assistants and said, "Please show us
the finest wedding dresses you have for my queen.It could be covered in diamonds for all I care.Money
is no object."



Anthony looked at me and lovingly said, "Honey, I want everyone to know that my love for you is as
strong and everlasting as a diamond."

I was touched by his words.

"Honey, there's no need to be so extravagant.Besides, I already know that you love me."

I held Anthony's hand gently.

Anthony smiled at me and said, "We are only going to get married once, so I might as well give you an
unforgettable wedding."

"Oh, Anthony, you are so nice to me! I love you!"

I stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek.

"As long as I have you in my life, I don't need anything else.You make me so happy.I'm sure I will never
forget our wedding."

Anthony smiled with satisfaction and then he urged me to look for a dress of my liking.

I finally picked a blue fishtail dress.

Its elegant design and color drew my eyes to it at first glance.

I pulled up the hem of the dress and looked at it carefully.

The shop assistant praised my choice.

"Miss, this dress suits you very well.You will look beautiful in it."

Anthony chimed in, "Of course, she will! She will be the most beautiful bride in the world."



My cheeks blushed red and I nudged him on the shoulder.

"You need to put a leash on that tongue of yours.I'm drowning in your praises."

Anthony turned his head to kiss me on my lips.

"I'm just telling the truth.If telling the truth is a crime, then please, throw me in jail."

He winked at me playfully and said to the shop assistant, "This dress has to be ready for the wedding
ceremony.Please, make sure they inlay the hemline with diamonds."

"Yes, sir.Don't worry, we will take care of it."

The shop assistant nodded in agreement.

Anthony and I went back to the royal palace afterwards.

"Anthony, we should visit your mother and keep her updated on the progress of the ceremony," I
suggested.

Anthony happily took me to Elizabeth's room to pay her a visit.

When Anthony pushed the door open, Elizabeth was reading a book and Roy was sitting beside her.

Anthony walked up to their bed and tucked her in.

"Mom, how are you?" Elizabeth put down the book and looked at us with a smile.

"I get to see you both every day. How do you think I am?"

"Mrs.Jones, Anthony and I have chosen my dress for the wedding ceremony," I said shyly.



Elizabeth looked at me as if she was pleasantly surprised and said, "That's great news.I really can't
wait to see you and Anthony get married.I will be the happiest mother on that day."

Elizabeth took our hands and put them together.

"You should always love and care for each other.Marriage requires teamwork and sacrifice.”

With a gentle smile, Anthony said, "Don't worry, Mom.We will take care of each other for the rest of our
lives."

My face was red and I looked for a place to hide as Elizabeth looked at me with a kind smile.

"We should go and see how Amelia's doing.Mom, why don't you get some rest?"

Anthony said as he held my hand and stood up.

"Go ahead.I'll see you tomorrow."

Elizabeth waved at us.

Anthony and I then went to Amelia's residence to check on her.

As soon as we entered Amelia's room, I saw Morgan gently caressing Amelia's pale face.I hurried over
and asked, "Oh my God! What happened?"

Morgan looked up at Anthony and me and sighed, "Mr.Jones, Larry came to see Amelia.He threatened
to kill me if Amelia didn't go back to him after a month."

Anthony and I exchanged worried glances with each other.

"He also said that he was the only one who had the antidote to the poison in Amelia's body.The
antidote is the only way to stop the pain from getting worse.Without it, her suffering will never end,"



Morgan explained.

Anthony rubbed his chin and thought for a while.

"I'm afraid that we have no choice but to do something.We have to subdue Larry and force him to hand
over the antidote.It's the only way."

I could tell that Amelia felt grateful, but she shook her head and said, "Mr.Jones, you don't know what
Larry is like.He won't be easy to find and even if you do, he won't be easy to catch."

I comforted her with a smile and said, "Amelia, don't worry about that.You just need to take care of
yourself.Anthony and I will take care of Larry."

Morgan nodded in agreement and said, "That's right.Don't worry about it.Just get some rest.I'm here
with you."

Anthony and I were happy to see Morgan and Amelia together.

They were good for each other.

After exchanging a few more words with them, we went back to our room to come plan our move
against Larry.

We had to prepare for two eventualities.

First, we could wait for the royal medical team to develop an antidote for Amelia.

Then, secondly, we would have to come up with a plan to capture Larry, so he wouldn't be able to
torture Amelia again.
