Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved Chapter 338: Call Elizabeth Mom

Elizabeth's POV:

As soon as the maids put Jennifer to bed, I heard someone shouting, "Mrs.Jones, bad news! Caroline
fainted!"

I felt my heart leap to my throat in an instant.I ran out as quickly as I could and found Caroline in the
arms of the maid with her eyes closed.

"Hurry up! Put Caroline on the bed too and bring the first-aid kit!"

Tears welled up in my eyes, but I knew that crying wouldn't solve the problem at hand.

"It's all my fault! This wouldn't have happened to her if she hadn't saved me in the first place!"

Austin came running to us with a pale expression.

He knelt down and touched the back of his palm to her forehead before he checked her wrist and neck
for a pulse.

After a few seconds, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There's no need to worry.Caroline must
have fallen unconscious due to stress, but she will be fine.She just needs to get some rest."

Austin's words gave me the respite I was searching for.

"Thank God!"

Austin turned his head to the maid and said, "Go and get two sets of clean clothes."

I was moved by his words because I didn't expect Austin to be so considerate.



"Austin, that’s very thoughtful of you, but you need to look after Caroline.I'll be fine as long as there is a
maid to help me," I suggested to Austin.

However, Austin shook his head and said, "Caroline will be fine.She just needs to get some sleep, but
you and Jennifer need to see a doctor as soon as possible!"

I smiled approvingly at him and said, "Don't worry.We have brought a doctor with us.I will call for him
once I change Jennifer's clothes."

"Okay, if you need anything, please don't hesitate to let me know." Austin nodded, turned around, and
left.

The maid brought two sets of clothes right after he left.

After I got changed, I helped Jennifer change into a clean set of clothes.

Shortly after, the doctor came into the ward with a medicine box in his hands.

After checking both me and Jennifer with a stethoscope, he said to me, "You're both very lucky.A little
longer and it could have been fatal.Fortunately, there is nothing to worry about.You should be able to
make a fast recovery with a few days’ rest."

I breathed a sigh of relief and waved at the doctor.

"I see.Thank you very much, doctor.You may leave now.”

After the doctor left, I took out a handkerchief and wiped Jennifer's face.Unexpectedly, at this moment,
Jennifer suddenly opened her eyes and looked at me with a confused expression.

"Mom..."

"Good girl, you're finally awake." I pulled her into my arms with excitement.



"Thank God! I don't know how I would face Anthony if something bad happened to you! "

“Jennifer, how are you feeling? How is the baby? Do you need me to call the doctor here again?"

Jennifer's eyes gradually became clear and she shook her head.

"I'm fine, Mom.I think the baby is all right too.I must have choked on a few mouthfuls of seawater.Other
than that, I feel just fine."

Relief washed over me as I nodded.

"That's good.Jennifer, you can't imagine how afraid I was when the ship got capsized.I thought we were
going to die.Thanks to Caroline and Austin.If it weren't for them, the consequences would have been
unimaginable.In fact, Caroline fell unconscious just a while ago.I think it has something to do with her
saving us."

Jennifer's eyes widened in shock and she tried to get out of bed.

"What? Caroline and Austin saved us? Oh my God! Is Caroline all right? I must see her at once!"

"No way!"

I pushed her back to bed and glared at her.

"Caroline is fine.You're the one who can't afford to act recklessly with a baby in your womb.Lie down
and get some rest.I won't let you get out of this room until the doctor runs a comprehensive test and
discharges you."

At this time, Austin came in from outside with two bowls of hot soup.

"Jennifer, you're awake! I'm glad to see that you're fine.Here, have some soup.It will make you both feel
better."



I handed a bowl of hot soup to Jennifer and looked at Austin up and down.

When I saw that his clothes were still wet, I felt sorry for him.

He seemed so concerned about us that he neglected his own health.I was utterly touched by his
kindness and I said to him, "Austin, go and get changed quickly.Don't worry about us."

Austin shook his head and said, "I'll be fine.I can handle a bit of cold."

"How is Caroline? Has she waken up?" I asked.

"She's still sleeping, but I've changed her clothes already," Austin replied.

Jennifer's eyes reddened when she looked at Austin, "I didn't expect you to put your own life at risk to
save us from such a dangerous situation.Austin, I don't have the words to express my gratitude."

Austin seemed surprised by Jennifer's word and he looked away to hide his emotions from her.

"I'm just glad that you're both safe.Think of it as me atoning for my sins!" I smiled at Austin with relief.

He really seemed like a changed man.

I couldn't believe that this kind-hearted man standing before me was the same Austin I had known for
many years.

If this had been in the past, he wouldn't have raised a finger to help me and Jennifer.

"Austin, I am so happy to see how much you've changed.I'm very proud of you."

I looked at Austin sincerely as I spoke to him.I couldn't help reaching out to hold his hand.



"Thank you, Austin.I begged Anthony to spare you and Caroline.I think that is the most sensible
decision I have ever made in my life."

Austin's body stiffened when my hand touched his and his cheeks blushed a tint of red.

"There is no need to thank me.I...did what anyone would do if they were in my place!"

"Austin, not everyone would do what you did.You've finally grown up."

I looked at Austin with adoration.

Needless to say, he had committed unspeakable mistakes in the past, but my husband and I were also
to blame for the way he had turned out.

As parents, we had failed to teach him the importance of compassion and love.

Fortunately, Austin showed me that it wasn't too late to make a change.

If Anthony and I had decided to kill him, Jennifer and I might not have been alive now.I couldn't help but
sigh at the thought of how everything in life eventually came to a full circle.

"Austin, Jennifer, and I really appreciate what you did for us."

I patted the back of Austin's hand.I used to despise Austin, but now I felt the opposite.

Perhaps, my husband in heaven would be happy to see how things had changed for the better down
here.

"No, I'm the one who should thank you.Thank you for forgiving me." Austin shut his eyes tight.

"Mom..."



Although his words were loud and clear, I was so surprised, that I wondered if I had heard him
correctly.

Mom? Did Austin just call me Mom? Really? He hadn't called me Mom for a very long time.

The last time I heard him call me that was when he was just a child.

Oh my God! I covered my face as I felt my tears pouring out of my eyes uncontrollably.

I hugged Austin and said, "Austin, my boy! I'm so happy today!"

Although Austin was not my biological child, I still loved him as my own son ever since he was a child.

Unfortunately, it took us until now to finally get close to each other.Who would have thought that we
would finally reconcile one day?
