Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved, Chapter 298: Indecent Photos
Jennifer’s POV:
We left the garden and walked Elizabeth back to her room.
As soon as we came to her bedroom door, she patted Anthony’s hand and said, “Anthony, I think you’re being
paranoid for no reason.Carl and Jennifer were playmates when they were children.You didn’t have to talk like that
to him.You made a mountain out of a molehill.”
Anthony shook his head firmly and said, “Mom, I know what I saw.The way Carl looked at Jennifer was clear to see
that he had feelings for her.I just had to remind him that she was spoken for.”
I didn’t know that my childhood playmate could give Anthony such a sense of crisis.I covered my mouth to stifle a
snicker.
In my eyes, Anthony was cute when he was jealousy and possessiveness.
He cared about me, after all.
I pulled Anthony’s arm with a smile and said, “Don’t be like that, Anthony! Carl was just trying to catch up on old
times.After all, we’ve known each other since we were kids.Why is it inappropriate to talk with a friend you haven’t
seen in many years?”
Anthony sighed helplessly and said, “Anyway, I want him to go back to his pack as soon as possible.”
I pouted my lips at Anthony like a spoiled child and said, “Okay, okay, whatever makes you happy.But, Anthony, I
would really like to sit down somewhere nice and reminisce about my childhood with Carl.Why don’t we have dinner
with him before he leaves?”
Anthony frowned.
Seeing his reaction, I quickly added, “I want you to come with me, so you can get to know him as well.Besides, I’m
the queen.No one would dare to mistreat me.”
I looked at Anthony with puppy-dog eyes and after a brief moment of silence and awkward fidgeting, Anthony
finally gave in.
“Fine.Honey, if that’s what you want, then that’s what you’ll get.But, I will be there with you.”
Anthony looked at me sternly.
“I’ll call Carl and make plans for another day.We can have dinner nearby.”
“Anthony, you are so good to me!”
I felt content, seeing that the matter had been resolved.I sat next to Elizabeth and poured her a glass of juice.

Elizabeth smiled at me and turned to Anthony.
“Anthony, how has the attitude of the elders been since you took the throne? Has anyone shown any signs of
dissent?”
“Don’t worry, Mom.All the elders have shown nothing but loyalty to me,” Anthony replied, sitting next to me.
“Only Eric seems like he still needs a little convincing, but I can handle him.He tries to make things difficult for me,
but he’s not that bad.”
Elizabeth frowned and said, “Why is he so annoying? What on earth does he want from you?”
Eric had voiced his disagreement towards Anthony becoming the new king on multiple occasions ever since Austin
got overthrown.
I expected no less from one of Austin’s confidants.
“Don’t worry, Mom.I’m slowly going to flush him out of the council and strip him of his powers,” Anthony replied
calmly.
Eric wasn’t worthy to be considered a foe.
The bigger problem at hand right now was Larry.
“Anthony, Larry didn’t make a move on our wedding, which makes me wonder if he’s afraid of us.However, I won’t
be surprised if he shows up out of nowhere and starts making trouble again,” I said with a look of concern.
Anthony held my hand tightly and replied, “I’ve asked Roy to contact his wizard friends.They will be here soon.In
fact, I’ll have a meeting with them in the afternoon to discuss how to deal with Larry.”
“That’s good.The more people we have on our side, the better.”
Anthony, Elizabeth, and I talked about Larry and the possibility of having to confront him in a fight.
But before we could talk much, Amelia and Morgan were suddenly led to us by a maid.
As soon as Morgan saw us, he said anxiously, “Mr.Jones, I’ve got some bad news! Larry is wreaking havoc again!”
Amelia’s POV:
I finally breathed a sigh of relief only after I saw Anthony and Jennifer.
The thoughts of what happened last night gave me shivers.
Last night, Morgan and I had to go back to our room right after the ceremony because I wasn’t feeling well.I went
to bed early as I usually did because of my poor health.
The maids knew my schedule, so they never disturbed me at night.
However, last night, after I freshened up and lied down on the bed, a magic carrier pigeon appeared outside the
window.
Needless to say, I was quite surprised.
Who would write to me? Taken by curiosity, I let the pigeon in and untied the envelope it was carrying.
The moment I opened the envelope, a stack of photos fell out.
My eyes widened in stunned disbelief and a scream escaped my mouth when I saw the photos.
They were nude photos of me.
All of them.
My entire world fell silent and my thoughts became blank.
My hands trembled and I dropped the photos to the floor.
This was an attack from Larry.
He took lewd photos of me in his disgusting bed after he tied and drugged me.He abused me, both mentally and
physically, every day in his log cabin.
He would often take off my clothes and force me to sleep with him.
“What’s wrong, honey?”
Morgan came in running as he heard my scream.I couldn’t think of anything else.I picked up the photos in a hurry,
but my hands kept shaking.I was very upset with Larry.
How could he be so disgraceful? I had no idea that he had collected so many nude photos of me.
“Amelia, what’s the matter?” Morgan asked nervously.
I hesitated for a while and then gave the photos to Morgan.
After all, he was my husband.
In spite of my reluctance, I didn’t want to hide anything from him.
“Larry just sent me those photos.He’s trying to blackmail me.Honey, what am I going to do?”
Morgan was taken aback.
Then, he looked at me with a pitiful expression and hugged me.
“Honey, don’t be afraid.I’m here with you.”
Morgan’s affection made me feel a little better.
I leaned on his shoulder and cried for a while.
As I picked up the envelope from the floor to burn it along with the photos, a note fell out unexpectedly.I picked it up
and unfolded it.
“Leave Morgan as soon as possible! Otherwise, I will expose these nude photos to the public!”
When I read the note, I was so furious and helpless at the same time that I almost broke down in tears.
“Don’t worry, honey.We’re going to catch Larry and put an end to this nightmare!”
Morgan comforted me again and again.

The next morning, right after breakfast, Morgan and I spent some time discussing before we finally decided to
inform Anthony and Jennifer that Larry had sent me the photos to blackmail me.
After all, they were our friends and despite my embarrassment, I had to come clean to them.
It was the only way to stop Larry.
“Good morning.What is the matter, Amelia, Morgan?” Queen asked, taking my hand, as soon as she saw us.
I managed to hold back my tears as I explained to her, “Larry sent me some nude photos of me last night.He’s
trying to blackmail me.He took them when I was his prisoner.He threatened to expose them to the public if I didn’t
leave Morgan.I don’t know what I’m going to do.”
I saw the look of shock on Jennifer’s face, but she was quick to comfort me.
“Don’t worry, Amelia.He’s just trying to rattle you.Don’t give him the satisfaction.” I nodded at her words.
“I know, but I can’t stop worrying about what he’s going to do next.It hasn’t been a month yet, and he’s already
inching to torture me again.I’m losing my mind!”
I put my hands to my face and cried bitterly as I couldn’t bear it anymore.
Morgan held me in his arms and patted my back gently.
“Don’t cry, honey.He will be punished.”
“That’s right, Amelia.Don’t panic.Don’t give in to Larry’s dirty tricks.Anthony has already contacted Roy’s wizard
friends.It won’t be long before they catch and subdue Larry,” Jennifer said softly.
I was moved by her compassionate heart.
I wiped the tears from my face and took a deep breath to calm myself down because I knew that crying wasn’t
going to help anyone.
“Thank you for your help, Mr.Jones.I believe that with the help of the other wizards, we will be able to defeat Larry
once and for all,” Morgan said to Anthony.
“Thank you, Mr.and Mrs.Jones,”
I expressed my sincerest gratitude to them.
With just a wave of Anthony’s hand, a maid came to me with a box of tissues.
As I looked up at him, he said to me, “Please, join us in the meeting room later on.Your insight on Larry will be
valuable to us in the fight.”
I nodded firmly.
I was eager to bring Larry to justice not only because of what he did to me but also for all the horrible things he had
done to the people who couldn’t fight back.
