Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 329: The Star Couple 

Anthony's POV:

After leaving the mother and baby store, I planned to take Jennifer to a luxury store to buy some more clothes—this time, for us, not the baby.

However, as soon as we walked to the street, somebody started to shout.

"It's King Anthony!"

"It's really him! I've seen him on the newspaper.Oh, my God! He's more handsome than he the photos!"

The crowd burst into an uproar.

In the blink of an eye, Jennifer and I were surrounded by civilian werewolves.I kept up my vigilance, but they all looked very friendly, with loving and awestruck smiles on their faces.

"Mr.Jones, may I have your autograph?"

"Mr.and Mrs.Jones, I love you! I've read about your love story in the papers.It's so touching!"

Truth be told, I was a little surprised.I didn't expect that Jennifer and I would be recognized so soon.

After all, we wore sunglasses when we went out to prevent us from being recognized.

Could someone have leaked our location to the public? But it didn't take long before I figured it out.

I soon realized that our cover was blown because my attendants transported the loads of baby supplies too conspicuously.

Of course we attracted everyone's attention.

Jennifer turned to me worriedly.

"What should we do? Anthony, do you think someone will try to hurt us?"

I gave her a reassuring smile.

"Don't be afraid, honey.This is the capital.They have heavy security.Plus, if there's a criminal among us, I'll catch them."

As I spoke, I turned my head to survey the enthusiastic crowd.

Suddenly, a little girl squeezed past the crowd.She was so small that she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Jennifer immediately rushed to her side to help her up.

"Be careful, little sweetie.Are you alone? Where's your family?" Jennifer asked with concern.

The little girl looked up at us and giggled shyly.

She held up the notebook and pencil in her small hands.

"My mommy really likes you, Mr.and Mrs.Jones.Can you sign this for me?"

My heart melted at her cute little performance.I nodded gently, walked over, and squatted down next to her.I signed my name on her notebook, and so did Jennifer.

"Make sure this girl gets home safely!" I told the nearest attendant who was busy trying to maintain order.

Overhearing this, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers.

"The king and queen are so kind!"

In a flash, countless notebooks and papers were held in front of me.

"Mr.Jones, we love you! Please sign for me too!"

"Me too! Can I have your autograph, Mr.Jones?"

"Long live King Anthony! He overthrew Austin's tyranny! I had no reason to refuse these enthusiastic werewolves, so I picked up a pen and began to sign as many notebooks and papers as I possibly could.”

Jennifer followed suit.

Even as I signed, I kept an eye on Jennifer, just in case there was a stray werewolf here with evil intentions.

As time passed by, more and more werewolves came to the square.

If everyone asked for our signature, Jennifer and I wouldn't be able to go back home.

Thinking of this, I called another attendant over.

"Send for one of the nearest drones."

Then, to the crowd, I shouted, "Thank you for all of your well wishes and support, but please calm down.We don't want a stampede to happen.I know you just want to remember this moment, so I'm having a drone sent to take photos of us from the sky.Everyone present can then go to the royal website to browse the group photos of me and you!"

Before I even finished speaking, the crowd burst into cheers again at the mention of group photos.

It didn't take long before the drone was positioned in the sky.

An attendant organized the crowd using an intercom.

Jennifer and I took off our sunglasses, stood in the crowd, and looked up at the drone with big smiles on our faces.

After that, Jennifer and I finally broke free from the crowd and said our goodbyes to the people.

The attendants held them at bay as I took Jennifer to a custom luxury shop.

I was a regular here, so the staff all knew my identity and respectfully received me.

"I want to have some clothes selected for my queen, something to match a red diamond," I told the shop assistant.

The shop assistant was stunned.

"Right away, Mr.Jones.We will prepare several designs for you to choose from."Jennifer squinted at me with suspicion.

"What did you just say? Red diamond?"

Seeing her at a loss, I smiled with satisfaction.

"Surprise, honey!"

After saying that, I took out a jewelry box from my pocket and opened it, revealing a ring with a 13.9 carat red diamond.

Ever since I found out that Carl was the one who gave Jennifer the Heart of the Ocean, I began to secretly look for better jewelry for Jennifer.

After a period of discussion, I finally decided on the world- famous red diamond and ordered a skilled craftsman to inlay it into a ring in the most perfect way.

"What do you think?"

I handed the jewelry box to Jennifer for her to see the shiny red diamond up close.

"Oh, my God! Anthony, I love it!" Jennifer said with a big smile on her face.

Her eyes were filled with happiness mixed with shock.

"What made you suddenly want to give me such an expensive gift?" I smiled meaningfully.

"It's more dazzling than the Heart of the Ocean, isn't it?"

Jennifer was stunned for a moment before suddenly bursting into laughter.

"Anthony, you're such a jealous type!"

I put my arm around Jennifer's waist and whispered, "Just let me be jealous.I will never allow any other man to treat you better than I do."

Jennifer blushed all of a sudden.

"Anthony, everyone can see us!"

Ignoring the dozens of pairs of eyes on us, I kissed her and said, "Put it on, honey."

After she slipped the ring onto her finger, a shop assistant came over to take Jennifer's measurements.

Then, we proceeded to choose clothing styles she liked.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When all of that was settled, I led her out of the shop and asked, "What else do you want to do today, honey? It's up to you."

Jennifer looked at me, her eyes sparkling like a child.

"I want ice cream, honey."

I chuckled but obliged her.

Just as we were sitting down at an ice cream shop, somebody suddenly approached us, holding two bouquets of flowers.

"This is for you, Mr.and Mrs.Jones.Thank you for everything you have done for this country!"

After handing us the flowers, she bowed and ran away with a red face.

Jennifer sniffed the flowers with a happy smile.

"Anthony, you're really loved by your people.I'm so proud of you."

I was also happy, but I knew I couldn't grow complacent.

"I've only done what I had to."

After enjoying the ice cream, Jennifer proposed that we go back to the royal palace.

"If we don't leave right now, we'll be besieged outside!"

I was amused by Jennifer's exaggeration.

"Okay.For the sake of avoiding the traffic, let's go back."

When we returned to the palace, Jennifer and I went to visit Amelia first before retiring to our room.

"Amelia, how have you been?"

Jennifer greeted warmly when Amelia opened the door.

When Amelia saw that it was us, she looked surprised.

"Thank you for the concern, Mr.Jones, Jennifer! I'm fine.Come in, please."

Jennifer and I were led to the sofa.

When we were seated, Jennifer asked, "Amelia, has Larry contacted you recently?"

I also looked at Amelia expectantly, waiting for her answer.She nodded seriously.

"Larry actually asked me if we could go on a walk tomorrow.He told me that he's been feeling a bit tired lately.I think it's because of the magic drug!"

Jennifer clapped her hands excitedly.

"Really? That's great!"
