Jennifer’s POV:
I hadn’t expected to meet Arthur in such a dramatic way.What shocked me even more was that Ella dared to show up
too.She was so bold.
Fury built up within me as I watched Arthur distort the story of the past and stir up trouble at the banquet.
At that moment, I was so angry that I wished I could rush over and tear up his hypocritical mask.
I really wanted to tell everyone that he was the traitor of the Rainbow Pack, and that he had stabbed my father, the previous
Alpha of the pack, in the back, but I couldn’t.
As long as I had no evidence to prove his evil deeds, I had to bite my tongue.
However, hearing Ella and Arthur proclaim that I was a jinx made me falter a little.
They looked so sure about their words.
Could it be the truth? Had my father and mother died because of me? No, that was impossible.
Their words were simply ridiculous.I didn’t believe a word that they said.I made up my mind that no matter what lengths I had
to go to, I would find out the truth of my parents’ death and expose Arthur’s true colors.
It was only in this way that I could avenge my parents as well as prove my innocence.
Austin kept adding fuel to the fire.
It seemed that he wouldn’t let this issue go easily.
That meant that I could only be with Anthony if I could prove that I was not a jinx.
Otherwise, I would never be able to marry the love of my life.
But how could I prove my innocence? After pondering over it for a while, I realized that there was only one way.
I had to find the elder of the Rainbow Pack who had the gift of prophecy, and ask him about the truth.
“Mr.Jones, how do you want me to prove my innocence?” I asked Austin coldly, gritting my teeth.
“Miss Smith, aren’t you the strongest of the trainees? With your skill, it shouldn’t be difficult to uncover the truth, right?” Austin
flashed me a thinly-veiled smile of mockery.
“I’ll wait for your good news.”
How annoying could he get? This evil bastard did everything he could to make things difficult for me.
Just as I was about to lose my temper at him, Austin continued, “Miss Smith, I have a suggestion.How about you go back to
the Rainbow Pack and find the werewolves who know the truth? They might be able to prove your innocence.Of course, if it
turns out that you are really a jinx, please be sensible enough to leave Anthony on your own.As long as you are not a jinx,
you can rest assured that I will not try to separate you and Anthony.On the contrary, I will personally apologize to you and
bless you and Anthony forever.What do you think?”
I clenched my fists to suppress the rage that roared inside of me.Austin was no philanthropist.
He wouldn’t be generous enough to help me with a suggestion, let alone offer to apologize.
Since he was asking me to go back to the Rainbow Pack, it was likely that there was a trap waiting for me there.
But at the moment, I couldn’t think of any other alternative.
If I wanted to prove my innocence, I could do nothing but go back to the Rainbow Pack to look for clues so that I could get to
the bottom of the matter.
In order to solve all the problems and be with Anthony, I decided to bite the bullet and go back to the Rainbow Pack.
Looking at the annoying smirk on Austin’s face, I grudgingly agreed to his suggestion.
“Mr.Jones, I’ll go and personally investigate the matter.Please give me some time.I will find out the truth as soon as possible
and prove to everyone that I am qualified to be Anthony’s mate.”
“Very good, Miss Smith.How admirable of you.”
Austin nodded approvingly, but there was sarcasm hidden in his words.
“We’ll be waiting with great expectations.”
“Jennifer, there must be some other way.You don’t have to risk going back there,” Anthony interjected, grabbing my hand.
“I’ll talk to Austin.Just stay here with me.”
I knew how worried Anthony must be about me.He always put my safety first.
However, I had to go back to the Rainbow Pack sooner or later, not only for myself, but also for my parents.
Back when I was in the Dark River Pack, returning to the Rainbow Pack to find out the truth had been my main goal.
The time had finally come for me to fulfil it.
“Anthony, please trust me. I won’t put myself in danger, “ I promised in a soft voice, interlocking my fingers with Anthony’s.
“Only when I return to the Rainbow Pack can I find out the truth.”
“Jennifer, I trust you.” Anthony nodded, pressing his lips into a thin line.
Although he respected my decision, worry was written all over his face.
Arthur and Ella’s appearance put a damper on the banquet.
After hearing that I was a jinx, many of the guests present tried their best to avoid me.
The banquet ended on a sour note.
After the banquet, Ella walked up to me.
It was obvious that she was surprised to see how close Anthony and I were.
“Jennifer, it seems that you have succeeded, right? I didn’t think you’d actually be able to seduce Mr.Jones.You should thank
your face.”
Ella’s words were laced with harsh sarcasm.
“You are so lucky.Mr.Jones loves you so much.Even after hearing that you are a jinx, he doesn’t care, and isn’t afraid to be
close to you.I sincerely bless you.”
“Yes, Ella is right,” Arthur agreed.
His sarcasm was even more obvious than Ella’s.
“Jennifer, back when it all happened, you were just a child.I was actually very worried that as a jinx, you wouldn’t be able to
get married in the future It turns out that I was worried for nothing.It’s good that Mr.Jones likes you, and I wish you both
happiness.But I hope your back luck won’t affect the good fortune of the royal family.” I sneered.
Even after everything they had done, the two of them were still trying to mock me, provoking me further with the matter of the
so-called jinx.
I hadn’t fallen to the point of being a pushover.
Since the two of them had gone too far, there was no way I would let them go.
So when Ella opened her mouth to add more insult to injury, I quickly walked up to her, raised my hand, and slapped her hard
across the face.
