Chapter 56: Get Rid Of Jennifer
Jennifer's POV:
Last night, I slept over at Anthony's residence again.
When we woke up the next morning, we had breakfast together.
But before going to the training ground, I wanted to go to the hospital to check on Skylar.
I led Anthony to her ward.
Just when I was about to enter the room, I saw a shocking scene.
Oh my God! Skylar and my brother were lying together in the bed, and he had his arms around her.
They were sleeping soundly.
My eyes did not deceive me.
I hurriedly gestured for Anthony not to make any noise.
We backed out of the ward in silence.
Once we left the hospital, I smiled and said, "Anthony, I never thought I'd see the day when my brother
would find love."
"I guess he has come to like Skylar that much."
"And that's a good thing! I can stop worrying about him now that he has found his mate.Skylar is my
best friend, and now, she just may be my future sister-in-law.I'm really happy to see her and my brother
getting along."
"Jennifer, our relationship will also only get better from now on."Anthony patted my head.
"I believe you, Anthony."I smiled shyly.
"Jennifer, go ahead to the training ground.There is something I have to deal with.If I'm free later, I'll
drop by to check on you."
Anthony looked at his watch before bidding me goodbye.
After one more hug, we parted ways.
When I arrived at the training ground, I was surprised to see that we had a guest.
Caroline was also at the training ground, chatting with several trainees.
"Good morning, Miss Wilson,"I greeted her.
"Jennifer! You're here."Caroline grabbed my hands enthusiastically.
"I heard that you are the best trainee here.Can we train together today? Carson has already given his
permission.I just want to spar with you to check how strong you are."
I did not want to spar with her but if Carson had already agreed, I had no choice but to accept the
princess's request.
Caroline and I sparred while the rest of the trainees watched from the sidelines.
Highly aware that Caroline was a princess, I did my best not to hurt her.
I pulled my punches so that she wouldn't get injured.
After a few rounds of exchanging fists and kicks, I noticed that Caroline was quite good at dodging my
attacks.
Controlling my strength, I threw another punch her way.
To my surprise, she didn't dodge this time.
When my fist made contact with her chest, she groaned and fell to the ground.
I was stunned.
I didn't even hit her that hard.
Why did she collapse so easily? It was a bit suspicious how Caroline failed to dodge that last punch
when she was clearly adept at defending herself.
I didn't think much of it until Caroline exaggerated her reaction.
Covering her chest with her hands, she limped to her feet and whimpered as if she could faint any
second.
"Jennifer, I just wanted a friendly spar with you.
Why did you have to hit me so hard?"
Caroline looked at me like a hurt puppy.
"I wanted us to be friends.I trusted you..."
"But I held back when I threw that last punch.I expected you to dodge considering your abilities," I
explained patiently.
Meanwhile, several she-wolves came forward to support Caroline and curry favor with her.
"Miss Wilson, are you okay? How dare Jennifer hurt you?"
"Miss Wilson, we all saw what happened.Jennifer hurt you on purpose.You should punish her for it."
"Sir, Miss Wilson is not in good condition.We should bring her to the infirmary right away!"
So Caroline was escorted to the infirmary by a group of she-wolves.
I followed after them, keeping an eye on Caroline.
Although I knew that I was innocent, I would definitely be blamed if Caroline ended up with a serious
injury.
Along the way, the she-wolves continued to complain about me.
"Jennifer is such a bitch! How dare she hit Miss Wilson?"
"She must think she's all that just because she has the prince's support."
"She's probably just jealous of Miss Wilson.
Well, she's doomed for hurting Miss Wilson."
I stood by the door of the infirmary, listening to the she wolves blaming me.
I did not know what to do.
I wanted to defend myself, but Caroline was injured.
No matter what I said, it seemed unlikely that any of them would believe me.
It was upsetting.Not long after, Anthony arrived at the infirmary.
He quickly learned about what had happened and ordered the doctor to tend to Caroline's injury.
Caroline looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
"Anthony, I don't know why Jennifer hit me..."
"I know Jennifer.She didn't do it on purpose.Besides, it's normal for people to get hurt during training.It
seems that your injury is not serious, Caroline.You'll recover in no time.From now on, don't spar with
Jennifer anymore, okay? You are no match for her."
Anthony patted Caroline on her shoulder.
"Get some rest."
I looked at Anthony, grateful for his protection.
He knew me so well, and he always arrived in time to help me.
Outside the infirmary, the she-wolves continued to chatter among themselves.
Anthony scolded them.
"This is all a misunderstanding.Jennifer didn't mean to hurt Caroline.If anyone dares to spread rumors
about it, you may see yourself off Marge Island."
Everyone shut their mouth, not wanting to defy the prince.
Even Caroline had nothing to say to that.
I felt relieved.
Meeting Anthony was the best thing to happen to me.
I really appreciated his trust in me.
Caroline's POV:
Today, I went to the training ground to fight with Jennifer head-on.
I deliberately let her hit me in public so that I had witnesses and the other trainees would come to my
defense.
I thought that I was finally able to vent out my anger.
But my anger only grew when Anthony defended Jennifer, claiming that she could never hurt me
intentionally.
He clearly thought that bitch was innocent.
What pissed me off the most was that he told me to stop sparring with Jennifer because I was no
match for her.
He wanted me to let Jennifer go? No way! I tried complaining to Elizabeth.
"Mom, I went to the training ground today to spar with Jennifer."I showed my bruise.
"I just wanted to see for myself how strong she was.But for some reason, she attacked me, and I had
to be sent to the infirmary.The doctor said that it was fortunate I had been sent to the infirmary right
away, or there might have been consequences."
"Was it that serious?"Elizabeth hugged me.
"Caroline, my dear daughter.I'm sorry, but you shouldn't act so recklessly from now on.Jennifer is really
strong.You shouldn't have tried to go up against her.That was very dangerous."
I felt like I was going to explode with anger.
Even my adoptive mother didn't think Jennifer was in the wrong.
She even praised that bitch's strength.
"Mom, does Jennifer hate me?" I buried myself in Elizabeth's arms and sobbed.
"I like her enough to want to be friends with her, but she has been nothing but hostile towards me."
"Caroline, Jennifer is a good girl.I think what happened today was just an accident.She didn't mean to
hurt you." Elizabeth patted my hair.
"You're a broad-minded girl.You won't hold this incident against her, will you?"
"Mom, I can tell you like Jennifer a lot." I lowered my gaze, feeling defeated.
"Anthony keeps defending her too.Why do you both treat Jennifer differently? Is it because she is very
strong? Tell me the truth, Mom.Are Jennifer and Anthony a couple? I want to know what's going on with
my brother.If he has found someone he loves, I will sincerely give them my blessing."
I tried to probe her for answers.
After a pause, Elizabeth nodded.
"They have a good relationship because Jennifer is Anthony's mate.They have been destined by Moon
Goddess.Only a few people know about it.You are my daughter so I don't want to keep the truth from
you.However, Caroline, you must keep it a secret."
"So Jennifer is my future sister-in-law! No wonder Anthony's so defensive when it comes to her.I
understand now, Mom.I will try to get along with her."
I gave Elizabeth my best smile, but my heart was aching.
How could that bitch, Jennifer, be Anthony's mate?
Only I could be his mate! Jennifer didn't deserve him at all! No matter what, I had to get rid of this
obstacle.
Anyone who prevented me from being with Anthony must die.
