Chapter 139 Event Planner

• Carol’s POV
• “I had no idea, Carol. You need to believe me. If I thought for a second that my Beta would…” King Bennet’s voice trailed off as sadness consumed him. After I spent the night making love to my mate and sleeping until noon, I felt refreshed enough that I decided to give my biological father a call and discuss his Beta with him. I needed to know with certainty that he had nothing to do with this and I wouldn’t be able to know for sure unless I spoke to him myself.
• Sure, Aiden could tell that the King was furious and was blindsided by Beta’s actions, but I wasn’t the one who spoke to him. I needed to know for myself as well. I sucked in my bottom lip as I listened to the King plead his case. I tried to discover any hint of lying or fabrication from him, but I found none. Granted, it was difficult over the phone, but if I were to be honest with myself, he sounded pretty sincere.
