Jerome’s POV:
Early one morning, I received a call from Daniel.
“Jerome, I have bad news.Helen’s in trouble.I don’t know what to do.I can only ask you for help,” Daniel said breathlessly.
Stunned, I glanced at Skylar, who was still sleeping soundly.
Worried I would wake her up, I got out of bed and walked to the balcony.
“What happened? Tell me everything.”
Last time we saw Daniel and Helen, they were fine.
We even heard that they were planning to get married soon.What on earth could’ve happened to Helen?
“Here’s the thing.My father was murdered.Unexpectedly, Helen has become the prime suspect,” Daniel said angrily.
“The only witness who can clear Helen’s name is unwilling to tell the truth.Now, Helen and I can’t prove that she didn’t poison my father.I’m at wit’s end, Jerome!”

I was shocked.But I quickly tried to mask my surprise and tried to comfort him.
“I’ll talk to Elder Simon.Don’t worry.We won’t let anything bad happen to Helen.If you need anything, just let me know.We’re here to help.”
Daniel gradually calmed down and managed to tell me the whole story.
After hanging up, I immediately went to find Simon.
“Elder Simon, something bad happened to Helen.”
As soon as Simon’s door swung open, I told him the news I had just heard.
“What should we do, Elder Simon?”
“What? Oh, Helen! She would never hurt a fly!”
As soon as Simon heard what I said, his eyes widened with shock.
But soon, he managed to calm himself down.
“I’m sorry, Alpha Jerome, but this news is too distressing.I need to go to the Black Stone Pack right away.I hope this sits well with you.”
“Of course.You should be with your daughter.”
Upon waking up, I checked my phone and saw that I had missed a call from Daniel, so I called him back immediately.
“Hello, Daniel.It’s Jennifer.What’s up?” I asked casually.
I figured he was calling to invite me and Anthony to their wedding.
“Jennifer, Helen’s in trouble,” Daniel said in a sad voice, which took me aback.
“She was framed for the murder of my father, the Alpha of Black Stone Pack.I’ve just informed Jerome and Skylar.They and Helen’s father, Elder Simon, are on their way
here.”
Daniel’s news brought me to a loss.
Speechless for a while, I took a deep breath and willed myself to think rationally.
‘’How could this be? Daniel’s father was murdered? And Helen was thought to be the one behind it?’’ I realized very quickly that the situation was very serious, so I coaxed
Daniel into telling me all the details.
“Don’t worry, Daniel.Helen is our friend.We won’t just sit by and do nothing.Just hold on.We’ll go to the Black Stone Pack as soon as possible.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter exchanging a few more words, I hung up the phone and rushed to the office to look for Anthony, but it was empty.
I glanced at the wall clock and remembered how Eric had stirred trouble for us last night.
That probably meant that, at this time, Anthony was meeting the elders at the hall.
Anthony had told Eric the previous night that he was willing to have his body examined by wizards and doctors in front of everyone to prove that the Love Curse had been
completely removed.
After changing into a formal dress, I rushed to the hall.
On my way there, I bumped into Anthony.
“Jennifer, what’s the rush?” Anthony asked with a chuckle.
“Anthony, something bad happened to Helen!” I grabbed Anthony’s arm anxiously.
“Daniel just called.He said that his father was murdered and Helen is locked up because of it.”
