Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 333: Shocking News 

Jerome's POV: 

While I was washing dishes in the kitchen, my phone suddenly started to ring.I glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Jennifer.

As I put the plates back in the cupboard, I answered the call.

"Hi, Jennifer.What's up?"

"Jerome, are you at home right now? Is Skylar with you?" Her voice sounded anxious.

"There's something I need to talk to you about, but you can't tell Skylar for the time being." I was stunned.

Judging from the tone of her voice, something urgent must've come up.I took a cautious look around and saw that Skylar wasn't around.

She was probably in the bedroom.

"I'm in the kitchen.Skylar's in the bedroom.She won't hear us.What's so important? Tell me."

Jennifer sighed and said in a serious tone, "Jerome, it might be hard for you to accept what I'm going to say, but I implore you to stay calm."

I couldn't help but clench my phone.I had a hunch about what she was going to say.

"Tell me, Jennifer.Does this have anything to do with Skylar's bloodline?"

"Yeah," Jennifer replied gravely.

"Jerome, the vampires have started a war to get Skylar back.I mean, it's most likely that she's the daughter of Aldrich, the vampire king."

Hearing this, I nearly dropped the plate I was holding.

"What did you say?!"

I couldn't help but raise my voice slightly.

"Are you saying that Skylar's the reason why the vampires have started attacking? Nonsense!"

The news shocked me like a bolt of lightning.
