Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 140: Linda's Secret 

Jennifer's POV: 

When Jerome announced the result of the paternity test, I secretly observed Linda's reaction.

I had always found her somewhat suspicious, but part of me hoped that I was thinking too much.

However, I saw the flicker of a complacent smile on her face after Skylar left.

I was sure about it.

Was she trying to get Skylar to leave willingly and have Jerome all to herself? If my guess was right, then I'd never let Linda go for deceiving two of the most important people in my life.

Moreover, Skylar was simple and innocent, but she was loyal and a great friend.

She was a perfect match for my brother.

I couldn't allow any scheming woman to come between them.

"Jennifer, I don't know what to do.Skylar locked herself in her room, refusing to talk to me.Ever since she found out the result of the paternity test, she shut me out.No matter what I say to persuade her, she doesn't care,"

Jerome told me, letting out a groan of frustration.

"Jerome, you should understand Skylar's feelings.It's hard enough for a woman to accept her mate's ex entering their lives.After finding out that Andy is indeed your child, she must feel like a third party."

I sighed and patted Jerome on the shoulder.

"But don't worry.I know how much she loves you.I firmly believe that you two will be able to cross this bridge.How about this? I'll visit Skylar later and talk to her."

"Jennifer, please.If things go on like this, I will be really worried about her."

Jerome massaged the space between his eyebrows, and there was a tired look in his eyes.

"Jerome, did I do something wrong? Is Skylar angry with me?"

Linda asked guiltily, walking over to us.

"I knew I shouldn't have appeared.It's my mistake for coming here.You and Skylar were a perfect couple.It's all my fault that your relationship is a mess."

"Linda, don't say that.Skylar is not angry with you.Don't get her wrong.I already feel bad that you and Andy had to suffer for so long.Don't worry.I'll take care of Andy.After all, he is my child,"

Jerome said, comforting Linda.

"I'm the one who left back then.You don't owe me or Andy anything, and you don't have to feel sorry for us.I'm fine.You should go after Skylar.Don't neglect her because of me.After all, you two are mates.I hope you can be happy together."

I could tell that beneath Linda's kind and broad- minded words lay a calculative intent.

"Linda, you're so considerate.The more understanding you are, the more ashamed I feel,"

Jerome said.
