Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 171: Poisoning 

Skylar's POV: 

"Skylar, are you headed to work?" Robin asked just as I was about to leave.

"I made coffee for you." He gave me a cup of coffee.

"Thanks, but I'm going to be late for work. You can have it!" I waved my hands.

The truth was, I already felt embarrassed, staying in Robin's house for free.

Now, he was even making coffee for me.

I had no idea how to repay him for his kindness.

"I'll pick you up after work, okay?" Robin looked at me with a hopeful expression.

"Okay."

I couldn't refuse him two times in a row, so I no choice but to nod.

When I went downstairs, I found Linda sweeping the floor.

Now that she was a maid working for Robin, we ran into each other from time to time.

"Skylar, are you leaving?"

Linda looked up from what she was doing and smiled at me.

"Yes, I'm going to the cafe," I replied to her.

I had, on countless occasions, wanted to call Jerome and ask him to take Linda and Andy away, but I never pushed through with it.

I just couldn't bring myself to call Jerome.

I knew that if I heard his voice, I wouldn't be able to resist him.

Linda had been very friendly to me recently and dutiful in her work.

But every time I saw her, I couldn't help but think of Jerome.I really couldn't take seeing her anymore.

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

Without waiting for a response, I rushed to the cafe.

Fortunately, I still had a job to do.

Focusing on my work helped me push my messy thoughts aside.

"Skylar, go and serve the guest by the window," the cafe manager instructed.

"Okay."

I took the coffee and walked to the customer he pointed at.

Unfortunately, I tripped on something on the way and almost spilled the coffee on the guest.

"I'm so sorry,"

I immediately apologized to the guest, even though the coffee didn't touch him.

However, the guest glared at me angrily and started scolding me in a loud voice.

"Are you new here? I'm a regular at this cafe, and it's my first time to meet a waitress as reckless as you! You are so clumsy that you can't even deliver a cup of coffee properly!”
