Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved
Chapter 172: Pregnant

Robin's POV:

It was the first time I voiced my feelings to Skylar, but she rejected me immediately.

In the beginning, I got close to Skylar because she intrigued me.

I had never met such a powerful woman before.

When I got to know her more, I gradually found myself attracted to her kindness and toughness. Now that I knew I was in love with her, I wanted to take care of her.

But she refused to accept my love.

"Skylar, I think we can still try being together.If you find that you still can't love me after a while, I'll let you go."

Raising my head, I looked at Skylar and waited for her answer.

However, I saw that all the color drained from her face and she was clutching her belly, as though she was in excruciating pain.

"What's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"My stomach..."

Skylar was in too much pain to complete the sentence.

Sweat broke out on her forehead.

I knew instantly that something was severely wrong, so I hurried to grab my phone with trembling hands.

"Hello, doctor? There's a woman here, she needs medical attention right now.Please send an ambulance here as soon as possible.Please!”

Just then, my eyes landed on the unfinished cup of coffee on the table.

'Is it because of the coffee?’

"Skylar, try to puke out the coffee you just drank!"

I ran to her side and urged her to vomit.

Finally, she started to gag and spit out the coffee she had just drunk, but she still looked very weak. My heart belonged to Jerome.

From now on, my purpose was to take good care of our child and raise it well.

"Robin, you don't have to worry about me.I can take care of myself." I really couldn't take advantage of him.

His staying here only made me feel worse.

"You're still weak.It'll be better if I stay.I'm worried about you.”

Robin insisted, so I couldn't say anything more.

What mattered now was getting enough rest for the baby.

Thinking of this, I sank deeper into my pillow and closed my eyes.When I woke up the next morning, I found Robin had bought breakfast for me.

"Now that you're pregnant, I got you some healthy food," he said with a smile, holding up the bag of food.

"But if you don't like it, I can go out and buy something else.”

"Thank you, Robin." I was moved, and was about to sit up, but he stopped me.

"Don't try to get up.You're too weak.I'll feed you."

I smiled awkwardly but eventually caved and let Robin feed me.

"I think Linda's behind this," I said seriously.

"She was the one who gave me the coffee yesterday.”

"Don’t worry about that now.Just focus on getting better.I'l go back and investigate Linda myself." "Thank you,” I said gratefully.

But now I owed him yet another favor.

"Skylar, may I ask you something?"

"Of course.”

"Is this baby's father the one you love?"

Yes:

Seeing the expression on Robin's face, I thought for a while and added, "So I really can't accept your love Robin, you deserve someone better than me.”

"Don't overthink it.I'd be more than happy to take care of you and the baby."

"Thank you."

"I'll let you rest now.l need to go home and confront Linda.I'm worried she'll make a run for it." "Okay.Thank you."

With Robin gone, I was left alone in the ward with my thoughts.

Jerome instantly came to mind.

Anyway, he was the father of the baby.

Was I supposed to tell him? I took out my phone and started typing.

"Jerome, I'm pregnant and it's your child."

After thinking about it for a while, I quickly erased the message and threw my phone on the bed. No, I couldn't talk to him.

If Jerome found out that I was pregnant with his child, our relationship would grow even more complicated.

With a sigh, I retrieved my phone and tapped on the gallery to scroll through old photos.

Tears welled up in my eyes and blurred my vision when I saw Jerome's smiling face.

"Baby, should we tell Daddy about you?" I touched my belly gently, tears streaming down my cheeks.

At the thought of Jerome, my heart hurt. What should I do?
