Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved, Chapter 293: Carl’s Invitation

Jennifer’s POV: 

When the song ended, Skylar and Jerome retreated to a corner in the hall.

Since Skylar was pregnant, they couldn’t dance for too long.

“Honey, I think Skylar and Jerome had to leave the hall because others may recognize her,”

I whispered in Anthony’s ear.

“I’ll take them to the lounge so that they can rest while you stay here so as to avoid arousing suspicion.” Anthony nodded.

“No problem.I’ll keep the guests entertained.”

Grateful that he was so easygoing, I stood on tiptoe and kissed Anthony on the cheek.

Then, I made my way to the corner of the hall elegantly.I shot a meaningful look at Jerome and Skylar, and they immediately understood and followed me discreetly.I entered an empty lounge, and not long after, I was joined by the two masked figures.

“Don’t let anyone else in,” I instructed the guard by the door.

“I need to talk to these two guests.”

Nodding obediently, the guard immediately walked to the door and closed it for us.

As soon as the door shut behind him, Skylar rushed to me.

“Jennifer!” I threw my arms around her, beaming.

“I missed you so much!”

“Jennifer, how have you been?”

Skylar pulled away to look me up and down.

“And how’s Anthony’s mother doing? You must be tired from taking care of her.”

My friend’s concern for me was like a breath of fresh air.

I looked at Skylar’s worried expression and smiled gently.

“I’m fine, and so is Mrs.Jones,” I said, pulling her to sit down with me on the sofa.

“She’s fond of me, so she doesn’t tire me out. What about you? How’s life on Rube Island?”

“Jerome has taken good care of me,”Skylar said with a contented sigh, shooting him a grateful look.

“I’m very happy there.No one knows us.Finally, I can be myself without worrying that other people will judge me!” I smiled.

Skylar’s words made me feel genuinely happy, especially knowing what they had been through.Her special power had been a source of trouble since the beginning.

I was glad to know that her problem was solved.

“Jennifer, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known what to do.Jerome looked at me and said.Then he sat beside me and hugged me.
