Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 173

Linda's POV: 

When I heard that Robin had rushed Skylar to the hospital, I practically squealed with joy.The poison I had bought worked! 

"Oh, sweet revenge!" I couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Have fun in hell, Skylar."

But now, I had to find Andy and flee as soon as possible.I rushed back to my room.

"Andy, my sweetheart, let's go on an adventure!" I opened the door and found Andy sitting on a chair.

When he saw me come in, he beamed at me.

But what I saw in his hand made me stop dead in my tracks. The poison! 

"Andy, what are you doing?"

I rushed to his side and swatted the bag of poison out of his hand.

Scared out of my wits, I shook him by the shoulders.

I was just thankful I had found Andy in time.

"How could you play with this? It's not a toy!"

I was so frightened that I hurriedly threw all the remaining bags of poison into the trash can.

"Andy, let's go wash your hands.You weren't supposed to touch the bag you were holding just now."

I grabbed his hand, intending to take him to the bathroom, but he broke free from my grasp.

"But why, Mom? It tasted good.I just ate one.It was sweet!"

Andy stuck out his tongue to show me.

"Andy, what did you just say?" I felt my heart stop in my chest.

"I ate one..."

"Oh, my God!" I roared bitterly.

The very poison I prepared for my enemy was taken by my own son.I harmed my own son! 

"Andy, spit it out!" I cried desperately.

I clapped Andy on the back, hoping he would vomit out the poison.

I was on the verge of breaking down, but I needed to keep it together.I needed to save my child.

"Andy, get on the floor."

I made Andy lie prone on my lap and pressed down on his stomach hard.

Then, I stuck my finger down his throat to force him to vomit.

Sure enough, Andy started to cough violently.

I felt a glimmer of hope.

"Mom...Mom..."

But Andy didn't spit out the poison.

Instead, he began foaming at the mouth and crying for me.

Soon, he couldn't speak, and his breath gradually weakened.

My heart ached.

I felt so helpless.

"Hold on.I'll call the doctor!"

With trembling hands, I took out my phone and dialed the emergency hotline.

But before the ambulance could get here, Andy had passed out.

"Andy, wake up! Don't scare Mommy, please! My dear! I can't live without you!"

I cried hysterically, tears streaming down my face.He was my only family.What was I going to do if he left me? 

"Why are you crying? What's wrong with Andy?"

I heard Robin's voice from behind me.I whirled around and rushed to him.

Out of sheer desperation, I fell to my knees and started to beg.

"Please, please save my child! He was poisoned!"

I cried so hard that my voice went hoarse.

After a while, I couldn't even speak.

I could only grovel.

"Did Andy take the poison by mistake?" Robin frowned deeply.

"Could this be karma? You evil woman, you deserve it.But because the child is innocent, I'll try to save him."

I watched helplessly from the sidelines as Robin tried every means to resuscitate Andy.However, no matter how hard he tried, Andy couldn't spit out the poison.

"I'm sorry but I might not be able to save him,"

Robin announced to me with a  darkened expression.

"No! My son, don't die!" I cried desperately.

I had never felt so much regret in my life.

In that moment, I felt as though my world had gone dark.
