You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 79

"Reporters rushed into the ward when Franklin was there to visit Granny that day. In order to cover up

her illness, he staged this scene. This video has been edited. They were asking if Grandmother

Holland was in the ICU behind."

Coralie stood still. She was nervous at first when she thought about explaining this matter to Skylar. It

wasn't because she felt guilty, but she felt that these claims were unfounded. These despicable

reporters had put together the bits and pieces and made it look like it was something real.

However, when it came to her explanation, she felt very relaxed. After all, it was just a

misunderstanding.

"Really?"

Skylar frowned slightly and looked at Coralie. He was so tall, and when he looked down at Coralie, she

felt an oppressive aura from him.

"It's true. Your friend Harvey was also there that day. You can ask him."

At this time, Coralie really felt that it was important to have a witness.

"Oh."

When Skylar heard this, his frustration seemed to have subsided a lot, and his anger dissipated

gradually.

Coralie stood behind him and looked at the expression on Skylar's face. She couldn't help but ask,

"When did you become someone who gets angry easily? Previously, you were not like this..."

In Coralie's memory, Skylar was always good-tempered when he was dealing with her. When he saw

her, he always had a faint smile on his face.

However, when she thought of their reunion, it seemed that she had never seen Skylar smile since

then.

It was as if he didn't know how to smile.

Hearing Coralie's question, Skylar's eyelashes drooped slightly. "I've always been like this."

In fact, Skylar had always been like this. He was cold and uncompromising toward his subordinates.

Even his peers in the Holland family were a little afraid of him.

After he met Coralie in college, his whole person changed. At that time, as long as Coralie was by his

side, he would naturally be in a good mood.

"Did you come back to ask about this? Do you still have to go to work later? Do you need me to cook?"

Coralie changed the subject.

She could tell that Skylar didn't want to answer this question. She didn't have to make a fool of herself.

Also, Skylar's kindness toward her was all in the past.

Skylar looked at his watch. It was already past 11 o'clock. He went back to the entrance and changed

his shoes. "Let's eat at home."

Sitting on the sofa, he took out his tablet and began to deal with business matters. Meanwhile, he

turned on the TV to watch the financial news. His life had always been like this.

After a while, the sound of cooking could be heard from the kitchen. Skylar tilted his head slightly and

noticed that Coralie was busy working in the kitchen with an apron. He felt a sense of warmth.

When he looked over, he noticed that Coralie's hand was scalded by the oil that had splashed out

when she was cooking. She did not cry out in pain. She only washed her hands with water and

continued to cook.

Skylar frowned slightly. He took out some ointment from the first-aid kit and went to the kitchen. He

grabbed Coralie's hand with his fingers and asked gently, "Where did you get burned just now?"

"What?"

Coralie was cooking, but she was shocked when her hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.

"Where did you get burned just now?"

Skylar had already seen a tiny red patch under Coralie's thumb. He smeared it with the ointment.

Then, he reached out and used his hand to rub the ointment.

Coralie looked at Skylar as he applied the ointment carefully. She stopped what she was doing, and her

face was slightly warm. She whispered, "Thank you."

He looked up at her red face. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond to her. Instead, he said, "If

you can't do this well, let me know earlier. From now on, I will replace the part-time servant with a full-

time servant."

His tone was not pleasant, but Coralie could hear that Skylar was concerned for her.

"No, I'm good at cooking."

"The dish is burnt." This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Huh?"

"The dish is burnt."

Only then did Coralie smell the unpleasant scent of something that was burnt. She turned around. She

was busy talking to Skylar just now and she didn't flip over the food in time. Due to this, the food was

burnt.

"Oh no. oh no!" She hurriedly turned off the gas and said, "Please wait for a little longer. I'll prepare

some ingredients again."

Coralie was a little embarrassed. Just now, she had said that she was good at cooking, but in the blink

of an eye, she had burnt the dishes.

"Forget it. I'll take you out to eat."

Skylar pressed his hand on Coralie, who was going to wash the pan.

......

Golden Town was at a strategic location in A City, and there were many restaurants around it.

The two of them didn't drive, and they chose to walk to the restaurant.

Coralie walked behind Skylar and looked at his tall back. She thought of how he had helped her with

the ointment just now and she felt a sense of sweetness in her heart. Skylar's every little move would

always affect her.

"Coralie!"

As Coralie was lost in thought, a sharp female voice pulled her back to reality.

She came back to her sense and saw a woman standing not far away. The woman was wearing a skirt,

stockings, high heels, and a woolly overcoat.

She was Alison.

"Coralie! Tell me, what the h*ll are you doing! How dare you call the police when Howard exposed you

for having an affair!"

Before Coralie could speak, Alison ran over. She wanted to grab her hair and start a fight with her.

As Skylar and Coralie were not walking side by side, Alison only spotted Coralie, but she did not notice

Skylar at all.

Coralie's legs hadn't fully recovered yet. She wanted to avoid her but she couldn't. Seeing that Alison

was about to rush over and hit her...

Alison raised her hand, and Skylar was already in front of Coralie.

He was 1.8 meters tall, while Coralie was 1.6 meters tall. Standing in front of her, Skylar could

completely protect Coralie with his body.

At this moment, Alison noticed that the man standing next to them was actually acquainted with

Coralie.

She raised her head and looked at the familiar face in front of her. Her expression changed from anger

to surprise and then to jealousy. "Skylar! You are Coralie's new husband?"

How could Alison not know Skylar?

She had been Coralie's roommate for four years. She was there for their entire journey. She knew them

from their first meeting to the time when they had fallen in love, and then to the time of their separation

in the end.

She also knew what Skylar's mother had said to Coralie.

At that time, Alison was jealous that Coralie had such a good boyfriend, and when Coralie told her what

Lillian had said to her, Alison didn't spare any effort to persuade them to break up.

"Is there any problem?"

Skylar lowered his head and looked at Alison's face, which was covered with heavy makeup. However,

her expression was twisted and ugly. He seemed disgusted with her.

"Yes! Skylar, are you crazy or stupid? Do you know why Coralie broke up with you that year? She

dumped you because of Howard. She slept with Howard and thought that Howard was better in bed.

You might think that she looks innocent, but the truth is, she is a b*tch. Do you know this?"

Alison pointed at Coralie and spoke nonsense.
