You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 102

"Mr. Davis, not every man is as good as you."

A colleague continued the conversation.

Coralie didn't want to talk to Harrison at all, especially when he had just scratched her palm. It was an obvious sexual hint! Coupled with Alison's matter, Coralie felt disgusted by this so-called good man in the eyes of the other colleagues.

"Coralie, where did you go for your honeymoon? Even if you haven't been to the Maldives, you did go somewhere else, didn't you?"

Harrison thought that the Maldives was a very wonderful destination, so he repeated it over and over again.

As a veteran in love affairs, he definitely knew how to mislead women.

As long as he spoke about this destination, ordinary women would think that he would take them there.

"I haven't been there."

Coralie did not raise her head while speaking, but she looked toward the stage.

Now, the host, Lenora, was already testing the mike, and the banquet would probably begin soon.

"You seem to care for someone else's wife very much, don't you?"

Skylar said this from the side. Although he really wanted to say that he was Coralie's husband, he didn't want to do so since he had made this promise to Coralie.

However, Harrison's constant provocations were testing his limits.

Hearing his boss's words, Harrison chuckled and said, "I'm just concerned about my new colleague."

As he spoke, his eyes were still staring straight at Coralie's collar. Although the dress she chose was old-fashioned, the collar was wide. A woman with a flat chest couldn't wear it well, but Coralie had an ample bosom and her cleavage was alluring.

"There are so many colleagues around, and you'd better care for all of them to avoid any misunderstandings."

When Skylar spoke, he put his arm on the back of Coralie's chair. From a certain point of view, it seemed like he was holding Coralie's waist.

The colleagues around heard Skylar's tone of displeasure, and no one dared to continue speaking.

......

Soon, the party began, and each department had prepared a performance item.

Snacks and fruits were served. Everyone could watch the performance while eating and they could also chat with each other. It was a good time for colleagues to bond with each other.

Coralie was sitting next to Skylar. His arm was on her chair, and he didn't intend to leave at all. He seemed frosty and unapproachable.

No one dared to approach him.

However, Coralie was sitting here, and she didn't know whether she should talk to Skylar or not. She didn't know what to say, but it seemed that the atmosphere on the whole table was down to a freezing point, if she didn't say anything.

She had no choice but to pick up an apple and put it in front of Skylar. She asked, "President Holland, would you like to have an apple?"

She was thinking to give him the apple if Skylar wanted it. If he didn't want to eat it, she would eat it herself. No one would be embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Skylar looked at the apple in Coralie's hand and nodded. Then, he said, "Yes, I do, if you'll peel it for me."

After he said this, Coralie couldn't help feeling annoyed.

Peel the apple?

"President Holland, there's no knife here. I can't peel it,"

Coralie said with an obsequious smile.

"That's your own business."

Skylar didn't take this seriously.

Coralie held the apple and looked at Skylar. She turned her face and said, "Do whatever you want then, hmph!"

Where could she find a small knife to peel an apple in this venue? If she came in with a knife now, she would probably be taken away by the security guard?
