You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 11

Coralie Chariott was stunned, and her eyes were fixed on the emerald bracelet.

The bracelet had a deep green color. Obviously, it was a top-grade piece of jewellery. Her first reaction was to take it off. "Grandmother, this is too precious. I can't accept it."

Skylar's grandmother held the bracelet, patted her hand and said, "I don't have many years to go. This bracelet has been kept under the pillow for a long time. I had always hoped that Skye would bring home a good girl."

"Since grandmother gave it to you, just keep it."

Skylar Holland said.

Coralie nodded. She felt that it wouldn't feel right to refuse his grandmother's kindness.

"Thank you, Grandmother."

Grandmother smiled and touched Coralie's hand. "Dear child, you and Skye must live happily together."

They stayed in Grandmother's ward for the whole afternoon before they left at 6 o'clock to have dinner.

As soon as she walked out of the ward, Coralie took the bracelet off her hand and handed it to Skylar. "I'm giving it back to you."

"Since it's given to you, you can keep it."

Skylar walked ahead of Coralie and showed no intention of taking back the emerald bracelet.

"Forget about it. Our relationship isn't real anyway. Wait till you have found your true lover then you can give this to her."

Coralie looked at the bracelet in her hand and smiled bitterly.

Yes, the person he really loved.

Coralie knew that their marriage wasn't real, but she used to have naive thoughts that everything that had happened between them during college were all real.

Grandmother's words shattered the most beautiful memory she had.

Upon hearing her words, Skylar stopped and turned around. "Just keep it with you, in case Grandmother gets suspicious when she finds out that you don't have the bracelet with you next time."

His voice was very cold.

"Ah, that's right."

Coralie put on the emerald bracelet again. Her eyelashes were hanging down as she gently bit her lips.

The cold emerald bracelet which did not belong to her, felt exceptionally heavy.

When she followed Skylar back to the car, he took out a contract and placed it in front of her. "Sign it."

"Okay."

Coralie roughly glanced through the title "Premarital Agreement". Without looking at the content, she turned to the last page of the contract and put down her signature— Coralie Chariott.

"Aren't you going to read it first?"

Skylar seemed to be a little surprised.

Coralie smiled and handed the contract to him. "You have already given me the 5 million dollars, I have nothing else to ask for."

"Other than money, there isn't anything else to ask for, is it?"

Skylar looked sharply at Coralie, and his eyes were full of sarcasm.

She knew that he was looking down on her.

"Yes."

Besides money, she was a divorcee who had to take care of her mother and brother who were lying in the hospital. What else would she expect from such an excellent man like Skylar Holland?

One should know better what position they were at than anyone else.

"Coralie, since you have decided, then our relationship would only be on a monetary basis."

"A relationship strictly based on money, that's the best relationship for you, isn't it? You don't have to worry that I will be entangled with you in the future."

"You're right."

Skylar sat in the car with a terribly cold expression on his face. His hand was holding the contract so tightly that his knuckles were a little pale.

Coralie did not understand why he was being angry.

Throughout the whole journey, Skylar didn't say a word to her. Coralie didn't want to ask for another snub so she found a bus station and got down the car.

However, when Coralie was waiting for the bus, his car was parked on the opposite side of the road. He didn't leave until she had gotten on the bus.

Coralie didn't go home, but instead, she went to the hospital.

Hera Jean could already get out of the bed.
