You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 112

Coralie was stunned when she heard the words coming out from Abigail's mouth. She didn't expect her aunts to be so well-informed. Not only did they know their address after Coralie and her family moved, they even knew about her divorce.

"I didn't expect you to care so much about me. You even know about my divorce."

When Wayne heard Abigail questioning Coralie about her divorce, he wanted to stand up for her.

However, he saw that there wasn't a pang of anger on Coralie nor did she lose her composure. He knew that she was able to handle it with ease, so he shut his mouth and sat silently beside her without not saying a word.

"You're my niece, it's normal for me to care about you."

Abigail didn't mention the source from where she heard Coralie's divorce.

Vera chipped in with a smile, "Coralie's ex-husband wasn't that good after all. It's good they got divorced. Look at my son-in-law, Jayden. He's a manager at the company he works at, making a million dollars every year and living a good life."

Abigail wasn't going to be outshone by Vera. "My son-in-law, Seamus, is starting his own business now. Although the starting was tough, he had a good outlook. I heard a while ago that their company is going to partner up with Skyton Corporation."

"Puff."

As soon as he heard the word "Skyton Corporation", Wayne couldn't help but snicker.

"What are you laughing at?"

Abigail questioned Wayne.

Wayne realized that he could not dodge the question so he answered, "My sister is now working at Skyton Corporation."

He was smart enough not to mention Skylar.

Hearing this, Vera couldn't retain her expression anymore. She had never thought that Coralie, who used to be an insignificant staff worker, was now working for the Skyton Corporation, an huge and esteemed company.

"Really? I really didn't expect that. What do you work as?"

Abigail questioned Coralie relentlessly.

She knew about Coralie's previous job where she earned only 2,000 dollars a month. At that time, Coralie was all parsimonious and wouldn't spend much on herself.

Coralie was working at Skyton Corporation now? She was probably doing some menial tasks anyway!

"Yes, I'm working in the finance department, which is relevant to my degree."

Coralie studied finance back in college.

"Oh, I see."

"By the way, Coralie, have you considered remarrying? There is a supervisor in Jayden's company who is still single. Although he is a bit older, his salary isn't bad, only a few hundred thousand lesser than Jayden's."

As soon as Abigail stopped, Vera picked up the pace again.

The two sisters had never stopped for a moment. They kept on clattering their tongue against their teeth, spouting words to humiliate Coralie further.

"No need for that."

Coralie refused frankly.

However, Vera wasn't satisfied with it. "Coralie, don't be so picky. A daughter's filial piety is to give her parents a good life, isn't it? Look at how hard your mother's life is. Even at her age, she doesn't even have a house of her own but has to settle down with renting a house."

The truth was, they had a house. However, it was burned down to the ground and even if it was renovated, it wouldn't be comfortable to live in. That was the reason Coralie rented a house for them.

"Yes, look at Seamus. He gives me a few thousand dollars every month."

Abigail added.

In fact, they were not exactly wrong. Coralie was not earning as much as them, and hadn't married herself into a wealthy family like their daughters.
