"Okay."
However, seeing that Valerie Rae didn't say anything, Skylar Holland didn't press her any further. After all, he didn't care about Valerie's affairs.
Valerie was a little unhappy when she saw that her plan had failed.
She had no choice but to turn the phone over and said, "Elsa sent me a photo just now. I don't know whether I should show it to you."
"Whatever."
"Why don't you take a look?"
Valerie passed her phone to Skylar so that he could see it.
Skylar lowered his head slightly and glanced at the photo on the mobile phone. His indifferent expression suddenly froze,. His face darkened, but he did not speak.
Valerie looked at Skylar and said nothing. She took the phone back and said, "Maybe Franklin is just worried about Miss Chariott. That's why he's having dinner with her."
This sentence aggravated the whole affair.
"It's none of his business."
Skylar said with a gloomy face.
Deep down, he believed that Coralie had been absolutely loyal to him. However, he was also worried because Franklin Moore was excellent in all aspects. He felt uneasy in his heart.
As they were eating, Skylar became more and more restless. He knew where the place in the photo was.
It was a small restaurant that he frequented with Coralie back when they were in college.
Why was Coralie there with Franklin then? What did it mean?
"I'll head out for a bit."
Skylar got up and was about to leave.
Valerie certainly knew where he was going. She struggled to get up, walked to Skylar with her prosthesis, pulled the corner of his shirt, and said, "I'll go with you."
She knew that she must go with Skylar.
Otherwise, given Skylar's character, it was very likely that he would drive Franklin away and stay with Coralie.
She definitely did not want this to happen!
Skylar thought about how he had left Valerie at home previously and causing her to attempt suicide. He had no choice but to nod his head, "Alright."
......
Coralie and Franklin finished the meal and paid for it. It only amounted to 90 dollars.
Since he was the son of a wealthy family, Franklin felt a little embarrassed by the scant amount, "It's still early. Would you like me to walk around with you?"
Coralie looked at him and said with a smile, "It's okay, Young Master Moore. Thank you for your offer. And also, thank you for telling me about the driver and treating me to dinner. If you had treated me to an expensive meal, I would have feel pressured by it."
"That is to say, if I could lessen the pressure on you, then you would spend time with me next time?"
Franklin looked at Coralie and thought of asking her out again in the future.
"No, she won't."
Before Coralie could answer, Skylar had arrived in the car.
Coralie raised her head and was met with Skylar's tall figure standing at the door. Her heart ached. She wanted to run away at that instant. At this moment, she felt as though she was caught cheating on her husband.
"Hey, President Holland, what brings you here?" Franklin got up and stared at Skylar. He then peeked at Valerie, who was behind him, "Does Mrs. Holland enjoy food from a small store like this?"
Straightforwardly, he referred to Valerie as Mrs. Holland.
However, Coralie felt her heart aching.
"Please refrain from addressing other people incorrectly. Legally speaking, Coralie is still Mrs. Holland."
Skylar could only say so for the time being.
Coralie stood beside Franklin and said nothing.
"President Holland, I don't think that it's a good idea to have two girlfriends at the same time."
