You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 144

"Andrew? Why are you here?"

Josephine Lowell had never dreamed that Andrew Jordan would come to pick her up.

Andrew was unperturbed. He knew that Josephine would certainly not tell her parents that he had angered her. Thus, he said, "I think that you are too happy in your parents' home until you had forgotten all about me. But I miss you. Didn't you miss me at all?"

Andrew was great at coaxing women.

Josephine knew that it was a lie, but she liked it. She blushed and let Andrew in.

The first person whom Andrew saw when he entered the room was Coralie Chariott. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Coralie before saying, "What a coincidence. Coralie is here too."

His expression was natural as though he was genuinely surprised to see Coralie after a long time.

Josephine's parents didn't know how Andrew had usually treated their daughter. When they saw their son-in-law, they stood up and invited him generously, "Andrew, have you had lunch? Come, take a seat and eat with us."

Coralie was there, so she had no choice but to make space for Andrew.

Josephine's son was sitting there. He didn't respond when he saw Andrew. Instead, he turned around and called Josephine, "Mommy, Mommy."

"Josephine, get a set of cutlery and tableware for Andrew."

Josephine's mother said.

"Okay."

When Josephine saw how welcoming her parents were toward Andrew, she thought of all the things that Andrew had put her through before and she felt incredibly upset.

Andrew stared at Coralie, "Coralie, are you here for Josephine?"

"Coralie bought a house for her parents around here. So I called her over to have a meal together. Weren't you all good friends in college?"

Before Coralie could speak, Josephine's mother had enthusiastically explained to Andrew.

"Wow, not bad. You bought a house."

Andrew looked at Coralie, his expression complicated.

Coralie realized that something was off and she explained, "I sold my mother's previous house. She bought the house herself. I only contributed some money."

"Wasn't your mother's house caught in a fire before this? Could you still sell it?"

Howard Schultz had told Andrew about the fire.

Josephine put a plate in front of Andrew and said, "Don't worry about Coralie. She could handle her own affairs."

Josephine felt sorry for Coralie when she thought of what had happened before. Now that Andrew had known about her relocation, even Josephine felt scared.

She was also afraid that Andrew, who was greedy, would start to plot against her.

After all, Andrew had changed.

......

After dinner, Andrew, Coralie, and Josephine went downstairs together. Josephine held her son in her arms while Andrew's hands were empty.

Coralie couldn't stand it anymore, "Andrew, you're the father of the child and you're a grown-up man. How could you just watch her and do nothing?"

Andrew glanced at Coralie, "It's her job, isn't it?"

"I'm fine," Josephine said quickly, "I'm used to it. I will be worried if he's the one holding the child."

Coralie looked at Josephine and sighed.

Andrew looked at Coralie and recalled the conversation just now. Of course, he did not believe that Coralie's mother had bought the house on her own. He smirked, "Coralie, your rich husband must have bought the house for your mother. When are you going to lend me some money then?"
