You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 156

Skylar Holland looked at the tears on Valerie's face, but he retracted his hand from hers.

Valerie Rae feigned indifference when Skylar took his hand away, "Skylar, are you hungry? I have asked the chef to make some breakfast for you. Would you like some?"

"Where is Coralie?"

Skylar knew that Coralie Chariott was also injured, but he didn't know if her injury was serious. He only saw the huge bloodstain on her clothes.

"Skylar..." Valerie's face fell, "You should care for yourself now instead of her. Why are you so worried about her?"

"Where is she?"

"She just had a small cut. You injured your kidney and you had undergone surgery for six hours," Valerie was upset. She added, "I didn't stay with you for the whole night just to hear about her as soon as you wake up."

In fact, she slept very well the previous night. Coralie was the one who stayed up all night by his side.

Therefore, Valerie was sure that Coralie couldn't be awake at this time.

However, Wayne Chariott called while Coralie was taking a nap. He had finished giving his statement at the police station. The police also asked Coralie to give a witness statement.

Coralie had been sleeping like a log, but she had to wake up for it.

She intended to head straight to the police station, but she was concerned about Skylar.

Before she knew it, she had already found herself walking towards his ward.

"Hello."

Coralie had just arrived at the entrance of the corridor, but she caught sight of Anthony Holland standing there at the door.

"Hello, Uncle Holland."

Anthony came with Lillian Ford and Valerie yesterday. Judging from the way he was standing there in a suit and exuding his exceptional aura, Coralie guessed that he must be Skylar's father.

Since such a big incident had happened to Skylar, it was only normal for his father to return from abroad.

"I have investigated your background. Your father passed away in a car accident six years ago, and your mother was laid off. You have a younger brother who has just started his second year in university this year. Your family expenses basically depend on your father's compensation."

Anthony went straight to the point and delineated the situation in Coralie's family.

"Yes."

Coralie answered. She had already guessed what Anthony would say next.

"You've just bought a house recently, and my son paid for it. He married you for a year as a good-luck-bride, and he gave you 5 million dollars for the agreement."

"Yes."

Anthony had a clear grasp of everything. In the face of it, Coralie could only admit to the truth.

"I hope you understand that despite your value, my son had given you 5 million dollars because of your past relationship. You should know best whether you deserve this money, but I won't look into what happened before."

Since Anthony was able to investigate her background so clearly, he must have known what had happened between Skylar and her when they were in university.

......

"A poor person like you value love, but we are businessmen. Businessmen only care about interests. If you still bear any unrealistic fantasy about the Holland family or becoming the next Mrs. Holland, I suggest you cast those thoughts away. Otherwise, I will force you to return the money," After Anthony finished speaking, he looked at the quiet Coralie. Then he added, "Well, that's all I want to say."

It could be said that although Anthony and Lillian shared the same purpose, their styles were completely different.

He was straightforward and his purpose was clear.

"I know that I'm not worthy of the Holland family. I'll leave after I see Skylar."

Coralie stood where she was.

If Anthony had not intervened, she could still hold on to the slightest fleck of chance for her.

Now that Anthony had already spoken his mind, what else could she say?

"Okay."

Anthony was parsimonious with his time and words. He had already said what he needed to.

He fixed his clothes and turned to leave.
