You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 157

Hearing how he had just addressed her, Coralie Chariott was dumbfounded. It never crossed her mind that Skylar would still call her that.

"Skylar, you..."

Tears sprang to her eyes.

She was aware of Skylar's kindness to her. She was not stupid. Of course, she knew everything. However, none of that mattered now. Anthony Holland had made himself clear just now.

"We haven't divorced yet. I could still call you that."

He then kissed her. Perhaps it was because of his injury, his kiss was very light and tender.

Coralie was struggling in her heart. She loved this man deeply. However, they were two people from two different worlds.

When the man pulled himself back from the kiss, Coralie immediately pulled him back into her arms. She buried her face in his chest and muttered, "Skylar, apart from my family background, what must I do so that I could continue to be your wife..."

Apart from her immutable family background, what must she do so that she could continue being his wife?

Coralie had made up her mind when she was talking with Anthony just now. She had planned to apologize to Skylar and leave right after. However, Skylar was the last thread that was still pulling her in.

Love was never a one-sided effort.

"You don't have to do anything. I'll do it."

In fact, Skylar knew that Coralie being here at this moment had already meant that she was willing to withstand the pressure from the Holland family and the Rae family.

Furthermore, he was the one who had involved Coralie in this matter.

"But... what about the Rae family..."

The Rae family was also esteemed in A City. Even though Skylar's Skyton Corporation was developing well, it still couldn't compete with the Rae family.

"Hector will definitely reconsider the engagement because of the smuggling case,"

Skylar thought for a while and decided to tell Coralie about it.

Indeed, when Coralie knew that it was Skylar who had framed himself on purpose, she was taken aback.

"It's you..."

"Shh."

Skylar pressed his finger against the woman's lips.

In fact, his purpose was to break off his engagement with Valerie Rae. If Hector Rae were to find out Skylar was the one behind it, who knew what he would do.

At this moment, Lillian Ford rushed into the room suddenly. When she saw Coralie sitting next to Skylar and acting lovingly, she shouted, "You both are trying to kill Valerie. I was wondering why Valerie was hurting herself again. It's you again, Coralie!"

"Mom! I was the one who asked her to come and for Valerie to go out."

When Skylar saw Lillian rushing over, he instinctively wanted to protect Coralie but he was unfortunately encumbered by his injury. It was hard for him to get out of bed.

"Skylar, don't move."

Lillian wanted to drag Coralie away, but when she saw her son struggling to get out of bed, her distress peaked immediately.

"Did Valerie hurt herself again?"

Skylar looked at Lillian and asked.

"That's right. I don't know where she got the knife from. She cut her arms and blood was all over the corridor!"

Lillian looked at Coralie with anger. She snapped at Skylar, "Skylar, no matter how much you love Coralie, you mustn't play with Valerie's life. You know that she is sick. Why wouldn't you wait for her to recover first? Then, you both could continue your relationship as you like, and I promise that I won't interfere anymore."

Coralie really didn't expect Valerie to hurt herself again. She looked and acted normal, including when she was in the company.

"Honey, you should head back first. I'll take care of this."

Skylar deliberately called Coralie 'honey' in front of Lillian.
