You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 162

Jamie George was in school when Queenie Holland called her and asked her to go home. She asked, "Why?"

"I have something to ask you."

"Couldn't you just ask about it over the phone?"

"No, come back quickly."

Queenie was besieged with a sense of crisis when she recalled Valerie's words.

After all, there were a lot of rumors about Coralie in the Holland family. Nevertheless, Jamie had a good impression of Coralie and Queenie had initially thought that Coralie was a great person too.

Even though that was the case, she only felt that way because it had nothing to do with her own family before that.

Everything had become different now that it was related to her family.

"I had already promised my friend to play games today. I can't go back home right now."

Jamie had invited Wayne to go to the Internet café that day.

Wayne would usually work or accompany his family whenever he had free time. Therefore, when Jamie wanted to play games with him, she had to make an appointment in advance, as if she was meeting a corporate leader.

"Games? You could play games any other day!"

Queenie frowned. She didn't expect that Jamie would refuse to go home for this trivial reason.

"The game could be played anytime, but the friend whom I had made an appointment with is very busy. He's only free today."

A question then popped into Queenie's mind. She took the opportunity to ask, "Is your friend a boy or a girl?"

"Boy... friend. A male friend."

As soon as Jamie said the word 'boy friend', she quickly clarified it as she thought that it sounded misleading.

Just this single point was enough to convince Queenie that Jamie must have a good relationship with a boy. However, she didn't know if the boy in question was Coralie's younger brother, whom Valerie had just mentioned.

"Bring him home then. There are a few computers at home. Why must you go to the Internet café? There are so many people smoking there. It's a mess."

Queenie was an open-minded mother.

Jamie liked to play games and skateboard, and she hated playing the piano and painting. Queenie did not think that it was a big deal and she had never opposed her daughter's preferences.

However, it was different this time. It was related to her daughter's happiness.

"No, no. I'm worried that he'll feel shy."

In fact, Jamie and Wayne were in an ambiguous relationship. Although Wayne had confessed to her, she had yet to give him an answer.

She had intended to give him an answer that day, but she didn't expect that her mother would ask her to go home all of a sudden.

"Come back by yourself then."

"I'm not going home!"

"Jamie, you weren't like this before."

In fact, Jamie's temper had always been the same. She was straightforward and blunt. She would make her intentions clear if she was not willing to do anything.

However, Queenie felt extremely uneasy when Jamie refused to come home. She wondered if it really was the boy from the Chariott family who had said something to Jamie and resulted in her being this disobedient.

"Mom, why are you being so persistent?

"Bring the boy back home then. Since you already have a boyfriend, why don't you just admit to it then?"

The more Queenie thought about it, the more pestered she was by it. Finally, she decided to come clean and ask Jamie to bring the boy home so she could meet him.

After all, Queenie had met countless people all her life. No matter how scheming the young man was, he would not be able to deceive her.

Jamie did not expect Queenie to say such a thing. She stammered, "Mom... he, he's not my boyfriend yet."

"Fine. In that case, come home now, so that your father and I could take a look at him for you!" Queenie said without giving Jamie any time to hesitate. She said, "Bring him back. I'll hang up first. I'm going to call the kitchen staff to cook up some good dishes."

After that, she hung up the phone.

Jamie was still holding the phone, her expression filled with horror.
