You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 177

"By the way, a few days ago, Howard stayed for a long time at our house. He kept bad-mouthing you to Andrew. As he drank with Andrew until very late at night, I came back because I'm scared that they would disturb Kevin."

As soon as Coralie heard what Josephine said, her nerves stood up.

"Who?"

"Howard Schultz..."

After Coralie confirmed it, she grabbed Josephine's hand and looked around to make sure that Kevin wasn't around, and that no one heard what she had just said. Then, she asked, "Do you know about Howard's current identity?"

"What's wrong with him?"

"He is a fugitive! He barged into our house to rob that day, and even stabbed Skylar."

Coralie picked up her mobile phone and confirmed with Josephine repeatedly before she called the police, "Are you sure he is at your house?"

"He was there a few days ago, but I'm not sure about now..." Josephine was a little bewildered, "He, he is now a wanted criminal? Does Andrew know about that? Would he hurt Andrew?"

"Andrew must have known that, right?"

Coralie said to Josephine while she called the police officer with whom she had contacted before.

When Coralie was explaining the situation to the police, Josephine sat on the bed with her palms slightly sweaty, "Coralie, I, I have to go. Is it okay if I leave Kevin at home for a while?"

"Wait a minute!" Coralie stopped Josephine while she was still talking to the police officer. After hanging up the phone, she asked, "Where are you going?"

"I don't think Andrew knows that Howard is a wanted criminal judging by the way he acted... What if Howard had no money and wanted to hurt Andrew?"

Josephine murmured. At that time, she was imagining a murder scene.

Coralie began to feel sorry for her again, "Andrew must have known about Howard's situation. I guess you are the only one who is being kept in the dark. You don't know anything about it, you can't go back. What if Howard holds you hostage again?"

"He won't! No, I want to go back, I'll leave Kevin at your place for a while!"

At that time, Josephine did not take in Coralie's advice at all. After she stepped out of the door, she held her son and said, "Kevin, you can stay at Auntie Chariott's house for a while. I'll go out and buy you some candies, okay?"

"I want to go with Mommy!"

Kevin was Josephine's son's nickname.

When he heard that Josephine was about to leave, he wanted to go with her. After all, he was closest to his mother.

Josephine couldn't care much then. She only wanted to go home and tell Andrew about it.

"Josephine, Josephine." Seeing that she was in a hurry to leave, Coralie said, "When you get home, don't be too frank. Just say that you're there to get something."

"I know! Don't worry."

After saying that, Josephine left regardless of her son's distress.

However, it had been half a day since she left.

In the evening, Coralie tried her best to coax Kevin to sleep. She fell asleep too.

When she woke up in a daze in the morning and looked at her phone, there was no notifications at all. She could not help but feel a little nervous.

While Kevin was not awake yet, Coralie ran out of the house and called Josephine.

However, the call was not connected because the other end of the line was turned off.

Coralie's first reaction was to call the police officer she contacted before.

As it was too early, it seemed that the police officer had not got up yet. When he answered the phone, he sounded like he was in a daze, "Miss Chariott, we have sent someone to monitor the place you mentioned. If we catch the criminal, we will let you know immediately."

"Actually, that is my friend's house. She went back yesterday, and I have not been able to reach her until today."

Coralie said nervously.
