You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 179

"Are you okay?"

Jasper, who was sitting next to Valerie, instantly held her arm and asked with concern.

"I... I'm fine." Valerie said as she stood up from the table. Without even raising her head, she told everyone, "Sorry, I have to go out and tidy up."

As she spoke, she suppressed her panic and walked out of the room.

After she exited, Valerie rushed all the way to the bathroom and hid in one of the compartments. She locked herself up with her pale face and murmured, "How could there be such a coincidence? Hendrick Chariott was Coralie's father?"

Hendrick was the person whom Valerie had killed in the car accident that year.

Valerie was drunk at that time. She still remembered that when she hit Hendrick, he was not dead yet.

At that time, she got out of the car and saw Hendrick asking her for help with his eyes opened. Valerie was stunned. When she saw that there was no one around and confirmed that there were no cameras, she quickly got in the car, wanting to flee from the scene because she was drunk driving. It was impossible for her to call the police because she would have ended up in jail!

However, as soon as she started the car, Valerie realized that Hendrick had seen her face. What if he didn't die and recognized her as the perpetrator later?

Valerie instantly had an intention to kill. She reversed the car to about a hundred-meter away and charged forward again. As she sped up, the whole car eventually ran over Hendrick's body.

The turbulence under the wheel made Valerie's heart tremble.

However, since she had done it, there was no turning back.

When Valerie drove the car away, she was shocked. At that time, she was still young and was terrified, she dared not to go back and tell her parents. The first thing she thought about was to go to Franklin and ask for his help.

When she was studying abroad, Valerie would dream of how Hendrick looked at her when he was asking for her help. Sometimes she could even feel the bed shaking when she was sleeping, just like how a car would shake when it ran over a person.

The nightmare had been mitigated recently, but that name appeared again.

Valerie couldn't accept that truth.

Valerie stayed in the bathroom for a long time until the door to the compartment was knocked on. Jasper's voice came from outside, "Valerie, are you inside?"

When Valerie heard Jasper's voice, she quickly comforted herself, "It's okay, it's okay. It's over and no one will know about it. It's all just a coincidence."

After comforting herself over and over again, she opened the door and looked at Jasper who was outside, trying not to lose her composure, "I'm sorry. I made you worried."

Jasper lowered his head and saw Valerie sitting on the toilet seat. The wine stain on her dress was still visible. It seemed that she had not dealt with it at all. Her face was pale and her hands were slightly trembling. He asked with concern, "Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I... I have hypoglycemia. I was a little dizzy just now."

Valerie made up a lie.

"I'll send you back then."

"No, I, I can go back by myself."

Valerie shook her head desperately.

Jasper was particularly concerned. He said, "Don't force yourself. Let's go, I'll send you back. I'll just go and inform them first."

As he said so, Jasper took Valerie's hand and helped her back to the room.

Jasper did not conceal his love for Valerie at all, and he was already treating Valerie as his fiancee.

Jasper took Valerie back to the room. He briefly notified Skylar and Anthony before he sent Valerie home.

Seeing as Jasper left with Valerie in his arms, Anthony's face immediately darkened, "Look, now someone else got it?"

"I told you I'm not going to marry her."

Skylar was not bothered with that matter but the reason for Jasper to suddenly ask about Coralie's parents.
