He wanted to divorce her and marry another woman.
That woman was not just someone else. She was Valerie Rae, the woman who had nearly caused her to be defiled, and it was highly likely that she played a part in her miscarriage.
"I won't sign it!" As Coralie said so, she tore the agreement to pieces in an instant. "Skylar, that line on your form will never have the word 'divorce'. If you insisted on changing that, it could only be widowed."
Even though her attitude was unwavering, Coralie felt that the hard armor in her heart was starting to crack.
Skylar did not expect Coralie would be so resolute.
"You're of no help to my career. I hope we have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Skylar stood still. He was much taller than Coralie.
Coralie felt oppressed in front of him.
However, she didn't want to compromise.
"Does it have to be Valerie?"
"Maybe someone else, but it won't be you anymore."
Every word Skylar said was like a sharp knife.
Coralie's heart was already bleeding like a river.
She felt so distressed. She had never felt so hopeless.
Why did it turn out that way...
"Skylar, I hope you understand. I didn't steal any project away from you. It's impossible for me to do that!"
"It doesn't matter anymore. What I want now is for Skyton Corporation to rise again, I don't want love anymore. Our relationship is a burden for me right now."
Skylar did not listen to her explanation at all. His expression was as cold as the ice. He was not moved at all.
"A burden?"
Coralie didn't expect that. She had never expected Skylar, the one who gave her all kind of promises, to use such words in describing their relationship.
"Yes, I will get Jayson to send the agreement another day. We only said to stay together only for a year, so even if you don't agree, you signed the agreement that year."
"Yes."
When Skylar said that, Coralie remembered that she and Skylar had only agreed to be together for a year.
"It's best if you remember it. Don't forget who you are just because you've been too comfortable being Mrs. Holland."
What Skylar said was getting more and more ruthless. It was completely different from how he was before.
However, Coralie felt that it was ridiculous, "Comfortable? Skylar, which eye of yours see me as being comfortable with the title of Mrs. Holland? I endured the sarcasm from your mother and the Holland family just for you, but I used to think that it was okay. I took it in because I love you, but now you think I've been too comfortable?"
Coralie was heartbroken, but she bit her lip to keep her tears from falling down.
"Since you feel so wronged, I hope you won't refuse anymore when Jayson sends you the divorce agreement in a few days." Skylar looked down at Coralie with the same expression, "Or I'll have to hire a lawyer."
After that, he turned around and left.
From the beginning to the end, Skylar's face was so cold that it was scary, he did not intend to change it. No matter what Coralie said, his expression did not budge at all.
She looked at his back as he left. He was a man who used to take care of her so much, now he had changed just like that?
If Skylar had told her that the person he was going to marry was not Valerie, Coralie might have agreed. However, it was Valerie. Coralie would never approve it.
