You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 208

"Coralie, this child is a schemer. He's different from all of you."

Hera didn't know how to tell Coralie.

"Mom, how could he possibly like me? I'm poor. I have nothing to offer him."

From Coralie's point of view, Hera's worries were unwarranted.

"That's right. She has Brother Skylar; she won't like him either."

Wayne said, as he took a set of clean clothes and was ready to take a bath.

When she heard 'Brother Skylar', Coralie's eyes darkened. She was racking her brain to figure out a way to tell her mother and brother about her divorce with Skylar.

And that she was about to marry someone else.

Most importantly, she was pregnant.

"Ugh."

Coralie was standing there when she retched. She rushed into the bathroom before Wayne did, but she nothing came out. She then rinsed her mouth and left the bathroom.

"Are you pregnant?"

Hera had been through this before hence she knew what Coralie was experiencing at a glance.

"Mom, I'm not... I just have a bad appetite these days."

"You're still lying to me?"

Hera didn't believe what Coralie said. Even though there were a lot of sicknesses that would cause dry retching, it was the most common symptom in the first trimester of pregnancy.

"Coralie, are you pregnant?"

Hearing this, Wayne also came over.

Coralie was silent for a while. After a tug of war in her mind, she still said, "I'm not! If I'm pregnant, why would I hide it from you guys? It's something to celebrate about!"

There were too many things that had befallen her. Her mother would certainly be unable to accept it, so Coralie chose not to reveal it for the time being.

......

That night, when Coralie was still helping Hera with the house chores, her phone rang.

Although it was an unknown number, she still decided to answer it.

"Hello, is this Coralie?"

As soon as the phone was connected, a man's voice with a slight accent came from the other side.

"Yes, I am. May I ask who you are..."

Coralie thought for a moment. She didn't seem to know this voice. The first thing she thought of was that it was a scam.

"Hello, I am the security guard of Golden Town. Mr. Holland is drunk and seems to have fallen asleep at the door of his house. Your number is on his emergency contact list. Could you please come and take care of him?"

After the guard finished speaking, Coralie remembered that she had to register the name of the owner and the emergency contact for the property at Golden Town annually. At that time, Coralie was still on good terms with Skylar, so she left her contact.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Coralie agreed without thinking.

She originally thought that it would not be a breach of contract for her to leave after bringing Skylar inside the house.

Coralie went out after notifying Hera and Wayne. When she arrived at the door to Skylar's house, she saw that he was sitting on the floor, leaning against the door and appeared to have fallen asleep.

Several security guards stood aside.

"Sorry to trouble you."

Coralie ran over and apologized. As she said it, she wanted to help Skylar up, but because he was drunk, his whole body was weighing her down. With her petite body, it was impossible for Coralie to hold him up.
