You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 216

The policewoman was shocked since she did not expect Skylar Holland to be so agitated all of a sudden.

After all, Skylar had always been in control before this.

"Mr. Holland, we'll look into the whole investigation. You just said that Coralie would not wear these kinds of clothes. What do you mean by that? Can you elaborate more?"

After listening to Skylar's words just now, the female policewoman caught an important message.

After all, the video was dark, and a lot of clues might have been washed away by the heavy rain. As Coralie Chariott's ex-husband, Skylar would be able to bring up important clues.

"Her clothes, and her pants. I'm sure she doesn't have those clothes."

Skylar answered without any hesitation.

He must prove that Coralie was not the woman who jumped. She only looked slightly similar to Coralie.

"Perhaps it was her new clothes?" The policewoman asked.

"No, she likes wearing skirts."

In fact, when Skylar said this, he didn't think it was possible.

However, according to his understanding, Coralie would never buy those kinds of clothes.

"Well... I've noted that, Mr. Holland. That's the progress we have for now. If you think of something else, please contact us again."

The policewoman took Skylar's words as his justification for not being able to accept the death of his ex-wife.

After that, she sent Skylar away.

Skylar Holland didn't return to the company this time but went to the dam in the heavy rain.

He went to the spot where Coralie fell into the water in the footage.

Although Skylar was unwilling to admit it, he could be said to be the person who knew Coralie the best in the world. When he saw the petite figure on the video, he knew it was Coralie.

However, he didn't know why Coralie was wearing such a strange shirt and pants, like the clothes worn by a teenager from decades ago. Most importantly, he didn't know why she came here alone.

When Skylar reached the dam, there was no one around.

He stood there alone for a long time, looked at the surface of the water and asked repeatedly, "What the h*ll are you hiding from me?"

A staff member of the dam passed by and saw Skylar standing there. He was frightened by the sight and immediately ran over to pat him on the back. "Sir, every problem has a solution. You don't have to end your life."

Skylar looked at him and asked, "Do you know that someone jumped down from here a few days ago?"

The man nodded as soon as he heard that. He said, "Of course I know. Well, my job was easy before, but since she jumped down from here, my leader asked me to patrol three times a day. I can't even sleep on the night shift because of the patrol. What a shame!" He complained.

The staff didn't know who Skylar was, so he poured out all his complaints when Skylar asked him.

"Is there anything else?"

"No, the police have been investigating in the rain for the past two days here but they couldn't find anything. It seems that they only found a mobile phone, but all the things in it were deleted."

The staff said as he thought about it.

He turned his head and looked at Skylar, who was only using an umbrella in such heavy rain. His whole body except for his head and shoulders, was soaked in rainwater.

"I'll go to the car and get you twenty thousand dollars. If you encounter anything strange, just inform me immediately."

Skylar looked at the staff who was over forty years old. Although the staff might not be a big help to him, he was still unwilling to give up.

As he said, he went back to his car and took out a paper bag from the car. There were exactly twenty thousand dollars in it, and he handed it to the staff.

The staff took a look and found that there were real banknotes inside the paper bag!

Twenty thousand dollars! It was more than half a year's salary!
