You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 219

Skylar looked at it for a long time. Out of curiosity, he walked over at last.

Since Coralie had sent the letter from here, it meant that she stayed nearby before. This place was far from her house, the company, or any other places. Why did she come here?

Skylar went up to the second floor and knocked on the door.

After a while, an old lady opened the door.

"Hello, grandma."

When Skylar spoke, he couldn't help but look into the house. The things in the house were old furniture from decades ago. It could be said that the skirt did not fit in well with the furniture in this house.

Considering the fact that someone was here looking for Coralie a few days ago, the old lady's first reaction when she saw Skylar was to deny everything, "No, no, please leave."

It was very strange to see the old lady behaving like this. Skylar asked, "Grandma, was Coralie Chariott here before?"

"I've told you, no."

The old lady was about to close the door.

Skylar saw her reaction and was even more certain that Coralie had been here before. He blocked at the door, and because of the difference in their strength, the old lady could not close the door at all.

Skylar apologized and expressed his intention, "Grandma, don't get me wrong. I am Coralie's husband."

Hearing this, the old lady who was about to close the door, stopped in her act. She looked at Skylar with a sad expression and said, "What are you doing here after she is dead?"

After saying that, she didn't try to close the door anymore. It meant that she allowed Skylar to come in.

After Skylar entered the house, he looked at Coralie's skirt hanging there and asked, "Can you tell me what happened before?"

He was very polite to the old lady.

The old lady sat on the bench and looked at the skirt. She let out a long sigh and told Skylar about what happened to Coralie that day.

When Skylar knew that Coralie was chased and had injured herself along her way here, he was full of regret. He blamed himself, "I'm the one who failed to protect her."

According to the old lady's recount, Skylar was sure that the people who chased Coralie were Yohan's men.

The old lady stood up and slowly picked up Coralie's skirt from the balcony. She handed it to Skylar. "Originally, I thought the girl might visit me after her death. I was afraid that she couldn't find me, so I hung her clothes there. Now that you are here, I shall give them back to you."

Skylar took the clothes and said, "Grandma, you have helped my wife. I will pay for your stay at the nursing home so your future life can be taken care of."

Although Skylar didn't know why Yohan's men would chase after Coralie and why Coralie would run away, there was no doubt that this old lady had helped Coralie.

The old lady shook her head, "No, I am so old now, and I'm used to living here alone. However, thank you for your kindness."

Skylar wanted to continue saying something, but his phone rang at this time. It was a call from Wayne.

"Brother Skylar, can you come to my house? Yohan and his men are going to take away my sister's belongings."

When the phone was connected, Wayne said on the other end of the phone.

"Wait for me," Skylar said.

After saying goodbye to the old lady, Skylar raced his car to the Chariott's house.

He had intended to ask Yohan what he wanted to do. He wanted to know why he chased after Coralie.

If Coralie was really forced to her death, then there was a great chance Yohan was the person responsible.

......

When Skylar arrived at the Chariott family, he saw two bodyguards blocking at the door.

Skylar did not say anything but went up to them immediately. Although the bodyguards Yohan hired were all tall and strong men, Skylar had been trained in martial arts since his childhood. Even when he had been busy with the company's business in recent years, he did not leave his training behind.

He was fighting them outside, and at the same time, Wayne was also doing his job in the house. After the both of them had taken down all the bodyguards, Yohan and another bodyguard had almost finished packing up all of Coralie's stuff.

"Put them down."
