You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 29

"I'll go." Coralie Chariott said.

Coralie's mother, who did not sleep well last night, was still resting and had no idea that Wayne hit one of the nurses.

"Sister, don't talk to them. I'm the one who did it. I'm willing to go to jail." Wayne Chariott said.

Wayne did not want to trouble Coralie.

"Don't be stupid. I'll go out and talk to them. I'll be back in a minute." Coralie said.

Coralie knew about Wayne's good intentions, but she only had one younger brother. "How could I bear to let him ruin his future for standing up for me?" she thought.

However, when Coralie stepped out, she found that things were not as simple as she thought.

Two family members of the nurse came. One man and one woman. It seemed like they were the nurse's parents.

"I'm sorry, my brother wasn't sensible..." Coralie apologized.

"What do you mean? Let me tell you, my daughter is so beautiful. Now she has been beaten by your brother. Don't think that you can get away with this matter just by saying a few words!"

Before Carolie could finish speaking, the nurse's mother spoke first.

She had put up a warning.

"Dear, let her finish first." the man said.

The nurse's father seemed to be more sensible. Seeing that his wife was so aggressive, he persuaded her.

"Finish what? Can't you figure out what she wants to say?" The nurse's mother was a little plump. She put her hands on her waist and pointed at Coralie, "If you're not willing to pay, your brother will go to jail!" she threatened.

Her voice was so loud that it rang through the whole ward.

"Madam, please lower your voice. This is the ward. If you speak so loudly, it will affect other patients who are resting."

A nurse came over and kindly reminded the nurse's mother.

Unexpectedly, she sat down on the ground and burst into tears upon hearing that. "You are all bullies! I only have one precious daughter, but now she got beaten up by this thug. She was as beautiful as a flower, but now she might not have the chance of getting married! You still want me to lower my voice. Why would you bully me like that?" she weeped.

When Wayne heard the logic of the nurse's mother, he almost rushed out to beat her. Fortunately, the police held him down.

Coralie stood in the corridor with a confused look on her face. Without saying anything, the nurse's mother had already put her in a difficult spot.

"I know, it's my brother's fault, and we do not plan on shirking responsibility." Coralie asserted.

Coralie finally found an opening to express how she felt.

"Then you'll pay for it!" the woman yelled.

As the nurse's mother sat on the ground, she had only one thing on her mind—to get the money!

"Fine, fine, your daughter got hurt. It is logical that we have to pay, but our family is not doing well economically. You should know that both my mother and brother are in the hospital." Coralie said.

Coralie tried to gain pity to avoid them thinking that she was rich, and were going to request a large sum of money.

"You don't have money? Don't think that we don't know. You are a mistress, and your lover is rich." the woman uttered.

Coralie initially wanted to pretend to be kind and have a good talk with them, but now she decided not to play nice. "What evidence do you have?" she asked.

"Evidence? My daughter said it, and everyone in the hospital knows it." the woman replied.

"Honey, it's just a rumor. Don't..." the man clarified.

The nurse's father wanted to persuade her against making false claims.

"Shut up! What do you know? She looks so beautiful. How can she not be a mistress? You men are all the same. When you see a beautiful woman, you all lose your mind."
