You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 294

"I don't know. I don't know what happened either," Coralie said and shook her head. "I'll go first. Let's keep in touch."

Coralie waved her hand and left after.

She had a slight fever so she was not in a good state. She could not stay too long outside since it was cold.

......

The next day.

After taking the medicine for a day, Coralie's body temperature was under control, but it was still above 37 degrees.

However, she did not say anything. Instead, she applied makeup to enhance her complexion. Then, she took Hendric, Hera, and Wayne to visit her father's grave.

The four of them took a taxi to the cemetery.

Every year, Hera would come here twice to visit her husband and clean his tomb.

"Hendric, your grandfather is sleeping here."

Hera pulled Hendric over and said.

"Why is Grandpa sleeping here? Isn't he cold?"

Hendric asked out of curiosity. It was November now. He only knew that it would be cold to sleep outside, but he had no concept of life and death.

"Hendric, your grandfather has passed away. His soul has gone to another world, but his body is here, so he is not cold."

Coralie half knelt and explained to Hendric.

"Oh, I see." Hendric nodded and replied despite not having a full understanding of it. Then he asked, "Does he know we are here to see him?"

"He knows. He can even hear you speak," Coralie answered him.

"Really?" Hendric stood in front of the tombstone and said politely, "Hello, Grandpa. I am Hendric Holland. I'm here to see you today with my mother, uncle, and grandmother."

Wayne said with a smile, "Hendric Holland? Is that your name?"

"It was Skylar's idea."

Coralie smiled but there was a streak of sadness in it.

Jayson once told her that Skylar had registered Hendric and he had given him this name.

"Ah... To be honest, if that d*mned driver didn't escape that time, Dad wouldn't have died!"

Wayne stood in front of the tomb and suddenly spoke.

When he talked about the incident that year, Coralie and Hera lapsed into silence.

When the driver hit Hendrick, he didn't die right at the scene. However, it was late at night in a remote place where no one could have noticed him, and it led to Hendrick's death.

Although there were no security cameras at the scene where he was hit, there was one at the end of the road. The police quickly narrowed it down to the several cars passing by during that period.

However, the person turned himself in before the police could confirm the car which caused the accident.

Wayne went on to say, "How many years did that b*stard get sentenced to?"

"Ten years."

Coralie said.

At this point, everyone seemed to realize something.

This year was the tenth anniversary of Hendrick's death and that person had been sentenced to ten years in jail. It meant that the perpetrator would be released this year.

"That's to say the b*stard will be released this year? That's sick! He was sentenced to only ten years in jail while our father's dead?"

Wayne was furious!

"Wayne, let bygones be bygones," Hera said.

Since the driver had turned himself in, he had received his punishment and had also compensated them money for the damage. This matter was over a long time ago.

Hera couldn't let her family live in the shadow of that incident forever.

"Yeah... Coralie is back now. It's a good thing that we are reunited again. I wish for nothing more but peace in our family in the future," Hera said.

She had let go of the past too.

"I'll be with Mommy forever," Hendric added.

He stood aside and listened to their conversation. Although he couldn't get his head around their words, he still said something.
