You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 312

Their car drove back to the villa.

A few days ago, when Skylar instructed people to clean the villa, he requested that they build an inclined cement slope on the other side of the stairs so that it would be convenient for him to move around in his wheelchair.

Since Skylar's legs hadn't recovered yet, the upstairs level was off-limits. After returning home, Skylar could only stay in the bedroom on the ground floor.

Coralie took a set of pyjamas for him and helped him change. She stood by the bed and asked tentatively, "I've learned a massage technique on the Internet recently. Can you be my experimental subject?"

In fact, Coralie had been doing research on the Internet over the past few days. She heard that massages were beneficial to the recovery of the nervous system. Therefore, Coralie specifically found a lesson on the Internet and studied it. She planned to try it out on Skylar on the weekend, but she didn't expect him to come back so early.

"Sure."

Skylar agreed.

He also knew that Coralie must have learned it for his sake.

Skylar was lying on the bed while Coralie was kneeling on the other side of the bed. She first massaged Skylar's left leg. Her technique was not like a professional's and her strength was not focusing on the right points either. However, since Skylar's legs were bereft of any sensation, he couldn't feel anything.

What he could see was Coralie kneeling there and massaging his legs seriously.

"Does it hurt?" Coralie massaged for a few times before she asked Skylar. However, as soon as the words left her mouth, she realized that she had said something wrong and immediately changed her words, "That's not what I mean."

"I'm fine, it doesn't hurt."

With his gentle eyes, Skylar looked at her serious expression.

He watched as Coralie strenuously massaged his legs. After massaging his left leg, she switched to the right.

After a while, Coralie seemed to feel that there was no reaction from Skylar, so she said, "Actually, I've just learned it for the first time. My skill is not up to par. When I get a better hold of it, I'll massage you again. You might have to make do for now."

Coralie was already panting when she spoke. Although Skylar couldn't sense it, he could tell that Coralie was trying hard to exert more strength.

"When my legs are recovered, I will take you around the world. You can go anywhere you want in the world and I will accompany you."

Skylar said.

Since there was a reaction in his toes before, it gave him hope and allowed him to know that his legs could be recovered.

Coralie didn't know that his legs were showing slight improvement. In order to prevent Skylar from feeling burdened, she wiped off her sweat and turned to look at him with a smile. She said, "As long as you're there, I'll be happy wherever I am."

The massage took about an hour, and Coralie was hunched the entire time. When it was over, she almost could not straighten her upper body.

Seeing how exhausted she was, Skylar was about to get down the bed to help her.

"What do you want to do? Let me help you," Coralie stopped him.

"No, I can do it myself," Skylar said.

"It's okay, it's okay. Do you want some water? I'll get it for you!"

Coralie had always felt that it was an arduous process for Skylar to get from the bed to the wheelchair. She propped herself with her hand on the bed, trying to stand up. She wanted to head to the kitchen, but she had been hunching for too long. As soon as she stood up all of a sudden, she lost her balance and bumped into the door.

"Ouch..." Coralie held her head and whispered.

"Are you okay?"

Skylar had never been this fed up with his legs until now. He saw when Coralie was about to hit the door and his first reaction was to get out of bed and pull her back, but when he tried to move his legs, he realized that he couldn’t control them.

"It's alright, it's alright," Coralie reassured him and did not dare to rub her head anymore. She stood up slowly, opened the door, and went to the kitchen to boil water.

When she was waiting for the water to boil, Skylar arrived in a wheelchair.

Coralie heard the sound of the wheelchair and knew that it was Skylar. She didn't say anything until the water was ready. She poured two cups of hot water and turned to Skylar, holding a cup for herself.

"Are you really treating me like a disabled person?"
