You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 33

"It seems that you've become more sensible recently." Skylar said.

Skylar pulled himself together, putting on a cold facial expression and then looking at Coralie.

"What?" Coralie uttered.

"You knew I was acting just now, so you took the initiative to take your hand back. I thought you would keep it on for a while more." Skylar said.

Hearing this, Coralie smiled bitterly, and said, "Yes, I have been tormented by you so many times. If I don't learn to be smarter, my self-esteem will be trampled by you. In fact, there is barely any left."

In actual fact, she was actually reminiscing the warmth of Skylar's hand in her palm.

So as soon as the principal left, she quickly pulled back her hand. She was afraid that if she continued, it would make her flustered and make him look down on her even more.

"Well, it's good that you know." Skylar replied.

Hearing this answer, Skylar felt a little uneasy. Coralie's words seemed to suggest that this was all caused by him.

But in Skylar's view, everything happened because Coralie dumped him back then

Otherwise, everything would have been different.

The two of them went downstairs in silence. When they arrived at Skylar's car, he asked, "When did your brother get sick?"

He wondered why he did not hear about it from Coralie at all.

Coralie did not mention it. Perhaps, she really did not treat him as her own.

"A while ago."

She did not explain it clearly.

"Is it serious?" Skylar asked.

"It was OK, it was a deep burn. Fortunately, it was on his back. He has already undergone a transplant, and have just been discharged from the hospital."

Coralie answered seriously.

"Well, if he has any problem with his studies, you can contact me." Skylar said.

"Okay." Coralie uttered.

The two of them spoke in a very strange way. If someone was listening to them, no one would believe that they were a married couple.

Skylar drove off after sending Coralie to the community gate.

"Sister! Tell me, my eyesight is fine, isn't it?"

As soon as Coralie got out of the car, Wayne came out of nowhere and patted her on the shoulder.

"What's wrong with your eyes?" Coralie snorted.

"It's Brother Holland who sent you back just now, isn't it? Am I right?" Wayne exclaimed.

Wayne was very excited. After all, Skylar was the best brother-in-law in his mind. Now that Coralie came back in his car. "Did this mean that the handsome and rich husband that Coralie mentioned in the hospital, is in fact Skylar?" he wondered.

"Well, I ran into him and he gave me a lift home." Coralie replied.

Coralie was calm. She could not let any one else know about the deal between her and Skylar, especially her own brother and mother.

If they knew that she had sold herself to Skylar for that sum of money, they would blame themselves.

Wayne did not believe in her explanation, so he continued questioning "How could it be so coincidental? You went out for business and came home early, and he went home early too?"

"You should think more about your studies with that little brain of yours. You will soon return to school. Since you have been absent for so many classes, you should think about how to make up for it. Don't worry about me."

Coralie said to Wayne with a smile.

It was a deliberate change of topic.

Wayne accompanied her to buy vegetables, but he still pestered her all the way.

Coralie did not respond to him at first, but while she was in the elevator, she said seriously, "Wayne, I am indeed married to Skylar, but the relationship between me and him is not of an ordinary husband-wife relationship, so you must keep this from Mom, understand?"

She knew that if she did not say it clearly, Wayne would definitely continue asking until he got his answer.
