You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 335

"I understand, you can rest assured." Jayson answered Skylar's question, and he could not help but ask, "What's the risk of your surgery this time? Are you sure it's going to be fine?"

Jayson had never asked anything about the operation before.

However, when Skylar was about to leave, he still couldn't hold it in at the end.

After all, if anything were to happen to Skylar, Skyton Corporation would be doomed for real.

Although Hazel was capable, no one was as good as Skylar. In other words, he was the only one who could make Skyton Corporation develop further.

"Don't worry. When you see me again, I will be well as before."

Skylar gave Jayson a look of assurance.

Skylar then left with the medical staff.

On the plane, the doctor started massaging Skylar's legs. He spoke as he massaged, "President Holland, you're keeping this a secret from everyone, what if..."

Skylar lied to everyone.

The surgery he was going to do had a high theoretical success rate, but no human had done the surgery before. Skylar would be the first person in record.

"Nothing will happen, I am a very lucky person."

Skylar replied.

He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if the operation failed.

The reason why he was determined to do this operation was that the doctor explained that it would take him more than a few years to recover naturally; it might even take more than ten years. What was more important was that, even if he recovered, he might still have to use crutches for a lifetime.

Since Skylar had said so, the doctor didn't say anything more. He could only continue to massage Skylar's legs.

......

During the days when Skylar was away, Coralie would chat with Skylar via text every morning. Other than that, she would accompany Hendric to play during the day since he hadn't been enrolled in school yet. She even brought him and Hera abroad. She brought them to witness the ancient architectures to broaden their horizons.

The three of them were enjoying themselves for more than a month and didn't come back until February.

Wayne's work was different; he couldn't get any holidays even during the New Year. He said that he had to prepare for the upcoming competition, and he only came back on the night before the holidays.

On the night when Wayne returned, Coralie and Hera made some fortune cookies, with only five of them containing a fortune note within. As they were eating, Coralie and Skylar had a video call, and it was morning where Skylar was.

"Pick one and let Hendric eat it for you." Coralie took the jar of fortune cookies up before her phone as she said, "You might get a good one and you'll be lucky throughout the year!"

"What sort of tradition is that?"

"My family's tradition." Coralie said while pointing at the fortune cookies and asked, "Which one do you want? Tell me when you've picked it."

"You can choose any one for me."

"No, Dad, you have to choose this by yourself!" Hendric said as he grabbed a cookie while enjoying it with relish.

He ate it quickly and finished it in a few bites. Then he turned to Coralie and said, "Mom, there's nothing in here."

"It's alright. There are so many of them and all five of them are still there."

"Okay then." Hendric nodded disappointedly. He then looked at the pile of fortune cookies on the table and said, "But I'm almost full..."

Coralie looked at Hendric's pitiful face and pointed at a cookie which was obviously wrapped differently compared to the others, then she point at it and said, "Why don't you try this?"

"Sure!"

Hendric scooped the cookie into his bowl. As soon as he took a bite of it, he shouted, "Wow! There's a piece of fortune in here!"

He didn't care about anything else. He took the paper out and showed it to Skylar in the video call.

"Hendric will be lucky all year round this year!"

Coralie said happily.

Skylar was looking at the cookies. He could tell that the cookie that Coralie pointed for Hendric was obviously different from others; it was specially made for Hendric.

"Are you cheating?"

Skylar asked in a low voice.

"Oh, you'd better choose one quickly!"

Coralie immediately interrupted Skylar.

Although Hendric was young and he wouldn't be able to tell the difference between that cookie and the others, if Skylar said it, he would definitely know.

"This one."

Skylar was tired of looking at all the fortune cookies. He wanted to see Coralie, so he casually chose one.
