You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 366

Skylar stood there, his hands tightly gripping his pants. He was exerting a great deal of strength. Coralie looked at the veins on the back of his hands. For a moment, she forgot that she was wearing the clothes of the photo studio.

She opened her arms to hug Skylar, patting his back gently with her hand, and said, "May the pain disappear."

Coralie remembered that back when she was still a kid, whenever she fell down, her mother would hold her and say this.

When her mother said those words, she really felt that it wasn't that painful anymore.

She hoped that it would be effective for Skylar as well.

However, that was not the case.

The clothes on Coralie were bare- shouldered, and Skylar was leaning against her neck. His sweat dripped down from his forehead to Coralie's shoulder.

"It'll be alright soon. Don't be scared, Skylar."

Coralie held Skylar in her arms and kept comforting him.

Coralie had no idea what else she could do apart from comforting him.

The shop assistants who didn't know what was going on inside and they all stood nervously outside.

They asked kindly, "Do you need any help?"

"No, it's alright. We'll be done soon."

Coralie hurriedly replied.

She was afraid that the clerk would suddenly come in and see Skylar in his current state.

The shop assistants exchanged glances, wondering if the same incident that happened in another store all those years ago was repeating itself.

Finally, Skylar's leg was no longer hurting, but he was still holding on to Coralie. He murmured, "My dear wife, if I had known that holding you would allow me to endure this much pain, I would have asked you to come to E country."

Skylar had lived in pain for such a long time when he was there.

During that period of time, Skylar was almost on the brink of despair. The amount of pain he had to endure on a daily basis made him lose the hope of living on.

"I told you that I would accompany you." Coralie patted Skylar's back. "Are you alright now?"

"Yes."

Skylar stood up slowly.

Coralie also stood up. When she looked into the mirror in the locker room, she realized that the wedding dress on her body was not only wrinkled, but it also had a large patch of sweat on it.

"What... What should we do?" She asked worriedly.

Coralie looked at the beautiful dress that had been ruined.

She suddenly remembered the manager's words. It was because of its high price that no one had rented it until now...

"It's okay, well buy it."

Skylar knew what she was worried about, so he put his hand on her shoulder to comfort her.

Most of his clothes had been drenched in sweat as well.

When Skylar and Coralie went out, the assistants didn't dare ask what had happened. However, when they saw the state of Coralie's wedding dress, they looked at Skylar nervously, "Mr. Holland, the wedding dress..."

"Well take it."

The shop assistants immediately heaved a huge sigh of relief upon hearing Skylar's reply.

Otherwise, even the manager wouldn't be able to explain why the new wedding dress was in such a state.

Coralie picked a few more sets of wedding dresses that she planned to wear on the following day.

When they arrived home, Skylar took a bath and changed into a new set of clothes. When he came down, he saw Coralie staring at her phone in a daze.

"What's wrong?"

Skylar had already guessed that Coralie was worried about Hendric when he saw that she looked dazed.

As expected, Coralie looked up at Skylar and said with worry in her eyes, "Skylar, let's go check up on Hendric."

"No. If we go now, then all of it would've been in vain." Skylar shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Coralie asked curiously.

"You'll understand when you're done with your photoshoot tomorrow," came the reply.

Skylar had a hint of a smile in his eyes as he spoke.

The next day, Skylar didn't face any pain in his legs while they were taking the photos.

After the photoshoot, Coralie and Skylar changed back into their own clothes and went out. It was already dark outside when they were done.

"Let's go and pick Hendric up."
