You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 398

Unlike Coralie, when Xenia turned around and saw that woman, her happy expression immediately faded and the corners of her mouth curled into a slight smile.

She tugged at her T-shirt and said awkwardly, "Auntie, are you shopping too?"

Seeing that Xenia, who usually did not bother about others, behaved in such a respectful attitude, Coralie could immediately guess the woman's identity. She must be Harvey's mother!

"Yes." Harvey's mother took in Xenia from head to toe with a strange look in her eyes. "Xenia, do you usually dress like this? It is different from what you wore the other day."

"I..." Xenia's face changed slightly and she quickly explained, "I was playing squash with a friend just now. That is why I'm in sports attire."

"Do you play squash with jeans?"

Harvey's mother clearly knew that she was lying.

"Well... The sweatpants were soiled just now, therefore..."

Xenia could no longer make up excuses.

Seeing the situation, Coralie immediately stepped forward to help. She went to Harvey's mother and said, "Nice to meet you, Auntie. You are Dr. Felton's mother, right?"

"Who are you?"

Harvey's mother looked at her and saw that she was dressed casually. She thought that Coralie was just Xenia's ordinary friend, therefore she was reluctant to greet her.

Coralie knew what she was thinking and immediately introduced herself. "Auntie, I am Skylar's wife. Skylar and Dr. Felton are good friends."

"Oh, you are Skylar's wife! No wonder you look so knowledgeable and dressed in such low profile attire."

As soon as she heard Skylar's name, Harvey's mother, who had been expressionless just now, immediately became friendly.

"Auntie, you are flattering me."

Coralie quickly humbled herself.

Harvey's mother smiled, "You girls are shopping, right? Then I won't disturb you any further. Go ahead."

"Alright, we will leave now, Auntie."

"Goodbye, Auntie!"

Coralie and Xenia said their goodbyes to Harvey's mother and then disappeared in a flash.

"Thank you, Coralie! You saved my life. Otherwise, I would not be able to explain why I'm playing squash in jeans!"

Xenia felt that she had escaped from a crisis and was overjoyed.

It was also the first time when Coralie felt that the title of Mrs. Holland indeed came in handy.

However, when she thought about Harvey's mother's attitude, she was worried for Xenia. "Why do I feel that Dr. Felton's mother is not easy to get along with?"

"That's true!" Xenia heard what she said and immediately felt as if she had found a soulmate. "Oh! Let me tell you. The moment I entered the dining room that day and saw Auntie's face, I immediately knew that I wore the right dress!"

"What did Auntie wear that day?" Coralie asked.

"What do you think? Despite the hot weather, she wore a formal dinner dress! If I wore a T-shirt with jeans, she would definitely kick me out!"

It was a painful memory for Xenia when she thought about that day.

Coralie gave her a sympathetic look.

After they arrived at the coffee shop, they sat down and ordered a cup of coffee. Xenia continued to complain, "Harvey had mentioned to me before that his mother was more traditional and had shown me her photo. Therefore, I decided to wear a dress at the last minute."

"But doesn't that mean that you will need to pretend for the rest of your life?"

Coralie felt that it was not a good thing.
