You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 475

The next day, the first thing Lucille did was to go home.

The Jules family was mainly led by Lucille's father, Marvin, who had his own construction team. He managed to develop several real estate properties and earned some money. Compared with other large enterprises, it was insignificant.

Lucille arrived early in the morning. When she pushed the door open and went in, she heard her stepmother, Alma Lane, and her stepsister, Natasha Jules, talking to each other in the dining room.

"Mom, did you borrow money using Lucille's documents? Please tell me you have borrowed the money already. You're not lying to me, are you? It's been so long. You promised to buy me a car," Natasha cried out.

"Don't worry. Your father borrowed a few million dollars with Lucille's documents last time. It will take a while," Alma comforted her.

"Oh? The Moore family will not discover it, right?"

"So what if they have discovered it? It's Lucille's business, not ours."

It was just a few sentences, yet Lucille understood it all.

Franklin was telling the truth!

"You... You took my documents to borrow money?" Lucille's voice suddenly rang.

Lucille pushed the door open and went in. Alma and Natasha were still eating. When they saw her coming in, they fell silent.

"What brought you here, Mrs. Moore?"

Alma did not expect that Lucille would come back at this time. From her words, she knew that Lucille had heard her conversation with Natasha.

However, she had nothing to fear.

Lucille was cowardly. Alma was sure that she would not create any trouble.

"Lucille, you're back! Have you had your breakfast? I'll get something for you."

Originally, Natasha only pretended to be kind in front of Marvin, but when she thought she needed to rely on Lucille to get a new car, she was in a good mood and decided to put on an act for a while.

"How could you borrow money with my identity? Are you trying to ruin my marriage?"

Alma brought Natasha in after Lucille's mother passed away.

Since they were young, the relationship between the three of them was not very good, but Lucille was weak and she could not compete with them in everything. She had been at a disadvantage since she was a child.

"Ruin your marriage?" Alma placed her spoon in the soup bowl and stood up when she heard Lucille's words. "If it wasn't for the lack of project funds, why do you think your father and I flattered the Moore family? Even if Franklin was their son, it is more than enough to match you!"

"But Franklin is already aware of what you two have done." Lucille was not good with words. She was obviously angry at that time, but she did not know how to refute them.

"So what? We had only borrowed some money. It's not like we will not pay them back," Alma argued.

"That's right, dear Lucille. I still have to rely on you for my new car." Natasha sat there and looked at Lucille with a smile.

They did not think that ruining Lucille's marriage was a big deal.

Lucille looked at the greedy mother-daughter duo and roared angrily, "I will tell Franklin today that I want a divorce. I will not let you two succeed, and I will not let you two cheat him again."

She did not want to be hated by Franklin.

"You, come back!" Alma saw that Lucille was about to leave. In a hurry, she pulled Lucille back, and then raised her arm...

Slap!

A slap fell on Lucille's face, clear and loud.

"What's wrong with you? You've just gotten married for a few days, and you've already sided with outsiders?" Alma scolded.

Lucille stood still at the spot where she was slapped. She felt her ears buzzing and her mind was blank.

She was stunned for a long time. Then, she finally came back to her senses. She looked at Alma and Natasha and said, "You two are the outsiders to me."

After that, she rushed out of the door.

What she thought about at that moment was not to argue with Alma, but to tell Franklin the truth. She could not let him suffer any more losses because of her.

"Stop right there!"
