You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 517

Patricia was flattering her. Alma was stunned. She wanted to agree with her immediately, but she kept her guessing. She replied slowly, "Lucille has been hospitalized recently, so I'm a bit busy. What about next week? It should be okay."

"Sure, let's keep in touch."

When Patricia saw her attitude, she could no longer hold on to her smile, but she still maintained the manner that a noble lady should have.

The three women left.

After sitting down, Alma was in a good mood.

Natasha took the opportunity to say, "Mom, she invited you to have tea together. Why don't you buy me that dress?"

"You only know about the dress! Why do you want to dress up so nicely? You should go plain and approach Lucille."

Alma raised her head to gaze at her good-for-nothing daughter. When she thought of Lucille having Franklin and then Zoel, she was smoldering with anger.

"Why should I approach her? For what?"

Natasha scorned.

"For the fact that her boyfriend was powerful enough that Mrs. Jenkins was willing to invite me to have tea."

Natasha had clearly seen the changes in Patricia's attitude when she was at the side a moment ago. However, she did not understand how a museum owner could be so powerful.

She muttered, "Is that her boyfriend? He just showed up in her ward. Did he admit himself that he was her boyfriend? Besides, Lucille has a child with her. He is so rich and can have all kinds of women by his side. Why does he take a fancy to Lucille?"

Hearing this, Alma also felt Natasha's words made sense.

However, she saw clearly in the ward that Zoel was standing up for Lucille. She lowered her voice and told Natasha, "Since Lucille is still at the hospital, visit her when you have the time. Talk to her nicely and ask about her relationship with Zoel as well. If it is true, you can ask him to introduce someone to you."

"Me? I don't want to go, and Lucille will definitely not let him introduce someone to me!"

"Why not?"

"Because last time..." Natasha took a sip of coffee and awkwardly told Alma about what she put in the cookie box last time.

She did not even dare to tell about the photos that she sent to Lucille.

"Are you crazy? Why didn't you discuss it with me before you did it?"

Alma slammed her palm on the table in rage!

The waiter had no choice but to shush them again.

Natasha muttered in a low voice, "How would I know that she found another man? I thought she was dumped by President Moore..."

She had never expected that Lucille could make a comeback so quickly.

"Apologize to her!" Alma instructed firmly.

"What? I don't want to!"

"You have no choice. Don't you want to get rich without working? With the status of our family, we can only marry you to someone decent. The Moore family was a huge bonus for us last time. If you want to get a better man, you have to rely on Lucille!"

For Alma, a daughter was just someone who could provide her a good life and for her to show off.

Lucille was not as valuable as Natasha to her. "Stop talking nonsense! Otherwise, I won't give you any money for the next month!" Alma hissed.

"Alright."

What Natasha feared most was to have no money to spend.

Lucille should have been discharged from the hospital early because she had a smooth delivery, but due to Aurora's problem, she had to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

Marie sent her meals everyday when she was in the hospital.

However, Zoel was the one who accompanied Lucille most of the time. Although she had repeatedly told him that she didn't need it, Zoel still came everyday.

On the fifth day of Lucille's hospitalization, Marie went back to prepare dinner after sending lunch to her.

Aurora was still sleeping while Lucille was reading a book on the side.

"Knock, knock, knock."
