You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 78

"What's wrong with these reporters..."

Before she could react, a bunch of reporters had rushed into the ICU area. They were facing Coralie and Franklin, who were standing on the side, and they kept taking pictures.

"Hello, may I ask if Madam Xander is in this intensive care unit?"

A reporter placed a microphone directly in front of Coralie and asked her.

"I..."

"Please leave!"

Franklin stepped in front of Coralie and said this to the reporters. He drew the curtains in Grandmother Holland's ICU so that they could not see what was inside.

The reporters looked at Franklin from head to toe. Someone recognized him and said, "I know who he is. He is the young master of the Moore family, and his mother is a member of the Holland family."

Hearing that Franklin was related to the Holland family, the reporters abandoned Coralie and surrounded him in an instant.

"Mr. Moore, could you please tell us who is in this ward?"

"Are you here at the hospital to see your great-grandmother?"

"Mr. Moore, can you tell us what you are doing in the hospital?"

The reporters asked one question after the other.

They didn't recognize Coralie, so they naturally gave up asking her any questions.

Franklin pretended to be puzzled and looked at the reporters. "My Aunt is ill. I am here to visit her. Is there any problem?"

"Aunt?"

"Yes."

Franklin brushed his coat and said this quite naturally. It was impossible to tell that he was lying.

"Is your Aunt inside the room?"

There were reporters who didn't believe him. Franklin didn't look like a filial son who had come to the hospital to see his Aunt. There was something strange about this matter.

"I can open the curtains for you to see, but if my Aunt is inside, and not my Great-grandmother, could you bear the responsibility of not trusting me?"

Franklin narrowed his eyes and looked at the reporter who was questioning him. He said this quite pleasantly. There was no trace of anger in his voice, but he seemed oppressive.

The reporter immediately retreated.

The reporter changed the topic to Coralie and asked, "Then this lady is..."

"She is my wife."

After saying that, Franklin raised his hand and moved Coralie toward him. He placed his hand on her shoulder, creating an intimate scene.

"I am not!" After Coralie said that, she realized that she would expose the matter of Grandmother Holland's illness, if the reporter found out about her identity. She quickly added, "I haven't agreed to his pursuit. Please have some self-respect, Mr. Moore."

As she spoke, she discreetly pulled off Franklin's hand that was on her shoulder.

The two of them were secretly arguing with each other, but in the eyes of the reporters, this was a couple flirting with each other. No one doubted this.

"Please leave quickly, or I'll call the police."

At this time, a young doctor wearing glasses and a white coat came from the distance, with seven or eight security guards behind him.

Coralie recognized him at a glance. This was Dr. Harvey Felton, whom she had met when she came to this hospital for the first time.

When the reporters heard that the police might come, and they saw the group of security guards, they immediately gave up, apologized and left.

"Miss Chariott, I'm sorry that I'm late. They didn't discover anything, did they?"

Skylar had already ordered Harvey to pay attention to the security around Grandmother Holland's ward, in order not to let outsiders know that Grandmother Holland was hospitalized here. He did not want the reporters to know of this.

Generally, the reporters wouldn't dare to break into this hospital, and he wasn't worried about this matter. He didn't expect that they would be so bold this time.

"No, they didn't, thanks to Mr. Moore's quick thinking."
