You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 9

As soon as the nurse held Coralie Chariott's arm, she immediately leaned forward and touched her forehead. After confirming it, she asked her worriedly, "Why did you come to get the marriage certificate when you are having a fever?"

Coralie was embarrassed and asked the nurse, "Will this affect the blood test?"

"That's possible."

Answered the nurse.

Alison laughed and said, "Sister Corrie, are you so afraid that the other party will break off the engagement, that you came to get the marriage certificate when you're sick?"

Upon hearing Alison's mockery, Coralie clenched her fingers and asked the nurse for help, "Can you draw my blood first? If there is any problem, we can try..."

When the nurse heard of Alison's constant ridicule towards Coralie, she was also irritated and agreed to take her blood first.

Fortunately, the test result came out normal.

Coralie came out of the examination room and as soon as she stepped out, she saw Howard standing not far away, looking embarrassed.

She wanted to avoid him, but she heard her name as soon as she took a step.

"Coralie?"

At this point, Coralie could only turn around awkwardly.

Howard was wearing a formal suit and leather shoes. Under his white shirt, she could see that there was a brand-new Longines watch on his wrist.

"Howard."

Coralie straightened up and greeted him with a smile, but she couldn't help but think of a sentence—

"I'll always meet the person I don't want to meet the most on my worst day."

"You're dressed like this. Don't tell me you're here..."

"I'm here to get my marriage certificate."

Before Howard could finish his words, Coralie replied and tied her hair up at the same time.

"How are your mother and brother?"

Howard asked her.

"It has nothing to do with you, isn't it?"

Coralie sneered. The time when she needed help the most and had asked for the money that she had put into their matrimonial home so that she could save her family, but in the end, what she had gotten was a heartless rejection instead.

But now he was pretending to care for her? It only made her feel even more disgusted.

"Sister Corrie, don't tell me that you are married to an old man just to save your family, would you?"

Alison had just gone to the bathroom to fix her makeup. When she saw Howard and Coralie talking, she quickly came over.

She had specially picked out a beautiful dress and matched it with high heels just for this occasion. When she stood beside Coralie who was dressed plainly, there was an obvious difference between them.

After hearing Alison's remarks, Howard's face darkened. He looked at Coralie and said, "Coralie, you don't have to do so. If you are really in trouble, I can help you if I can."

"Howard Schultz, what's the use of you pretending to be such a kind and caring person?"

Coralie felt ridiculous. If Howard had drawn a clear line with her, she might actually feel better.

"Honey, since Sister Corrie is married to a rich guy, she won't need your money anymore." Alison hooked Howard's arm and asked Coralie scornfully, "Sister Corrie, where is your husband? Is he that old that he had to wait outside for you to push him in? Hahaha."

Alison strongly believed that Coralie, who was a divorcee and was in urgent need of money, would not be able to find a decent man.

It would be good enough if she could even get herself an old man.

"Alison, you wouldn't want to quarrel with me when you are here to get your marriage certificate, would you?"

Coralie looked at her coldly and clenched her fists.

"All right, we got the marriage certificates. Let's stop talking."

Howard tried to persuade her.

"Hmph, honey, don't you want to see what kind of husband your ex-wife has found? Is he in his 40s or 50s?"

Alison laughed evilly.

She was confident that Coralie couldn't find a decent man.

"That's her choice." In fact, Howard was also uncomfortable, so he said to Coralie, "Coralie, even if you are desperate for money, you don't have to rush to get married. You will not only have to take care of your family but also your old husband."

In fact, Howard wasn't actually concerned about her.

Obviously, he just didn't like the idea of another person having what he once owned.

"Do you all think that I will look for an old man?"

Coralie looked at the b*tch couple in front of her with a mocking look.
