You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 135

Skylar Holland hauled Coralie Chariott home and opened the door.

Valerie Rae was giving instructions to the servants who were arranging her things at home. When she

heard the door opening, she hopped down the stairs. When she saw Skylar holding Coralie's hand, she

was stunned for a moment but she soon regained her poise. She continued hopping towards him and

greeted, "Skylar, you're back!"

Perhaps she was happy to see Skylar, or perhaps she had yet to get accustomed to walking on one

foot, so when she was about to hop over the last step, she slipped...

And she fell into Skylar's arms.

Skylar secured her with his right hand reflexively, but his left hand never left Coralie's.

"Skylar, thank you."

Valerie was still lingering in Skylar's arms, showing no intention of getting up."

Coralie looked at them coldly but her heart was aching.

In the end, she simply shook Skylar's hand away and retorted, "I'm flattered that you have brought me

here to witness your loving relationship, but I'm sorry, I still have other matters to attend to. I shall take

my leave now."

Seeing that Coralie was about to hurry upstairs, Skylar glared at the servant next to him and said

angrily, "Didn't you see that she almost fell? Why are you still standing there?"

The servants didn't expect that Skylar would be angry, so they rushed over to help Valerie up.

"Skylar, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lost my balance. I shouldn't have made Miss Chariott unhappy," Like

a child who had committed a mistake, Valerie stood up slowly with an embarrassed look over her face.

She looked at the servants and asked, "Shall... shall I leave?"

"You should leave then!"

At that moment, Coralie really wanted to blurt those words out, but it was an undeniable fact that

Valerie had saved her. She was torn in between her true wishes and her obligations to her presumed

'savior'.

She zipped her lips and trudged to the guest bedroom.

She just had to endure for one more night. Then, she would be free...

After this night, she would take her time to recover slowly.

......

Coralie was lying in the bedroom, tossing and turning about.

In less than half an hour, someone knocked on the door.

"Miss Chariott, Young Master Holland is requesting your presence at dinner downstairs."

It was the voice of a servant.

"Tell him that I'm not eating."

"Just come down here even if you're not eating!"

As soon as Coralie finished speaking, Skylar's voice rang out.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

He knew that she would refuse to eat, so he came up to knock on her door personally.

Coralie ignored him. She really didn't want to go out. She didn't care what feelings Skylar bore for

Valerie, but the current scenario was that Valerie was ill and she was Coralie's savior. No one could

stand to offend her.

However, at this moment, his voice pealed from outside, "You stay here. I'll get the spare key."

Although the door could be locked from the inside, it could also be unlocked from the outside with a

key.

Hearing this, Coralie immediately opened the door, "That's not necessary, I'll come out now."

After that, she went downstairs before him.

A few dishes were sprawled over on the dining table downstairs. There was also fresh watermelon

juice. It was indeed an assorted menu for a dinner.

Valerie was already sitting in a wheelchair by the table. When she saw Coralie making her way

downstairs, she smiled sweetly, "Miss Chariott, you're here."

Coralie looked at Valerie. She really wanted to know whether the incident was truly an accident or if it

was a plot that Valerie was concocting.

Thinking how she hadn't thanked Valerie for saving herself that day, she uttered, "Miss Rae, thank you

for saving me that day. You ended up losing one of your legs. I am really sorry."

Her gratitude sounded sincere. She had decided to presume the accident to be unplanned and keep

her suspicions away from the light of the day.

Therefore, she naturally felt a little heavy-hearted with everything contained away.

Valerie didn't seem to expect that Coralie would thank her. She shook her head and said, "At that time,

I was the only one next to you, and you were not feeling well. When I saw the car coming over, I didn't

think much about it. Although I lost my leg, I would still do the same even if I know what the outcome

would be."

She looked at Coralie sincerely.

At this moment, Skylar was making his way downstairs. When he heard Valerie's words, he seemed to

be a little surprised.

"Valerie, your leg got injured because you saved Coralie. Therefore, I will be responsible for your

following treatment as well as your living expenses in the future."

Although Skylar was still angry at Coralie, he still knew which side he had to stand on.

"Skylar, I'm not short of money. You know that."

Valerie was not foolish. Skylar's words had completely revealed his stance. After saying this, she

lowered her head and drew a disappointed look.

Coralie was at a loss for a moment.

She hoped that Skylar would stop beating around the bush and chase her out of here. It was better

than keeping her hopes up.

"Let's eat."

Skylar looked at the empty seat beside Coralie and Valerie, and finally settled himself beside Valerie.

He knew how Valerie's illness would be triggered if he were to get close to another woman.

No one spoke through dinner.

Coralie took her plate to the kitchen when she was done with her meal

The servants immediately followed her and said, "Let me do it."

Coralie did not hesitate. After handing the plate to them, she went back to her room.

......

Coralie locked the door. She wasn't protecting herself from Skylar but Valerie.

She thought that she could spend the night peacefully.

Coralie was already sound asleep when the clock ticked eleven. However, all of a sudden, she felt a

weight pressing down on her and she couldn't breathe properly.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Skylar kneeling over her on the bed and pressing on her body.

He was looking at her from above.

"What are you doing?"

When her eyes adjusted to the figure before her, Coralie was shocked.

"Coralie, you have been anticipating for the contract to end, haven't you?"

Skylar was talking on top of Coralie as he unbuttoned his pants.

Looking at his behavior, Coralie understood in an instant. He was obviously trying to have an enjoyable

session for the last time before the contract ended.

She did not resist. She just lay there quietly, waiting for him to take off his clothes. Then, she answered

faintly, "Yes, I can't wait for it to end."

Coralie felt her heart steeping in a pool of dismay.

About a few months ago, she was still hoping that she and Skylar would stay together forever. She was

still wishing for an amicable separation if they ever had to go their own ways. She wanted to leave him

with a good memory.

However, when that car accident happened on that fateful day, everything changed for the worst.

Skylar was furious when he heard her answer. He held Coralie's face with one hand and looked at her

face, his expression screamed fury, "Do you think that I will still touch you after you slept with

Franklin?"

Coralie's heart shrunk. It hurt so much.

He still did not believe in her. He still refused to acknowledge that nothing had happened between her

and Franklin Moore.

However, Coralie merely snapped back, "What are you doing now then, President Holland?"

"I want you to use this, to pleasure me."

Skylar pointed at Coralie's pink soft lips, and his eyes were filled with lust.
