You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 196

Houston had such thought.

Although Coralie was Madison's daughter, Zac Group had been looking for an opportunity to establish

its business in A City. That development project was indeed a rare opportunity.

Houston thought for a moment and then looked at the time. Then, he decided to ring Coralie.

After all, he had to tell her a lot of things so that she could be mentally prepared.

When the phone call was made, Coralie was just driven out of the house by Skylar.

"Hello."

Houston used his personal number to call, Coralie didn't know whose number it was.

"Coralie, it's me."

Hearing Houston's voice, Coralie immediately became excited, "Hello."

Hearing Coralie's voice, Houston paused and said, "I just discussed with the shareholders of the

company. Well, we have found a company who is willing to invest in Skyton Corporation."

"Really?"

Coralie was over the moon when she heard that.

Although Skylar treated her that way just now, she couldn't give up on Skylar.

"However, this company is owned by Watson Group. Watson Group is a large corporation abroad."

Houston didn't want to give Coralie false hope, he had to tell her about the marriage.

"Go ahead."

"I met the people from Watson Group before. Although they agreed to it, they requested for an

arranged marriage with Zac family, but I don't have a daughter."

Houston's words could not be more obvious!

Unless Coralie was stupid, she would understand what he meant.

"Pres, President Zac..." Coralie stammered, "You know that, I am Skylar's wife... I..."

Coralie never expected she was the bargaining chip for that investment.

However, after giving it some thought, why should someone invest in Skyton Corporation? She had

nothing left but herself...

"I know, but this is the other party's offer. It doesn't matter if dont agree, but this investment will be..."

Houston also understood that Coralie was in a dilemma.

He didn't want to force Coralie, but he knew better than Coralie that it might be the best chance for

Skyton Corporation.

"President Zac, actually I divorced once before I married Skylar. So, my marriage with Skylar is my

second marriage. Watson Group must be a big family. How could it be possible for a woman like me to

be married into such a family?"

When she married Skylar, Lillian had already made a commotion.

Moreover, Coralie was hoping that by belittling herself, the other party would reconsider.

"I know, but Watson Group is a foreign company. They are different with us, they don't care about it."

Listening to Houston's explanation, Coralie stood still, didn't know what to do.

Her hand was trembling while holding the phone.

After thinking for a while, he said to Houston, "President Zac, I, I'll think about it."

"Okay, this is my personal number. Let me know when you made up your mind."

Houston did not force her.

Coralie hung up the phone, turned around, and went back to the outside of the villa. She stood under

the window of Skylar's study and looked at the faint light from the study.

She felt excruciatingly sad.

She stood there and watched until the lights went off in the middle of the night. Then, Coralie turned

around and left.

When Coralie returned home, it was already late at night. Wayne and Hera were already asleep.

She curled up on the bed and covered her head in the quilt, but her hands couldn't stop trembling.

Tears ran down from the corners of her eyes, dampening a large part of the pillow.

......

The next morning, Wayne got up and saw Coralie at home. He was shocked. "Coralie, you're back?"

As Coralie cried on the previous night, here eyes were swollen like a peach.

She dared not to face Wayne. She could only cover her eyes and run to the kitchen, looking for an ice

bag to reduce the swelling on her eyes.

Although she tried her best to cover her eyes, Wayne still noticed Coralie's swollen eyes and asked

hurriedly, "Coralie, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you?"

"No, no, no, just go to class."

"I only have class at 10 o'clock." Wayne did not leave. He kept pestering Coralie, "Coralie, tell me what

happened. Are you worried about Brother Skylar's company?"

"No." Since Wayne already saw it, Coralie didn't intend to hide it anymore. She put her hand down and

opened her eyes wide and said to Wayne, "Have your senior told you anything about the Holland

family?"

By comparison, Jamie was considered to be related to the Holland family.

Hearing that, Wayne shook his head, "No, actually I rarely meet her now, I don't know why. Ever since I

confessed to her, she has been avoiding me."

In fact, Jamie was convinced by Queenie.

She was worried that Wayne confessed to her only because he knew her family was rich.

"I see... That's good." Coralie patted Wayne on the shoulder, "We're not in the same world as they are.

We should stay away from them."

Coralie hoped that she could restart everything.

She had never known Skylar...

"Coralie, did anything happen between you and Brother Skylar?"

Wayne knew Coralie well. She had a strong character. If there wasn't anything serious happened, why

would Coralie cry so hard?

"No, hurry up and go to school."

Coralie applied a leave from the company in the morning. She wanted to talk to Hera about her own

background.

If she were to marry into the Watson family as a daughter from the Zac family, she wouldn't be able to

hide it from her.

Wayne was driven away by Coralie.

After a while, someone knocked on the door from outside.

Coralie thought that it was Hera, who came back from morning exercise. When she opened the door

again, she found Skylar standing at the door.

"Skylar..."

Coralie looked at him, didn't know what to do.

Unlike her, Skylar's face was grey with fatigue, as if he hadn't slept for a whole night.

"Coralie, sign this."

Skylar said as he threw a stack of documents in front of Coralie.

Coralie looked back and saw a line of words on it — Divorce Settlement Agreement.

"I don't agree!"

Coralie almost collapsed when she saw the line!© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"It's not up to you." Skylar looked at Coralie, his eyes cold and unfamiliar, "Coralie, since you decided

to do this to me, you should have known I would do this."

"Skylar, how could you not believe me?"

Coralie looked at Skylar as well as the divorce settlement agreement, her heart almost shattered into

pieces.

She had been so persistent in helping Skylar, but what she got in return was that agreement?

"How could I not? Coralie, how dare you say these to me? Haven't you made me suffer enough?"

Skylar looked at Coralie and said, "Sign it quickly, don't waste my time."

"Waste your time?" Coralie looked at Skylar, her heart broken, "What do you mean by wasting your

time? Wasting your time doing what? You're going to marry Valerie, aren't you?"

Was he going to marry Valerie?

Hearing what Coralie said, Skylar's eyes darkened. After a long time, he said, "Yes, I want to marry her.

Just sign it."

Those words were like a sharp knife piercing into Coralie's heart.
