You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 386

"What's wrong? How has your favorite future daughter-in-law offended you?"

Queenie looked at the menu and ordered coffee while she teased Lillian.

Queenie was at the banquet the day before and saw Lilian making a scene there. In her view, Lillian's

action was a disgrace to the Holland family!

"Alas..."

Lillian took a deep sigh as she did not know where to start.

Queenie sat in the same position for a while, raised her eyes, and said, "Should we change our table?

Why is there such a heavy smell of gasoline around here?"

The smell of gasoline smell was overbearing, especially since Lilian was soaked in gasoline for such a

long time. Although she went home to shower and changed her clothes, there was still a faint smell of

gasoline all over her body.

"Why do you want to change our table? It is so troublesome."

"What's the trouble? Just ask the service staff to assist us. It's not pleasant to bear with the smell of

gasoline."

Queenie would not have thought that the smell came from Lillian.

She was disgusted by the smell of gasoline. Therefore, she wanted to change her table immediately.

Lillian knew that she could not hide it anymore and said, "Actually, the smell comes from me."

She initially thought that she did nothing wrong in the morning.

However, after she had taken a shower and thought about the recordings, she reflected on her actions.

"The smell comes from you?" Queenie understood what she meant. "Did you actually go over to

Skylar's house this morning and threaten suicide?"

She remembered Lillian's overreaction yesterday, and it was not impossible for her to do such a thing.

"Yes, I did..."

"You... Didn't you say that you will let the children decide on their own matters? Why do you keep

interfering? Moreover, what is so good about Valerie?"

Queenie cast a disdainful look at Lillian.

In fact, when Anthony was going to marry Lillian, Queenie and Elsa strongly opposed it. After all,

Lillian's family was from the countryside, and she had a bunch of relatives and siblings. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

At that time, Anthony was tired of eating lavish meals. He wanted to try something new and could not

stop eating simple dishes.

"Yes, I used to think that Valerie was great. Unfortunately, when I was at Skylar's house just now, he

played a recording for me to listen..."

Lillian was in a dilemma, and she told Queenie almost everything about the recording.

Queenie could not believe her ears!

"What! It was all Valerie's doing? At that time, we were baffled by how a newly established foreign

company in A City would have the ability to compete with Skyton Corporation. There really was a

mole!"

Hearing this, Queenie could not hold back her anger.

Skylar was her nephew, and she had watched him grow up.

At the most critical moment for Skyton Corporation, she had advised her husband to help Skylar.

However, at that time, the George family could not help him because of the death of Grandmother

Holland.

Queenie had always felt guilty about it.

"I do not believe that Valerie is such a person, but the recordings seemed genuine." Lillian frowned.

"That is why I invited you to come today. I want to ask you, what do you think of Valerie?"

She couldn't help but address Valerie by her first name again when she spoke.

After all, she had favored Valerie for so long.

Queenie looked at Lillian. She knew that the marriage between Lillian and Anthony was only on paper.

She did not really consider Lilian her sister-in-law.

Yet now, seeing that Lilian had made such a scene, she could not help but say, "Lilian, to be honest,

you are from the countryside. We looked at you with discriminating eyes, but Valerie, who is proud and

arrogant, treats you better than her own mother. Do you think her intentions are pure?"

"So what if I am from the countryside?"

When Lillian heard this, she was slightly offended. She understood well that Queenie and Elsa had

looked down on her in the past.

She thought that things would change for the better after so many years. However, she did not expect

Queenie to tell the truth.

"Lilian, if you do not want to listen to my words, I'll leave. Our relationship was never close from the

start. It is fine with me if you don't like to listen to the truth."

Queenie did not bother to be polite with Lillian.

Her husband was the president of the George family. She and her husband loved each other very

much. They had money and power, and they did not need to build a good relationship with Lillian.

"Alright, please continue."

Although Lillian was angry, she had to listen to Queenie.

"We've known Valerie since she was young. She is not as she looks and she can be very calculative

and petty. She only says what you want to hear. If she treats you with even the slightest bit of sincerity,

then you should be thankful to God."

At this time, Queenie's coffee was served. She picked it up and took a sip. Her eyes were full of ridicule

when she looked at Lillian.

"How is it possible? Valerie buys me many things. I have a lot of limited-edition clothes and bags given

by Valerie."

Lillian couldn't help but argue after hearing Queenie's words.

"Most of the things she gives you do not even suit you. You're getting older, and you should wear

clothes that suit your age. You are my big brother's wife. People will make a joke out of you when you

go out."

Queenie took the opportunity to "guide" Lillian, just in case she went out and embarrassed the Holland

family.

"How could the clothes I wear not suit me?"

Lillian slammed the table and stood up.

She had a weakness. Because she felt inferior, her self-esteem was very low. She was most afraid of

others talking about her tastes and her background.

Queenie looked at Lilian, who was throwing a fit, took another sip of coffee. She replied, "Well, if you

want to continue to believe Valerie, just do so. Do not look for me. If it wasn't for the fact that you are

my brother's wife, I would not even say a word to you."

After saying that, Queenie turned around and left.

Actually, Lillian understood what Queenie was saying. Back then, when Anthony had wanted to marry

her, Grandmother Holland had approved, but Queenie and Elsa looked down on her.

As a result, Lillian did not like to attend the Holland family's gathering. Each time, she would find an

excuse to go out on a trip.

That was also why she was not at the Holland family's banquet when Skylar first brought Coralie to

meet the family.

When Lillian returned home, she wanted to find someone else to talk about this matter, but she realized

that she did not have any close friends.

She only had a bunch of poker friends.

However, at that moment, the doorbell rang. The maid went to open the door and Lillian followed.

When the door opened, Lillian saw Valerie standing at the door!

"Auntie Ford, does... does Skylar hate me? Did he tell you anything today?"

When Valerie saw Lillian, she immediately rushed to ask her, and her eyes were red.

"I went to Skylar's place today."

"And? What did Skylar say?"

Valerie's face was donned with makeup, and her eyes were full of eagerness and expectation.

"He..." Lillian was about to say something about the recordings, but she hesitated when she looked at

Valerie and said, "He did not say anything."

"I see..."

Valerie looked at Lillian with disappointed eyes.

"How about you tell me what I should do next?"

Lillian looked at Valerie and asked.

She wanted to see what Valerie would say.

Lillian finally used whatever emotional intelligence she had.
