You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 119

Coralie sat in the office and felt a little remorseful. After all, Valerie would be her colleague. They would definitely see each other regularly. Besides, Valerie had never been hostile towards Coralie. In contrast, Coralie seemed to be the one in the wrong given her unfriendly attitude earlier.

Seeing that her colleagues had not returned to the office yet, she pulled open the drawer and wanted to munch on some snacks.

When she opened the drawer and saw a pack of tampons, she realized that her period seemed to have been late for about a week. As a matter of fact, Coralie's period was never on time. This was not the first time it was late.

However, the unusual symptoms she was experiencing lately prompted her to search for pregnancy symptoms on the Internet.

Originally, Coralie assumed that the symptom of pregnancy was the nauseous morning sickness, but after her search, she found that the symptom of pregnancy was different for every individual. Some of them developed morning sickness, some might feel sleepy, some had a bad appetite and some of them showed a better appetite.

Coralie suddenly recalled that she had more difficulties getting up in the morning and her appetite was bad all the time...

Suddenly, she felt a bad premonition.

She dashed to the pharmacy at the entrance of the company and bought a pregnancy test stick. Then she hid it in her sleeves and walked into the elevator.

Coralie went into the elevator on the first floor. When it reached the second floor, the elevator stopped. Felicia and Valerie entered the elevator together. Instinctively, Coralie hid her hand carrying the pregnancy test stick behind her back.

Felicia spoke as soon as she saw Coralie, "Coralie, you ate too little just now. I got you some fruits."

As she spoke, she raised the apple in her hand and was about to give it to Coralie.

However, Coralie was holding the pregnancy test stick in one hand and her mobile phone in the other. She quickly said, "Please hold on to it for me. I'm going to the bathroom. Thank you."

As she spoke, she did not even dare to raise her head.

Valerie, who had been standing next to her, did not speak but had her eyes fixed on Coralie's arm that she hid behind her.

Obviously, Coralie was hiding something.

However, in the elevator, Valerie did not speak nor probe. When the elevator reached the sixth floor, Coralie and Felicia got off the elevator. Valerie quickly pressed the button which showed a seven. Then she got off on the seventh floor and walked down to the sixth floor using the stairs.

When Coralie arrived at the sixth floor, she rushed straight into the bathroom. She couldn't wait to open the package and start testing.

The result came out quickly. When the liquid reached the middle section, two red bars, one deep and the other shallow, were clearly visible.

This was completely different from the previous result.

If she hadn't seen Valerie earlier, she would have confessed openly to Skylar about her pregnancy. However, since she had seen Valerie today, she had to think twice about it.

Coralie threw the pregnancy test stick into the trash can and left in a hurry. Her heart was in a mess.

Seeing that Coralie had exited the bathroom, Valerie walked in calmly.

After looking at two toilet stalls, Valerie caught glimpse of a pregnancy test stick in one of the trash cans. She hesitated for a moment, and then took out a tissue from her pocket. She picked up the trash can and got her hands on the stick.

When she saw the test results, her face darkened.

She knew that Coralie had just found out about her pregnancy. She didn't know if it was a good or bad thing...

Valerie first went upstairs in a composed manner. When she saw Skylar in the office, she knocked on the door.

In fact, there was one thing that Valerie didn't lie to Coralie about. It was indeed the decision both of their parents made that she came to this company. Skylar had no say in it.

Skylar looked up and saw Valerie was outside. He made a gesture for her to come in.

In fact, Skylar didn't want to have too much to do with Valerie. After all, he was married to Coralie, and he hoped to go on with Coralie for a long time.

"Skye."

Valerie called his nickname affectionately. After all, she had been addressing him in such a way for a long time, and she had no intention of changing it. "What's wrong?"

Skylar held a tablet computer in his hand and didn't look up.

"Skye, I just met Miss Chariott in the cafeteria. She seems to have a bad appetite recently. When we were eating, she seemed to be retching. I just thought of asking you, is she pregnant?" Valerie's most adept skill was to feign innocence.

She pretended to be harmless and caring to Coralie.

In fact, she was obviously aware that Coralie did not retch. In front of a man like Skylar, who had no experience about women's pregnancy, he might not understand if she just told him that Coralie had a bad appetite. However, if she said that Coralie was retching, he must be able to pick up on it.

As expected, there was no change in Skylar's expression at first, but when he heard Valerie's words, he placed the tablet on the table and looked up at Valerie. The look on his face changed slightly. "Retching?"

When Valerie saw Skylar's expression, she knew for certain that Skylar wasn't cognizant of it, so she quickly said, "Yes, I heard that you and Miss Chariott have lived together for such a long time. You two have also been married for so long. Is she..."

Was Coralie pregnant?

Valerie didn't push on the matter, but Skylar understood what she wanted to say.

"I see. You can leave now."

However, Skylar did not show any sign of surprise. After all, although some people in the company knew about his relationship with Coralie, most people had no idea about it.

If he wanted to ask Coralie about it, he had to ask her at night.

However, Valerie didn't intend to leave. When she saw that Skylar did not respond, she pretended to be angry and said, "Skye, you've gone too far. How could you not tell me that she was pregnant? I could have bought some children's clothes while I was abroad. The quality and designs are better there."

Skylar was different from Valerie. If he did not confirm it personally, he would hold his judgment. After all, it would be a joke if Coralie wasn't pregnant at all.

"I'll ask her at night."

Hearing Skylar's words, Valerie immediately added, "Skye, don't tell me...you don't know about it? I didn't expect Miss Chariott to hide such an important thing from you. Could it be that the child isn't yours?" After she said that, she immediately acted as if she had divulged something she wasn't meant to. "Oh, I was such an absent-minded. Of course it's impossible."

In fact, this kind of words wasn't enough to anger Skylar at all, because Skylar clearly knew that Coralie was not the kind of person who would cheat on him.

However, after being nagged constantly by Valerie, he couldn't hold it in. He picked up his mobile phone and called Coralie.

As soon as the phone was picked up, Skylar said, "Ask for a leave and go to the hospital with me."

It was just one sentence.

Coralie, who was on the other side of the phone, was astonished. "Hmm? What do you mean?"

Seeing that Valerie was by his side, Skylar did not put his words evidently. Instead, he said, "I'll wait for you in the parking lot. You can come down after you've asked for leave."
