You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 127

Coralie stopped talking and lay quietly on the bed, waiting for Lillian to continue.

After all, in Lillian's eyes, Coralie was the sole cause of Valerie's disability.

"Do you know where Skylar is these days?"

Lillian said.

In fact, even if she didn't say it, Coralie knew that Skylar must be keeping Valerie company.

Although Coralie felt sad in her heart, she had no reason to stop him.

Because if the car crash turned out to be a real accident, Valerie did save Coralie in a way. She even lost a leg...

"He's accompanying Valerie, isn't he? I got it."

"It's good that you know."

Lillian still planned for Valerie to be her daughter-in-law. Especially after Coralie's miscarriage, she had made up her mind in pairing Skylar with Valerie up.

However, what Lillian did not know was that Valerie had also made plans for herself.

"Madam Ford, this is the special care area of our hospital. You shouldn't be here without authorization."

At this time, Harvey came in wearing a white coat and a silver glasses, looking gentlemanly.

"I see."

Lillian curled her lips in disdain.

Her purpose was to fill Coralie in with the fact that Valerie had become disabled because she tried to save Coralie, and that Skylar was accompanying Valerie every day.

Now that Lillian had spoken, there was no point for her to stay.

After Lillian left, Harvey said, "Miss Chariott, you don't have to worry. You should believe that Skylar will handle this matter well."

At that time, Valerie was supposed to be sent to this hospital. But Skylar was afraid that the Rae family would make trouble for Coralie, so he separated them. He was thinking very thoroughly. "Well, thank you, Dr. Felton."

"Then have a good rest. I'll attend to my work first."

Coralie clasped the white quilt with her fingers. She felt inexplicably uneasy when she thought that Skylar had been accompanying Valerie all the time.

Seeing that Harvey was about to leave, Coralie hurriedly called him again, "Dr. Felton, do you know about Valerie's condition?"

Hearing Coralie's question, Harvey hesitated.

Obviously, he knew of her situation. The doctors in this hospital were more experienced, so a few of them were transferred to the other hospital to treat Valerie's leg. When they returned, they did inform Harvey about the situation there.

However, Harvey was not sure if it was right to tell Coralie.

Coralie noticed his pinched look, so she did not probe any longer, "It's all right, Dr. Felton, I was just asking."

Harvey had a good impression of Coralie, and he also knew that Skylar liked her very much. In order not to create misunderstanding between them, Harvey decided to tell her. "Miss Chariott, the situation with Valerie is complicated. For a while, it's hard for Skylar to get away from her and come to see you. But he still cares about you. He asks me about your condition every night."

"Really? But for so many days, can't he just spend some on me? Even if it's just for a few hours?"

Coralie knew that Valerie's condition was miserable.

However, Coralie wasn't expecting anything much. She only hoped that Skylar would come to see her, care about her, or even make a phone call.

But none of these happened.

"He really doesn't have time." Harvey felt that it was really hard to explain if he didn't tell the truth. "Valerie was calm at first when she found out she lost a leg. But from the next day, she suddenly made a fuss and wanted to commit suicide. No one could stop her. She listened to no one. Only when Skylar was with her could she behave like a normal person."

"How could this be..."

Coralie did not expect Valerie to become like this after this accident.

"Yes, and as long as Skylar leaves, even for a few minutes, she will become anxious and even hurt herself. So now, even when Skylar goes to the bathroom, she'd follow him."

Harvey felt that since he had told her this much, it's better for him to tell her everything so she could understand the situation over there clearly.

"Will she get better?"

"This..."

Coralie's question was tough for Harvey to answer.

"Is it impossible for her to live without Skylar for the rest of her life?"

"It's common for someone who had been through a traumatic experience to be dependent on someone. As for how long, every patient's ability to adapt isn't the same, so the time needed for recovery is different. Some might need a longer time."

Harvey politely expressed his professional opinion.

Coralie understood that it might take many years for Valerie to recover.

After Harvey left the ward, Coralie curled up on the bed, clutching on the sheets. She couldn't stop crying.

Her yearning for Skylar, her guilt for the lost baby, and her uncertainty about the future all made her profoundly uneasy.

Coralie also thought about Valerie's condition. If Valerie couldn't live without Skylar, Valerie had to keep him by her side.

It was a pity that Coralie didn't have such a problem. She could only wait... Wait for Valerie to recover.

Coralie stayed in the hospital for one and a half months. Originally, she could be discharged in two weeks. However, Skylar was worried and made her stay for an extra month.

When Coralie went back to work, she found out that Skylar had hired someone to take over her job temporarily so that she would not be so busy when she returned.

However, for some reason, the more considerate Skylar was for her, the more upset Coralie was.

"Coralie, are you all right? I heard that you..."

The news of Coralie's miscarriage had spread throughout the company.

Moreover, the news of the person who saved her, Valerie, had also been circulating in the company.

Now everyone knew that Valerie had lost one leg trying to save Coralie, and that she was hospitalized.

"Yes."

Coralie nodded. She didn't want to say much about the child since it had become an irrevocable fact.

After all, the child was gone.

"Coralie, don't be sad." Felicia cared about her. She pulled her chair to Coralie's table and said, "If the child is gone, you can have another again. President Holland is so strong, maybe you will have a baby soon."

Felicia was still young, so she didn't know that Coralie couldn't get pregnant within a short time after the miscarriage.

Of course, Felicia didn't know how Skylar had become a constant companion for Valerie, every single day.

Hearing Felicia's words, Coralie lowered her head to look at her flat belly. She then said with self-mockery, "Will we ever have another baby?"

"Yes, you will."

Felicia nodded affirmatively.

When they were talking, Coralie's phone rang. After picking it up, she was informed that it was the front desk calling and someone was looking for her.

Coralie didn't think much. She grabbed her mobile phone and went downstairs.

When she arrived on the first floor, she saw a middle-aged woman standing next to the front desk. She was wearing a dark grey dress, long and elegant. It was obvious that she was a woman of nobility. Seeing Coralie walking towards her, the middle-aged woman came up to her and introduced herself, "Hello, Miss Chariott, my name is Amelia Harington. I am Valerie's mother."
