"Hello, Madam Harington."

When Amelia introduced herself, Coralie had once understood the purpose of her visit.

However, she kept quiet as she wanted to hear what Amelia would say first.

"Miss Chariott, you were in the hospital for a while. I wonder if anyone told you about Valerie's condition."

Amelia asked her.

The voice was unhurried. It was obvious that she was well taught.

"Yes... I know a little about it."

Coralie had only heard Harvey mentioned it once, but she didn't know the specific situation very well.

When Coralie said this, there was no change in her expression. Amelia said, "I don't think you know much about Valerie's situation. I wonder when will you be free. I'm hoping you could visit Valerie."

"Me?"

"Miss Chariott, don't get me wrong. I just want you to take a look at her from a distance, I'm also worried that Valerie can't take it when she sees you."

When Amelia spoke, she stared at Coralie without any emotion.

But the more Amelia behaved like this, the more Coralie felt that Amelia was not any ordinary person.

She was a tigress, hiding her fangs.

However, since Amelia had personally asked Coralie for it, Coralie could not refuse. Moreover, she also wanted to see what Valerie had become.

How bad was her condition that Skylar couldn't even step away from her?

"Okay, can you wait for me? I get off work at 5:30 p.m."

"Sure, then I'll wait for you to get off work, Miss Chariott."

After saying that, Amelia turned around and left.

Coralie stood there and stared at Amelia's retreating back. There was an unspeakable feeling in her heart.

Amelia was calm and composed, which showed her determination to achieve her goal.

In the evening, it was time to get off work.

Coralie packed her things and went downstairs. Amelia stood there waiting for her.

"Madam Harington."

Coralie hurried to greet Amelia when she saw her.

Amelia came in a car with a driver. She took Coralie to the hospital where Valerie was in. Coralie could see that this hospital was very far away from Harvey's hospital, at least dozens of kilometers away. She guessed that this was also Skylar's deliberate arrangement.

"Miss Chariott, I think you've also realized how far your hospital is from Valerie's."

"Yes."

Coralie nodded.

"This is Skylar's arrangement, but we also agreed to it. At first, we didn't know what kind of person you were, we were worried that you would disturb Valerie. But after meeting you, it seems that we were thinking too much. Miss Chariott, you are obviously a reasonable person. A reasonable person who would not do anything rash."

Amelia remarked. She was sitting in the back seat and next to Coralie.

Amelia weighed her every words, and Coralie could hear that there was another implicit meaning to her words.

When they arrived at the hospital, Amelia led Coralie to the fifth floor.

The fifth floor was very quiet. Amelia said, "We've booked the whole floor to treat Valerie's illness. Valerie is very vulnerable now, she can't be agitated. Miss Chariott, please be aware of it." "Okay."

Coralie nodded.

Amelia took her to the innermost ward on the fifth floor. There was a bodyguard guarding at the door of the ward.

There was a long strip of glass on the door of the ward. Coralie peered through the glass. There was a wide bed, sofa, tables, and all kinds of things in the large ward. It was like a small apartment.

At this time, Skylar was sitting on the sofa dealing with his tablet computer, looking as if he was working. Valerie was sitting next to him, holding onto his arm and leaning her head on his shoulder. She stared at the tablet in Skylar's hand with a sweet look on her face.

She was wearing a pair of pants for hospital patients. The lower half on the left side of the pants was laying flat on the sofa. It was obvious that there was nothing inside.

Seeing this scene, Coralie's heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand.

They looked so sweet, and it seemed that Skylar did not refuse nor resist. He allowed Valerie to lean on him and snuggle up in his arms.

Perhaps sensing Coralie's gaze, Skylar tilted his head slightly and saw Coralie's figure on the glass of the door.

When Coralie saw Skylar looking at her, she quickly hid by the wall.

However, she couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in her heart.

She grabbed her heart which was aching, but dare not make a sound.

Coralie looked at Amelia standing beside her. She thought Amelia would say something about Skylar and Valerie, but she didn't.

She just stood there quietly and said nothing.

Coralie was also at a loss for a moment.

At this moment, the door to the ward opened. Coralie looked back and saw Skylar opening the door.

When she got closer, she could see that Skylar's face was a jumble of fatigue and exhaustion. His dark circles were heavy, and he looked like he hadn't shaved in a few days. He appeared to have gone through a lot.

"Skylar."

Coralie shouted his name. She stretched out her hands and wanted to hug him, but she retreated her hands midair.

"Why are you here?"

Skylar looked at Coralie with mixed emotions. At the same time, he saw Amelia behind Coralie. He knew that she must be the one who brought her here.

"Skylar, I am the one who invited Miss Chariott here. I want to show her how hurt our Valerie has been, and all because of her."

Amelia had always exuded a sophisticated aura when she spoke, but after Skylar came out, her tone suddenly changed and became a little agitated.

"It's not her fault."

"Not her fault? Then who's fault is it? Valerie's appearance, personality, and family background are all first-class. She just graduated from abroad and started working in Skyton Corporation. In less than two months, she lost one of her legs. Her life has just begun. How can she walk the path of life in the future?"

Amelia suddenly became agitated. Although she was not hysterical, she could not control her emotions. "Sorry, I failed to protect them."

In fact, what Skylar wanted to say was that he failed to protect Coralie well. If it was him beside Coralie on that day, he certainly would not impose Coralie's safety on Valerie.

"Skylar, I'm not trying to pick on you. But now, you know how Valerie's condition is..."

After listening to Amelia's words, Coralie remembered that the reason why Skylar couldn't leave her alone before was that she would hurt herself as soon as he left. However, Skylar was out of the ward for a long time now, but Valerie was still fine in the ward.

This aroused suspicions in Coralie. Was Harvey lying to her?

"Boohoo!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as Coralie was suspecting anything amiss, Valerie's sobbing suddenly came from the ward, accompanied by a terrifying noises. It was as if someone was banging their head against the wall. "Valerie!" As soon as Skylar heard the sound, he rushed into the ward instantly. Then he hugged Valerie and comforted her, "I'm here, I'm here."
