You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 141

"Well, that sounds good."

Coralie Chariott felt relieved that Andrew Jordan was finally taking up the responsibility as a breadwinner for the family.

"But recently, he's been getting closer to another female streamer. Since players could team up in games, he's been teaming up with that female streamer a lot lately." "Didn't you ask him about it?"

"I did. He said that it was arranged by the group. The female streamer is very popular, so she was tasked with helping him in getting more viewers. He often said that she looked down on him because she would earn tens of thousands of dollars every month. He told me that many rich young men were trying to chase after her, and there was no way that she'll fancy him."

Josephine Lowell was still full of worry as she spoke.

However, Coralie seemed to have sensed the problem in it, "Have you ever asked him what would he do if the female streamer really took fancy at him?"

"I..."

In fact, there was no need for Josephine to ask. The answer was self-evident.

The two fell into silence.

It was at night, and Josephine's child was walking in front of Coralie and Josephine as they talked. It appeared to be safer that way.

Josephine looked at her child and said, "I think he will restrain himself for the sake of our child."

Coralie would have agreed that men could restrain themselves in the past, but not anymore.

After having experienced Howard's betrayal and seeing how Andrew had behaved, Coralie really didn't think that Andrew could control himself.

Moreover, from Coralie's point of view, all signs showed that it was a matter of time that Andrew would have an affair.

She advised her, "Josephine, I'm not trying to destroy your marriage just because mine has failed, but I think that you should be more careful. Even if it's not for yourself, but your child is going to kindergarten next year. You'll need a lot of money."

"Yes, I know."

Josephine knew Andrew well after so many years with him. His underlying character had been exposed lately, but Josephine was still reluctant to part with him. She was still willing to bet her life on him. She was convinced that he was just messing around and that he would still stay with her until the end.

"Mommy, I'm feeling a little sleepy."

Josephine's son walked back to her side after playing for a while. He extended his arms to ask for a hug.

"Okay, let's go home to sleep."

Josephine bent down and picked up her son. Her face was brimming with motherly love.

Coralie watched from the side. Thinking of her lost child, she felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.

"Okay, Mommy."

Josephine's son reached out and hugged Josephine's neck.

"Coralie, we're heading back now," After saying goodbye to Coralie, she told her son to do the same too, "Say goodbye to Auntie."

"Goodbye, Auntie!"

Josephine's son waved at Coralie.

"Bye-bye, good night."

After that, Coralie went home alone.

Back at Skylar's villa, although Skylar and Valerie both slept in the same room, Skylar had been sleeping on the sofa in the master bedroom all this while.

He realized that he could not bring himself to sleep in the same bed as Valerie.

Valerie Rae had wandered in front of him in her sexy lingerie a lot of times, but Skylar Holland did not respond at all.

Valerie had a good figure and exceptional looks.

However, Skylar didn't have any feelings for her.

"Skylar, I'm going to sleep now. Are... are you really going to sleep on the sofa in the future? We're going to get engaged..."

After all, engagement and marriage were almost the same. The only difference was the marriage certificate.

"Go to sleep. Good night."

Skylar turned his body over to face the sofa.

"Good night."

Valerie then sat on the bed in her sexy lingerie and gripped her fingers tightly on the quilt.

She had never felt as frustrated as this before.

Especially when she saw Skylar's expression when he looked at Coralie's earlier today. She knew that her position in his heart was nowhere near Coralie's. Therefore, she had to marry Skylar as soon as possible.

Lying on the sofa, Skylar was also weighed down with worries. He lay down for a while and finally got up when he heard Valerie's steady breathing behind him,. He then made his way to the study. He dialed Harvey's number.

"Hello, Skylar, what's up?"

Harvey Felton was working the night shift, so he wasn't asleep yet.

"Could you please get the best psychologist for me? I want to bring Valerie for treatment."

"To treat her..." Harvey felt that Skylar had thrown an unsolvable question to him, "Skylar, her illness is complicated. It's also unpredictable. I have consulted a few experts, and all of them said that her condition was rare."

"Can't it be cured?"

"It's not impossible. She's been taking her medication and we have also ran different tests on her. The results showed that she was fine, but she suddenly attempted suicide that time.. It's a little..." Harvey wanted to say something but he held back on a second thought. He felt that as a doctor, what he was going to say next didn't seem to be appropriate.

"What's wrong?"

"Her illness may have been cured a long time ago. She might be using this method to control you."

Based on Harvey's understanding of Valerie, he could sense that it was very likely for her to do such a thing.

"Could she fake it to this extent?"

A frown appeared on Skylar's face as he listened to Harvey's explanation.

"Not necessarily. I just took a guess. You see, I am not a psychologist," Harvey immediately added, "Maybe she really is ill. After all, she is a young lady. She even dared to hurt herself using such extreme means. It would have been difficult to do it if she was totally normal."

Although Harvey had divulged his suspicions, he quickly denied his theory after a while.

Skylar then hung up the phone.

He sat on the chair and looked at the empty table opposite him. The scene of Coralie sitting there started playing again in his mind. At that time, she pretended to be studying but she was actually peeking at him.

He couldn't help but smile.

When she heard that the phone call had ended, Valerie tiptoed and left.

However, because she was wearing a hard prosthesis, it would let out a soft noise when she touched the ground. Just now, Skylar didn't notice it because he was on the phone. However, the call had ended. Hence, he clearly heard Valerie making her way back to the master bedroom.

He frowned, and Harvey's words from earlier came to his mind again.

When he returned to the room and saw that Valerie was lying on the bed, Skylar did not say anything.

However, just as he about to lay down on the sofa, Valerie suddenly spoke, "I'm sorry, Skylar, I overheard you talking on the phone."

She realized that the sound coming from her prosthesis was a little too loud. Since she was not sure if Skylar had heard it, she decided to come clean and apologize first.

She didn't want to arouse any suspicions from Skylar.

"It's okay, it's nothing much anyway. I was just asking Harvey about your condition."

Seeing that Valerie did not hide the fact that she had eavesdropped, Skylar's doubts seemed to dissipate gradually. He was more convinced that Valerie was really afflicted with psychological problems.
