Coralie looked up at the familiar man standing at the door who was walking towards her. It was just like a reenactment of her dreams "Sky..."

She opened her mouth, but before she could finish saying the man's name, Skylar had already walked up to her. He opened his arms and embraced Coralie tightly.

The man's embrace was strong and powerful, as if he wanted to integrate her into his body.

Once again, Coralie was held in his familiar embrace, but she was at a loss of how to react.

"I knew it. I knew you wouldn't leave."

Skylar whispered in Coralie's ear. His voice was deep but gentle.

However, the hug only lasted for a few seconds. Soon, Skylar turned around and looked at the nurse. He questioned, "Tell me, who asked you to do this?"

The nurse had never expected that Skylar would appear at this time.

"I don't know, I don't know!"

The nurse shook her head desperately.

She knew Skylar's status in A city. Now that Skylar knew that she had tried to kill his child, he would definitely not let her off the hook.

"You don't know?"

Skylar raised his eyebrows.

"Is it that Jakeman woman?" Coralie said on the side. She turned her head to Skylar. "Yesterday, I was here when you came. She told me that you're both engaged and are going to get married soon. She told me not to disturb you."

Although there was no evidence, Coralie had to protect Hendric. Now that such a thing had happened, Coralie could only depend on Skylar to protect him.

Hendric had gotten this disease at such a young age. Coralie couldn't let him get hurt again.

"Jakeman?" The nurse looked at them in confusion and shook her head. "It was a man. When I went out for lunch today, a man stopped me and asked me to do this. He wore a hat and a mask, so I couldn't see his face."

"A man?"

"No one would dirty their own hands for this kind of thing."

Skylar thought that even if the culprit was a man, he could not eliminate Sabella as a suspect.

At the moment, the police arrived.

After they took the nurse away, the people in the ward also dispersed.

Skylar walked to Hendric's bedside and picked him up. Hendric was very light, and in his wide and loose clothes, he looked emaciated, without an inch of baby fat.

"Our son?"

Skylar turned his face to Coralie.

"Yeah..." Coralie was a little embarrassed. She stood there like a child who had made a mistake and explained to Skylar, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you. At that time, they were going to get me and force me to get rid of him, but I..."

"I know. You don't have to explain."

Skylar held Hendric in one hand and tried to hold Coralie with the other hand, but Coralie took a step back and avoided him.

"Please, please protect Hendric, okay? He really is your son. Don't let anyone hurt him."

Coralie didn't know if she was qualified to be so intimate with Skylar now, but she hoped that Skylar could protect Hendric by predicating on his blood relation with Skylar.

"I will protect him, and you too."

Skylar didn't know why Coralie avoided him.

He looked at the woman in front of him. Skylar hadn't seen her for more than two years. Although Coralie didn't change much, she looked thinner. The dark circles under her eyes were deep and it was obvious that she hadn't rested well.

"You and Sabella..."

Coralie cast a look of confirmation.

She divorced Howard because of Alison Herman's interference. In Coralie's eyes, no matter what kind of relationship she and Skylar used to have, as long as Skylar was now someone else's husband, she could never stay with him, whatever her identity might be.

Hearing the woman's question, Skylar's thin lips curled up slightly. He finally knew why Coralie was avoiding him.

"Sabella's father and I are cooperating on a project, so her father asked her to deal with me."

"But, but I heard her tell you in the garage last time, that you were going home... and cooking..."

Coralie still stood against the wall.

She wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Did you go to Skyton Corporation?"

Skylar looked at the woman standing a distance away; she was a little vigilant.

"Answer me first," Coralie said.

"Well, I did ask her to go home and cook for me, but it's just because we're friends. Now that you're back, she won't do it again. There will be no other woman around me except you." Skylar smiled. In the past few years, he had never been in such a good mood as he was now.

"Really?"

"As true as it can be. I swear on myself."

Skylar answered Coralie genially.

Before Coralie could answer, Hendric, who was in his arms, had stretched out his little arm and reached his tiny hand to Skylar's face. He said in a childish voice, "Dad." "Look, you deserve to be my son. You know me." Skylar walked over and pulled Coralie away from the wall and said, "Let's go."

"Where are we going?" Coralie asked.

"To deal with the transfer procedure. You don't want our son to stay here, do you?"

"Oh, right."

Coralie nodded quickly. Before she could react, Skylar had already accepted her and the existence of Hendric.

They transferred Hendric to the hospital Harvey was working in.

After they completed the process, Skylar took Coralie and Hendric to have dinner outside.

In the restaurant, Hendric sat on the baby chair and looked at Skylar with his big eyes blinking. He said, "Hendric likes Dad."

"I like Hendric too."

Skylar looked at his son as he raised his hand to pat his head.

"Hendric likes chocolate. Give him a cup of hot chocolate," Coralie said.

"Okay."

Skylar nodded.

He ordered hot chocolate for Hendric while Coralie ordered egg soup for him.

During the meal, Skylar even took the initiative to feed Hendric. When the three of them sat together, they seemed to be a harmonious family.

When Hendric was eating, he suddenly began to have a nosebleed. The blood flowed down his nose until it dripped on his clothes. Coralie noticed it and she quickly took a tissue to wipe Hendric's nose. "What's wrong? Is everything fine?"

Skylar had only met Hendric for the first time, so he didn't know what symptoms leukemia would have.

"It's okay, it happens from time to time."

Coralie assured Skylar. In fact, she knew what kind of symptoms Hendric would encounter these days, the serious ones and the less serious ones.

After wiping the blood, Hendric looked up at Skylar and said, "Dad, Hendric no feel bad."

Seeing that Hendric was so well behaved, Skylar took Hendric's hand and said seriously, "Dad will definitely cure you."

When Coralie and Skylar were both drawing closer to Hendric, a man and a woman pushed the door open and entered the hall.

Although Coralie and Skylar were focusing on Hendric, the couple who entered the door saw them at a glance.

"Skylar?"

The person who came was Valerie Rae. She first saw Skylar, and then she caught sight of Hendric. Finally, when her eyes fell on Coralie, her gaze became especially complicated. "Coralie? She's still alive?"
