You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 300

The next day, Coralie got up early. She first copied the recording into her mobile phone and then headed to Togsom Accounting Firm to report herself for work. As soon as she arrived at Togsom Accounting Firm, Lisa came out to welcome her.

Coralie was now in her thirties, but her aura had become even refined. She was no longer in plain dresses and white clothes as before but instead looked prettier now.

"Woah, woah woah, I'm getting uglier with age while you're more beautiful as you grow older."

When Lisa saw Coralie, she teased her.

"No, Lisa, it's you who's literally living against the ageing process."

Coralie also gave her a compliment.

Although a few years had passed, Coralie's work hadn't changed. She was in Lisa's group now.

"Our group is on a business trip tomorrow. You just came back so you can just be on standby in the company and help me look for what I need."

As soon as Coralie came, Lisa spoke first.

"Okay."

Coralie had no objection to the fact that she would not be going on a business trip. After all, she had to take care of Hendric. If she went on a business trip and Wayne came back late at night because of his social engagements, she could not rest assured for Hera to take care of Hendric by herself.

After welcoming her, Lisa quickly packed up her things and took a taxi to the airport.

Coralie cleaned and tidied her desk. She was alone in the office, so she called Xenia and asked for Valerie's phone number.

Coralie was not in a hurry. She planned to call Valerie in the afternoon.

When it was about four o'clock in the afternoon and near the time to get off work, Coralie called Valerie.

In the beginning, Valerie didn't pick up the phone when she called her the first time. However, on her second attempt, Valerie picked up the phone.

"Hello."

Valerie answered the phone in a soft and polite voice, her usual style.

"Hello, Valerie. I'm Coralie."

"Coralie?"

After Coralie introduced herself, Valerie was stunned at first. After all, she had never thought that Coralie would take the initiative to call her.

"Yes, do you have time later? Let's meet up and have a cup of coffee. We haven't seen each other for a few years. I want to ask you something."

The current Coralie was different from before. Besides, she had the evidence given by Yohan, so she was full of confidence.

"Sure."

To Coralie's surprise, Valerie agreed without thinking.

However, Coralie's thoughts were different from Valerie's. Valerie thought that Coralie wanted to inquire about what had happened that day, so she came up with an excuse to mislead Coralie.

After the two of them set the time and place, Coralie went there slightly earlier.

However, by the time she arrived at the cafe, Valerie was already there.

When Coralie entered the cafe, she saw Valerie at a glance. It was a spectacle...

This was because Valerie came in a wheelchair.

"Miss Chariott, I'm really sorry. There have been some problems with my prosthesis so I sent it to be repaired. However, you asked me out so I would have to come, right? You won't mind seeing me like this, will you?"

When Valerie saw Coralie coming over, she snatched the opportunity to speak first.

Coralie couldn't refute her words at all but she was not angry. She just sat down and smiled. "Well, look at your legs. It's all because of me."

Coralie knew what Valerie's purpose was, so she waltzed with her.

"Don't say that. I was only worried that Skylar would get sad if you got hurt."

Valerie picked up the coffee cup in front of her and took a sip, then smiled faintly.

They were of the same age. If Coralie's face was better than women of the same age, then Valerie was literally ageless.

Valerie's face looked smooth and healthy, but it was a little fake. It seemed that she had just had a botox injection and it had not been completely absorbed yet.

"That was such a noble sacrifice."

Coralie went along with what Valerie said.

"By the way, why did you invite me here this time?" Valerie finally asked.

"Uhm..." Coralie opened her mouth.

"Could it be the phone call last time? Miss Chariott, please don't blame Skylar..."

Without waiting for Coralie to speak, Valerie took the lead again.

Coralie didn't mean to discuss this, but when she heard Valerie's words, she was a little puzzled. She heard it clearly across the phone. At that time, the situation in the room had evidently shown that it was Valerie who came to his room first and was later driven away by Skylar.

"What? Why did Valerie suddenly change the topic? What is she going to do?"

Coralie didn't say anything and just wanted to see what lies Valerie was going to spin.

"Miss Chariott, Skylar... he... he can't move his lower body now. Auntie Ford asked me to test if Skylar still retained his bodily functions. In fact, I don't want to, but Auntie Ford insisted... I..." "He can't move his lower body?"

Hearing this, Coralie's expression didn't change much and she was even a little relieved.

Because of this, she could be certain that Skylar had his reasons for driving her away instead of bearing no feelings for her anymore.

In fact, even Coralie did not know what she would do in the future if Skylar had really discarded his feelings for her.

How was she going to hide her love without it leaking out?

"Yes," Valerie said. She looked at Coralie's emotionless face and felt even more irritated. She continued, "And on that day, I tried, and I even used... uhm... on Skylar, but he had no reaction at all, so he was infuriated. However, I don't blame him. I love him and I can accept him no matter what happens."

Valerie deliberately said it in an ambiguous way. She mainly wanted to cause Coralie's misunderstanding. Furthermore, she wanted to make Coralie believe that Skylar had erectile dysfunction.

She believed that women at this age were eager about s*x. If Coralie knew that Skylar had erectile dysfunction, she might reconsider it.

However, Coralie sat back and watched Valerie put on a show. At this time, the waiter served her coffee.

She took a sip of coffee and watched Valerie finish her performance. She said calmly, "Tell me his address. I'm going to see him."

"Miss Chariott, you..."

Valerie didn't expect that Coralie was here to ask for this!

"Give it to me," Coralie said.

"No, Auntie Ford said that I cannot give it to anyone. Even Skylar said that too," Valerie said firmly. After that, she added, "Besides, to Skylar, you are an outsider now."

"Miss Rae, I advise you to think about it again," Coralie suggested.

"I'm sorry, I really can't. To tell you the truth, I know Skylar likes you, but it's also true that he doesn't want me to tell anyone."

How could Valerie tell Coralie the address to Skylar's rehabilitation centre?

How could she let them meet?

Coralie did not say much. She took out her phone from her bag, found the recording, and played it.

"You must help me."

"Of course I can help you, but..."

When the recording had just finished playing the first sentence, Valerie recognized her own voice while the other voice was Leonardo's...

"Why do you have this?!"

Valerie was taken aback for a second and stood up agitatedly. She was so animated that she hit the coffee cup in front of her. It toppled over and spilled on the table.

The aroma of coffee filled the air within a second.
