You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 317

"Hospitalized? I can't be hospitalized!"

When Jamie heard from Harvey that she was going to be hospitalized, she was so frightened that she almost jumped out of bed.

Just as she moved, Harvey stopped her immediately by holding her down. "Your leg is seriously injured. If you don't get treatment in time, you won't be able to do any vigorous exercise in the future." "But if I get hospitalized, won't my mother come looking for me? Jumping off the building would be in vain then."

"You jumped off a building?"

Having heard that she jumped off a building, Wayne was startled.

"Yeah, I jumped off from my room on the second floor, and I even used the mattress to block the door. At that time, four or five servants couldn't even open the door when they were outside." Jamie was talking about it in high spirits, as if she was trying to show off a glorious deed she'd done.

"Jamie, I'll tell your mother about it. She'll agree to it when my work gets better."

Wayne said to her.

"How is your team now?"

Jamie was grounded by her parents ever since she started dating Wayne, so she didn't know much about what was happening on Wayne's side.

When Wayne mentioned his work, Jamie realized that she'd never really cared about his work.

"I'm working in the bank......"

Wayne's tone of voice softened as he talked about his job.

Actually, Wayne and Jamie had a good friend who was a famous e-sports gamer when they were in university. He started a team after graduating from university as he was making a lot of money from it. At that time, that friend had invited Wayne to be an assistant coach of the team.

However, when Coralie went missing during that time period, he told Hera that he was going to be an assistant coach in a game club, which made Hera really upset. Thus, he decided to give up on his own interests and work in a bank, which his mother preferred for him.

"What? Didn't you say that you wanted to work in Melvin's team? Why didn't you go?"

When Jamie heard that, she would have jumped out of the bed and beat Wayne up if it wasn't because her leg was injured.

"......"

"What's so good about working in the bank? Wayne, do you remember when you were in university, your tactical analysis was always so accurate? This is something that others don't have! How could you give up just like that!"

"My family was in a difficult situation at that time and I needed a stable job."

As Jamie was getting infuriated, Wayne had to tell the truth.

His reason stunned Coralie. When Wayne graduated, she was still living in a small town in the North with Hendric. She dared not contact her family because she was afraid of being discovered by Yohan. Wayne had been interested in computer games ever since he was a child, and Coralie was clear about that.

For the sake of the Chariott family and to provide a stable source of income for the family, Wayne gave up on his hobby and chose a job that would provide more stability and please his mother. "Wayne, it's my fault that I didn't think much about you back then."

Coralie felt very ashamed, but it was impossible for her to ask him to resign his job now to pursue his dreams.

As a sister, she would support her brother no matter what he would pursue. However, for Queenie, she would never allow her son-in-law to be an assistant coach of a gaming club. "Even so, you can't give up on your dream."

Jamie knew what Wayne said was reasonable, but it was not enough for her to accept that Wayne did not continue to work on his dreams.

"Let's let them talk in private."

Skylar noticed that the conversation between Wayne and Jamie was quite intense, and they couldn't involve themselves in their conversation, so he asked Coralie to leave with him.

"Skylar, don't leave. When Mom comes later, she will definitely take me away."

When Jamie heard that Skylar was about to leave, she begged him to stay.

After all, she left by jumping out of her window. Queenie was probably still furious at home. When Queenie replaces out about what really happened, she might not just ground her at home, but she might send her abroad instead.

"She won't be able to replace you here for a short while, and Harvey will keep it a secret for you too." Skylar said.

"Can't replace me for a while? You've underestimated my Mom's capabilities. She's usually gentle and soft, but she's actually very cunning and super intelligent!"

Jamie felt that these people were all close to her, so she just said what she was thinking.

Although Jamie was young, she was very smart and she could see things clearly.

For instance, her mother Queenie, was definitely not a person to be trifled with. On the contrary, Elsa, who liked messing around, acted without thinking.

"In that case, she would replace you no matter where you hide. You'd better think about how to explain it to her."

Skylar also understood Queenie's character.

If Queenie found her here while she was mad, seeing Skylar with her, she would definitely make a scene again. It was better for him to leave as soon as possible. After saying that, he brought Coralie away.

Jamie pulled Wayne aside to persuade him, hoping that Wayne could resign from his job and go to Melvin's club as an assistant coach; she even contacted Melvin for him.

It wasn't an easy decision for Wayne. Aside from his family background, there was another reason that was more important. Compared with being an assistant coach in a club, it was easier for Queenie to accept him if he worked in the bank.

However, he didn't tell Jamie about that.

Wayne stayed with Jamie from 8 p.m. to 12 p.m., and he was preparing to leave for home at midnight.

As soon as he took his bag and went to the door, he saw a few people coming in his direction in a hurry.

The lights in the corridor of the hospital would never be turned off at night. He could already see that it was Queenie, and the one next to her seemed to be a maid, before they were even close to him. Although Wayne had never seen Queenie in person before, he had seen her in Jamie's social media posts.

"Wayne Chariott! Where is my daughter?"

Queenie had never seen Wayne before either, but she had seen him in Jamie's social media posts as well.

The moment she saw Wayne, she knew that Jamie would be there too, thus she strode over to interrogate him.

Judging from the worn-out look on Queenie's face, he knew that she must've looked for her everywhere and was going crazy over it.

"Aunt Queenie."

"Don't call me aunt. Where is my daughter?"

"She..."

"Where is she?"

Queenie had always doted on her daughter. She wasn't worried because Jamie disappeared, but because she knew that she had jumped down from the second floor and she was worried about her injury. Now that she saw Wayne in the hospital, it concluded the thought of hers that Jamie was really injured.

"Mom! I'm in here!"

Jamie heard Queenie's voice from inside the ward.

She shouted as soon as she heard Queenie questioning Wayne.

"Come with me!"

Queenie was afraid that Wayne would take the opportunity to run away, so she urged him to come with her, and her tone was not very pleasant.

Wayne followed Queenie to Jamie's ward.

As soon as she went in, she saw Jamie's leg hanging with a splint as a support, and she couldn't move at all. The tears in her eyes rolled down her cheeks as it hurt to see her own daughter like this.

She walked towards Jamie, looked at her leg and said, "Jamie, if you want to go out, just tell me. Why did you have to do it in such an extreme way? You are my only daughter. What if something happens to you?"

Queenie gave birth to Jamie when she was in her thirties. She was a precious child to her.

"Mom." Seeing her mother like that, she reached out her arms as a gesture to ask for a hug, and said, "Mom, I missed you."

Jamie knew her mother best. Listening to the affectionate expressions from her daughter as she expressed how much she loved and missed her, her mother would have almost forgiven her.
