You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 49

Coralie Chariott spoke quickly with her head facing the ground.

Only then did she realize that she was still wearing the emerald bracelet given by Grandmother Holland. This was a special bracelet that didn't belong to her.

"And this too."

As Coralie said this, she reached out to remove the bracelet from her hand. This bracelet was small. Although Grandmother Holland had helped her to put it on easily, it was stuck now, as she tried to take it off. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remove it.

"I'm sorry. I'll go to the bathroom and use some soap."

Coralie felt very embarrassed. This emerald bracelet was of great importance to the Holland family. If she wanted a divorce, she had to take it off no matter what.

As soon as she got up, Skylar Holland, who had been silent for a long time, stood up first. He held Coralie's right hand, as she tried to take off the bracelet with one hand, and he pressed her shoulder with his other hand, forcing her to fall onto the tatami.

He laid on top of Coralie and said, "Coralie, do you really want to be separated from me? Am I not worthy of you?"

As he spoke, his eyes were gloomy.

Coralie looked at Skylar in a daze. His expression was obviously angry, but why was there a trace of sadness in it?

It was this expression that stunned her.

Coralie was pressed down by him. Looking at the man in front of her, she felt a whirlwind of emotions. She spoke slowly, "No, Skylar, I don't want to, but what's the use of doing this? Even if we don't end this now, it will all end by September next year. What's the point of keeping me with you for the next few months?"

She didn't want to be just with him these few months.

She couldn't afford to spend these next few months with him either.

"How long do you want?"

He looked at her seriously and intently with dark eyes.

Coralie felt that she had never seen such an expression on Skylar's face. He looked at her all the time in a contemptuous and taunting manner, as if he was on a higher position, but this time, it was different.

"You can't afford what I want."

Skylar couldn't afford to give her what she wanted, and Coralie didn't dare to expect it as well. She knew that a woman who was divorced from a poor background could never ask Skylar for a lifelong relationship. Even if he agreed to this, the Holland family wouldn't agree to it.

For the rich and powerful families, each child was a tool for these families to grow their businesses, strengthen their status and increase their wealth.

"Give me a child."

Coralie wanted to resist him, but both of her hands were suppressed by Skylar, including her legs. Her limbs could not move at all, so she could only accept passively what was happening. Although she wore thick clothes, Coralie could still feel that something was swelling up slowly on her waist and pressing against her.

"Skylar, Skylar!" After a while, Coralie found an opportunity to speak up. She immediately turned her face and shouted, "Stop!"

"Why, you want to refuse?"

He pressed down on her so that she could not move. His voice was overbearing and dissatisfied. It was not the first time for them to be so close to each other, but nothing further ever happened.

"I won't refuse. I understand. You have given me money. Five million dollars is enough for me to sleep with you countless times. However, this is a restaurant. I don't want others to come in and see this scene later!"

Coralie tried to convince Skylar.

After all, this was a restaurant, and the room was not locked. Even if he had just told the waiter not to come in, how certain was he?

"You know that it will be alright." Hearing Coralie's words, Skylar's face became colder. He didn't know how Coralie felt about him deep down in her heart. "The waiters in this restaurant are very disciplined. Since I told them not to come in, they would definitely not come in without permission."

"But, but what if!"

"There's no 'what if'!"

Skylar felt a sense of pain below his abdomen. Recently, he had been repressing his feelings and desires. He wanted Coralie to be with him only when she was really ready.

However, he discovered today, that Coralie didn't know who she had given her virginity to.

"Let's go now. Let's go to the hotel, okay? Not here, not here please!"

Coralie begged for mercy. In any case, she really could not do such a thing in such a public place. "Knock, knock, knock."

As Coralie was begging for mercy, there was a knock on the door outside the sliding door.

"What!"

Skylar was not expecting this and he asked in anger.

Outside the door, the waiter approached them and said respectfully, "Dear guests, our boss said that President Holland is a distinguished guest, and he wanted to deliver these prawns which have freshly arrived."

This was not a bad thing in usual circumstances.

However, it happened at this crucial moment.

"No! Take them away!"

Skylar said angrily. Soon, it was quiet outside.

However, after such a disturbance, the mood was already gone.

Coralie heaved a sigh of relief, but she did not dare to say anything. After Skylar got up, she straightened her clothes and sat back in her seat.

Skylar looked up and saw the marriage certificate, bank cards and other documents in front of Coralie. His face fell. "Put these things that have nothing to do with food aside. I don't want to see them again in the future."

"I'm sorry."

Now, Coralie did not dare to disobey Skylar. She could see that although Skylar had released her, his pants were still bulging, and he still had the desire to make love to her.

She was really afraid that if she said something wrong, Skylar would really pick up from where he left off.

After all, the waiter would not dare to knock on the door again after that incident.

"I know your concerns."

After this moment of embarrassment, Skylar chose to say, "In my house, my mother has no right to speak. Grandmother Holland has the most power in the family. As long as granny likes you, she won't dare to say anything even if she knows about us."

Lillian Ford actually came from a humble background, so she had no power in the Holland family.

The Holland family members respected her, due to Skylar, who was one of the most outstanding members of the family.

"How is granny recently?"

Coralie asked.

"She's better than before."

Skylar could only answer in this manner. He was very clear on his granny's condition. She was actually forcing herself to be strong, in order to maintain the stability within the Holland family.

If Grandmother Holland was no longer around one day, the family would be thrown into chaos.

"In fact, I know that granny was not in good health. When I hugged her last time, I could feel that her body was very weak." Coralie hesitated for a moment and shared her own thoughts. "I think she needs to rest more. It would be best for her to go to the sanatorium in the mountains, instead of letting her worry about the issues in the Holland family here."

Hearing Coralie's words, Skylar couldn't help but look at her. "Are you afraid that once granny passes away, I would not be able to protect you?"
