You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) -
Chapter 50
"Of course not!" Coralie Chariott really did not expect Skylar Holland to think about her this way. "I just like granny a lot. When I first saw her, I felt that she accepted me for who I am, instead of my birth date. My birth date was just the icing on the cake."
When Coralie first met Skylar's grandmother at the hospital, she smiled in a kind manner.
Granny said that she liked her, so she must really liked her sincerely.
Moreover, Grandmother Holland was willing to speak on her behalf when Elsa Holland mentioned Valerie Rae over and over again. This caused Coralie to like Grandmother Holland, and she sincerely hoped that she will live a long life.
"Yes."
Skylar also realized that he had said something wrong, so he didn't say anything further.
After dinner, Skylar parked the car at the gate of Coralie's house.
"Thank you."
In fact, Coralie was very nervous just now. She didn't know if Skylar would really take her to a nearby hotel.
However, after she got out of the car, Skylar also got out. "I'll walk you in."
"You don't have to, it's just a few steps, and the security of this neighborhood is very good. The previous incident won't happen again,"
Coralie explained.
Facing Skylar, she subconsciously tried to refuse his offers and tried to distance herself from him. Perhaps, she was afraid that if they were too close to each other, it would be difficult for them when they had to separate in the future.
Skylar didn't think this way. He stepped forward and held Coralie's hand. He said naturally, "Is it wrong to walk my own wife home?"
His words caused Coralie to blush instantly.
Fortunately, it was dark at night, and no one could see this.
Skylar walked with her until the lobby downstairs. Then, he stood still and said, "Coralie, do you want to move in with me?"
"Huh?"
"My grandmother wants to move into one of the villas in Golden Town. If she replaces out that we don't live together, it may cause suspicion," Skylar said naturally.
"Oh, so that's what it is. Then I understand."
After listening to Skylar's explanation, Coralie answered as if she was relieved.
There were countless guesses in her mind when Skylar proposed this.
Among them, the most ridiculous thought Coralie had was whether Skylar had proposed this because he wanted to see her every day. "Well, you don't have to take anything with you. I'll ask the servants to get everything ready for you."
There were no full-time servants in Skylar's house, but there were part-time servants.
"Okay, thank you."
After Coralie thanked him, she turned and went into the corridor. She didn't dare to look back and went to the elevator.
In the quiet elevator, she hugged her chest, but she could still feel her heart pounding.
When Coralie returned home, she told Hera Jean and Wayne Chariott that she would move to Skylar's house after work the next day.
When she arrived at Skylar's house, the door was unlocked.
"Skylar?"
Coralie pushed the door open carefully and walked in. The house had just been cleaned. There was a pair of leather shoes at the door, indicating that Skylar was at home. "I'm coming."
After Coralie put down her bag and looked around the kitchen and the living room, Skylar came down from the second floor.
He was wearing a grey home outfit, and his hair was not styled.
"You didn't go to work today?"
Skylar's hair would usually be styled if he went to work.
"I'm on vacation."
"How reckless."
Facing his honesty, Coralie couldn't help but tease him.
"By the way, I left the access card at your house the last time. If it's convenient, can you give me another one?"
This was the first thing Coralie thought of when she saw him, because as far as she knew, Skylar often worked overtime. She didn't want to wait outside every day.
"Come here."
Skylar opened the door and called her. He then proceeded to press some buttons on the security system.
"What's going on?"
Coralie was puzzled.
Skylar took Coralie's hand naturally. He placed her right index finger on the fingerprint scanner and pressed it down.
As she leaned down, his magnetic voice could be heard from above. "I'm afraid that granny will be suspicious. You can use your fingerprints in the future."
Coralie thought that she only needed to press for a while. She was about to remove her hand, but he held her hand still and continued, "Wait a minute. The system needs to identify the fingerprints in all directions. It's relatively slow."
"Oh."
Skylar lowered his head slightly, and he could see that Coralie's face was as red as a tomato. Perhaps she was too shy. Even her fingers were a little hot.
"You are blushing,"
He teased.
"I... I'm sorry..."
Coralie didn't know what to say at this time. Skylar was always like this, and he could easily cause her to lose her mind.
It was clear that she had passed the age where she would blush easily and get nervous. However, in front of him, this didn't matter.
"Beep."
Along with the sound from the system, the verification process was completed.
Coralie couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. She escaped quickly from Skylar and went back into the house swiftly to distance herself from him.
Just like that, her heart was beating so fast that its rhythm seemed irregular.
"I'm going to cook."
Coralie looked for something to do so that she could have some space to herself. Then, she would not have to face Skylar. This way, she didn't have to be embarrassed. Otherwise, she would think too much.
As the woman changed her slippers and tried to flee to the kitchen after hanging her coat on the hanger, Skylar couldn't help but say behind her back, "I told you, I didn't marry you to do housework..."
"It's to bring the family good luck. I know." Coralie finished the second half of the sentence for him, but she still ran into the kitchen. "Even so, we have to eat."
"Wait a minute. The hotel nearby will send over the dishes. I've already booked them."
This sentence led to her dismissing her idea of cooking.
"Have you always been like this?"
Coralie knew that Skylar never cooked. She had come to Skylar's house twice before, and the refrigerator was as clean as a brand new refrigerator. It seemed as if it had never been used before. She guessed that he didn't cook.
"I usually work overtime and have my meals in the company."
To be precise, this house was used solely for sleeping.
In Skylar's opinion, only when Coralie was here did the house feel like a home.
Soon, the high-class takeaway ordered by Skylar arrived.
This was only the beginning of Coralie's embarrassing moments.
In the evening, Coralie went to the guest room, feeling rather self-conscious, with her pajamas. However, she found that there were no covers on the bed in the guest room. There was not even a blanket there. The bathroom in the guest room didn't have any toiletries either...
This reminded her of what Skylar said yesterday. He said that he would prepare things for her so that she didn't have to take anything with her.
Coralie had to put the pajamas on the bed in the guest room and went to Skylar's study to ask, "Where are the bed covers for the guest room? I'll get them myself."
