You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 518

"Oh... If that's so, I..."

Lucille's mind was in a state of chaos. She did not even know what to say or express. She felt a strong contradiction in her heart.

She wanted to explain to Franklin, but at the same time, she felt that she shouldn't. He had already said so, and she could not be too selfdegrading.

While she was still in a dilemma, Franklin pushed her away and strode into the ward.

"No!"

The ward was small. She wanted to block him again, but he had already walked towards the baby crib.

Aurora, who had only been born for a few days, slept quietly in the baby crib. Her chubby little face was cute, her eyes were shut, and her long eyelashes could be seen even more clearly. However, Franklin soon saw the flaw in her face.

It was so obvious and so incompatible with her quiet and lovely little face...

"This...

He was taken aback. He seemed to have suddenly understood why Lucille wanted to stop him and prevent him from coming in.

Lucille stepped forward and stood in between the baby crib and Franklin. She looked at him angrily and said, "I can sign a contract. No matter who sired the child, I won't take a single penny from you, is that alright?"

In fact, she had already indirectly admitted that the child belonged to him.

"I want to do a paternity test."

Franklin stared at Lucille, and he could feel her change. It had only been a short ten months, but she was not the same innocent girl he saw when he came back home in the past anymore.

She seemed to have matured a lot over the past few months.

"No..."

He frowned, "Why not?"

"This... This is not your child." She did not want to deny it, but she had no other choice.

She used to look forward to Franklin admitting the child to be his, and to admit her as well. However, now, she understood that after the things that happened during her pregnancy, they could not go back to the past anymore.

"Even so, I still want to do a paternity test. I only believe in the test!"

Franklin had already guessed that Lucille would say that!

"No, I beg of you! Aurora is still so young. Please don't hurt her... She's not your child. She's really not."

She was her own child.

"Get out of my way. Don't force me."

Franklin seemed to have been possessed by a devil. He wanted to prove that the child was his so that he could bring Lucille and the child back to his side.

"No..."

She was still blocking him, using her entire body to protect the crib.

Franklin glanced at the woman in front of him. He got into a bad mood when he saw how cautious she was towards him when he was around.

Back then, even if he treated her horribly, Lucille would still be looking at him with hope, wanting to please him, as if she would never be angry with him no matter what he did. But now, their relationship had turned out to be like... this.

"You're not budging?" He stared at her and moved forward impulsively. His huge palm suddenly grabbed the back of her head and pushed her towards his lips.

The scent which she had not smelled for a long time felt strange yet familiar. It entered Lucille's mouth, making her mind go blank in an instant.

His kiss had always been gentle, but this time, it was not. The moment he pounced on her, she felt a large amount of air being snatched away from her.

His kiss was full of aggression and invasiveness!

"Oh!"

Lucille was stunned for a few seconds, and then she quickly pushed the man away!

The baby wailed.

The moment she pushed him away, Aurora burst into tears.

She turned around and held Aurora, but she realized that Franklin was holding a few strands of tiny hair!

It turned out that he was taking the opportunity to pluck Aurora's hair.

She still thought...

Lucille was annoyed for a moment. She hated herself for not being able to tell the situation clearly. At such a critical moment, she was still having other thoughts about Franklin and still grasping onto hope from his words.

"Give me back her hair!"

Lucille wanted to snatch the strands of hair back.

Franklin took a big step back, "Take care of my child. When I get the results, I will be back to fetch you two."

Fetch you two. Lucille would have been overjoyed had she heard it back in the past.

However, at this moment, she could not cheer up at all.

He couldn't bother about anything else. With the hair in his hands, he turned around and strode towards the door.

As soon as he reached the door, he collided with Zoel, who was walking in.

When Franklin saw Zoel arriving, his face darkened. He wanted to say something, but he was afraid of losing the hair strands he fought so hard to get, so he hurriedly left.

"Mr. Parker, please stop him!"

Lucille saw Zoel coming in and asked for help with Aurora in her hands.

"Franklin? What's wrong?" Zoel could not react for a moment when he saw him.

"He took Aurora's hair for a paternity test."

Hearing Lucille's words, Zoel immediately turned around to chase after Franklin. He had already left, but he still chased after him.

Lucille also chased out and saw that the outside of the ward was empty.

Not long after, Zoel came back and said, "He drove away. I couldn't catch up with him. What did he tell you?"

"He told me... If Aurora was his, he would bring me and Aurora home."

When Lucille said this, not only was she in a foul mood, she was also depressed.

"What are you going to do about that?" Zoel cared about this.

"I... I want you to take me to the art college. I want to raise Aurora on my own. As for Franklin..." Lucille's eyelashes drooped, and she was a little upset. "I can't be with him anymore. Ever since our divorce, the two of us can't be together again. I am merely reluctant to forget about him."

"You can choose me." Zoel tilted his head and pointed at himself with his index finger.

"Mr. Parker, I've Googled your family's matters, as well as the dean of Three K Art Academy. I am happy that you can help me, but I am not worthy of you. I'm sorry." Lucille was serious.

"What do you mean that you are not worthy of me?" Zoel was angry. "I am the failure in my family. All my relatives think of me as a bad example, so everything in my family has nothing to do with me."

"Mr. Parker, I am a divorced woman with a child... Also, I really don't want to think about marriage anymore for the time being. I only want to work hard and take care of Aurora until she grows up." Lucille was clear about it in her heart. No matter how badly she knew that she and Franklin could not be together, she still couldn't erase him from her heart.

"I will wait for you. I will wait for you until you've thought it through. What do you think?"

Lucille stammered, "Mr. Parker... I..."

Seeing her awkward look, Zoel immediately interrupted her. "Stop! Don't refuse me, okay? I also care about my reputation. If you refuse me too many times, I will be deflated." "Alright, then."

Lucille could only shut up.

Seeing that she agreed and did not refuse him, Zoel immediately said, "By the way, I have contacted a confinement club for you. It took me a lot of effort to cut in line and save you a spot. You can go there immediately after you leave the hospital tomorrow."

"A confinement club? What's that?" Lucille was confused. Ever since that time when she was in pain, she felt that Zoel seemed to know more than her about pregnancy issues.
