You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) -
Chapter 520
"Mr. Moore, we don't have anything to do with each other anymore. I don't think you have to worry about my affairs, isn't that right?"
Lucille was not good at lying, and she was unable to blame this on anyone else.
"It doesn't matter? If you don't tell me who that man is, do you think I will just let this slide? You've cuckolded me, and you think we can forget about this?"
"Mr. Moore, I'm the one who betrayed you. If you have any dissatisfaction... I... You can sue me in court."
She had nothing. She had nothing left that she could give Franklin.
"Sue you? You're just a woman. What's the pleasure of that? Tell me who the man is. This is a matter of a man's dignity. It has nothing to do with you!" He growled.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Moore. I can't tell you."
That was because there was no man at all.
However, Franklin could not stop thinking about it.
His chest was filled with anger and resentment that he had to vent out.
"You won't tell me? Do you think I won't replace out if you don't tell me?" He snorted coldly on the other side of the phone, "It's Zoel, isn't it? I should have f*cking known it was him!"
"No..."
She had owed Zoel too much. She could not continue to get him involved in this mess any longer.
"It's not him? If it's not him, why is he doing so much for you, and why is he so kind to you? Do you think I would believe it when he helped you put on your seatbelt? Don't you have hands yourself? Don't you know how to wear a seatbelt by yourself?"
Facing Franklin's bombard of questions, Lucille's words were stuck in her throat.
She realized that she really hated the feeling of being misunderstood by him, but what could she do about it?
The moment she tried to kill herself and was rescued, she had planned to forget about him.
"Mr. Moore, you are invading my privacy. I know that you are always the one to cuckold others, and no one's ever been the one to do that to you... But things have already escalated to this point. If you can't accept it, I can't do anything about it either."
After she said that, she quickly hung up the phone.
When she hung up the phone, she realized that her vision was blurred.
She had clearly said words to hurt him, but she was still the first to shed tears.
How useless of her...
At first, Lucille thought that Franklin would call her back, but this time, he still did not.
He never called her back.
When Lucille realized that he did not call her, she then called Zoel.
The call was only answered after a long time.
"Hi."
It was a woman's voice.
At first, Lucille was taken aback. She thought that she had dialed the wrong number, but when she looked at the screen, it was indeed his number. She asked cautiously, "Hello, is this Zoel?" Did he lose his phone?
"Oh..." The woman gave a long and meaningful hum before saying, "He went to the bathroom. Wait for a while." "Why don't I call him back later?"
Lucille felt a little embarrassed for disturbing his date, perhaps.
When she was about to hang up the phone, Zoel's voice came from the other side of the phone. "Megan, what is it?"
"Nothing. Someone called you. It's a woman."
The woman who answered the phone said.
The next second, Zoel's voice came from the phone, "Lucille, what is it?"
"Nothing... Am I disturbing you? I'm sorry." She apologized first.
"You're not disturbing me. What's the matter?"
"It's nothing. I asked Abby to change Franklin's paternity test report. He... He seems to be suspecting you. Although I've explained it to him, he doesn't believe me. I want to remind you of that to prevent..."
"It's fine. Let him come."
He said without hesitation.
"I'm sorry. I will think of a way to explain it to him."
Lucille felt really sorry. This was her own business, but she had to get him involved.
"I've told you, it's fine."
"Well... You should go back to your work. I'll hang up now."
After she said that, she quickly hung up the phone.
Actually, she realized that Zoel's voice sounded unnatural.
And, the woman who had answered the phone just moments ago was called Megan.
Lucille thought that her name sounded familiar. Back then, Zoel once fell asleep in the gallery. When she approached him, he took her in his arms and called her Megan.
Because of this, Lucille knew that he should already have someone in his heart.
Lucille was alone with the baby in the confinement club. She ate and drank as she was being taken care of by others. When she needed to rest during the day, the nurses would also take Aurora away. During this period of time, Zoel rarely came to visit her. Lucille lived a life of luxury.
It was almost time for her to leave the confinement club. The night before she left, all the nurses around held a small party for Aurora to celebrate her first month.
That night, apart from Lucille, other mothers joined. Everyone expressed sympathy for Aurora's cleft lip. They were not as mean as to speak ill of it like Alma.
Lucille chatted with another mother in the confinement club as she held Aurora, and her phone rang several times.
In the end, a nurse picked up her phone and patted her, saying, "Lucille, your phone is ringing."
"Thank you."
Lucille took the phone as she thanked her. It was from Zoel.
She thought he was going to ask her about her release from the confinement club the next day.
She asked, "Hello?"
"This is Lucille, right?"
As soon as the phone connected, she heard a woman's sobbing voice from the other end of the line.
Lucille could instantly tell that it was Megan.
"Nice to meet you..."
"What's so nice about it? Your ex-husband, what's his name? Is he a lunatic?"
"What happened?"
Lucille's heart skipped a beat when she heard this!
"He broke Zoel's bones! Are you going to do something about it? He's already in the hospital, but that man still wants to beat him up!" "Where are you guys?"
A chill crept up her heart when she heard this.
"We are at Genuine Hospital!"
"Okay, don't worry. I'll be there immediately!"
Lucille hung up the phone and handed Aurora to the nurse. Even though the nurse tried to stop her, she still took a taxi to Genuine Hospital.
As it was nighttime, the journey was smooth. Lucille rushed over in less than half an hour.
The moment she entered the hall, she saw that many parts of the white marble floor tiles that were stained with blood.
There was a commotion coming from not far away.
Lucille ran over with big strides and saw two men in the corridor being pulled apart by several security guards, and each of them was injured. Franklin's face was covered in blood, and he was still waving his fists in an attempt to get rid of the security guard's grasp.
"Franklin! What, what are you doing?"
Lucille ran between Zoel and him.
Franklin was a little surprised to see her, but soon he smiled and said dismissively, "What? I beat up your lover, and you felt upset about it. Is that why you came?"
"I've told you that the child is not his! Why won't you believe me?"
Lucille really did not expect him to beat Zoel up for this matter!
"Tell me then, who is the child's father?"
Franklin was being held by the security guard. He glared at Lucille with his dark eyes, looking persistent and serious.
