You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 76

When the door was opened,

Coralie knew Skylar was back.

However, she thought that only Skylar was there.

She heard...

"Skye, it's cold. Remember to buy more clothes for Coralie. Her clothes were too thin the last time she came to my house."

Hearing this voice, Coralie's tears flowed out in an instant.

Why? Why did Grandmother Holland have to come at this time?

"Howard Schultz! Get up, let me go!"

Coralie struggled desperately in the house.

Howard didn't hear the sound outside clearly. He thought that Coralie's husband had returned. Suddenly, his lust was aroused. "Hey, let your husband see your slutty appearance."

Skylar heard the commotion in the room and was the first to rush in. He saw Coralie lying underneath Howard. Howard gripped both of her hands, and her clothes were lifted up, revealing her bra.

At that moment, he felt a sense of burning rage. He kicked Howard to the ground. He used one of his feet to step on Howard's neck and he looked down upon him. His eyes were full of murderous intent. "Who gave you permission to touch my woman, Howard?"

Howard looked up and saw that Skylar was the person who was kicking him. He was also shocked.

"Skylar Holland! Huh! Your woman has been touched by me so many times before. I'm almost sick of her!"

Howard looked at Skylar in surprise and anger.

Skylar hated him, and vice versa. Howard had liked Coralie for a long time, but everyone knew that Coralie had a good relationship with Skylar at that time.

Even though Skylar and Coralie had broken up in the end, Skylar was like a thorn in the side for Howard.

In his heart, he felt that he was not as good as Skylar.

"Are you tired of living?"

Skylar hated this phrase the most.

Coralie tidied up her clothes and hid behind Skylar. She couldn't stop crying.

"Coralie, I'm impressed. No wonder you divorced me so quickly. Tell me, did you get together with him before the divorce and made me a cuckold?"

Howard had made many speculations about Coralie's husband, but he didn't expect that it was Skylar.

He thought that with Skylar's status, it was impossible for him to be with a second-hand reject like Coralie.

However, in reality, what he felt was impossible was the actual truth.

"Howard, do you think that I'm as shameless as you?"

Coralie cursed him behind Skylar's back.

At this time, the patrolling security guard who noticed the commotion came in and asked about the situation. "What's going on? Do you need help?"

"Just in time. Someone broke into the house. Call the police."

Skylar didn't lift his foot until the two security guards had Howard under their control.

Grandmother Holland knew that something was wrong at the door, but she didn't say anything. She wanted to wait for the security guards to take Howard away, and then ask about this.

However, as the security guards walked out with Howard, he broke free suddenly from them and rushed out. Grandmother Holland happened to be outside the door. As he did not control his strength, he rushed directly at Grandmother Holland and knocked her down. Then, he ran out without looking back.

"Don't run!"

The two security guards chased after him quickly.

When Coralie saw Grandmother Holland stumbling over, she immediately went to help her, but it was too late. Grandmother Holland had already fallen to the ground. She coughed a few times and fainted.

"Don't touch her. I will call the ambulance."

Skylar took out his cell phone and dialled 911 immediately.

As soon as the ambulance arrived, Grandmother Holland was taken to the hospital.

Skylar and Coralie were waiting outside the door. Coralie was feeling sorry deep down. She felt that she had caused these things to happen. She walked to Skylar and apologized, "I'm sorry, I..."

"Coralie, how dare you bring a man home? If anything happens to Granny, you should leave the Holland family, and I don't want to see you again."

Before she could finish her words, Skylar interrupted her and said this coldly.

Listening to his words, Coralie stood where she was, and her heart was aching so much that she couldn't breathe.

She thought that the situation just now was obvious. Howard had forced himself on her. Besides, she had also mentioned that Howard might come. However, why did Skylar come to the conclusion that she had brought a man home?

"I didn't!"

"You didn't? You told me before that you were worried about Howard and Andrew replaceing you, so you were very cautious when you opened the door. You knew it was Howard. Why did you open the door for him? Tell me!"

Skylar looked at Coralie, and his heart was full of anger.

Perhaps he believed Coralie, but now, his Grandmother, who loved him the most, was in the emergency room. How could he calm down? How could he rationally think about this matter?

"I thought..."

"What did you think?"

"I'm sorry."

Coralie could see from Skylar's eyes that he was disgusted with her. It was the first time she had seen such an expression on his face.

She felt as if her heart was being pierced.

She was clearly the victim, but she couldn't argue. In the end, it was her fault. She shouldn't have opened the door for Howard.

"How's Mom?"

At this time, Elsa was the first to arrive.

Coralie went to hide in a corner.

"She's still in the emergency room."

Skylar sat in the corridor of the hospital, and his voice was very gloomy.

"What happened? Why did she faint all of a sudden?" Elsa looked at Skylar and then at Coralie who was further away. She pointed at Coralie and asked fiercely, "Is it because of you? Did you cause Mom to be like this? Let me tell you, if anything happens to Mom, you're going to jail. No, even if she is fine, you will still go to jail."

Elsa thought that it was impossible for Skylar to hurt Grandmother Holland, since she loved him so much. However, she was not sure about Coralie.

Although Coralie was being scolded viciously by Elsa, Coralie still did not say a word.

In the end, she was responsible for what happened.

"That's enough."

Skylar noticed that Elsa was scolding Coralie in fury, and he still put in a word for her.

"Skylar, why did you marry her? For luck! Now, not only did she not bring any good luck, she caused Granny to be hospitalized. Why did you keep such a woman? Ask her to leave!"

No matter how Elsa scolded her, Coralie just sat there without saying a word.

Skylar's father was abroad all year round, so his mother, Lillian, came to see Grandmother Holland on behalf of her husband.

As Grandmother Holland was the matriarch of the family, no one dared to make this news public, nor did they inform their families about this.

After Lillian arrived, Elsa told Lillian that Coralie had caused this to happen, even if she didn't know the full details. Naturally, Lillian scolded Coralie too.

Coralie still didn't say a word.

At this time, the emergency light in the operating room went out. Coralie stood up first and went to the door. She pulled the doctor and asked, "Doctor, how is the patient?"

She was really scared. If anything bad happened to Grandmother Holland because of this, she would not be able to forgive herself, even if the others forgave her.
