You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 45

Skylar Holland lowered his head and looked down at Corrine Quincy, with a cold and indifferent expression. "Are you hoping that she will be sentenced to jail?"

He asked coldly.

He felt at this moment that Corrine looked nothing like Coralie Chariott. He felt disgusted just looking at her.

"Me?" Corrine was stunned. She could feel the disgust and indifference in Skylar's eyes. "No, of course not, but this is the truth. Even if I were to forgive her, would the police just let her go?"

Corrine looked up and tried to pretend to be pitiful, but it turned out that she was not good at acting in this manner.

Skylar was aware that she was acting. All he needed now was evidence.

He needed the evidence to prove that Corrine was actually framing Coralie.

After detaining Zachary Lane at the police station for investigation, the truth was revealed quickly. Corrine had bribed Zachary to destroy the surveillance camera. This proved indirectly that the whole incident was planned.

In the end, Coralie was released from detention.

She stood at the door of the detention center and looked up. When she saw Wayne Chariott, who came to pick her up, her eyes became teary. "I'm sorry, Wayne. I'm sorry for causing Mom and you to worry about me."

She was taken away directly on that day by the police. Her family received a call from the police explaining what had happened. Coralie feared that her mother could not accept the news.

"Mom was scared when she received the phone call. Fortunately, your manager called and said that the case was still under investigation. He said that there was already evidence that you did not commit the crime,"

Wayne comforted Coralie.

Not far away, a black Mercedes-Benz parked there. Skylar sat in the car and watched Coralie and Wayne leave. His heart was finally at ease.

He picked up his cell phone and dialed Corrine's number.

Corrine had recovered. She was resting back at home. "Hello, Skylar..."

Corrine knew that the truth was exposed, and she couldn't calm down. Now that she received a call from Skylar, she was even more anxious. "Corrine, you can either resign, or wait for the company to fire you,"

Skylar said coldly. Even if this incident involving Coralie didn't happen, he realized that Corrine was a person he shouldn't keep by his side.

It would be a disaster to keep such a vicious woman who was capable of doing such a thing.

"Skylar!" Corrine was frightened. "Listen to my explanation. I wanted to turn off the surveillance camera to teach her a lesson that day, but she really pushed me! I, I, how would I have the guts to jump down!" All Corrine was thinking about, tangentially doing now, was how to make Skylar believe her, that it was Coralie who pushed her down.

She absolutely did not want to lose a great source of income like Skylar.

"Since you are not willing to resign, wait for the company to inform you of this after your sick leave."

Skylar hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

He knew that if he continued talking to her, Corrine would probably try to convince him that she was innocent.

Wayne still had classes in the afternoon, so he went to school first.

Coralie took a cab home by herself. In the past few days, due to Coralie's detainment, Hera Jean hasn't been resting well. Coralie was also worried about leaving Hera at home on her own. However, when Coralie's cab just reached the community gate, she saw a luxury car across the road that was surrounded by many people.

It was a red Porsche, model 718

Initially, Coralie didn't want to meddle with other people's business. When she passed by the crowd, she happened to hear a middle-aged woman cursing.

"I'm telling you, I've seen a lot of blackmailers like you. No wonder you're poor. You never work hard. You are just thinking of getting benefits without doing anything!"

Hearing this voice, Coralie, who was already walking away, stopped.

This voice sounded very familiar.

The owner of this voice once said to her, "A woman like you can't marry into our family."

Coralie raised her head and looked at the middle-aged woman in the crowd. She had short, curly, fiery red hair and large sunglasses. Her lips were painted red, and she wore a fancy dress. After so many years, Lilian Ford, who is Skylar's mother, has not changed at all.

Even her taste was exactly the same as previous years.

"Get up. Stop faking an accident."

"Not only are you low-class, you're trying to blackmail me. Such a shameless person."

"That's right. We all saw that she didn't bump into you."

The gathered people were criticizing the person in front of the car, and Coralie couldn't help but take a curious glance forward.

She saw Hera Jean, her mother, lying in front of Lillian's car, with some vegetables scattered around her.

"Mom!"

Coralie was frightened. She quickly squeezed into the crowd, and went forward to help her mom up.

When Lillian saw Coralie, she didn't recognize her at first. She pointed at Coralie and continued to scold her, "What's wrong? Are you part of this play? Let me tell you, I hate people like you the most. You are rubbish. You deserve to be poor!"

"Are you done cursing? My mother has fainted. Did anyone call the ambulance? Blackmail? Who would want to blackmail you?"

Lillian never held back whenever she was scolding others. Coralie kept her mom's head high and shouted back at Lillian.

"Not blackmail? Fainted?" Lillian did not recognize Coralie. "How is it possible that she just coincidentally fainted next to my luxury car?" "That's right. Who would believe it if it's not blackmail?"

"That's right!"

There were many busybodies around. Since there were many cases of blackmail, some people liked to accuse others without knowing the facts. They claimed the moral high ground and criticized others. Hera regained consciousness after a while. Seeing that Coralie was holding her, she was relieved. "Coralie, you're here."

Lillian saw that Hera was awake and she immediately said, "Hmph, you're awake. Why don't you stop pretending? B*tch, do you think you can make me pay you?"

"Enough! My mother is in poor health these days. Do you have to do this?"

If it weren't for Hera's poor health, Coralie really didn't want to stay here for another minute. She had always despised Lillian.

In her eyes, the poor were always despicable, and none of them were good. Everything they did was for money.

Previously, her mother and brother had been hospitalized and she had an encounter with Lilian. Her presence was enough to discourage Coralie from being connected with Skylar for the rest of her life. "Why did you come out if you're sick? Why didn't you just rest at home?"

While Lillian was cursing, the nanny on the side was making a phone call. After a while, she hung up the phone and said, "Madam, the young master said that he would be here in a minute." Young Master?

Skylar?

Hearing this, Coralie's heart skipped a beat. If Skylar came here, the scene might become very awkward.

She didn't know what Skylar would think of this matter. However, she was worried that Hera would die of anger if she knew that her husband was the son of the woman who was scolding her now. Coralie lowered her head and asked, "Mom, can you stand up? I'll help you home."

At this moment, Lillian suddenly squatted down, looked at Coralie's face carefully, and asked suspiciously, "Weren't you the girl who seduced my son back in college?"
