You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)
Chapter 88

Skylar turned to look at Coralie. The light in the room was very dim.

Coralie was standing against the dim light, with her long hair hanging down on her shoulders, and there was a trace of doubt on her face.

"What's wrong?"

"Today, I met Josephine. She returned the money to me. Andrew hit her again." Coralie walked into the study, sat on the chair in front of Skylar's desk, and held her chin. "She was very beautiful and confident when she was in college. Many people chased after her, but now she is being mistreated by Andrew. She can only swallow her anger and do nothing."

"Everyone is making choices constantly. Since they have made their choice, they have to bear the consequences."

Coralie was also the same back then.

When she chose to leave Skylar and marry Howard, she wasted her youth.

"I think I will be lonely all my life. I've been so lonely all my life..."

Coralie was looking at Skylar and thinking about Josephine when her phone rang.

When she picked up the phone, Andrew's furious voice could be heard from the other end. "Coralie, you got a divorce and found a good husband for yourself. You just incited Josephine to get a divorce, didn't you?"

"Andrew?"

Coralie didn't know what was going on.

"Coralie, how dare you ask Josephine to get a divorce? I'm poor now and you all look down on me. Let me tell you, if I become a famous streamer in the future, I'll earn 10,000 dollars a month. I won't even be interested in her!"

Andrew cursed over the phone.

Soon, the phone was grabbed by Josephine, and she sounded like she was crying. "I'm sorry, Coralie, I'm sorry."

After that, she hung up.

Coralie looked at the black screen on her cell phone and felt a sense of regret. "If I had not been a housewife for three years, I would have used that time to work. Maybe, I can force Josephine to get a divorce now, but I am still new to all of this, and I can't help her at all."

For the first time, Coralie felt that she would definitely persuade Josephine to get a divorce and help her if she was strong enough.

"It's her choice. It's useless for you to persuade her. If she had decided not to get a divorce and give Andrew a chance, it will be pointless for you to persuade her otherwise," Skylar explained.

"That's right. She doesn't want to get a divorce. I can feel it. The suggestion she wants to hear is how they can continue their life."

Coralie laid on the table, feeling helpless.

"By the way, in regards to Howard. He will probably be locked away for some time, for trespassing and attempted r*pe."

"Ah... Okay..."

Speaking of Howard, Coralie did not know what to say.

Attempted r*pe...

It was also unexpected that Howard and herself would turn out like this.

Since Dominic had come by, Joanna restrained herself. Coralie could work peacefully.

On Saturday, Lillian said that she would come to Skylar's house. In order not to cause any trouble for Skylar, Coralie decided to avoid her. She decided to go home to accompany her mother and brother for the weekend, and she would come back on Monday.

Skylar also agreed to this.

Coralie packed up her things and she wore a coat. When she walked to the door, she saw a thin old lady running toward her from far away, and she knelt down in front of her.

Before she could react, the old lady began to cry, "Coralie, please, please spare my son. I only have one son. If he is in prison, what should I do?"

Coralie lowered her head and saw that it was Morgana kneeling in front of her.

A few days ago, Alison was also here. She suddenly felt that Howard's family was not easy to deal with.

"You get up first."

Coralie was scared out of her wits. She took a step back and reached out to pull Morgana up.

On Saturday, there were many people walking pass the community entrance. As soon as Morgana shouted loudly, the people who were around, including the security guards, gathered around them. "I won't get up." Morgana shook off Coralie's hand and cried, "Coralie, you are so vicious. You don't want our family to survive!"

It was getting more crowded, and everyone began to point at them. "What's going on? What happened exactly?"

"Who knows? It seems that this woman has dumped the son of this lady."

When Morgana saw that there were many people coming, she began her act. "Coralie, when you married my son, my son loved you so much. He treated you so well. However, you met a rich man. In a twinkling of an eye, you dumped him. Now, you are afraid that he will affect your future, so you sue him and let him go to jail! Is your heart made of stone?"

Her cry was loud, and she was an old lady. All of a sudden, the sympathy of the crowd was aroused.

People around her began to look at Coralie with disdain.

Coralie looked at her. Since Morgana didn't get up, she squatted down and asked, "Do you remember wrongly? Did he cook for me? I cooked for you after work every day! Do you know that your son was having an affair with Alison when you had a stomachache and vomited on me?"

Who didn't know how to pretend to be pitiful? Moreover, Coralie didn't need to make up a story. What she said was the truth!

"Have you no conscience? My son was so good to you, and now you're talking about him like this? Who was cheating on you? Who loved the rich over the poor? You had been married to my son for 3 years and you couldn't have a child, I hadn't said a word of blame. Now you want my son to be put in jail, what will I do with the rest of my life if he goes to jail!"

Morgana knelt there with her hands on the ground, and her tears flowed as she talked.

It was just like a scene from a soap opera.

"If you want to continue to make up stories here, then go ahead. I won't accompany you. You can ask your son what he did when you see him in jail. Then, you'll know who was right and who was wrong." Coralie knew that everyone would support Morgana since she was a younger person and Morgana was an elder.

They would never consider whether what she said was true or not.

However, when Coralie stood up, Morgana grabbed her leg suddenly and began to beg her desperately. "I beg you, Coralie, spare my son. I know that your husband has great power and he is capable. People like us can't be compared with him. But for the sake of your three-year marriage, please spare him!"

Coralie's leg was held by Morgana. Looking over at Morgana's reaction, she didn't know what to do at that moment.

At this moment, a Porsche stopped outside the crowd. The driver got out of the car and walked into the crowd. When she heard Morgana's words, her face became extremely ugly. She asked, "Coralie, what does she mean? Who were you married to for three years?"

Lillian was the person speaking.
