"Skylar, you really like meddling in others' business," Yohan said.
His mood was ruined after hearing what Skylar said.
Obviously, his tone was awful as well.
"Leonardo doesn't like to give back what he has taken away from others. In that case, I'll help him return some things that do not belong to him," Skylar expressed.
He stood in front of Yohan without any fear at all.
"Really?"
Jerry was the first to ask.
"Really."
Skylar nodded.
"Why should we believe you?"
Tom was smarter, so he wanted to get reassurance from Skylar.
"You have no choice but to trust me. He just said that he would not return the patent. If you don't utilize my help, regardless of which option you choose today, it'll lead you to your grave."
Skylar communicated clearly and reasonably.
"Tom, let's follow him."
Jerry suggested.
"Lawsuit? You won't be able to beat me at that. I once beat him, so why would you believe his words?"
Yohan said while walking forward.
Seeing him walk forward, Tom pulled Coralie and stepped back.
"Stop!"
Skylar grabbed hold of Yohan when he saw him moving forward.
"Get out of my way. I'll save her if you won't."
Yohan walked forward as he was speaking.
Tom took a small step back with every step Yohan took forward. "Don't come over!" Tom said.
"Let her go. Take this three million dollars and get lost," Yohan said.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!" Skylar yelled.
He rushed over and grabbed hold of Yohan as he continued to move toward Tom and Coralie.
Both of them fought at this moment.
At that very moment, Tom was observing and didn't notice that he had already reached the edge of the building.
He moved one small step back and couldn't feel the ground.
"Ah!"
They didn't fall immediately, but their feet were in the air. They had lost their balance.
As Coralie's hand was tied up, she could not move at all. She could only lean forward as much as possible.
At this most critical moment, she raised her eyes slightly and saw Skylar rushing towards her. On the other hand, Yohan stood still. His body slightly leaned forward but his legs were not moving.
"Skylar, don't come over."
Coralie could only say that at that moment.
However, she knew that Skylar couldn't hear her. He rushed over to save her.
Coralie felt that she was falling, and it was already too late when Skylar rushed over. Both of them fell together.
"It's over."
At this moment, there were only two words in Coralie's mind. She knew that they were on the third floor and there weren't any grass or bushes beneath them. They would most likely die falling from this height.
The two of them fell off the building together...
Other than them, Tom was falling too.
......
After the longest time, Coralie woke up again.
When she opened her eyes, she didn't see a white wall or a white bed. Instead, she saw something she was familiar with, an old-fashioned but luxurious room.
This was her room in the Watson family home in S Country.
Coralie turned around and saw some machines in the room. They seemed like monitors for her pulse. Otherwise, there was nothing else.
"Skylar, Skylar..."
The scene before they fell was gushing through her brain as soon as she woke up.
"What do you mean..." She asked.
Her face turned pale as well.
When she fell from the third floor, she only fainted and wasn't badly injured. What could that mean?
Did she fall on Skylar and Tom?
"I'll make things simple." Yohan walked beside Coralie, sat on the bed, and put his hand on her legs over the comforter. "Just stay with me for the rest of your life and don't get distracted by any other thoughts," he said.
"Yohan, you don't love me nor care about me. You don't even care if I die, so why do you want to keep me by your side?" Coralie asked.
Her hand was almost trembling.
She didn't know what happened to Skylar, but she had to go and have a look at him regardless. It would be great if Yohan was willing to let her go, otherwise, she would sacrifice anything to leave.
"Who says that I don't love you?" Yohan reached out to brush Coralie's hair but she avoided him with disgust.
"Tell me, where is Skylar? What happened to him? Is he badly injured?" Coralie continued asking.
"I don't know," Yohan said.
That was the only thing he could say after Coralie's relentless questioning.
"You don't know?" Coralie asked.
"Two days ago, both of you were separated after you fell down. However, according to the news from A City, I'm afraid that it might be bad news," Yohan answered.
"You're lying!" Coralie shouted.
She wanted to get out of the bed, but she was dizzy and fell over.
Yohan looked at her and frowned. "Why can't you just stay with me in peace? You're the only one whom I want by my side," he said.
"But I don't care about that!" Coralie shouted.
"You're the one who exchanged your life for his. You're the one who said that you'll stay with me forever," Yohan said.
He squatted down and grasped Coralie's arm tightly. He looked frightening.
"But he might be dead..." Coralie said.
"Don't worry if he is dead. I have a recording of him with me. Do you want to watch it?"
Yohan asked gently, unlike how he usually sounded. It was as if he was tempting her to watch the video.
