You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 3

As the ownership of assets between Coralie and Howard was very clear, the divorce procedure was simple.

In just a few minutes, they had already gotten their divorce certificate.-

"Okay, Coralie, if there is anything in the future..."

Before Howard could finish his words, Alison nudged him gently with her elbow and said "Dear, what were you trying to say?"

Howard didn't continue his words after being reminded by Alison. He just waved his hands and left.

At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Howard and Alison left.

Coralie, who was alone with her bag in her hand, looked at the people who were coming in and out of the door. At that moment, she felt confused and helpless.

She walked towards the flower bed and sat down on the edges alone. She put her hands on her knees and looked into the distance with an empty gaze.

A black Mercedes-Benz was parked there for a long time.

The man in the back seat of the car looked at the ordinary girl who was sitting on the side of the road through the tinted glass. There was something strange in his deep and dark eyes.

"President Holland, the company's video conference is about to start."

His assistant, Jayson Lowell, who was sitting in the front seat of the car, kindly reminded him.

Not too long ago, when their car passed by the Civil Affairs Bureau, President Holland suddenly ordered the car to stop. Then, he kept looking at the couples who were here to get a divorce.

It looked like a couple was getting a divorce, and the man had even brought the mistress together with him.

The whole process from the time the three of them met at the entrance, to when they went in to get the divorce certificate, and until when the man and the mistress had left, he had been watching them silently.

Jayson was a little puzzled. President Holland had always been known for his aloofness. Since when did he start to get interested in other people's affairs?

"Cancel the video conference."

Upon finishing his sentence, the man in the back seat had already opened the door and strode towards the woman who was sitting next to the flower bed.

Jayson was so surprised that his jaw dropped. President Holland, who had always prioritized his work, had actually asked him to cancel a meeting. Has the sun risen from the West?

Coralie sat by the flower bed for a long time and adjusted her mood. She remembered that she had made an appointment with a realtor to check out a listing in the afternoon. Just when she was getting up to leave, she bumped into a dark figure.

The collision had sent her bag flying, along with the contents of the bag falling out to the ground.

Including the divorce papers.

"I'm sorry."

Coralie bent down to pick up the things, and the man also knelt down to help her.

After everything else was picked up and placed into the bag, both of their hands simultaneously reached out for the divorce papers that had fell quite a distance away.

Coralie's fingers gently touched the man's big palm. She quickly removed her hand off his and waited for the man to pick up the divorce papers to hand it to her before she finally raised her head to thank the man.

"Thank..."

Coralie looked up. Before she could finish saying "thank you", the smile on her face froze.

"Skylar... Holland?"

When she was about to leave, Skylar grabbed her arm with his big hand. The man's deep voice was full of displeasure. "I have something to do too."

Coralie didn't expect that he would hold her back so she replied awkwardly, "Then go ahead."

Over the years, she had heard from her classmates that Skylar had now inherited his family's businesses and became a powerful President at the company.

The gap between them was now as vast as the sea.

"It has something to do with you."

The man's voice was firm and loud.

At the same time, he had been holding Coralie's arm, and he had no intention of letting go of it.

Coralie struggled for a long time but failed to break free. Eventually, she gave up and turned to face Skylar. She asked seriously, "What's the matter?"

Skylar lowered his head and looked at Coralie, who was wearing a plain dress in front of him. After so many years, she had not changed at all.

She still looked like the obedient girl that he always knew, but deep down he knew that beneath her well-behaved appearance, she was more stubborn than anyone else.

"My grandmother has been in poor health recently. My family had requested me to get married, so that I can bring good luck for the family. I need a good-luck-bride."

The man said slowly.

To bring good luck for the family?

Coralie lowered her head and asked, "You're not actually considering me, a woman who had just been abandoned by a man, to fill in the role, are you?"
