You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 304

"Met before? Hey miss, why do you think I look familiar? Could it be that we are fated to meet each other?"

Finley mused, going with the flow. When Coralie said that he looked familiar, Finley began teasing her.

Jasper's head started to ache. If he was not doing it for Valerie, he would have told Finley to get lost a long time ago!

"I must have been mistaken!" Coralie denied.

Hearing the rascal's words, Coralie wanted to end their conversation as quickly as possible.

"You can't have been mistaken!" Finley said.

Finley's attitude was volatile. Upon knowing that Coralie was Jasper's sister, his demeanor changed. Knowing that he looked familiar to her, his attitude performed a full 180 once again.

"President Zac, I have to go now. I'll let you handle things here. If this employee remains here, even if it is a small company, it will bring shame to the reputation of the Zac family."

Coralie's words were very polite but they hinted strongly at Jasper to fire Finley.

Coralie was not on very good terms with Jasper, therefore, she could only hint at him. Jasper might even not listen to her.

After that, Coralie left.

Coralie went back to the company and went over the report carefully. After sending it to Lisa, she rushed to the rehabilitation center where Skylar was without wasting another second.

The place was very far from the city, and was inaccessible by public transport. Hence, Coralie had to take a taxi.

After changing cabs thrice, she finally found a driver who was willing to bring her all the way to the center. Despite being asked to pay more than usual, Coralie couldn't care less. After negotiating the fare with the driver, she got in the cab and headed for the mountains.

On the way there, Coralie pondered on the incident involving Finley. The more she dwelled on it, the more she felt that Finley looked familiar.

Coralie had definitely seen him before, but it was probably a long time ago.

However, Coralie also felt that she had seen too many people over the years. Perhaps, Finley was just a passer-by. She gave up after a while, unable to recall who he was.

......

The trip took more than two hours, and she finally arrived at the rehabilitation center that Valerie told her about.

After the driver left, Coralie stood at the gates and shouted, "Is anyone there?"

It was already eight o'clock in the evening and it was almost dark. Coralie stood there and looked at the empty rehabilitation center. Trees were overgrown near the entrance, blocking the pathway leading up to the main entrance of the rehabilitation center.

From where she stood, Coralie could see a two-storey building. However, the lights were turned off.

"It's empty? It can't be..."

Coralie's first thought was that she was deceived by Valerie.

She never questioned it initially as she personally saw Valerie forward the details to her without even checking it beforehand. If Valerie was to lie to her, she would have at least given it a passing glance.

"Is anyone there?"

Coralie shouted desperately.

After a while, there was still no reply. Coralie looked up at the tall walls surrounding the rehabilitation center. She thought of scaling the walls but immediately shook the idea off.

It was winter, and she was wearing only a down jacket. Although her coat was very thick, it wouldn't keep her warm for long.

Coralie stood there for over an hour before she saw a beam coming from a flashlight.

"Hello!"

Coralie shouted loudly.

At her call, the beam turned and shone in her direction, indicating that the person holding the flashlight heard her voice.

Coralie felt grateful for the fortunate turn of events. In such a remote place, it would be difficult for her to even get home if the center turned out to be deserted.

Soon, Coralie saw a young nurse heading towards her with a flashlight

The nurse said as soon as she saw Coralie, "We don't welcome outsiders here. You should leave."

She was the nurse who let Valerie in previously. After Valerie was sent away, she was scolded by the dean. This time around, she had learned her lesson. She would not repeat her mistake and let Coralie in.
