You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 429

When Skylar returned home, Coralie had been sitting on the sofa for a long time. She didn't expect that the murderer who had killed her father hadn't been imprisoned, and was still alive.

Moreover, she had appeared in front of her countless times, but Coralie did not know!

"You knew about this, don't you?"

When she had called Skylar earlier, he didn't seem surprised. At that time, Coralie already had a feeling that he knew it already. Skylar didn't elaborate on the matter or even mention it. Logically, that was not his style at all as he had always cared about her matters. Thus, Coralie knew that Skylar must have already known about it.

However, at that moment, she wanted to confirm when Skylar had found out about it.

"Yes." answered Skylar.

"How long have you known?"

"After rescuing you, we left a recording device in the kidnapper's car. Later, Finley talked about this matter after driving away."

Skylar did not intend to hide anything. After all, this matter was related to Coralie's father. He also knew that Coralie had always been unable to let go of her father's death.

"I...I want to see her,"

Coralie said.

"You want to see her?"

"Yes, I want to ask her why she didn't save him at that time. Why did she run away!"

She had been holding this in her heart for many years. She wanted to ask Valerie why she was so cruel back then.

Why didn't she save her father after hitting him!

If she had, her father might not have died!

When Skylar heard this, he walked over and embraced Coralie, whispering, "Now, except for Valerie's lawyer, no one can meet her."

"Will she be sentenced?"

This was what Coralie cared most about.

Valerie had been free for too long! It was obvious that she had knocked someone down and escaped, but she had lived a free and unfettered life because of her wealth. She had not paid any price. It was unfair!

"Yes, she will," Skylar nodded with certainty. "I've hired the best lawyer in A City. They won't have any chance."

"Then... Can I attend the trial next time?"

Coralie looked nervously at Skylar. She wanted to see Valerie's downfall with her own eyes so that she could give a sense of peace to her dead father.

"No way!"

However, considering that Coralie was pregnant, Skylar immediately refused.

"Skylar, just this once. Let me attend the trial. I want to hear what she has to say about this." Coralie promised him as she leaned into his embrace. "I won't get too agitated and I won't do anything to hurt our baby."

"Well, only this time. Even if Valerie appeals after losing the court case next time, you can't go."

"Okay."

Coralie nodded quickly.

This time, Valerie lost the court case. Amelia saw with her own eyes that Valerie was taken to court. As soon as she saw a sliver of hope, she saw it vanish again in her own eyes.

"It's all your fault. Are you even capable?"

Amelia turned her face away when she spoke. When she saw Yoel's upset expression, she realized that she was actually a little reluctant to blame him!

"I'm sorry." Yoel stood there as he apologized, his head drooped low. "I really want to help you, but I'm just too incompetent. I've gone through so many materials but I still can't settle Marcellus. The gap between us is too big... Why don't you go find another lawyer? I won't hold up your rescue of your daughter."

After Yoel finished speaking, he sat back at his desk with his arms crossed, his head hidden between his arms. He looked quite remorseful.

Upon seeing Yoel like this, the anger in Amelia's stomach dissipated by half in a flash.

She actually thought that he was indeed working very hard in her heart, but Marcellus was so powerful that she couldn't blame him.

Thinking of this, Amelia walked forwards and patted Yoel on the shoulder, consoling him. "Forget it. There's still a second trial. We have to seize this upcoming opportunity and not make the same mistake again."

Hearing Amelia's words, Yoel did not raise his head. He shook his head and said, "No, I can't stand in your way of saving your daughter. Otherwise, if I fail again, you will definitely be sad. If that's the case, I will blame myself even more..."

As a matter of fact, this was Yoel's usual trick.

To retreat was to advance.

Amelia's reaction was just as he had expected.

Amelia opened her bag and took out a check. She wrote a million and handed it to Yoel. "How about this? Take this money and ask a better lawyer to help you see if there are any other openings in this case. After all, you are new and it's easier to do things if you have money."

In fact, Amelia could have taken the money and gone to find a lawyer on her own, but she gave the money to Yoel.

This was enough to prove her trust in him.

As expected, when Yoel heard this, he suddenly raised his head. Beneath his star-like obsidian eyes, two trails of tear stains hadn't dried...

Seeing that Yoel was actually crying over this matter, Amelia pushed the check to his side and said, "You just entered the industry and still have a long way to go in the future. How can you shed tears over such a setback?"
