You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 505

Lucille was speechless for a moment. That had a big impact on her.

She remembered very clearly that her mother suddenly died of illness when she was seven years old. After about a year later, Marvin married Alma.

When Alma went to their house, she brought Natasha along, who was only five years old during that time.

"Lucille, you are my dearest sister, that's why I am so kind to you." Natasha said sarcastically.

"So... dad was the one who cheated?" Lucille asked.

"I think so. I'm just a child. I know little about the adults. Why don't you ask dad?"

Natasha did not pretend to be gentle anymore, but was rather arrogant.

She could imagine Lucille's expression, which was exactly what she wanted.

"I don't believe you!"

Lucille then hung up abruptly.

Her hand was shaking. The impression of Marvin as a good father figure was ruined completely after the death of her mother and when Alma became part of their life.

Lucille thought Marvin must have difficulties with what happened that night. However, at that moment, she knew that Marvin could have cheated on her mother when she was still alive...

"What's wrong?" Abby turned her head and saw Lucille's ghastly pale face.

"It's okay. I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed."

Lucille went to bed. However, she tossed and turned, finding it difficult to fall asleep.

Initially, she thought that Franklin had accepted her, which made her feel very happy. However, she didn't expect that to happen.

Lucille didn't sleep well the entire night because of the family affair that was brought up. She woke up at 9 the following morning, while Abby was still sleeping.

She quickly got dressed and rushed to work.

When she arrived at the gallery, there was a Mercedes-Benz at the parking lot where Zoel used to park his car.

The door of the gallery was opened.

When Lucille stepped in, she saw Zoel sitting on the couch playing games. She walked over and asked, "Where's your car? I think someone has occupied your parking space. Do you need me to make a call and ask the person to move the car?"

"That's my car." Zoel replied without raising his head and continued to play the game.

"Huh? Have you earned a lot and then get a new car?" Lucille wondered.

Previously, Zoel drove a local made car, which cost around 100,000 dollars. The SUV parked out there seemed worth more than hundreds of thousands.

The gallery's business was rather stagnant in recent days. There were no major orders. How could he suddenly get such a luxurious car?

"No, my dad came a few days ago and saw me driving that shabby car. He insisted on getting this for me. It's hard for me to refuse his kindness."

While Zoel spoke, he raised his head and messed up his hair with one hand, making him look like a worthless man.

He was already in his early thirties, but he was still acting like a kid.

Lucille put her things away. When she watched him acting like that, she couldn't help but asked, "Did you get a sugar-mummy?"

"You are looking down on me." Zoel put his cell phone aside and sat up straight. He said with a mysterious look, "No. In fact, I am the so-called silver-spoon child who will inherit the family property worth billions of dollars if I don't run my gallery well."

Lucille held the laughter and pretended to believe earnestly, "I will try my best to sell the paintings so that you won't have to inherit those billions worth of property."

"Well, thanks for your hard work."

Zoel then picked up his phone again and continued playing his game.

Lucille felt down initially. She was enlightened because of the man's ridicule.

She had not bought anything as she didn't have much money. She had also given Natasha quite a sum of money. Since Marvin had given her some money the previous day, thus she could finally go shopping.

However, what Zoel said that day caused her to scruple.

"Don't say no, let's go. It's unusual that I'm in a good mood today. I'm willing to be your driver and to carry stuff for you.You won't reject me, will you?"

"Well, thank you, Mr. Parker."

Looking at Zoel's serious expression, Lucille could not help but agreed.

Zoel was happy, as Lucille had agreed. He stepped on the accelerator and drove her to a new shopping mall. They first found a restaurant at a lower floor to have dinner. After the dinner, they went to the top floor to buy some baby products.

After going to the upper floor, Zoel asked, "Is the baby a boy or a girl?"

"I don't know..."

Lucille shook her head.

She looked at the dazzling array of baby products. All of which were arranged according to different color. She then realized that she might be there a bit too early. Generally, people would buy blue stuff for boys and pink stuff for girls.

She didn't even know the gender of the baby, thus she had no idea which color to pick.

"Then just get something that's not related to gender." Zoel suggested. He picked up a beautiful cartoon backpack and said, "Let's get this. This backpack is so cute, the kid can carry it later."

"A newborn baby doesn't need this. The kid will only be able to walk about one year of age."

Lucille understood that Zoel did not know much about babies.

"Really? Then what does a newborn need?" As a man, Zoel looked strange when he wandered about the baby products.

They walked around the stores without noticing there was someone following behind them while taking photos of them with a cell phone. They had been followed since they were having dinner.
