You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Chapter 178



Chapter 178

"Are you sure?"

After hearing what Coralie said, the policeman turned back to look at her.

"I'm sure. She left from my place yesterday. Besides, she only has a few clothes, and she bought them

with me in our senior year, so I can recognize them whenever she wears them."

Coralie was afraid that the policeman did not believe her, so she quickly supported her reasoning with

more details.

Moreover, she did buy that piece of clothing with Josephine in their senior year. She didn't expect her to

be wearing it for so many years.

The police believed what she said and went to the community to check the surveillance footage. Sure

enough, the monitoring of the community was either too blurry or the camera was broken. After looking

around, they didn't manage to find it. There was no other way, so they could only go to the gas station

at the entrance of the community to look at the surveillance footage.

Although Josephine's house was an old residence, the location was good. The gas station at the gate

was huge.

The manager of the gas station took the policeman in to check the surveillance footage with Coralie

tagging right behind.

As soon as she entered the convenience store of the gas station, she saw a tall man swiping his card

at the cashier.

Just as the man finished swiping his card, he turned around and saw Coralie. He raised his hand and

greeted her, "Coralie, what a coincidence! What are you doing here?"

Coralie didn't own a car, so it appeared to be strange for her to show up at a gas station.

"I have something to do..."

Coralie didn't expect that she would bump into Franklin Moore there.

Franklin's face was full of disbelief when he saw the policeman standing next to her, "You didn't commit

a crime, did you?"

"No!"

"Oh, your man asked me to meet him. I'm going to go there now, do you want to come with me?"

Skylar wanted to ask Franklin about Valerie's car accident in the past, so he set up an appointment with

him.

As his car was running out of fuel, he found a gas station, No. 98 Gasoline, on the way. He didn't

expect to meet Coralie there.

"No, thanks. I have something else to do..."

In fact, Coralie was a little regretful to get involved in that matter. If Josephine was fine after all, she

would be even more dangerous.

After all, Andrew and Howard had nothing to lose.

However, since she was already involved, she tried not to drag Skylar into the mire.

"OK, I'll get going. Call me if you need anything."

Although Franklin walked out as if nothing had happened, he glanced at the policeman from time to

time. He heard the policeman talk to the manager of the gas station about someone's disappearance.

......

Skylar was waiting for him in a tea house.

Harvey was also there.

When Franklin entered, he saw Harvey sitting in the middle and was making tea while Skylar was

enjoying the tea with his seniority aura. He couldn't help teasing Harvey, "Mr. Felton, you are such a

loyal assistant to President Holland."

Everyone knew that Harvey and Skylar had always been close.

Harvey was relatively a soft person. In the eyes of outsiders, Harvey was more like a younger brother.

"I'm worried that he will waste such a good tea."

When Harvey saw Franklin come in, he poured a cup of tea for him and placed it where he was going

to sit.

Franklin looked at the tea and wrinkled his nose, "Why did you ask me to come here? Is the tea

poisoned?"

Franklin thought Skylar was an invincible person. Why would he need him?

Would he still be holding a grudge on the incident in which he sent Coralie to the hotel and was

photographed?

"It doesn't matter if you're not drinking it."

Hearing that, Harvey decided to take the tea away.

"I'll drink it, I'm just kidding."

Franklin immediately grabbed the clay tea cup in purple colour and bottomed up. Then, he asked

Skylar, "Look, I finished it. Now tell me, what's the matter?"

"Back then, Valerie had a car accident, didn't she?"

Skylar went straight to the point.

Hearing Skylar's question, Franklin was surprised. It was not strange that Skylar found out that, but it

was definitely uncanny that he asked him about it.

"Uncle, why are you asking me about her?"

Franklin was drinking the tea. He felt a little guilty because what happened that year was a huge stain

for Valerie, so he actually didn't intend to say anything about it.

"You were so diligent in pursuing Valerie that year, but you stopped so abruptly. I'm just asking out of

curiosity."

Harvey explained.

Hearing that, Franklin understood, "She killed someone when she was driving and found a scapegoat."

"And then?"

"And then she went abroad."

Franklin thought that Skylar must have already found out, so he didn't intend to hide it.

"How did you know that?"

Skylar put down the teacup and looked at Franklin. In fact, he had thought that Valerie was a hypocrite.

However, he needed to gather more information to get hold of Valerie's purpose as well as the person

behind her.

At the same time, he also asked William, who was good at using the computer, to check if there was

anything suspicious among the people who had contacted Valerie recently.

"This..."

Hearing Skylar ask that, Franklin was a little hesitant.

"Didn't you know that Valerie framed Coralie last time? Yet you're still helping her?"

Harvey chimed in.

He had also heard about that from Skylar. When he saw how Coralie looked when she was sent to the

hospital, he also felt that if that incident really had something to do with Valerie, then that woman was

indeed a vicious one.

"Alas, she wanted to hide it from her parents at that time, so she came to ask me to take the blame for

her... But I rejected her."

Franklin thought about it for a while and finally told them the truth.

"Rejected? You're already stupid enough to go after Valerie. You rejected her?"

Harvey teased him.

"If I had helped her, my father would beat me to death. At that time, I was still young, I didn't have the

guts to promise her."

Franklin was also about 20 years old at that time. For a child of that age, going to the jail was

absolutely a big thing.

"Then you hate her after that?"

"Sort of..."

Franklin didn't tell the truth about Valerie offering herself.

It was too much of a concern for a girl's reputation. Although Franklin hated Valerie, he wouldn't Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

disclose something like that to anyone.

......

That night, Anthony called Skylar to have dinner with Jasper.

One of the missions Jasper came to A city that time was to discuss business with Holland family.

Holland group's position in A city was relatively good. In addition, Anthony's company had established

its footing overseas and had foreign shares, thus it was a good partner for the Zac family.

When Skylar arrived at the room, he saw that other than Jasper and Anthony's presence, Valerie was

also sitting next to Jasper. The two of them were very close to each other, as if they were a couple.

When Skylar sat down, the three of them were talking about the cooperation. Valerie occasionally

interrupted them.

When they were almost done with the discussion, Jasper suddenly asked Skylar, "Young Master

Holland, are you close with Miss Coralie who went to the charity auction last time?"

Skylar did not expect Jasper to ask him that, so he nodded and calmly introduced, "She is my wife."

Upon hearing that, Valerie's expression, which had always been indifferent, darkened.

"Oh, do you know her parents' names?"

Jasper asked.

"Her parents?" In fact, Skylar investigated that before. "Her mother's name is Hera Jean, and her father

is Hendrick Chariott. He died in a car accident a few years ago."

"Oh!"

When Skylar mentioned the name of Coralie's father, Valerie stumbled and accidentally knocked over

the wine glass in front of her. The red wine spilled all over her body.
