You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

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 was in Yoel's office.

What she didn't know was that this wasn't Yoel's office but a place that he had borrowed.

"Auntie Harington, you can't blame me for this. You said it yourself that even those famous lawyers

don't dare to take this case, but I was willing to help you. You are not grateful, yet you blame me?"

Yoel sat there, holding the materials regarding the case in his hands. His handsome brows were knitted

together and he seemed to be a bit aggrieved.

"Who else do I blame, but you? You are my lawyer. Look at your performance today. You were already

speechless after Marcellus said a few words!"

Amelia watched Yoel's face. If the accident had not been caused by Valerie, but by a certain worker of

the Rae Group, she would have forgiven Yoel a long time ago.

However, for the sake of her daughter, she still held hope.

"Auntie Harington, I really hoped to win this lawsuit. You see, I haven't had a good sleep for more than

a month. I've been staying up all night to research the case and now I have dark circles under my

eyes."

As Yoel spoke, he stood up and approached Amelia step by step. After that, he pointed at the area

below his eyes with his slender fingers and he feigned an innocent expression.

When he stopped, he was only a few centimeters away from Amelia!

Amelia raised her head and looked at Yoel, who was much taller than her. His handsome face was right

in front of her line of vision. She had never felt such great waves of emotions at her old age, but she

was a little nervous at that moment.

"You... You step back!"

Amelia's face turned red when she was teased by him that way. However, she soon realized that she

had lost her composure!

She was Madam Rae. How could she be teased like this by a young man?

"Ah, I'm sorry, Auntie Harington," Yoel said as he took a step back and returned to his original spot.

"Don't get me wrong. I just want you to trust me. I'm working really hard. I really want to help you win

this lawsuit."

"I only look at the results. What I see now is that we have lost the suit."

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..." Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

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?"
