"What's wrong with these reporters..."
Before she could react, a bunch of reporters had rushed into the ICU area. They were facing Coralie
and Franklin, who were standing on the side, and they kept taking pictures.
"Hello, may I ask if Madam Xander is in this intensive care unit?"
A reporter placed a microphone directly in front of Coralie and asked her.
"I..."
"Please leave!"
Franklin stepped in front of Coralie and said this to the reporters. He drew the curtains in Grandmother
Holland's ICU so that they could not see what was inside.
The reporters looked at Franklin from head to toe. Someone recognized him and said, "I know who he
is. He is the young master of the Moore family, and his mother is a member of the Holland family."
Hearing that Franklin was related to the Holland family, the reporters abandoned Coralie and Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
surrounded him in an instant.
"Mr. Moore, could you please tell us who is in this ward?"
"Are you here at the hospital to see your great-grandmother?"
"Mr. Moore, can you tell us what you are doing in the hospital?"
The reporters asked one question after the other.
They didn't recognize Coralie, so they naturally gave up asking her any questions.
Franklin pretended to be puzzled and looked at the reporters. "My Aunt is ill. I am here to visit her. Is
there any problem?"
"Aunt?"
"Yes."
Franklin brushed his coat and said this quite naturally. It was impossible to tell that he was lying.
"Is your Aunt inside the room?"
There were reporters who didn't believe him. Franklin didn't look like a filial son who had come to the
hospital to see his Aunt. There was something strange about this matter.
"I can open the curtains for you to see, but if my Aunt is inside, and not my Great-grandmother, could
you bear the responsibility of not trusting me?"
Franklin narrowed his eyes and looked at the reporter who was questioning him. He said this quite
pleasantly. There was no trace of anger in his voice, but he seemed oppressive.
The reporter immediately retreated.
The reporter changed the topic to Coralie and asked, "Then this lady is..."
"She is my wife."
After saying that, Franklin raised his hand and moved Coralie toward him. He placed his hand on her
shoulder, creating an intimate scene.
"I am not!" After Coralie said that, she realized that she would expose the matter of Grandmother
Holland's illness, if the reporter found out about her identity. She quickly added, "I haven't agreed to his
pursuit. Please have some self-respect, Mr. Moore."
As she spoke, she discreetly pulled off Franklin's hand that was on her shoulder.
The two of them were secretly arguing with each other, but in the eyes of the reporters, this was a
couple flirting with each other. No one doubted this.
"Please leave quickly, or I'll call the police."
At this time, a young doctor wearing glasses and a white coat came from the distance, with seven or
eight security guards behind him.
Coralie recognized him at a glance. This was Dr. Harvey Felton, whom she had met when she came to
this hospital for the first time.
When the reporters heard that the police might come, and they saw the group of security guards, they
immediately gave up, apologized and left.
"Miss Chariott, I'm sorry that I'm late. They didn't discover anything, did they?"
Skylar had already ordered Harvey to pay attention to the security around Grandmother Holland's
ward, in order not to let outsiders know that Grandmother Holland was hospitalized here. He did not
want the reporters to know of this.
Generally, the reporters wouldn't dare to break into this hospital, and he wasn't worried about this
matter. He didn't expect that they would be so bold this time.
"No, they didn't, thanks to Mr. Moore's quick thinking."
Coralie waved her hand.
"That's good. That's great."
When Harvey heard this news, he was so excited that he almost cried. He was really afraid that
reporters would take pictures of Grandmother Holland's condition just now, because Skylar had told
him earlier that he must not let reporters enter the hospital.
This was considered as a great help to him.
When Harvey left, Franklin looked at Coralie's relaxed expression, as if everything was now resolved.
He said with a smile, "The video just now will be broadcast on TV, and at the very least, it will be posted
online."
"What? Ahem! Ahem!"
Coralie was so agitated that she choked on her saliva.
She also knew that they looked like a couple just now. Now, how could she explain this to Skylar?
......
Sure enough, the next day, the video of Franklin and Coralie flirting with each other was immediately
released on the Internet.
Originally, Skylar didn't see this video. After all, he didn't usually have time to browse through these
gossiping reports.
However, after the meeting today, he saw two female employees holding a tablet and watching a video.
He looked up and glanced at it casually, only to see that the video was actually about Franklin and
Coralie.
Although there was no sound in the video, it could be seen clearly that they were flirting with each
other.
Skylar's calm face suddenly became gloomy. "When was this video taken?"
The two female employees were happily watching the video. When they looked up and found that their
boss was behind them, they were scared out of their wits.
"President Holland."
One of them was bold enough to say hello.
"I asked, when was this video taken?"
Skylar asked the same question again.
"This?"
"This is what I saw this morning. It seems to be yesterday's incident."
The female employee did not dare to delay her answer and she replied truthfully.
The video was very short, around 30 seconds. Skylar held a tablet and watched the video for almost
thirty times before turning to leave.
"Boss, will you come back later? There will be a meeting later!"
The assistant asked from behind.
He could also see that Skylar was absolutely furious and livid, as he watched the video over and over
again.
......
Coralie still had a little hope that the reporters would not broadcast the video of Franklin and herself.
However, not only did they broadcast it, they took out their questions and focused on the part where the
two of them were flirting with each other.
After all, Franklin was a well-known playboy. He had been involved in scandals with female celebrities.
Some people were willing to watch the news about him.
After watching the video, Coralie held her cell phone and thought of how to explain this matter to
Skylar.
However, she hadn't made up her mind yet.
"Beep!"
She heard the sound of the fingerprint scanner on the door being activated. This time, Coralie knew
that Skylar had returned!
It was still afternoon. If he came back at this time, it would certainly not be due to other matters.
"You're back. Let me explain about the video!"
Coralie stood at the stairwell and looked on as Skylar walked in from the outside. His handsome face
was terribly cold as if he was going to swallow her alive.
"Tell me then. You'd better think about what you want to say."
Skylar stood at the door and walked toward Coralie step by step, full of rage.
