Chapter 217
"Coralie is pregnant with your baby. It's impossible for her to commit suicide. I'm telling the truth. She
told me herself."
Josephine thought that Skylar Holland didn't believe her, so she repeated what she had just said.
The people in their surrounding kept their mouths shut.
The relationship between Coralie and Skylar was known to all, and they knew about Coralie's death.
A woman appeared out of nowhere and claimed that Coralie was pregnant with Skylar's child. Her
words had thrown everyone off their feet.
"Follow me."
Skylar tried his best to control his feelings.
He had never thought that Coralie was pregnant with his child. He had been living separately with
Coralie for three months. If she was pregnant, she would have been in her third month.
He took Josephine to his office.
After they left the front desk for a minute, Lorraine immediately got hold of the breaking news from the
front desk.
When Josephine and Skylar went upstairs, Lorraine deliberately brought a drink for Josephine just so C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
she could eavesdrop on their conversation.
However, just as Lorraine went in with the drink, Skylar drove her out, without even allowing her to put
down the drink.
"Tell me."
Skylar sat on the chair, staring at Josephine with frightening anger in his black eyes, as if he wanted to
see through her truthfulness.
However, Josephine was not afraid at all. She said to Skylar, "Coralie came to me when she was one
month pregnant. At that time, she had the idea of getting rid of the child..."
"Why? Why did she go to you and not me?"
When Skylar heard this, he couldn't sit still.
Coralie was pregnant with his child. Shouldn't she go to him first?
"President Holland, please listen to me."
Josephine knew that if Coralie had really died, the information she held would be of utmost importance.
"Coralie promised to marry the son of the Watson Group with the identity of the Zac family's daughter.
She did it for Skyton Corporation. At the same time, she asked an investment company under Watson
Group to invest in Skyton Corporation..."
After hearing Josephine's words, Skylar instantly unraveled the truth!
At that time, Skyton Corporation was staggering at the brink of crisis and was only one step away from
closing down. Suddenly, a new investment company was willing to invest in their corporation. This
investment company was a relatively large establishment from a foreign country. It had only been set
up in H Country for one or two years.
At that time, Skylar had no other choice but to accept it.
It was also because of this investment that Skyton Corporation was able to get back on track.
"It's her," he thought.
"Coralie found out that she was pregnant after she agreed to the marriage. She said that she couldn't
protect the child, so she wanted to get rid of her baby. You know that I'm a mother too, so I persuaded
her and she agreed to keep the baby in the end. I think no matter how cruel she was, she would never
drag her baby down with her."
These were Josephine's thoughts.
No matter how cruel she was, she would never let her baby die with her.
"Even when someone forced her to?" Skylar asked.
"Yes, she absolutely wouldn't. A woman grows extremely determined when she becomes a mother. No
matter how cruel she is, she won't do this."
As a mother, Josephine was certain of this.
Skylar looked at Josephine's eyes and was feeling unsettled.
However, he saw the footage with his own eyes. He literally saw Coralie disappear into the water with
his own eyes...
"Madam Lowell, I know how you feel, but I have gone to the police station and watched the footage. I
saw the whole process of her falling into the water and drowning."
Skylar looked at Josephine and said.
"How could it be..." Josephine said incredulously.
"However, thank you for telling me this." Skylar got up and said, "Jayson, send Madam Lowell off."
Josephine was in disbelief when she heard Skylar's words.
Originally, she still held a glimmer of hope in her heart that perhaps Coralie was not dead...
Now that Skylar had said these words, Josephine couldn't accept it for a moment. Even until she had
left the place, Josephine still did not recover from the shock.
"President Holland, Madam Lowell is gone."
Jayson came in to tell Skylar.
Skylar leaned against the chair and looked at the ceiling with glassy eyes. After a long time, he said,
"How could she be so cruel? She died with my child."
"President Holland, the result hasn't been verified and Coralie's body hasn't been found yet."
Jayson knew that Skylar was grieving, so he could only comfort him like this.
"Well, do you know that I saw her jumping into the dam and began to struggle? Tell me, did she regret it
at that time?"
"President Holland, Miss Chariott had always been a strong person, am I right? Based on her
character, is it possible that she did not commit suicide but misled others into thinking that she is dead?
She might have disguised herself now."
Jayson knew that Skylar was sad, but at this time, he felt that the most important thing was to give
Skylar emotional support.
Skylar must hold himself together, especially when Skyton Corporation was in such a crisis. If he fell
apart, Skyton Corporation would really be doomed.
"How could it be? I saw her disappearing into the water, but I really hope that what you said would be
true."
Skylar leaned against the wall and murmured.
"President Holland," Jayson called out of worry.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid. Coralie did everything for me. I'll show her how I will develop
Skyton Corporation into the biggest company possible. I can only repay her in this way."
Skylar was self-recriminating.
He had always been very conceited, but he had never thought that one day, he would have needed a
woman to sacrifice herself for his sake.
"You mean..."
Jayson didn't know what Josephine had said just now.
"Do you know why when we were in the most critical situation, and when all the banks refused to invest
in us, there was a company willing to help us?" Skylar's voice was hoarse, and he was on the edge of
breaking down. "It was not because of their belief in our ability like what they claimed. It was because
Coralie made a deal with them. Using herself."
Upon hearing this, Jayson was also stunned.
He had always believed that Coralie loved Skylar, but he never thought that she would take this path
for him.
"Alright, you can go out now."
Jayson left, not disturbing Skylar anymore.
However, as soon as Jayson returned to his seat, a phone call came from the reception. The voice on
the other end was trembling, "Assistant Lowell, there is a letter to the president, and the sender is..."
"Who?" He asked.
"It's Coralie."
Just now, a postman handed a letter to them, and it was from Coralie.
At that time, everyone at the front desk was scared out of their wits. Everyone knew that Coralie was
dead, but about a week after her death, they actually received a letter from her that was addressed to
Skylar!
Jayson frowned and said, "Bring it to me."
The receptionist quickly brought the letter to Jayson.
Jayson took the envelope and felt it with his hands. It was obvious that judging from the thickness of
the letter, there was a card or something similar to one in it.
After confirming the condition of the envelope, Jayson entered Skylar's office again. He handed the
letter to him and retreated.
Skylar looked at the envelope on the table, at the familiar handwriting on it. It was Coralie's
handwriting...
