Chapter 338
When the two of them were done packing up, Abigail then said to Vera, "You heard Coralie. She said
that her husband had an affair. Who would believe that nonsense?"
"That's right. Who wouldn't fall in love with Skylar?"
"She's really good at acting."
The two of them left with their stuff.
Their purpose that day was to ease the relationship between themselves and Coralie so that they could
ask her for help in the future.
On the way back home, Hendric fell asleep in the car.
Hera looked at Coralie and said, "Alas, those two aunts of yours. I would rather have them not
recognize us as their relatives." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"Forget it, Mom. It's fine as long as we don't keep in contact with them in future."
They had already finished the meal with them. It was useless to say anything else.
......
However, although the day was over, Coralie was more worried about the next day.
She wanted to reject going out for dinner with them which was why she said she would bring Hendric to
visit Skylar.
As she thought about how excited Hendric was, Coralie didn't dare to imagine how disappointed
Hendric would be when he woke up and found out that she was lying to him.
At home.
Coralie put Hendric on the bed and changed him into his pyjamas. She also changed her clothes and
washed her face, then she sat in the living room and video called Skylar.
"Is Hendric asleep?"
Coralie would often call Skylar at this time and Hendric would have already fallen asleep by that hour.
This time, he also assumed that Hendric was already asleep.
"Yes."
Coralie nodded.
She looked at Skylar who was in the video call on her phone screen. It was early in the morning over
there. The golden sunshine was shining on the man's face, making his skin look smoother, removing
the coldness on the man's facial features. He looked very gentle under the sunshine.
"Did you miss me?"
Skylar looked at Coralie, who was staring at him in a daze and asked with a smile.
"Yes..." Coralie nodded again. Her mind was full of doubts about whether she should ask Skylar if she
could go visit him or not. She didn't know what to say at the moment, so she could only ask, "Have you
decided on the surgery's date?"
"Soon."
"Oh..."
Skylar noticed that Coralie's face was full of sorrow, and she looked like she wanted to say something
but there was something holding her back. Knowing that she wanted to speak up, he then asked her,
"Do you have something to tell me?"
After hearing that, Coralie told him about what had happened today, including what she told Hendric,
that they were going to visit him tomorrow.
After she finished her words, she apologized. "I'm sorry. I couldn't think of a good reason at that time so
I told a lie. I didn't expect that Hendric would take it seriously... If it's not convenient for you, I'll just
forget it. I'll take him out to play as an apology."
Skylar had also mentioned before that he didn't want Coralie to go over.
"It doesn't matter. Come over."
Skylar said.
"What?"
"Come."
Coralie didn't expect Skylar to agree to her request so easily and she almost couldn't believe her ears.
After confirming the matter with Skylar, Coralie was so happy that she almost went crazy!
Not only Hendric missed Skylar, but she missed Skylar even more!
She missed him and she wanted to see him. She was worried about him but she had been keeping her
feelings to herself for the past few weeks since she had been separated from Skylar, and she didn't
dare to tell him.
Now that she heard Skylar's approval for them to go over, Coralie said excitedly, "Great, then I'll book
the plane tickets now. Send me your address."
"No, you can pack up tomorrow and just wait at home in the afternoon. I'll ask Jayson to arrange
someone to pick you up from home."
Skylar looked at Coralie as she was filled with happiness when she realized that she could see him
soon. He could see that she missed him dearly.
How could he bear to see her suffer?
"Great, then I'll be able to see you the day after tomorrow, right?"
Coralie was sitting in front of the phone and she really didn't know how to describe her excitement.
"Yes, when you wake up from tomorrow's sleep, I will be in front of you."
Skylar's voice was very gentle. The way he spoke made Coralie almost tear up.
"Do you have anything that you need me to bring over? I'll bring it for you."
Coralie wanted to ask Skylar when the surgery would be at first, how his day was and then tell him
about what had happened recently.
Since she would be able to meet Skylar tomorrow, she suddenly didn't know what to say anymore.
"No need, as long as you're here." Looking at Coralie's sweet and excited appearance, Skylar said
faintly, "Wifey, I miss you too, and I want to see you. I want you..."
"Mhmm... I'll be there tomorrow."
Coralie's face blushed as she replied to his straightforward expression.
Soon, the call ended.
It was time for breakfast on Skylar's side. He got dressed, got into his wheelchair and went to the
laboratory. The doctor did a test for his nervous system and prepared him to be in the best condition for
the surgery.
What Coralie did not know was that the reason why Skylar asked her to come the next day was
because he would undergo the surgery the following week.
If the operation failed, no one knew what his legs would end up like.
If that was the case, he wouldn't have the courage to face Coralie, let alone Hendric.
Hence, it was the best time for them to meet.
......
The next morning, when Hendric woke up, Coralie told him about the good news that they were going
to see Skylar. Hendric was ecstatic!
After lunch, he put on his clothes and then walked back and forth in the living room with his small
suitcase, as he kept asking...
"Mom, why hasn't the car arrived yet?"
"Mom, will Dad's driver forget about us?"
"Mom, why don't we buy the flight tickets on our own?"
In just 20 minutes, he had already repeated his questions three times.
Coralie was helpless. She then looked at her watch and said, "Go take a nap now. When you wake up,
the car will be here."
"But what if I don't wake up when the car arrives?" Hendric looked at Coralie nervously. "Mom, you
won't run away without bringing me along, will you?"
He really missed Skylar a lot and he was really afraid that something would happen.
"Of course not. Daddy allowed me to go over because of you. If I don't bring you along, I can't go as
well."
Coralie tapped Hendric's little nose and said to him jokingly.
Actually, her words were pretty true as well.
If it wasn't for what happened the day before, she wouldn't have mentioned going to visit Skylar. Even if
she did mention it, Skylar wouldn't have agreed to allow them to visit him.
"Alright then. Mom, you cannot lie to me, okay?"
Hendric was not happy with that, but he still listened to Coralie.
Coralie saw him take off his coat while walking, and then he laid on the bed with his small head
drooped.
"Ding Dong."
About five o'clock in the evening, the doorbell rang.
Before Coralie could open the door, Hendric rushed out of the bedroom immediately and shouted, "Is
the car here? Mom, we are going to leave already, right?"
When Coralie opened the door and saw Jayson standing at the door, she said to Hendric, "Yes, go and
change your clothes."
By this time, Coralie had already prepared her luggage.
Hendric ran to the bedroom, put on his clothes, and ran out with his small suitcase. Before leaving, he
did not forget to put on his little sunglasses.
