Chapter 403
After Skylar helped Coralie with the documents, he carried her to their bed in the master bedroom. He
changed her clothes, covered her with a blanket, and then went to sleep.
The next day.
When Coralie woke up and saw that she was sleeping on the bed, she recalled that she fell asleep in
the study room the night before.
She ran downstairs and asked Skylar, who was already awake and who was watching the news, "Did
you carry me to the bedroom?"
"Yeah."
Skylar continued to watch the TV as he did not think that it was a big deal.
However, Coralie was a little nervous. "Next time, just wake me up. I will feel bad if you injured your
legs again because of me."
As she spoke, she went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him.
After she sent Skylar off, Coralie went back to the study room to continue the translation assignment.
It only took her two days to translate three documents. After Skylar had checked them, she sent them
to Luke via email.
She received a call from Luke immediately after she sent the documents to him. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"Coralie, did you translate those documents yourself?"
"Yeah."
In fact, Coralie was a little nervous when she heard Luke's question. She was not sure why he had
asked that question, nor did she dare to say that an expert helped her. If anything went wrong, it would
cause trouble for Skylar.
"Good job!"
Luke was in a good mood after hearing what she said.
"Really?"
"Of course! To be honest, one of the documents was more difficult to translate. I gave it to you because
I wanted to see your level. I did not expect that not only were there no mistakes in your translation, but
you also managed to translate a few ambiguous words accurately. It was more accurate than other
professionals."
Luke babbled excitedly over the phone.
Coralie knew that he was talking about the document she translated on the first night. She did feel that
the document was more difficult and was unsure of many words. She only dared to submit the
documents after Skylar had taken a look.
"Actually..." Coralie didn't dare to take the credit herself. "After I translated the documents, I asked my
husband for help to check them. His French is better than mine and he corrected some mistakes for
me."
Coralie said.
"Is that so? What's your husband working as? His French is excellent. Would he be interested to work
in our company?"
After Luke heard about it, he realized that there was indeed an expert helping Coralie.
In reality, there were quite a few people who were good at French, but they needed high-level talents.
As the company's boss, he certainly wouldn't let go of this opportunity to hunt for good talents.
"Ah? He... He has a great job now. He does not want to change his job."
Coralie felt a little awkward. She did not expect that Luke wanted to hire Skylar.
"Really? You can let him know that we pay well here and the working time is flexible. He can also go on
holiday when things are not so busy. It's definitely better than those foreign companies. He can also
choose to do part-time work. We will not mistreat him in terms of salary."
Luke did not know that Coralie's husband was the president of Skyton Corporation. In his opinion, as
Skylar's French was great, he must be a senior executive of a company with an annual salary of
millions.
Added with his annual bonus, it was certainly a huge amount of money. He knew that it would be
difficult to hunt for such a person, but he still wanted to give it a try.
"Okay, I will tell him."
Coralie brushed it off.
"Okay, I will transfer the translation fee to your bank account. As mentioned before, each document is
350 dollars and the total for three documents is 1,050 dollars."
Before he transferred the payment, Luke informed Coralie of the fees again.
"Yes, that's right. Thank you, Mr. Miles."
When Coralie heard about the salary, she was extremely excited.
Although 1,050 dollars was not much, it was an immediate payment. It took her only three days to earn
1,000 dollars, which was much faster than working in a company.
After a while, she received a notification about the payment transfer on her phone.
Usually, Skylar would forcefully give her some money to spend. Coralie did not bother much about
money but it was different when she earned them herself.
The first thing she did after she received the money was to call Xenia.
"Xenia, I received my first salary. When are we going for a meal?"
As the job was introduced by Xenia, she was definitely Coralie's first priority.
However, on the other side of the phone, Xenia sounded as though she was not fully awake yet.
"Coralie, I'm quite busy recently, thus I'm not free to have dinner with you. You can eat by yourself.
Regarding the meal you owe me, we can have it next year."
"Are you alright?"
Coralie thought that Xenia sounded sick when she heard her voice.
"I'm alright, just a little tired," Xenia sighed.
"Tired?"
"Alas..." After Xenia heard Coralie's question, she let out a deep sigh. "I'm a young woman who doesn't
have any ambitions and then came to regret it. Harvey's mother said that my back was hunched and I
have no charisma. She asked me to practice ballet. Do you think I can practice ballet at my age? What
a joke!"
Xenia sniffed back a tear as she spoke.
"Hunched back? I don't think so... And you need to do the split in ballet, right? If we do not have the
foundation, we can't do it."
Coralie was a little surprised.
"Yes! I went to the lessons for the first time yesterday and the whole practice room could hear me
screaming loudly!"
"Why don't you try yoga instead? It could also adjust your posture."
"I mentioned it but his mother does not agree. She said yoga was not orthodox and insisted on ballet!"
Xenia laid on her bed and looked at the clock. "Oh, I can't talk further, I'm going to rest for a while. I
need to attend the second ballet lesson later."
After she hung up, Coralie realized that every family had its own problems.
In the past, she thought that Xenia came from such a prominent family. No matter who she married, his
parents would support them unconditionally. It did not seem to be the case now.
Well, now that Xenia was not available, she sent a text message to Skylar.
"Skylar, I received my salary today. Can I treat you to a meal?"
"No, you can't."
Skylar immediately replied with a message.
Coralie wanted to ask him why. Before she could finish typing, Skylar called her.
"Why not?"
Coralie picked up the phone and asked.
"To celebrate the success of my wife's first assignment, I would like to invite you to dinner instead.
Would you be willing to join me?"
Skylar turned it around.
"No! I have not treated you to a meal before. I know you are rich. Can't you just let me treat you to a
meal for once to show my gratitude?"
Coralie protested. She knew that Skylar did not care about her pitiful salary, but she just wanted to treat
him to a meal with her hard-earned money.
Or, a present would be good as well.
"Okay, wait for me at home tonight. I'll pick you up after work."
Skylar thought that Coralie was upset, thus he immediately stopped insisting.
"Okay. I'll wait for you at home."
Seeing that the man had agreed, Coralie was relieved.
That night, Coralie chose a middle- scaled restaurant according to the range of budget from her
translation salary. She also considered Skylar's social status.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, they saw two men and two women in front. A group of four
people.
Among them was a young woman wearing a beautiful long dress and 8cm high stiletto heels, but...
She limped as she walked.
