"I am just blow-drying my hair..."
"1."
Coralie was about to speak when Skylar started counting without mercy.
She paused as she plugged the hair dryer, and her hand was mid-air. She did not know what to do at
that moment. "I'm a grown up, I can blow-dry my..."
"2."
Skylar didn't want to listen to her words at all, and he continued to count.
......
"3."
When he counted to three, Coralie rushed to the bedside and sat next to Skylar. Then, she handed him
the hairdryer with both hands.
Skylar looked at the woman beside him, and she seemed dissatisfied. He asked, "Do you always blow-
dry your own hair?"
"Yes."
"Someone got drunk one day and asked me to blow her hair. She even buried her face here."
With a teasing tone, Skylar pointed to where Coralie had buried her face that day, and he observed her
reaction.
Coralie looked at the area Skylar was pointing at, and her face turned red all of a sudden. "No way.
That's impossible!"
"Impossible? That day, you were very open-minded."
Skylar raised his hand and took a sip from the bottle on the bedside table. Then, he turned around and
pressed Coralie under him. He fed the liquid to Coralie bit by bit through his mouth.
Coralie did not react in time, but when she realized what was happening, she discovered that her
mouth was full of wine.
"Ahem, why are you giving me wine?"
"You will speak the truth when you're drunk."
Skylar took another sip of wine and he wanted to continue to kiss her, but Coralie avoided him.
"I don't want to drink anymore. I don't want to drink anymore."
She knew that she would pass out after drinking alcohol. Passing out was not the point, but she was
really afraid that she would say something strange when she was drunk.
After all, she was not sure how she would act after she got drunk.
"You're not going to drink?"
Skylar swallowed the mouthful of red wine and looked at her mouth. Small droplets of red wine was Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
flowing down from the corner of her mouth.
She looked rather seductive.
"What do you want to hear from me? I'll tell you. You don't have to feed me wine."
Coralie kept coughing.
She believed that at least when she was sober, she could control what she was saying. Once she was
drunk, she wasn't sure what would happen.
"I'm afraid you won't tell the truth."
Skylar looked at Coralie while holding the hair dryer in his hand. He knocked her head with it gently.
"I will tell you the truth. You want to know why I broke up with you back then, right?"
Coralie pouted. She felt helpless and she looked worried.
However, she hadn't thought about what to say to him until now. After all, Lillian Ford was Skylar's
mom. Did she want to tell Skylar that Lillian had scolded Hera Jean and herself?
He noticed that she was trying to say something, but she stopped. He frowned slightly and asked, "Is it
true that there was another man..."
"No! How is that even possible?" Hearing this, Coralie immediately looked at Skylar with dissatisfaction
and protested. "You can accuse me of anything else. However, you can't accuse me of this, absolutely
not."
Coralie knew very well that when she was with someone, she would never betray that person.
Back then, even when Howard Schultz had treated her badly, she would try her best to cooperate with
him, as she hoped to be a good wife.
Looking at Coralie's angry and irritated expression, Skylar felt a little better. He bent down and opened
Coralie's bathrobe gently with one hand. His lips landed on her shoulders, and he asked, "So, why did
you break up with me?"
As long as it was not a change of heart, Skylar was willing to accept any other reasons.
"In the past, I didn't know that you were a rich young master. After I discovered this, I was..."
Coralie thought about the matter for a while and decided to lie to Skylar.
"You..."
"You know, I'm different from you. My family background is ordinary. We are from two different worlds."
When Coralie said this, she looked elsewhere, with a guilty expression.
Skylar was the boss of a company, and he had dealt with many types of people and situations. He
could tell from her expression that something was not right.
Obviously, Coralie was lying and speaking with a guilty conscience.
However, Skylar did not expose her immediately, but he continued to ask, "How did you know about my
family background? On the day of my graduation ceremony, I didn't drive a luxury car, and I didn't bring
anything expensive."
That day was the same as every other day in his daily life.
It was impossible for Coralie to know that he was rich.
Unless someone told her.
"This..."
"Who told you?"
Skylar raised his head. The scent of shampoo on her body wafted to his nose. It was light and
pleasant, and it seemed much nicer than perfume.
He used his fingers to hold her chin, and he forced her to look at him.
"No... I just..."
Coralie didn't expect Skylar to be outside the bathroom just now, so she only wore a bathrobe.
Now that they were so close to each other, her breathing was a little short, and her heart was pounding.
"Okay, then I won't ask you."
He looked at Coralie, and his expression seemed bright. He knew that she had some concerns.
Skylar couldn't figure out what she was worried about.
After all, there were indeed some people in the school who knew of his identity. Moreover, Coralie was
so popular, so it was possible that someone had leaked her this information.
"Okay."
Coralie let out a long sigh of relief. She really didn't want to tell Skylar that Lillian had told her
something back then.
"As long as it's not because of other men, I can accept it."
Skylar leaned over, kissed her wet hair, and then proceeded to move downward.
Although the mystery was not solved, it didn't matter.
As long as Coralie did not fall for another man, he could accept it. However, he was not sure if Coralie's
heart belonged to him right now.
Thinking of what he had said before, Skylar felt a little regretful.
"I'm sorry."
Coralie also hugged Skylar. Although she didn't tell him the truth, at least she had resolved the
misunderstanding slightly, which caused her to feel relaxed.
"No need to apologize."
Skylar held Coralie's waist with both hands and he lifted her body slightly. At this time, his mood was
different from before.
In the past, he had always suspected that Coralie had fallen in love with another man, and he had
carried this resentment with him for so many years.
He kissed every inch of Coralie's skin and said in a hoarse voice, "Let bygones be bygones. Now, I am
going to disinfect you. From now on, you are mine. You belong to me."
He decided not to ask about the past.
Coralie was excited to be treated so gently by him.
She didn't care if Skylar was being sincere or just saying this in the heat of the moment. She chose to
believe his words.
It didn't matter to her, even if they only had ten months.
She was willing to love him deeply in these ten months.
