You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie)

Skylar observed all of this. He stood on the stairs and he had already guessed what Coralie was holding.

He got off work a little earlier today, and Coralie had asked him to come back earlier. He didn't think much about it and brought Valerie's gift back. Usually, he would receive gifts from Valerie during festive seasons, and he would bring them home and put them aside.

This time, Coralie saw the gift before he could keep it away.

After Coralie threw away her scarf, she felt a little regretful. When she wanted to take it out again, Skylar had already entered the kitchen.

He saw a black garbage bag in the corner, and it could be seen from the shape that the box was inside.

"Didn't you just bring that back from the company? Why did you throw it away?"

In fact, Skylar wanted to know more about Coralie's gift.

Coralie did not know what he was thinking. Her low self-esteem was magnified when she saw Valerie's gift. She shook her head and said, "I'm just throwing away the box." Skylar noticed that she didn't want to admit that it was a gift for him, so he deliberately said, "Really? Isn't it a hindrance to put it here? Shall I take it out and throw it away?"

As he said that, he bent down and wanted to take the garbage bag.

"Don't..." Hearing his words, Coralie's first reaction was to take the garbage bag into her hand and said, "I'll go, I'll go."

After all, there was a scarf in this box. If he took the bag, her lie would be exposed.

"Take out the box and let me have a look."

Skylar found that Coralie had no intention of giving him the gift, so he was naturally dissatisfied.

Initially, he did this to force Coralie to take out the gift, but this stupid woman would rather throw it away than give it to him...

He had no choice but to give an order.

"I said that it's an empty box... Um..."

Before Coralie could finish speaking, he leaned down all of a sudden and placed her body on the kitchen table. He put one hand on the back of her head and kissed her deeply. The scent of coffee from his breath flowed down her throat, and he devoured her mouth.

Facing this sudden kiss, Coralie was shocked. As she was busy dealing with this kiss, she felt that her hands were light. She lowered her head again, and the small box was already in his hands. "Give it back to me."

"This is obviously for me. How dare you throw it away?"

Skylar said and he tore open the black bag. When he was about to open the box, Coralie immediately pressed the box down, lowered her head, and said as she blushed, "I'm sorry, this gift is too shameful compared with Valerie's. Don't open it."

"Why?"

Skylar lowered his head and looked at Coralie's worried and fearful expression. He was a little puzzled.

He did not understand the inferiority in Coralie's heart. In his heart, Coralie's status was obviously higher than Valerie's. But why did she apologize for the gift?

"I... I knitted it myself. Although I bought the best yarn, my skill is limited. There is still a difference between mine and a branded scarf in all aspects."

Coralie was honest and she allowed Skylar to know what she was feeling, so that he would not be curious anymore.

After listening to her words, Skylar finally knew what she was worried about.

He put the box on the kitchen table, and pinched her tiny face with his slender fingers. She raised her head and look at him. His eyes were gentle. When he looked at Coralie, he asked her with a trace of displeasure, "Do I lack money?"

"No."

"Can't I afford that branded scarf?" Skylar demanded.

"Yes, you can..." Coralie muttered.

"Then, what are you concerned about?"

Coralie was stunned by these three questions. She suddenly realized how unnecessary her worries were.

Yes, Skylar did not lack money at all. If he wanted any scarf priced at even thousands of dollars, he could have easily bought ten of them!

He wouldn't despise her gift just because it was inexpensive...

Looking at her relieved expression, Skylar asked her, "Can I see my Christmas present now?"

Coralie held the gift box in her hand obediently and opened it. There was a dark blue scarf inside. Unlike the long scarf given by Valerie, the scarf she made was shorter and it could be worn under his coat. He would not look bloated.

"That's it... I made it myself. It's very ordinary."

Although she had thought things through, Coralie was still feeling very insecure.

"It's my gift. I don't need your comment!" Skylar said playfully as he looked at the scarf in the box and ordered Coralie, "Take it out and help me to try it on."

"Huh? Okay..."

Coralie did not expect Skylar to wear this now. She quickly took out the scarf from the box and helped him wrap it around his neck.

In fact, this scarf was very beautiful. It was very simple and it kept him warm. Fortunately, it suited him.

Skylar didn't look at his image in the mirror. Instead, he put his hands on the table in the kitchen and asked Coralie who was within his range, "Does it look good on me?"

"Yes..."

She nodded.

In fact, Coralie really thought that it looked good on him, and not because the scarf was given by herself.

Skylar looked at her shy expression and asked, "The day after tomorrow is the company's annual dinner. Can I wear it then?" After saying that, he felt that something was wrong and he said again, "Can I wear it every day at work in the future?"

"Every day?"

"Yes, before the weather becomes warm."

Coralie nodded and concealed the joy in her heart, but she still said, "Since I've given it to you, you can do what you like with it. It's your own business when you wear it."

"Yes."

Skylar, who was wearing the scarf, leaned down and put his lips on her side. He asked her, "Are we going to finish what we didn't complete just now?"

After that, without Coralie's consent, Skylar's thin lips moved around her neck and he touched her gently.

"Okay..."

Coralie was extremely shy, but she still said this word.

After saying that, she regretted it, because it seemed that Skylar didn't intend to go upstairs. When Coralie came back just now, she didn't change her uniform. Skylar placed her on the kitchen table with one hand...

"This is the kitchen!"

"Hmm? So?"

The day after tomorrow was the company's annual banquet. Skyton Corporation was a big company, so naturally, the rewards during the annual banquet was particularly generous.

Every department held activities every year. As Joanna was a good singer, the finance department did not prepare any special programs every year. They let Joanna perform on their behalf. The annual banquet was scheduled in the afternoon at the hotel in A city, so the whole company was on holiday that morning. This was the time for everyone to prepare for the banquet.
