Chapter 108
"A sure-fire way to make a woman pregnant?"
On the other side of the phone, Harvey, who was a doctor, furrowed his brows and repeated when he
heard Skr''s indiscreet question.
"Yes," Skr replied curtly.
"First of all, you have to be sure that both you and your wife have no fertility issues. Following that, the
chance of your wife getting pregnant will be higher. However, there are no methods that would
guarantee a 100% sess no matter if it''s through natural conception or vitro fertilization."
Harvey exined.
"What about natural conception?" Skr asked.
Meanwhile, Coralie, who was beside Skr, could not figure out what was on his mind.
She was starting to question whether Skr was nning to get her pregnant and use that as a token
to bargain with his parents.
"The simplest way is to do an ultrasound on a regr basis to check the ovtion period. It will
improve the probability of sess if you try harder during ovtion," Harvey exined.
"I see," Skr replied.
He was holding onto his mobile phone and he seemed a little depressed.
"Skr, don''t be hasty. I heard about your family''s problems from your grandmother, who is staying at
my hospital. I think it''s better for you toe up with a proper n." Harvey could feel that Skr was
being a little strange, thus he advised, "This doesn''t seem like your way of doing things. You''d better
rest and calm your nerves."
Harvey and Skr had known each other for many years.
They were best friends who would keep no secrets from each other but Skr rarely told him about
Coralie.
In fact, Harvey had figured out their rtionship on his own.
After listening to Harvey''s advice, the knuckles on Skr''s hand, which was holding the mobile phone,
turned pale. After a moment of silence, he replied, "I know. I will go to you if I need help."
Following that, he hung up the phone.
Coralie stood beside him and said nothing.
She was a little overwhelmed as she watched Skr, who was so eager, asked Harvey for a solution
on how to get pregnant.
"I don''t think we need to worry too much about the baby."
Coralie beat around the bush as she spoke.
On the other hand, Skr was silent. He realized that his previous behavior was too childish as well.

How did he evene up with a way to use pregnancy to persuade his parents? There should be a
better way to make his parentse around.
"Sorry, I went too far just now," Skr said apologetically.
"I know that you want me to stay and there must be a way to do that," Coralie reassured him.
At this point, Coralie could onlyfort Skr. In fact, she was directing those words to herself as well.
After all, things were currently fine between them but their future seemed bleak.
"Well, leave it to me. I''ll think of a way."
Skr replied and patted Coralie''s arm.
There were no problems that he could not solve in the business world. Therefore, what was so difficult
about love?
It would eventually be resolved.
In the end, the Hond family was the root of all problems and. he was the only one who could solve
them.
......
It was almost Christmas and most of the work waspleted. Therefore, the management of the
that they finished their respective works.
The fiscal year was over and the finance department had little to do.
There were several colleagues who were still around and they were chatting in the office.
Currently, Coralie was the center of attention because she was around and Joanna was not.
"Coralie, I got my hands on a piece of news today. Do you want to hear it?"
A colleague asked.
At the same time, Coralie was texting with Josephine on her mobile phone. It was Christmas and it was
impossible for her to visit Josephine. However, she insisted on buying a present for Josephine''s child.
"What''s the matter? Tell me about it," Coralie replied absent-mindedly.
Recently, Coralie was on good terms with everyone and there was nothing going on.
However, Joanna was not around, thus she did not expect any sort of breaking news.
"Today, I heard from the human resources department that President Hond''s... Friend, I guess. She
seemed to have applied for a job in advance. Not only that, but she will be on equal footing with
Lorraine once she enters thepany," the colleague exined.
Meanwhile, Coralie was transferring some money for Josephine to buy some present for Josephine''s
child. Immediately, her fingers stopped when she heard the news.
"Is that true?"
It was Felicia who asked. Felicia knew the rtionship between Coralie and Skr. Additionally, she
knew how everyone thought that Valerie was Skr''s girlfriend as well.
"Yes. Shepleted her master''s degree in April. Rumor has it that a lot of the foreignpanies
wanted to hire her but she was keen on joining Skyton Corporation." The colleague nced at Coralie
sympathetically and continued, "Everyone can see why she is here."
The truth was everyone realized that Coralie was not a bad colleague. She was low-key, warm-hearted
and she would help out whenever she could.
Therefore, it was natural for them to take her side.
"Well, it''s normal for her to be on equal footing with Lorraine with her qualifications," Coralie replied.
Following that, she snapped back to her senses and continued transferring the money to Josephine for
thetter to buy presents.
In truth, she knew that she was not in the position to ask for more. She should be content that Skr
was good to her.
Yet, she could not force him to cut off all ties with Valerie. Even if Skr agreed to it, Lillian would not
condone.
"s, who cares about Lorraine? We''re worried about you," The colleague pondered for a while and
asked curiously, "Coralie, what''s your rtionship with President Hond? At the previous annual
dinner, someone from the human resources department said that you''re married..."
After all, Joanna was gossiping about it, thus everyone knew the rtionship between Coralie and
Skr. Although they were not very clear about their exact rtionship, all kinds of signs showed that
they were definitely not just ordinary friends.
In the meantime, Felicia stared at Coralie and she was worried about what thetter would say.
"I can''t tell you anything for the time being. I''m sorry," Coralie apologized sincerely.
After all, her marriage with Skr was contractual and nothing was certain after their agreement
expired.
The colleagues nodded their heads as an understanding upon hearing her reply. One of them said,
"We understand. The Hond family forbids you from talking about it, right?"
They knew that Coralie was just a girl from an ordinary family and the Hond family would certainly be
ashamed if she married Skr. That was why the Hond family would not allow her to talk about it.
On the other hand, Coralie did not answer the question but continued texting with Josephine.
In the meantime, Josephine was overjoyed and she nearly cried tears of excitement when she received
500 dors from Coralie.
She thanked Coralie continuously when she spotted the payment amount. "Thank you, Coralie. Are
you free today? I''ll treat you to dinner."
Yet, how could Coralie let Josephine treat her to dinner? She typed, "No need for that. It''s not like I
don''t know about your condition."
"No, I''ll treat you to coffee then. Recently, I made some bracelets at home and sold them online. It''s
doing well and I''ll give you one when I see you."
Josephine insisted.
In the end, Coralie took a half-day leave and met with Josephine over a cup of coffee.
......
In the cafe, Josephine was already waiting for Coralie when thetter arrived.
Following that, Coralie walked over to Josephine''s table and realized that thetter''splexion
seemed much better than before. Coralie asked her smilingly, "You look so much better recently. Did
Andrew start working harder? Are things better between the both of you?"
