Chapter 166


    "What is it?"


    Skr Hond reached out to open the box.


    "I know that you''re not short of anything, but I bought it because it''s nice. I don''t know if you would like


    it or not, but now that I have already bought it, I suppose that it wouldn''t matter anymore."


    When Skr was unwrapping the gift, Coralie was much more nervous than he was. She lowered her


    head and murmured.


    It seemed that she was trying to convince herself instead of saying those words to Skr.


    Her sense of inferiority caused her to worry that her gift would be disliked.


    Skr looked at the pair of cufflinks. The design was simple, which suited him. Then, he turned around


    and held Coralie''s face. He kissed her gently and said, "I like it very much. Thank you."


    Coralie Chariott breathed a sigh of relief.


    "Actually, I have something to tell you. However, after discussing with Xenia, I''m a little disheartened


    about it."


    Coralie blushed from the kiss, but she decided to tell him the important thing first.


    After all, it would not be appropriate to talk about it if the night were to turn a little intimate after.


    "Well, go ahead then."


    Skr started the car and drove towards Golden Town.


    "Actually, your father came to me and said that he wanted to transfer me to B City..."


    "Reject his offer."


    Before Coralie could even finish her words, Skr had interrupted her.


    "Listen to me first," Coralie exined, "Skr, I don''t want you to work alone in our rtionship. Your


    father said that if I would be able topete with Valerie if I could be a CFO in a few years... But I


    asked Xenia earlier and she said that it''s impossible for anyone to be a CFO in such a short time."


    After listening to Coralie''s words, Skr knew what his father''s intentions were.


    He drove the car with a solemn expression, "Of course he knows the time that it would take for an


    ountant to be a CFO. He just wants to keep us apart. After all, he has always believed that


    love would fade away with time."


    "Would love fade away with time?"


    Coralie lowered her head and held her mobile phone in her hand.


    In fact, she agreed with the statement. In the years that she and Skr were separated, they had


    be strangers inadvertently. Skr had then be a figure that was engraved in Coralie''s


    memory.


    She tried to cast everything aside, thinking that it would be buried away.


    "No," Skr replied with certainty, "I thought that it would, but when I saw you at the gate of the Civil


    Affairs Bureaust year, I knew that I was just lying to myself."


    Coralie did not speak. Skr continued, "I have been separated from you for five years. How much


    longer do you want me to be apart from you?"


    "I don''t want to..." Coralie shook her head, "I don''t want to be separated from you, but I don''t know what


    I should do to deserve the title of Mrs. Hond..."


    "You deserve it as long as I approve of you. Mrs. Hond''s position will always belong to you. I''m going


    to a party in a few days. Come with me."


    "Okay..."


    Coralie always listened to Skr.


    She had initially nned to go to B City to start over again and to finally return as a sessful person.


    However, after speaking with Skr, she realized that she wanted to stay with him more.


    ......


    When the car arrived at the gate of the house,


    Coralie stood in front of the door and looked at the fingerprint door lock. After thinking for a while, she


    said, "My fingerprints have been erased."


    "Erased?"


    Skr was stunned. He had seen Coralie using the ess card before and thought that she was not


    used to the fingerprint door lock.


    "Well, it''s about this timest year."


    "About this timest year?"


    Skr frowned. If he wasn''t mistaken, it was when Valerie returned to the country. Coralie didn''te


    back that day. After thinking for a while, he grabbed Coralie''s hand and asked, "Did youe back that


    night?"


    "That night?"


    Coralie frowned. She was not sure if Skr was referring to the same day that she had in her mind.


    "That night, I thought I heard the sound of the door after calling you..."


    Skr said while he set the fingerprints on the door lock for Coralie.


    "Well, I was here, but I realized that the door lock had been changed, and I thought..."


    "Don''t assume anything."


    After setting up the fingerprints for her, Skr opened the door and carried her in.


    The house was still the same as it used to be. Skr held the woman in his arms and bit her lips gently


    as he made his way upstairs.


    "Your wound hasn''t healed yet. I could go upstairs by myself."


    Coralie turned her face aside and spoke. She was concerned about Skr''s wound. He was badly


    injured, so he shouldn''t exert himself.


    "You are so light. What are you afraid of?"


    Regardless of her protest, Skr carried her in his arms and made his way upstairs step by step.


    She could only curl up obediently in Skr''s arms as she didn''t want to add the burden for him. She


    allowed him to hug and kiss her.


    He put her on the bed. It was winter, and they hadn''t taken off their coat yet when they got home. Thus,


    it took them some time to take off their clothes.


    The coats were thrown to the ground.


    A piece of gauze was still stered on Skr''s waist. He ignored it and leaned over to bite the


    woman''s plump lips. Coralie looked away and pretended to be angry. She then asked, "You and Valerie


    slept in this room before. Where did you sleep?"


    Skr pointed to the sofa next to him, "I slept there. Don''t worry, I''ve thrown away the sheets where


    she had slept on."


    Coralie felt relieved.


    Seeing that he had put so much effort into their rtionship, she couldn''t bring herself to ask more from


    Skr.


    Coralie took the initiative to put her arms around the man''s neck. She kissed him passionately and


    returned his affection.


    Skr kissed her after a long time of separation. It was a long series of unending kisses, and amid the


    kiss, he added a more fascinating confession, "I love you, only you."


    "I love you too."


    Coralie hooked the man''s waist with her legs and her hips cradled him...


    It was a long passionate night.


    ......

    The next morning.


    Perhaps absence really made the heart grow fonder, Skr and Coralie didn''t stop until it waste at


    night.


    Coralie was still sleepy, but when she hugged Skr next to her, she realized that the dry bandage had


    be wet...


    She opened her eyes and saw that the man''s bandage had beenpletely stained with blood!


    Coralie was stupefied, "Skr!"


    The man''s face and thin lips were slightly pale. When he saw that Coralie was awake, he said, "Don''t


    worry. I have already called Harvey. Put on your clothes."


    Coralie was angry and distressed, "Did you, did you already know that your wound was torn open?"


    As soon as she put on her clothes, she heard the sound of an ambnceing from below. Not long


    after, Harvey Felton and two doctors entered the bedroom.
