Chapter 229


    "My child is sick, he is in dire need of the cord blood!"


    Coralie was anxious. As a mother, she couldn''t just watch her child suffer like this.


    She didn''t expect that after she had obtained Skr Hond''s sperm, a problem would arise on her


    side.


    "I know, Miss Chariott. President Lowell and the others have told me about your situation. We''ll


    definitely carry it out for you if everything is okay."


    However, they were only responsible for the IVF. There was nothing they could do if the egg was


    abnormal.


    "Then..."


    Coralie was disheartened.


    She stood there and her mind was nk.


    "Miss Chariott, since this n is not going to work, let''s do a bone marrow test as soon as possible and


    think of other ways."


    The doctor could only suggest this.


    After all, there were only a few ways to cure leukaemia.


    "I see."


    Coralie felt wretched. The doctor said that the best cure was by using the cord blood, and bone marrow


    transnt was only second to that.


    On her way back, she made a detour to a familiar cake shop and bought Hendric a chocte cake.


    Although she liked strawberry cake, Hendric loved chocte ones.


    Coralie thought about it for a while, but she didn''t buy one for herself.


    While Coralie was queueing for the cakes, Skr''s car happened to pass by the shop.


    He also knew this ce. He knew that Coralie was fond of their strawberry cakes, so he couldn''t help


    looking in that direction. At a nce, he caught a very familiar figure.


    "Stop!"


    Skr shouted. Before the car was properly parked at the side, Skr had already rushed out of the


    car.


    However, he found that Coralie was neither in the queue nor was she in the crowd of people.


    At this time, a woman with long ck hair also got out of the car. She was Sabe Jakeman, the


    daughter of the head of the Commercial Union. ording to the TV, she was the woman who was


    always seen together with Skr.


    Sabe looked at Skr who stood there in a daze, then she nced at the cake shop. She couldn''t


    help but ask, "President Hond, what''s wrong?"


    "Nothing. My eyes yed tricks on me."


    While Skr was talking, he was still scanning the people around him.


    He felt that he had seen the back of a person who looked like Coralie just now.


    However, how could a dead persone back to life? Was the dream he had two nights ago so real


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    that he had an illusion?


    When Skr got in the car, Sabe said, "President Hond, there will be an auction tomorrow. My


    father likes one of the oil paintings. He wants me to bid for it tomorrow. Can you go with me if you are


    free?"


    Sabe looked at Skr with anticipation in her eyes.


    Skr looked at the woman in front of him. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay."


    "Thank you."


    Sabe said as she smiled lightly.


    Sabe was not a staff member at Skyton Corporation, but herpany was very close to Skyton


    Corporation. Besides, her home was on Skr''s way home too, so naturally she woulde to


    "disturb" Skr every day.


    After Sabe got out of the car, Jayson Lowell, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said, "President


    Hond, Miss Jakeman''s personality seems to have taken a turn from before."


    "Is that so?"


    Skr looked out of the window, he didn''t care too much about it.


    "Yes, she seems to know what happened to you, and she is trying to imitate..."


    Jayson didn''t finish his words. When he saw Skr''s glum face from the rearview mirror, he


    immediately tightened his lips.


    From the time Sabe appeared until now, he had witnessed her changes too, even when he was just


    Skr''s assistant.


    In the beginning, Sabe knew Skr from their cooperation in a government project. At that time, she


    was an unreasonable youngdy who was somewhat simr to his mother, Lillian Ford in certain


    aspects. Skr disliked her back then.


    However, one day, she changedpletely, and that elicited Skr''s change of attitude towards her.


    Until recently, Sabe''s words and actions were more and more like Coralie''s, which made Jayson feel


    that it was necessary to remind Skr about this.


    "It is just because of the project. When it is finished, I won''t drive her home anymore."


    Skr knew what Jayson was thinking, so he exined himself.


    "President Hond, she has passed away..." Jayson said.


    "Jayson, you''re talking too much."


    How could Skr not understand what Jayson said? Nheless, he found that he couldn''t get over


    Coralie at all.


    Especially the night before yesterday, he even dreamed of doing that with Coralie... That dream was so


    real that Skr couldn''t even believe that it was but a mere dream.


    ......


    When Skr arrived home, he walked into the empty house and went straight to the study room.


    The table he bought for Coralie three years ago stayed untouched on the opposite side of his desk.


    There were servants cleaning it every week, so it was without a speck of dust even until now.


    "Baby, you''re my only one..."


    As soon as Skr turned on hisputer, his phone rang.


    He took a look at it and found that it was from Timothy and he picked it up.


    "Boss, my father asked me to bring you the drawing of your project with hispany. He told me the


    day before yesterday but I forgot it. Tell me where you are and I''ll bring it to you."


    When the phone was connected, Timothy said in one breath.


    "Bring it to me tomorrow, I''m already home," he replied.


    "No, no, no! My dad has just asked me, and I said I''ve already given it to you. Please, let me bring it to


    you. Otherwise, he will definitely kill me when he finds the thing still at home."


    Timothy knew that Skr wanted to hang up the phone, so he said quickly.


    Skr had no choice but to say, "I''m at home. Come here yourself."


    "Okay!"


    Timothy replied after Skr gave his permission. He quickly grabbed the drawing and drove the car to


    Skr''s house.


    It took only more than half an hour.


    When Skr opened the door and Timothy handed him the file, he saw that Skr was about to close


    the door. He hastened to say, "Brother, don''t do that. I''vee all the way here. Why don''t you invite


    me in for a cup of coffee?"


    "Did I ask you toe here?"


    Although Skr didn''t close the door, he still walked upstairs. He had a mountain of tasks waiting for


    him to deal with.


    "Yes, yes, you didn''t. I thought I wanted to give it to you after leaving the club that day, but you stayed


    the night. What can I do about it?"


    Timothy was a cheeky man, so whatever Skr said wouldn''t matter to him.


    "The coffee machine is in the kitchen; make yourself one. I still have work to do."


    After saying that, Skr went upstairs alone.


    Timothy went to the kitchen and made himself a cup of coffee. After taking a few sips, he walked


    around the living room before he went upstairs to the study room.


    Seeing that Skr was working in front of theputer, he was about to sit on Coralie''s seat when all


    of a sudden...


    "Stand up!"


    Skr ordered.


    Timothy was so scared that he didn''t even manage to touch the chair and quickly got up. He nervously


    looked at the seat and then at Skr. "Boss, can''t you let me sit here?"


    "No one can sit there."


    Skr exined with his eyes still fixed to the screen.


    Timothy puckered his lips and walked around in the study room when he spotted a photo on the


    bookcase. It was an old photo, and Skr looked very young in it. When Timothy caught the person


    standing next to Skr, he said casually, "Hey, you know this woman? I met her in the club a few days


    ago."
