Chapter 376
Franklin''s father turned his head and looked at him. His expression was slightly angry at first, but it
immediately changed to a smiling face. "Lucille is here."
The woman next to Franklin saw him and greeted, "Nice to meet you, Uncle Moore."
The woman''s voice was sweet and she didn''t look very old.
However, she was obviously not the same model who had gone to the diamond ring auction with
Franklin before.

Thinking about it, Coralie looked sympathetically at the woman.
"Kid, you have to treat Lucille well. Stop fooling around and do not let her down, do you understand?"
Franklin''s father knew his character. Although there were outsiders present, he couldn''t help but advise
Franklin.
"OK, OK," Franklin nodded, but his tone was obviously impatient when he said, "Someone else is
getting engaged, and you are trying to upstage the host?"
Franklin''s rtionship with his father did not look good at first nce.
Garrett also knew that if he stayed there any longer, they would have fought. He could only turn to
Skr and say, "You youngsters have a chat. I''ll go over and have a seat first."
"Sure, Mr. Moore. Your seat is over there."
Skr pointed at a table.
Once Garrett left, Franklin let out a sigh of relief. He smiled and said to Skr, "Let me introduce my
girlfriend to you. This is Lucille Jules."
"Nice to meet both of you, President Hond and Mrs. Hond."
Lucille said softly.
She looked very shy at first nce, as she did not raise her gaze at Skr and Coralie when she
spoke.
Franklin lifted his hand, touched her hair and said, "She''s just like that, timid and not eloquent."
Lucille lowered her head and shook her head desperately when she heard this. "I will try my best to get
used to it."
"What a mismatched couple; a beautiful woman with an undeserving man."
Seeing the pair, Skr spoke decisively.
"Hey!"
Coralie was by his side. She was thinking of the same thing and did not dare say it. However, she did
not expect Skr to be so blunt.
When Franklin heard Skr''s words, he immediately became upset and said, "Uncle, I was willing to
do anything for you back then. Can you not do this?"
"I feel sorry for thisdy."
Skr''s voice was t and calm. He spoke in an ordinary tone, but his words carried criticism.
"No, Mr. Moore treats me well. He is very considerate of my feelings. I''m a timid person, and yet he
does not me me when I don''t speak much."
Lucille lowered her head and spoke softly.
Her voice was so gentle that Coralie had to listen very closely to hear what she was saying.
"Mr. Moore, have you decided to be with Lucille, or are you only acting in front of your father today, and
you''re going to be with another girl after a few days?"
Coralie initially did not want to say anything, but she really thought that Lucille was a finedy.
Just as Skr said, if she married Franklin, they would definitely be a mismatched pair as Franklin
didn''t deserve Lucille at all.
"Oh, Miss Chariott, I''m very sad when you say that to me. Actually, I am very dedicated. You see, I was
crushing on you for many years before, and if it wasn''t for..."
"If you don''t want me to throw you out, you''d better stop this topic."
Before Franklin could finish his sentence, Skr interrupted him.
Coralie was a self-conscious person, and when she saw that Franklin was talking about this matter,
Lucille''s hand, which was holding Franklin''s arm, trembled. She also secretly looked up and peeped at
her.
"Miss Jules, please don''t misunderstand. I met Franklin through Skr, and I have never met him for
more than 3 times."
After Coralie exined, Lucille nodded.
She looked up and said, "Mrs. Hond, you look so beautiful and you are a nice person too. I believe
you and President Hond will definitely be happy together."
"I did not expect you to be so eloquent."
Franklin said as he turned his head to look at Lucille.
"Thank you." Coralie stretched out her hand to grab Lucille''s and said, "If he bullies you in the future,
you should let me know. I''ll ask Skr to teach him a lesson. Skr is his uncle."
"Well, thank you."
Lucille nodded.
Franklin, who was listening at the side, was a little unhappy. "An uncle who is two years older than me
whom I can''t afford to provoke."
For a long time, Franklin resented the fact that Skr was a generation above him.
As Coralie was talking to Lucille, she looked up and saw Josephine.
After informing Skr, she walked over to wee Josephine.
She did not have many friends there that day. Aside from her family members, there were only
Josephine and Xenia.
But now, Xenia was considered a family member and rtive of Skr.
"Josephine."
Coralie waved her hand and greeted Josephine.
Josephine looked at Coralie, who was wearing a red dinner dress and had her hair curled up. She
couldn''t help but exim, "Coralie, you look so beautiful today."
"Thank you. I''m so happy that you''re here."
Coralie hugged Josephine.
Josephine took out a small box from her bag and said, "This is my wedding gift for you. These are the
twotest bracelet designs by ourpany. I want to give them to you before they are on the market."
Coralie opened the box and saw a simple yet elegant rose gold bracelet with an amethyst pendant
hanging on it.
"Josephine, you are working for thispany now? That''s amazing!"
She looked at the brand of the bracelet. It was the most popr jewelry brand recently. Due to its
simple and elegant design with reasonable pricing, it became the favorite of many white-cor workers
looking for affordable luxury products.
"Well, not only that, I have good news to tell you," Josephine said as she stretched out her left hand
and held it in front of Coralie. There was a silver ring on her little finger...
Seeing this, Coralie immediately reacted. "Josephine, are you and Andrew divorced?"
"Yes! In fact, as I think back about it, I was too stupid all those years. Even when you advised me, I
wouldn''t listen to you. I only wanted to give my child aplete family so that he would have a father
and a mother," Josephine said with a saddened expression on her face. "But now I see the truth of the
rtionship between Andrew and me. If the marriage continues, it will only harm Kevin.''1
"It''s great that you finally realized it."
Coralie was truly happy for Josephine. She remembered that Josephine had called her a few years
ago, and she had driven there with Skr to pick her up.
It was so cold that night. Josephine only wore thin pajamas and was crouched beside the bus stop with
Kevin in her arms.
At that time, she finally understood that there were all sorts of marriages, but it was not necessary to
persist in every single one.
"Well, I''m reborn now. My parents help me with Kevin. I am now the director of the product
development department at thepany. Although I am swamped, I feel extremely happy."
Coralie looked at Josephine. She was wearing a pale pink dress with light makeup on. Although there
were wrinkles on her face, she smiled very confidently.
The deste, helpless woman who had tolerated many hardships in a shabby marriage a few years
ago had disappeared.
"Josephine, congrattions on your rebirth."
Coralie stretched out his hand, hugged Josephine, and said it from the bottom of her heart.
