Chapter 263

Chapter 263 Did Your Promise to Marry Me Mean Nothing?

“I had no choice, I could only wait for you outside Ellison Group’s entrance. Luckily, I finally saw you.”

Elizabeth’s entire focus was on David, completely unaware that Caroline was sitting inside the car.

“How’s your health?” she asked worriedly. “You kicked me out last night, and I barely slept. I was so afraid something would happen to you. Mr. Ellison, even if you didn’t want to touch me, you could have at least let me stay and take care of you. How’s your injury? Let me see.”

As she spoke, Elizabeth reached out, intending to remove David’s suit jacket and unbutton his shirt.

But before her fingers even brushed his sleeve, he shoved her hand away–hard.

The force of it sent her staggering backward, nearly knocking her off balance before she steadied herself.

“Elizabeth, you need to know your place, David said coldly. “There are a lot of things I haven’t confronted you about yet–

including last night!”

She had incited Julia, fanned the flames.

And... the Brooks family had tried to sell Caroline’s dignity.

“I was genuinely worried about you, Mr. Ellison.” Elizabeth’s eyes turned red in an instant. The drug was so strong, and you even hurt yourself... How could your body endure that? I wasn’t by your side, and I had no way of knowing what happened to you. I was going out of my mind with worry. I stood outside in this heat, waiting for you. I was nearly on the verge of heatstroke... And this is what I get in return?”

Tears slid down her face at just the right moment. “Mr. Ellison, after everything we’ve been through, after that wonderful night...

and your promise to marry me have you forgotten all of it? Does it mean nothing now?”

She was playing the victim, fishing for sympathy.

But David only felt irritated at the sight of her tears.

He countered, “And what have you been doing all this time? Have you behaved yourself?”

“I” Elizabeth clenched her teeth. “No matter what, Mr. Ellison, that night we-”

Suddenly, Caroline’s voice rang out from inside the car “Which night?”

The car door swung open, and she stepped out, walking straight up to Elizabeth.

She glanced at David before locking eyes with Elizabeth. “If I’m not mistaken, what you just said implies that you and David spent a night together?”

Elizabeth’s face turned pale, her lips losing all color.

You... What are you doing here?” she stammered, visibly shaken. “Were you hiding in the car, cavesdropping?”

David knew she was in the car.

He pressed his lips together, unwilling to see Caroline and Elizabeth face off.

This could easily escalate, Finished “Go on,” Caroline said with a smirk. “I wasn’t finished listening. Elizabeth, that night with David–what happened next?”

There was no way Elizabeth could say it. Caroline absolutely couldn’t find out.

Otherwise, everything would be ruined.

Elizabeth stared at Caroline for a few seconds before something clicked in her mind.

You... You and Mr. Ellison came here in the same car. That means you were together before this. Does that mean last night, you were with him?”

“That’s right,” Caroline said with a nod. “I spent the night with him.”

Elizabeth’s expression twisted with jealousy.

David had kicked her out one moment and called Caroline over the next!

Who he truly cared about was obvious.
