Chapter 20 You Married Me on Purpose

For years, Harper lived quietly in the orphanage, nameless and without status.

Even now, she didn’t care about material things. All she wanted was a peaceful life. But David wanted to fight for his mother’s dignity.

If Richard accepted Harper, it meant the entire Ellison family would respect her.

David asked, “What’s your condition?”

“Release Andrew.”

David squinted his eyes.

Richard continued, “He’s no longer a threat to you. He’s been defeated, no longer capable of causing trouble. But he’s still my grandson, and I can’t watch him rot in prison. As for his mother… you can handle her as you see fit.”

Harper and Andrew’s mother had bad blood between them, but that was a long time ago. So, Richard was only able to save Andrew.

“Think about it,” the old man said, patting his shoulder. The Ellison family and Ellison Group are already yours.”

David’s thin lips moved. “Fine.”

He agreed.

His mother had endured too much pain, ridicule, and rejection in her life. Now it was time for her to live in comfort and dignity. Andrew was just a minor issue. Letting him go didn’t matter.

But…

David glanced sideways. Harper was chatting warmly with Caroline, and his heart sank.

This was the real headache.

With Harper’s support, Caroline would only grow bolder and more impossible to deal with.

As they left the Ellison residence, Harper didn’t forget to remind him, “David, be good to Caroline, you hear me? Don’t just bury yourself in work. Spend time with her, I want a grandchild soon!”

David said nothing.

Harper noticed and gave him a light smack. Only then did he reluctantly mutter, “Got it.“.

The car rolled away slowly.

The air around David seemed to freeze, his expression colder than ice.

“You’ve really outdone yourself, Caroline,” he said coldly.

“What did I do now?” she asked, baffled.

“Don’t play dumb.” His hand shot out, grabbing her wrist and yanking her toward him. “So this was your plan all along to marry me on purpose!”

Caroline stared at him, confused. “What are you talking about?”

“Don’t act innocent,” he sneered. “First, you got close to my mother at the orphanage to win her trust. Then, when Grandpa arranged my marriage, you stepped in and became my wife. You’ve been scheming all along, haven’t you?”

Caroline’s jaw dropped. Who did he think he was? So full of himself! Did he think I’d been secretly in love with him for years?

Before she could respond, David pushed her away hard “Fine. I’ll make sure you understand the consequences of playing games with me.”

Her head hit the car window with a dull thud. This man clearly didn’t know the meaning of “care” or “gentle.”

David’s frosty gaze landed on her, filled with disdain.

Once he found the woman from that night, Caroline would mean nothing to him.

David stepped into the building of Ellison Group. Everywhere he went, employees greeted him with respect. “Good morning, Mr. David.”

Everyone knew their new CEO was decisive, ruthless, and obsessively focused on his work.

“Mr. David,” h

assistant, William, said as he followed closely, “the Brooks family has been waiting in the conference room since this morning.”

David halted, then immediately turned and headed for the conference room without hesitation.

It seemed Matthew was finally ready to confess what happened that night.
