arolineâs side,
David walked straight to wrapped an arm around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace.
To an outsider, it looked like an affectionate hug, full of love and intimacy.
But Caroline knew the truthâhe just wanted to control her.
She understood everything. This was yet another lost chance to tell Harper the truth.
David spoke again. âMom, Elizabeth isnât feeling well and is hospitalized. Naturally, Caroline and I came to visit her. We both work during the day and donât have time, so we chose to come at night. As for earlier, by side⦠that was just a misunderstanding. I was about to

turn back and find Caroline, but before I could, you appeared. You saw that moment and didnât even give me a chance to explain.â
âRight, Caroline?â
David turned his head slightly and whispered the question in her ear, his tone soft.
His breath tickled her skin, making her ear tingle.
Harper looked skeptical. âIs that true?â
âOf course.â
âThen why was Caroline crying?â

Group as a formulation specialist Caroline has been working hard. Mom, you know she works at Ellison
in the R&D department. A new product just launched, and itâs selling exceptionally well. Sheâs also developing new formulas, so her workload is pretty heavy. But Caroline is very capable and talented. This

If she dared to defy him or pull any reckless stunts, that commission would be as good as gone.
Money. Always money.
David knew how to use it against her.
She thought about the twins growing inside her. About formula, diapers, clothes, toysâ¦
Caroline, endure it.
âRight,â she said with a bright smile, even leaning against Davidâs shoulder. âMom, just like my husband said.â
To disgust David, she deliberately softened her voice, adding extra sweetness to the words âmy husbandâ.
But that wasnât enough.
She tilted her head up and continued, âMy husband is so wonderful. He knew my sister was in the hospital and made time to come visit with me. Honey, having you is my greatest blessing.â
However, she miscalculated.
Not only did David not look disgustedâ¦.
