Chapter 396 Cameron Has Ulterior Motives

David’s expression was unreadable. “You really don’t see it?”

Boris hesitated for a moment but ultimately gave an honest answer. “No, I don’t.”

Finished

He knew how deeply David loved Caroline–an all–consuming, almost obsessive kind of love. To him, she was extraordinary, the most beautiful woman, the one person worth his devotion.

But the rest of the world didn’t necessarily see her that way. Especially not someone like Cameron.

Cameron was no ordinary man–he stood on equal ground with David in both power and influence. With his elite status, immense wealth, and distinguished lineage, the Scott family’s legacy in Albaros ran deeper than the Ellisons, backed by generations of prestige, strategic dominance, and high–society authority.

David leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly against the armrest.

Something wasn’t right about all this. But no one else seemed to notice.

“Forget it.” He exhaled, rubbing his temple. “You wouldn’t get it.”

He admitted that his initial reaction had been impulsive. Seeing Caroline with Cameron had set him off. That’s why he had lost control. That’s why he had acted recklessly.

But now that he had thought it through, the pieces still didn’t fit. Cameron’s visit wasn’t just about work.

Sure, it sounded reasonable–he wanted to meet Caroz’s lead formulator. A simple business request.

But something about it felt off.

David was convinced Cameron had another motive. He just didn’t know what it was yet.

Boris clicked his tongue. “Love makes men so irrational.”

David glanced at him. ““You think I’m overreacting? Making things up? That I’m stirring up trouble for no reason?”

“Honestly? Yeah.”

“Then wait and see.” David’s tone was calm but firm. “Time will prove me right.”

He refused to believe Cameron had no hidden agenda when it came to Caroline. Cameron might be playing it safe now, keeping his intentions hidden.

But eventually, he’d slip up.

David was certain of it.

For now, though, he was the only one who saw through it.

To everyone else, he looked like he was making a big deal out of nothing.

Boris sighed and leaned back. “So, Mr. Ellison, have you told Caroline about this little theory of yours?”

“No.”

“Why not?”

Finished

“She wouldn’t understand,” David said simply. “Besides, this is a matter between men. She doesn’t need to be involved.”

Boris shook his head. “Fine, then answer me this–if Canon returns and specifically requests another meeting with Caroline, what’s your plan? Block it?”

“I’ll go with her.”

“Oh?” Boris raised an eyebrow. “Marking your territory, are we?”

David didn’t flinch. “And?”

“Nothing, nothing. It’s your company, your rules.” Boris stood, stretching lazily. “Fine, I’ll take the blame this time. Next time, Caroline won’t meet any male clients alone. Satisfied?”

David waved a hand, dismissing him.

Boris made it to the door but hesitated.

Something about this whole situation still amused him. With one hand on the doorknob and the other braced against the frame, he turned back with a smirk.

“Tell me, David–should I start keeping my distance from Caroline too? What if I fall for her? Maybe you should keep an eye on me. You never know… I could be the one to steal her away.”

Before he could finish, a file folder flew straight at him.
