Listen to that tone. How sharp and vicious his words are. There’s no way someone like David could have taken. care of her. The butler must have been exaggerating.

“It’s just low blood sugar. I’m not dying. Caroline said. “Don’t worry, I’ll live long enough to keep disappointing you!”

David snorted coldly.

“That’s why I’m going to the office now. The leave you arranged doesn’t count. I can’t let my first day be ruined like this,” she added, biting her lip nervously. Mr Boris seemed to appreciate me before. Will this make him think I’m unreliable?

“No one disobeys me, David said flatly. “You’re staying at the Ellison residence today!

“But-” Before she could finish, the call ended with a sharp click.

Caroline stomped her foot in irritation. Forget it. Determined, she headed toward the door. But as soon as she reached the entrance, the guards stopped her.

“Madam, you’re not allowed to leave.”

“Why?”

“It’s Mr. Ellison’s order.”

Caroline crossed her arms. “And what if I insist?”

The guards hesitated, clearly uncomfortable. “Madam, we’re just following instructions.”

“Then tell him you failed to stop me. I’ll handle the consequences. She pushed forward, but the guards quickly blocked her. Though they didn’t dare lay a hand on her, their retreat left them holding the line.

Caroline realized she couldn’t get past them. Just then, car pulled up nearby. Harper rolled down the window and smiled at her.

“Madam Harper?” Caroline asked, surprised. “What brings you here?”

“Caroline, it’s great to see you home!” Harper said cheerfully. “I brought some things for you and David–a little something to show I care.”

The car stopped by the garden, and the trunk popped open, revealing its contents. It was filled with collagen peptides, marine collagen, ginseng, and beauty products. There were even collagen supplements and oysters to promote vitality.

Harper’s intentions couldn’t have been clearer,

“Caroline, you’re too thin. Women need proper nutrition to maintain their health and beauty. It’ll also make pregnancy easier and less stressful, Harper explained warmly. “David is overworked, always busy. with meetings. J brought him some things too.”

Caroline forced a laugh. “Haha… sure. With David’s enery, he might overdo it and get a nosebleed instead!

grandmother is up to you.”

“Madam Harper-”

Harper frowned playfully. “Still calling me that? Didn’t tell you to change it?”

“Mom.”

“Ah!” Harper beamed.

To Harper, Caroline wasn’t just a daughter–in–law but family–someone she cherished deeply.

Finished

Caroline saw Harper as a mother figure, too. Their bond, formed over years at the orphanage, ran deeper than anything she had with Samantha.

But Caroline couldn’t give David children. He would never let her carry the Ellison bloodline. Harper’s hopes were bound to be dashed.

Caroline wanted to open up to Harper, just like she had in the past. But watching Harper busy herself in the kitchen, even making soup, she held back her words.

“Mom, let me help you.”

“Alright.”

Since Harper was visiting. David came home early.

The moment he walked into the dining room, his eyes landed on the dish at the center of the table.

“What is this?”

“A servant replied, “Herbal Rejuvenation Broth.”
