Chapter 297 Wishing You Many Children and Grandchildren
After all, whether Caroline could leave David or not all depended on Elizabeth’s child!
Elizabeth was even more confused. “But Mr. Ellison said whether I could keep my baby or not depended on
your-
Before she could finish, David suddenly cut her off with a sharp command.
“Enough!”
His voice was so harsh that Elizabeth trembled and fell silent.
Caroline hadn’t caught the full sentence. “Depends on my what? What are you trying to say?”
“Nothing.” David cast her a cold glance. “You can get lost now.”
He didn’t want her to know that he had actually given her the final say over Elizabeth’s child.
But she had already relinquished that right.
She had chosen to let Elizabeth keep the baby. Fine. That was enough. Nothing else mattered.
David had no intention of laying his heart bare before Caroline again, only for her to trample all over it.
She didn’t deserve his sincerity. She didn’t deserve his love.
She was born to be worthless.
“I told you to get lost,” David said. “Are you deaf?”
For a moment, Caroline felt like she had traveled back in time to the beginning of their marriage.
Back then, David had spoken to her the same way–with the same arrogant, condescending tone, looking down on her as if she were nothing more than an insect.
How fitting. After all this time, we’ve come full circle. She thought.
Soon, David would tire of her again. Then, he would turn his attention to Elizabeth, cherishing and protecting her because of the baby.
“I’m leaving now,” Caroline said. “Wishing you and Elizabeth many children and grandchildren.”
David’s posture wavered ever so slightly–so subtle that it was almost imperceptible.
Because her words were exactly what he had expected.
Not a single word was different.
So this was it. She had truly given him her blessing. She had never intended to spend her life with him. That had always been his own foolish fantasy.
Without looking back, Caroline turned and walked out, slamming the door behind her with a loud bang.
She was probably the only person who dared to slam a door in David’s face.

Chapter 297 Wishing You Many Children and Grandchildren
Outside, the onlookers were still gathered, watching in curiosity.
Caroline met their bewildered gazes and said, “Nothing to see here. No one’s dying.”
She knew Elizabeth was only putting on a show for David.
But…
What she didn’t understand was why Samantha had dragged her into the room in the first place.

She hadn’t done anything while she was inside. She hadn’t even been able to help–only thrown out a few sarcastic remarks to irritate Elizabeth.
Thinking back carefully, nothing she had said seemed out of place.
But that unfinished sentence from Elizabeth–the one David had cut off–stuck in her mind.
Elizabeth had said that keeping the baby depended on my… my what?
My opinion? My decision? That couldn’t be right. I have no such power.
If she did have that kind of power, then of course, she would have chosen for Elizabeth to lose the baby.
What woman would willingly let her husband have a child with another woman?
Especially when… she had once cared for David. Once, for just a fleeting moment, she had dreamed of forever with him.
Caroline shook her head. Forget it. No point thinking about it.
She needed to focus on what came next.
Now that Elizabeth was pregnant, she would be even more arrogant and overbearing. David would spoil her
even more.
Back in the hospital room, David spoke again.
“Can you come down now? Caroline made herself clear. Do you still have any doubts?”
Samantha shot Elizabeth a look, signaling that she should quit while she was ahead.
Elizabeth understood. Slowly, hesitantly, she climbed down from the windowsill.
