Sold To a Handsome Trillionaire (Caroline and David)

Chapter 86 Anything about my wife is big deal

Caroline asked, "How expensive can an aloe vera plant be?"

No matter how expensive, it'd only cost a few hundred dollars.

"Three thousand!" the supervisor snapped. "It's a rare and expensive variety, that I had someone bring back from overseas. And you... you ruined it!"

Caroline hadn't expected the small aloe vera plant to cost thousands.

But this price... she could afford.

"Sorry, I used it for an experiment to extract high concentration aloe vera juice," Caroline answer. "It was my mistake. I'll transfer the money to you right now."

The supervisor scoffed. "What do I need the money for You have to compensate me with a pot of exactly the same aloe vera!"

This is a tough one. Where am I supposed to find an identical one?

After a moment of thought, she agreed. "Alright. I'll figure something out. I might be able to find one, but you'll have to wait..."

"Time is money!" The supervisor wouldn't let up. "You'd better have it to me by the end of tomorrow, or this isn't over!"

This isn't just difficult, it's outright bullying.

Caroline maintaining her composure, said kindly, "Supervisor, I'll do my best, but I can't make any

promises. If I'm a few days late, I hope you'll understand."

She value this job and don't want to fall out with my colleagues or create conflicts, so I try my best to avoid confrontation.

"No way, tomorrow." The supervisor was relentless. "If you're late, you'll pay

double."

Caroline finally understood, the supervisor was blackmailing her.

She asked directly, "How much do you want?"

"Ten thousand dollars!"

Caroline bit her lip.

She wasn't some wealthy heiress. Even though she was married to David, he had never given her a dime.

Ten thousand wasn't an amount she could casually pay out.

She hadn't received her salary yet, and with two children to raise in the future, she tried to save wherever she could in her daily life.

Caroline and the supervisor both turned their heads to see David entering the lab, having just scanned his fingerprint to unlock the door.

He walked straight over to Caroline and helped her up.

"Why are you sitting on the floor?"

"I accidentally fell off the chair."

David raised an eyebrow. "She pushed you, didn't she?"

Of course, nothing escaped his sharp eyes.

But why was he still at the office so late?

"Mr. Ellison!" The supervisor's tone shifted instantly. She was all smiles and deference, nodding and

bowing. "What brings you here at this hour? It's nearly midnight!"

"Just passing by. I heard the commotion and came to check."

"Oh, I see, I'm terribly sorry for the disturbance, Mr. Ellison. It's just a minor issue, nothing to trouble you with the supervisor said, laughing nervously.

David's expression remained cold. "Yes it's a minor issue, but when it involves my wife, it's a big deal." "Huh?" The supervisor was momentarily confused. "Your wife? But it's just me and Caro..."

Her voice trailed off, and her expression turned to shock.

Caroline was Mrs. Ellison!

David spoke in the same calm tone. "William will transfer ten thousand dollars to you. At the same time,

the severance pay will also be given to you. You don't have to come to work tomorrow."

He decided the supervisor stay or departure in a casual manner.

The supervisor opened her mouth to argue, David glanced at him, "You are courting death by offending my woman! Get out now!"
