Sold To a Handsome Trillionaire
Chapter 323 The Bathwater Turned Red
“You don’t have to do anything. Just lie back and relax–I’ll take care of it.”
Andrew started undressing her.
Elizabeth put up a half–hearted resistance.
She asked, “Tell me, when do you think we’ll finally have a baby?”
Finished
“Soon, soon. Maybe we already did.” Andrew replied. “We’ve been trying for a whole month–it’s impossible that there’s no result. Find a chance to get checked, or I can arrange it for you.”
“Alright. If I’m pregnant…”
Elizabeth smiled seductively, wrapping her arms around Andrew’s neck.
Hmph. If David didn’t cherish her, it didn’t matter. Andrew would love her properly.
The night was deep.
By the time Caroline returned to the Ellison residence, it was already past midnight.
Standing in front of the mirror, she stared at the red wine stain on her dress, memories of the night replaying in her mind.
Her heart ached as if pricked by needles.
Caroline realized she had feelings for David after all… Otherwise, she wouldn’t be this hurt.
He had treated her this way before–worse, even..
But back then, all she felt for him was hatred. She had wanted to kill him, to see him suffer, to drain the life.
from him.
Nothing else had crossed her mind.
And yet now…
Caroline felt pain, disappointment, sadness–an unbearable sorrow that made her want to cry.
She even found herself wondering… Does David love me? If he does, how could he bear to hurt me? Caroline, have you lost your mind?Why couldn’t you just stick to your original resolve? Why did you have to fall for David?
Her thoughts were a mess. Shaking her head to clear them, she turned and walked into the bathroom.
A hot bath. That’s what I need.
She fel
She felt grimy all over, her hair reeking of alcohol–she needed a good wash.
She filled the bathtub, watching the crystal–clear water rise. Then, after a moment’s thought, she took out a bottle of rose essential oil from the cabinet.
A few drops of oil would make the bath even more relaxing.

managed to twist the cap. off.
Just as she did, her hand slipped.
The entire bottle of essential oil tumbled into the tub.
In an instant, the water turned red.
The entire bathroom filled with the rich scent of roses.
Caroline let out a helpless laugh. Tonight really isn’t my night, huh?
Oh well. Might as well enjoy an extravagant rose bath.
Finished
She sank into the tub, closing her eyes as the warm water enveloped her. Gradually, the tension in her body melted away, and her restless mind settled into calm.
The silence, the warmth–it was too soothing.
Without realizing it. Caroline drifted off to sleep.
At that moment, downstairs-
A car pulled up, coming to a smooth stop.
Paul hurried forward. “Mr. Ellison, you’re back!”
David shut the car door with a flick of his wrist and cast a glance toward the master bedroom. His expression darkened.
Paul, ever perceptive, quickly added, “Madam just got home not long ago. She’s probably freshening up right now.”
“Did I ask?”
“Uh…”
Paul wisely shut his mouth.
For the past month, while David had stayed away from the Ellison residence, he had seemed more anxious than Caroline herself.
Yet, Caroline had acted as if nothing was wrong.
Seeing David return now, Paul couldn’t hide his excitement. Mr. Ellison isn’t worried, but the eunuch is in a panic.
David leaned against the car and lit a cigarette, inhaling slowly.
Upstairs, the bedroom light remained on.
Minutes passed. Half an hour. Nothing changed–except that David’s cigarette had long since burned out.
He narrowed his eyes, staring at the master bedroom window.
