Chapter 157 Toast to All of Them

To Caroline, it seemed unimaginable that he could be so gentle with her, let alone care about her thoughts and preferences.

She couldn’t understand his motives for holding her like this.

Caroline realized she couldn’t read the man before her at all.

“It’s fine,” Caroline responded, giving a measured, neutral reply.

Upon hearing this, David turned to the middle–aged man who had spoken earlier. “It seems your tea is lacking something. She didn’t quite like it.”

The man awkwardly scratched his head. “Well…”

“If she liked it, you could send it over tomorrow,” David said with a light chuckle. “Such a pity.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, the room understood immediately.

This woman was clearly favored.

However, none of the people in the room had seen her before. They didn’t know whether she was David’s new lover or just another mistress.

David had never been involved in any scandals, and there had been no unfamiliar women by his side. The only time he’d made news was when he got married. But after that, the so–called Mrs. Ellison disappeared( from the public entirely.

Now that David was running Ellison Group, thriving with wealth and power, no longer under the control of the Ellison family, it seemed like his true nature was starting to show.

They thought of women as nothing more than fleeting pleasures, something to indulge in. After all, David was no different from other men.

Since David was so invested in this woman, they thought it would be wise to flatter her.

“And who is this beautiful lday?” someone asked. “Mr. Ellison, we haven’t seen you bring her out before.”

David replied, “Well, you’re seeing her today.”

“She’s incredibly beautiful, with a great figure. Mr. Ellison, you’re lucky.”

“Is that so?” David raised an eyebrow. “Do you all think she’s beautiful?”

Everyone in the room, including Caroline, was puzzled by David’s response.

No one dared to speak up.

David gently lifted Caroline’s chin. “They’re complimenting you. Did you hear them?”

“I heard.”

He chuckled, then suddenly pulled her suit jacket off her shoulders, casually draping it over the arm of a

Caroline, caught off guard, didn’t have time to corself.

Her graceful figure was fully exposed.

“Your figure is impressive. They could see that even through the jacket,” David remarked. “You all have good eyes.”

“Well, Mr. Ellison, of course, your woman wouldn’t be anything less,” someone chimed in.

“Exactly. She’s even more beautiful than those actresses

“Mr. Ellison, no wonder you keep her close. You couldn’t bear to be without her.”

As they spoke, someone approached with a glass of wine, preparing to toast.

“I don’t drink,” David said lazily. “But she can drink for me.”

He then pushed Caroline aside, not forgetting to slap her shapely behind. “Go ahead, toast to all of them.”

This was the nature of men.

One moment, they were affectionate and caring, as if she was their most precious possession.

The next, they could turn cold and detached, tossing her aside like an object.

At that moment, Caroline truly understood.

Yes, this was David. The same man she knew remained unchanged.

He had brought her here to serve drinks. All the previous tenderness was just his way of toying with her.

Now, he was ready to make her suffer.

Why can’t he just be direct for once? What’s with all the fake affection, dragging it on like this? Is he enjoying this?
