Caroline couldnât read his expression. Uncertainty twisted in her chest, leaving her on edge. She had no. idea what was coming next.
The truth was ourâDavid now knew the child belonged to Nash.
But she didnât believe for a second that Nash had forced the Brooks family to sell her out.
That was just one of Samanthaâs lies.
Yet her belief didnât matter.
What mattered was whether David believed it.
Because if he did, Nash was in grave danger.
David wouldnât let this slide.
âCaroline.â His voice suddenly broke the silence. âHave you made up your mind? Are you keeping the baby
She tightened her fists, carefully thinking through her response before speaking. âI only just found out the child is Nashâs. I thinkâ
âI asked if youâre getting rid of it!â
David snapped, cutting her off before she could continue.
He flicked away his cigarette and turned to face her, his entire presence exuding aggression.
Caroline froze, her breath catching.
âNow that you know the child is Nashâs, does that make you even more reluctant to give it up?â His voice was quiet but edged with accusation. âIs that what this is about?â
She shook her head. âI already told youâI donât care who the father is.â
âBut Nash was the one who had you first, wasnât he? He was the one who took that from you. Donât tell me you didnât feel at least a little relievedâmaybe even a bit grateful?â
âNo,â Caroline answered without hesitation. âDavid, I hate him too.â
She hated that he had saved her, yet refused to set her freeâthat he insisted on having her, yet never took any precautions.
She hated that he offered no future, yet kept appearing in her life, dragging her back into his world.
H not for this child, everything would have been much simpler.
âYou despise him, yet you insist on giving birth to his child?â David took a step closer, looking down at her. âYouâd even risk your life to protect it?â
Caroline lifted her chin, meeting his gaze. âI justâ¦â

Chapter 187 | Hate Nash Too
âYou just want a child. David finished for her. âI told you, Carolineâwe can have one together.â
Hearing it again, Caroline felt a wave of disbelief wash over her.
She murmured, âOur child?â
It sounded too unreal. Too unreal.
âDavid, weâ¦â She let out a bitter chuckle. âHow could we possibly have a child?â
Finished
âAnd why not?â Davidâs voice was sharp. âYou got pregnant by Nash, didnât you? The same could happen. with me.â
David raised his hand, lightly wrapping his fingers around her throat without applying pressure. But with just a slight squeeze, Caroline would be gasping for air
He bent slightly, bringing his gaze level with hers. âOr do you think my child wouldnât be as important as the one youâre carrying now?â
âThatâs not what I mean,â Caroline said, voicing the doubt in her heart. âI just⦠do you really want to have a child with me?â
âOf course.â
Davidâs response was firm, without a moment of hesitation.
âOur engagement has nothing to do with love,â she reminded him. âThereâs no future for us.â
Caroline had never allowed herself to hope for more. Even with Harperâs favor, she knew she could never truly hold onto the position of Mrs. Ellison.
One day, she would leave David, leave the Ellison family, and live a life of solitude.
She blinked, her eyes stinging slightly. âIâve always thought that a child should be more than just a means to continue a bloodline. A child should be bom from love, a symbol of a happy marriage. I know that Iâ¦â
