Sold To a Handsome Trillionaire
Chapter 305 What Kind of Love Triangle Is This?
Boris stepped forward to greet him. âMr. Ellison, what a surprise! What brings you here?â
As he spoke, his eyes darted around, searching for Caroline.
But she was nowhere to be found: Could she have run off the moment she saw David?

Caroline had specifically asked him if David would be attending, and Boris had sworn up and down that David wouldnât come.
This wasnât even a fullâblown Ellison Group celebration. Given Davidâs status, he had absolutely no reason to show up.
And yet.
Boris had been proven wrong.
Not only had David shown upâhe had brought Elizabeth with him.
What kind of love triangle disaster is this?
David withdrew his gaze indifferently.
While others had to search for Caroline, he had spotted her the moment he walked in.
She was wearing a long dress, with makeup that made her look strikingly different from her usual self. Tonight, she was breathtaking.
-David wanted to take another look. Even though he told himself not to, he couldnât help it
She was speaking with Anna, her head tilted slightly as they chatted. Then, she suddenly smiled, blinking playfullyâher expression was bright and lively.
It was a smile David had never seen on her face before.
For a split second, he nearly lost himself.
âMr. Ellison? Mr. Ellison?â Boris called, snapping him back to reality. âYour sudden appearance really caught me off guard.â
David shot him a glance. âDrop the act.â
Beside him, Elizabeth clung to Davidâs arm, standing intimately close. She leaned her head against his shoulder. âMr. Boris, I just wanted to join in on the fun, so I begged Mr. Ellison to bring me along. I hope weâre not causing any trouble?â
Boris cleared his throat. âNot at all.â
But deep down, he knew this was definitely troubleâfor Caroline.
Elizabeth smiled. âThatâs good to hear, Mr. Boris. You go ahead and take care of your business. Iâll just walk around and enjoy the evening. Iâve been cooped up in the hospital for so long, I felt like I was going to rot. Mr. Ellison was sweet enough to bring me out for some fresh air.â

Boris forced a smile. âThen I wonât keep you. This is just a small gathering for the departmentâan excuse for everyone to celebrate.â
âI heard the celebration is for âCarozâ smashing sales records, far exceeding expectations. Itâs a huge success,â Elizabeth said deliberately. âAnd my sister is the lead formulator of the product, right? Thatâs quite the accomplishment.â
âThatâs right. Caroline is the chief formulator. She developed affordable yet effective skincare, which made âCarozâ an instant hit with consumers.â
Elizabeth looked around. âThen where is she? Shouldnât she, the biggest contributor, be here?â
Boris hesitated. âUh⦠not sure. Sheâll be here when we pop the champagne.â
There was no way he was letting Caroline and Elizabeth run into each other. If those two got into a fight, the whole venue might go up in flames.
And what the heck is David thinking, bringing Elizabeth here? What is going on?
Boris distinctly remembered David admitting that he loved Caroline.
Since Elizabeth was present, Boris couldnât ask outright.
Then Elizabeth suddenly said, âNo, I have to find Caroline and properly thank her for everything sheâs done for the company. Sheâs worked so hardâ1, as her little sister, feel for her.â
Borisâs gut told him this was bad news, but he couldnât outright stop Elizabeth. Instead, he threw David a pleading look.
