Chapter 323 The Bathwater Turned Red
âYou donât have to do anything. Just lie back and relaxâIâll take care of it.â
Andrew started undressing her.
Elizabeth put up a halfâhearted resistance.
She asked, âTell me, when do you think weâll finally have a baby?â
Finished
âSoon, soon. Maybe we already did.â Andrew replied. âWeâve been trying for a whole monthâitâs impossible that thereâs no result. Find a chance to get checked, or I can arrange it for you.â
âAlright. If Iâm pregnantâ¦â
Elizabeth smiled seductively, wrapping her arms around Andrewâs neck.
Hmph. If David didnât cherish her, it didnât 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 wouldnât be this hurt.
He had treated her this way beforeâworse, 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 nowâ¦
Caroline felt pain, disappointment, sadnessâan 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 couldnât 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. Thatâs what I need.
She fel
She felt grimy all over, her hair reeking of alcoholâshe needed a good wash.
She filled the bathtub, watching the crystalâclear water rise. Then, after a momentâs 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 isnât 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 warmthâit 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. âMr. Ellison, youâre back!â
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, âMadam just got home not long ago. Sheâs probably freshening up right now.â
âDid I ask?â
âUhâ¦â
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 couldnât hide his excitement. Mr. Ellison isnât 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 changedâexcept that Davidâs cigarette had long since burned out.
He narrowed his eyes, staring at the master bedroom window.
