Finished
David was determined to learn just how deep and memorable Caroline and Nashâs bond had been during their university yearsâso meaningful that Caroline seemed unable to fully move past it even now.
As always, William had been meticulous. The information he gathered left no detail out.
From chat transcripts and vacation pictures to intimate photos and handwritten notesâeverything was included.
The more David looked at them, the darker his expression became.
Such a strong bond. Such undeniable affection.
He began flipping through the documents more quickly, but soon he had enough. With a single motion, he sent everything scattering across the floor.
âWhatâs happened now?â Boris asked as he entered, catching sight of the scene. âWhoâs dared to upset Mr. Ellison this time?â
David/shot him a cold look. âAre you so free right now?â
âIâm here to report work, not because Iâm idle. Iâm incredibly busyâvery, very busy.â
âSpeak,â David ordered, leaning back in his chair, his face full of frustration.
Boris walked over and glanced at the photos and papers on the ground, quickly piecing it together. âAh, so youâre upset over something emotionalâ¦â
âWhat did you just say?â
âI said youâre troubled by love,â Boris repeated, drawing out the words. âCaroline and Nashâs relationship is ancient history. Everyone has a past. Why are you so bothered by this? Besides, Nash is engaged, and Caroline is married to you. Thereâs no way they can be together now.â
âAnd if they still care about each other?â
Boris hesitated, then cautiously asked, âEven if they do, what difference does it make? Unless⦠Caroline betrayed you and had an affair?â
Davidâs gaze turned iceâcold, sharp enough to cut through steel.
Cheat on me? Betray my trust? If she tried, Iâd deal with her firstâthen it would be Nashâs turn.
âLet her try,â David said in a frosty tone. âWeâll see what happens.â
âSo, if I understand correctly, Caroline hasnât done anything and hasnât even thought about it, but here you are, doubting her and getting jealous over nothing Boris pointed out. âShe works during the day and is with you at night. Where would she even find the time? She canât be in two places at once.â
Ha. She might be physically here, but her heart? It was still with Nash.
âYouâre so fixated on her past relationships. Are you in love with her?â Boris asked with a grin.

âLove isnât something to hide. If you love her, just admit it. Thereâs nothing wrong with itâitâs perfectly normal to have feelings for someone, especially at your age.â
âEnough,â David snapped.
Love her? What a joke. But why had Caroline questioned me about it last night, and Boris followed up today? What had I done to make them believe I had feelings for her?
Boris wasnât about to let the opportunity to tease David slip by.
âWhen youâre in love with someone, itâs obviousâyou care about her ex, and you start competing with him,â Boris said smugly. âCaroline made a hit product for Newton Group, and now you want her to create an even bigger one, just to prove you matter more to her than Nash does.â
David abruptly stood up. âGet out!â
âBut I havenât even started my report-â
âI said, leave!â
Fine, Boris would go.
But just as he reached the door, he couldnât resist saying, âYouâre this upset because you love Caroline, but she doesnât feel the same way, right?â
