Sold To a Handsome Trillionaire (Caroline and David) novel Chapter 43

Chapter 43 She’s the Mistress, and You’re the Cheater! 

“Not even a hug? Boris asked, raising an eyebrow. “You’re that stingy? I’m talking about a purely professional, totally innocent gesture of camaraderie.” 

“Get o 

out.” 

Boris shrugged. “Alright, alright. Mrs. Ellison, once you’ve soothed Mr. Ellison’s mood, head to HR to finalize your paperwork. From now on, any work–related matters go through me. I’m your direct supervisor.” 

“Just call me Caroline,” she replied. “Since you hold mean such high regard, Mr. Boris, I’ll give it my all.” 

“Perfect. Boris snapped his fingers, looking relaxed and pleased. 

As he reached the door, he suddenly turned back and asked, “How exactly do you plan to soothe Mr. Ellison? Like what you were doing in the car earlier?” 

Caroline’s face instantly turned beet red. 

So Boris had been the one knocking on the car window and he saw everything! 

She wished she could disappear into the ground, her head practically buried in her chest. 

Soothe him? Yeah right… Just looking at David irritates me. 

After Boris left, Caroline decided she’d better make her own escape. 

Clearing her throat, she said formally, “Mr. Ellison, I’ve got things to do, so I’ll take my leave. This CEO’s office isn’t exactly a place for a lowly R&D employee like me. Don’t want to risk any rumors that could Larnish your reputation.” 

Caroline had no intention of being caught up in any scandals with David. Her sole focus was on her work 

-proving her worth through results and achievements 

Ellison Group was a top–tier company, a great stepping stone for her career. With experience he could work anywhere in the future. 

David leaned casually against his desk, one leg slightly ent, and let out a cold hught 

She wanted to avoid gossipt Fine, but that wasn & her call wake 

What if David said, histone–sharp. Tdecided wall & zyošlo in the po 

POLA She’s the Mistress, and YourE THA ILTHE. 

David raised an eyebrow. “Otherwise?” 

“Otherwise, um…” She racked her brain, her eyes darting around, but nothing came to mind. 

“Mr. Ellison!” A sweet, chirping voice suddenly rang out from the doorway. Elizabeth strutted in, heading straight for David. “I just knew you’d be in your office. I haven’t seen you in days. I missed you so much!” 

Elizabeth’s ability to act coquettish made even Caroline another woman, feel secondhand embarrassment. 

Elizabeth clung to David’s arm, leaning against his shoulder. “I hope I’m not interrupting your work, but I just couldn’t wait to see you. Did you miss me. Mr. Ellison?” 

Then, as if just noticing Caroline, she gasped in mock surprise. “Oh, Caroline, you’re here too!” 

Caroline rolled her eyes. 

Elizabeth had clearly run right past her. There was no way she hadn’t seen her unless she was blind. 

But… 

Perfect! An idea flashed through Caroline’s mind. She picked up where she’d left off. “Otherwise, people- might think she’s the mistress, and you’re the cheating husband!” 

The atmosphere froze. David and Elizabeth’s expressions turned downright ugly. 

It wasn’t false, but it wasn’t exactly pleasant to hear either. 

Caroline didn’t care. She turned on her heel and bolted 

With Elizabeth around, David would definitely be preoccupied. This was her chance to escape! 

“Stop right there!” David’s voice thundered. 

Caroline pretended not to hear, quickening her pace. David moved to follow, but Elizabeth grabbed his arm. “Mr. Ellison…”
