Chapter 134
You’re Husband and Wife, Not Enemies
Caroline finally turned around and left with Anna, heading to the laboratory.
This kind of humiliation and trampling from David… it wasn’t the last time.
What could I do? For now, I would endure.
Caroline lifted her head and caught a fleeting glimpse of a familiar figure in the distance.
She thought for a moment. That is Andrew. Yes, Andrew! Could it have been Andrew?
In an instant, her thoughts became crystal clear.

He had recently been appointed as the department director, a sudden promotion that everyone knew was connected to his identity and relationship with the Ellison family. Still, no one openly commented–it was a family matter.
Andrew and Caroline had unresolved grudges.
Back when David was bedridden, Andrew had tried to take advantage of her, only to fall right into David’s trap. He was hauled away by David’s bodyguards and had only recently resurfaced. It made sense that he held a grudge.
He was seeking revenge on Caroline,
“Caroline? Caroline!” Anna called her name several times. “What are you looking at?”
“I’m thinking… about who secretly added alcohol to the lotion to frame me and sabotage Caroz’s launch.”
“Mr. Boris will investigate. Once the truth comes out, we’ll be cleared,” Anna said reassuringly.
Caroline’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “I’m just worried that even if they find out who did it, nothing will happen to that person.”
Andrew was under Richard’s protection and carried Ellison blood. Caroline, on the other hand, was an outsider–just the Ellison daughter–in–law.
And for something like this, what could we really do to Andrew?
She would have no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.
At the Vice President’s office, Boris poured a cup of tea for David. “Here, calm down a bit.”
David waved it away.
“How about some coffee? Plain water? Tea, maybe?”
David’s expression was cold and dark. “What about Caroline makes her worth your help?”
“I didn’t help her,” Boris replied. “I treat every employee fairly, openly, and justly.”
David glanced at the cup of tea, then at Boris. He looked like he was considering dumping the tea on Boris’s
face.

can see it–Caroline is clearly being set up this time.”
“So what?”
David’s tone was laced with sarcasm, his gaze void of emotion.
Boris was taken aback. “You know she’s innocent, and you still treated her that way?”
“She deserves it.”

“Come on, you two are husband and wife, not enemies,” Boris said with a smirk. “What happened? Another fight?”
“Stick to the issue. If not, I’m leaving.”
David made a show of getting up, but Boris quickly pushed him back into his seat.
“Alright, alright. Let’s talk about the issue. Today’s incident isn’t trivial, but it’s not catastrophic either. You have a good idea who’s behind it, don’t you?”
“Andrew.”
David’s response was immediate, showing he had suspected it all along.
“Exactly. I think it’s him too,” Boris nodded. “This stunt has already shaken everyone’s confidence in Caroz’s launch. While it hasn’t caused financial losses yet, what about next time? Or the time after that? Who knows what kind of trouble Andrew might stir up? He needs a lesson to keep him in line.”
David spoke lazily. “I’ve already taken care of it.”
“Oh, that was quick!”
“Did you think I’d waste time like you, dragging me here to babble endlessly?”
David stood, his suit jacket falling into place with effortless elegance, exuding his usual aristocratic air. Without another word, he strode toward the door.
