Chapter 290 I Already Promised Elizabeth Not to Pursue It

David didn’t understand what she was talking about.

He had no idea what was inside the box.

“I never instructed the Brooks family to do anything,” he said. “You’re overthinking this.”

Caroline asked, “Then what’s this bank card about? Are you telling me the Brooks family suddenly grew a conscience?”

David frowned slightly. So, they were returning the money. No wonder she is reacting this way.

“Maybe they want to make amends,” David said. “Maybe they’re trying to repair your relationship and hope for your forgiveness.”

Caroline spoke slowly, emphasizing every word. “I will never forgive them.”

The Brooks family had destroyed her life–her marriage, her dignity…

Did they really

think returning the money would erase everything? What a joke.

And of course, they were being calculative about it. They only returned the money they got from selling her

out.

If they were so sincere, why not return the five billion dollars from

the Ellison family’s dowry too? Hah. They’d never part with that. This fake act of remorse was nothing but disgusting.

Caroline handed the box to Paul. “Send it back to the Brooks family. Tell them this isn’t something that can be settled just by giving the money back.”

“This…”

“Fine, if my words mean nothing and I can’t get anyone to listen to me,” Caroline took a deep breath, “then I’ll return it myself!”

She turned and headed for the door.

Just as she was about to step out, David’s voice rang out.

“I already promised Elizabeth that I wouldn’t pursue the past anymore.”

Caroline froze in place.

“There’s no point in going to argue with the Brooks family,” David said. “Since they’ve realized their mistake, why not give them a chance? How long do you want this cycle of revenge to continue?”

She laughed.

The sound echoed clearly in the living room.

“David, you want me to give them a chance?” She turned to face him, her voice sharp. “When I was sold to that hotel, lying helpless on that bed, waiting to be violated—who gave me a chance at salvation? It wasn’t you who was hurt. It wasn’t your life that was ruined. Of course, it’s easy for you to say all this! You say you won’t pursue it, and suddenly everything is supposed to be forgotten? Just like that? While I, the victim, am

David’s eyes lifted slightly. “Even if you pursue it, time won’t rewind. You can’t go back to that night.”

Caroline stared at him, her smile growing bitter.

David loved her, but he didn’t understand her.

He had never truly considered what she had been through, never truly felt her pain.

And in that moment, she finally realized–love alone wasn’t enough.

Even if David loved her forever, it wouldn’t change anything.

Because his love lacked respect and understanding.

David’s love was possessive, domineering, selfish.

He wanted her, he wanted to keep her by his side.

But what she thought, what she felt–he never cared.

He loved her body, but not her soul.

Caroline slowly walked back to the living room, stopping in front of him.

“Not just this,” she said. “You’re letting everything Elizabeth has done slide too, aren’t you?”

David gave a faint nod. “Yes.”

She let out a breath, shaking her head. “Because she’s pregnant. Because carrying your child is her golden ticket. So, David, all the things you told me, all the promises you made… they don’t count anymore, do they?”

He had said he would handle his relationship with Elizabeth.

He had said he would remove every obstacle between them.

And now?

Elizabeth got pregnant, and suddenly, everything changed.

Caroline had already seen it coming the moment she found out Elizabeth was expecting.
