Chapter 331 Did I Say I Was Leaving Tonight?

David pondered. Had she heard it all?

His heartfelt confession, his solemn promise–did she know?

Caroline shook her head. “I didn’t hear anything.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes.”

David stared at her intently, his gaze shifting through countless emotions.

Caroline was nervous, but she forced herself to remain calm.

Just play dumb. Play dumb. She kept repeating to herself.

Because those words, his promises–meant nothing.

Even if she confronted David right now and asked whether he still intended to let her go, he would deny it without hesitation.

David’s promises only held weight when he thought she was dead.

Now that she was standing here, alive and well… those words were nothing more than empty air. She could listen, but she absolutely couldn’t take them to heart.

She would never die. For the sake of her child, she had to live. She was an orphan–she would never allow her child to suffer the same fate.

Suddenly, David curved his lips into a smirk and leaned in close to her ear. His voice was low and tempting. “Caroline, if you did hear me… everything I said will come true.”

Her heart trembled.
