He Regretted Kicking Me And Our Babies Away

Chapter 80 Love Fuels Desire

With a swift motion, David untied the belt of Caroline’s robe. It slipped to the floor without a sound.

His bronze skin contrasted sharply with her snowy white complexion, creating a striking visual.

Each touch of his lips left a mark on her skin.

At first, Caroline managed to maintain a calm exterior, but soon she felt something was off.

David seemed serious this time–like he wasn’t going to stop. He seemed intent on taking things further.

Why was he doing this now? Why now? What had changed?

He’d had plenty of chances before to take things further, but he had always stopped. Tonight shouldn’t be any different–should it?

Feeling uncertain, Caroline asked, “Doesn’t love drive the desire to be intimate with someone? You don’t love me, so what’s the point of doing this?”

David’s lips moved back to her ear, his breath hot and uneven. “Don’t you know? Men can separate love from physical desires.”

She challenged him, “Can you, though?”

“Caroline, I’m still just a man.”

“No,” she said firmly. “You’re different. You demand perfection–not just physically, but emotionally too.”

She had always understood this about David. He was a man accustomed to the best of everything, someone who wouldn’t settle for less than what was entirely his and exactly how he wanted it.

If something didn’t meet his standards, he wouldn’t even look at it.

With a cold chuckle, David said, “You’re utterly foolish when it’s time to be smart, but somehow you manage to act clever when it’s least needed!”

He couldn’t deny it–he wasn’t the kind of man who could separate feelings from action.

Love her?The idea was absurd.

“Get out,” he said coldly, releasing her.

Relieved Caroline tightened her robe and left the bathroom

As she stepped away, David’s voice cut through the silence. “And Nash… forget about him.”

“I’m not fantasizing,” Caroline said deliberately. “I just can’t let go of him. But he doesn’t know that–only you do.”

“Bang!”

David’s foot struck the bathroom’s glass door, the sound ringing sharply through the air.

Caroline flinched and quickened her pace, heading to the sofa.

She lay down, closed her eyes, and tried to fall asleep. She didn’t want to risk him losing his temper again once he finished his shower.

Before drifting off, she reached under her pillow and felt the hidden knife.

Good. It was still there.

The sound of water running in the bathroom told her David was still in the shower.

Seizing the moment, Caroline quickly typed out a message to Nash.

“Please help me. Elizabeth kidnapped me, but I can’t find evidence. Can you use your connections to investigate? This is extremely important. Thank you.”

After sending the message, she deleted it immediately.

No trace left behind.

If this had only been about her grudge with Elizabeth, she wouldn’t have reached out to Nash. She wanted nothing to do with him.

But this involved her child.

As the father, Nash had a responsibility to help.

The next day, Caroline worked in the lab wearing her white coat. She was surrounded by chemical materials, struggling to develop a new formula.

The materials were relatively cheap, but the overall cost was still too high.

Was there a way to bring it down further?

Her phone vibrated, breaking her concentration.

She picked it up and saw a message from Nash.
