His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 53

"Do you really think that if you go back to Casper, he will let Robin go?"

Eliza's hand froze mid-unlock. She didn't know if Casper would keep his promise, but she had no other options.

Facing Eliza's silence, Zach pressed his large hand against the door and continued, "If you were really that important to him, he wouldn't have sent Robin to Mercy Hospital in the first place. Don't you want to know what Robin went through while he was there?"

Eliza's heart tightened. Of course, she wanted to know. But could she handle it?

"What are you trying to say?" she asked.

"Eliza, leave Casper. Whatever he can give you, I can give you too. You'll still be Mrs. Welton. Your status won't change."

Eliza sneered. "Do you think I care so much about being Mrs. Welton? Zach, save your breath. I'm not going to be of much use to you in your quest to take over the Welton family inheritance."

Zach laughed suddenly, crossing his arms and looking at her with a knowing smirk. "You'd rather go back to someone who doesn’t love you than let me help you? It seems your brother isn't that important to you after all."

Her gaze turned icy. "Say whatever you want."

Right now, Zach was even more dangerous than Casper—an illegitimate son striving for power with methods that were no less ruthless. At least with Casper, she had a legitimate identity.

She wasn't foolish; she knew what was at stake.

...

The next morning, Eliza asked her boss for a day off. She planned to tidy up her home when Chelsea arrived for a chat.

Chelsea chuckled lightly. "What evidence? The one Nova gave him?"

"Yeah."

"Nova, that conniving bitch. She must have been plotting this for a long time, right?"

Nova was no saint. Drugging Robin and collecting some DNA wasn’t difficult. She probably staged a scenario to make it seem she was violated. Casper was a gullible fool, so it all made sense.

"Elle, Casper wants you back home, not to divorce him. What do you wanna do?"

Eliza wanted a divorce.
