His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 694

"You're still keeping her number?" Eliza was clearly irked. "She just called you, Casper, knowing full well I'm with you. How on earth am I supposed to believe you two haven't been in touch?"

"I really haven't been," he insisted, struggling to convince her. "She just called to try and play matchmaker, introducing a spokesperson opportunity."

Eliza rolled her eyes. "Of course, she's a schemer."

She knew Kate was the kind who had tricks up her sleeve.

"So, did you agree?" She couldn't believe Casper would be that gullible.

Casper paused, thinking it over. "The spokesperson decision needs a team meeting. I can't make the call alone, though I do have veto power."

Eliza couldn't help but chuckle dryly.

She eyed him skeptically. "So, who are you considering for this spokesperson gig?"

"Allysha. She's been making waves with her latest film and snagged a bunch of international awards. If we can hitch our wagon to her star, our new product might just take off."

"So, Kate wants to hook up Welton International with Allysha? Can't Welton land a celeb on its own without playing middleman?"

She was genuinely puzzled.

It seemed like a flimsy excuse for Casper and Kate to meet up.

A weak one at that.

"Look, don't get all riled up. Honestly, it's no big deal if Allysha doesn't end up as our spokesperson. I had no intention of meeting her through this. She's about to marry Daniel, anyway, and I want zero drama."

Despite his reassurances, Eliza's eyes still held doubt.

Sometimes, even if a guy isn't interested, women like Kate, who wear their schemes on their sleeve, aren't easy for a straightforward person like Eliza to handle.
