His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 739

"Mr. Casper was convinced you were gone. He stopped eating and drinking, and I swear, he hasn't stopped crying, no matter who tried to comfort him."

Eliza's heart ached at the thought.

Knowing she had been in an accident must have torn Casper apart. It's unbearable to think that in just one day, you could be separated from the person you love most in the world.

"I need to see him."

When Eliza pushed open the door to Casper's room, she found him in the same spot as always, sitting by the window, staring out at the pouring rain, lost in his thoughts. His legs were crossed, hands resting on them naturally, but there was an indescribable sadness about him.

"Casper," she called softly.

He didn't respond, as if he hadn't heard her at all. This made Eliza's heart sink even more.

She slowly walked up behind him, gently placing her hand on his shoulder. "Casper."

He seemed to sense something then. A faint smile crossed his face, and he slowly closed his eyes. She noticed tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

"Please, don't be sad," she whispered, reaching out to wipe the tears from his face, but he caught her hand in his.

"Is it true that when you miss someone so much, you start seeing things? If that's the case, I'd rather live in this illusion forever..." He pressed his face into her hand, feeling its warmth. "...at least this way, I can pretend you're still here, and I can keep going."

"Elle, we haven't even had our wedding yet. How could you leave me like this? I haven't done all the things I wanted to do for you. How am I supposed to live the rest of my life? How could you leave me behind like that?"

He broke down, sobbing. His tears fell onto the back of her hand, hot and cold at the same time, and it made her heart ache even more.
