His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 137

The next morning dawned bright and clear, with the rain finally stopping. The Welton family was still deep in mourning over Jeffery's passing, and the tension Tristan brought wasn't helping.

Caroline came downstairs and saw Eliza heading out the door. “Off to work? Great, I'll join you.”

“Are you going to Welton International today?”

“Just dropping by.”

Just then, Casper made his way down the stairs. With a laid-back grace, he buttoned his cuffs, exuding an air of casual elegance. He didn't bother greeting anyone as he walked straight out.

Caroline, unsure why he was moody, grabbed her bag. “Let’s get going.”

“Alright.”

Their cars left the Welton estate one after the other. At a crossroads, Casper’s car took a turn.

“Where’s he off to?” Caroline asked Eliza, puzzled.

Eliza knew this route well; another intersection and a left turn would lead to the home she shared with Casper. A bitter feeling welled up inside her. “He might be picking up Nova for work.”

Caroline immediately got it, scoffing, “Someone who never even went to college is working at Welton International? And the CEO is personally picking her up? That's a joke.”

Eliza didn’t know how others laughed about this, but she knew many in the design department saw Nova as the future CEO’s wife and tried to curry favor. With her gaze lowered, she remained silent.

Caroline glanced at her while steering with one hand. “Casper and Nova are like this, and you just let them be?”
