His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 170

Caroline was about to head out when she suddenly turned back and said, "The $100,000 reward Nova received for plagiarising someone’s work goes to Eliza."

It was only then that everyone truly understood the situation. It turns out that Nova had stolen Eliza's design.

"I knew it! Her design looked just like your work. Congratulations," Jessie said with a friendly smile.

Was she getting a promotion?

Eliza was taken aback. She stood up awkwardly, forcing a strained smile toward everyone.

Caroline quickly left the design department.

People began to congratulate Eliza.

Meanwhile, in the CEO's office, Nova was crying like a hurt child.

"Even if I used someone else's design, do I really deserve to be fired? Everyone deserves a chance to make amends. She kicked me out in front of everyone without a shred of respect—Casper, your sister went too far." Nova sobbed uncontrollably.

Casper glanced at her with indifference. "This job was never really suitable for you. You're about to undergo a kidney transplant; you shouldn't overwork yourself. It's better if you rest at home."

"Casper..." Nova was willing to give up her position, but she wasn't about to let Eliza off the hook, "...then make Eliza take care of me, okay?"

Leaning lazily against his chair, Casper said, "She doesn't know how to take care of anyone." His words carried an unmistakable tone of indulgence.

"But she can keep me company. We're about the same age and have things in common. Just pay her a bit more, please agree."

Nova nagged persistently, refusing to give up until Casper agreed.

Casper neither agreed nor rejected the idea outright, showing a lack of interest. "I'll have the driver take you home."

Nova couldn't keep pushing. She knew Casper's temperament too well. So she softly said, "Then I'll take it as your agreement. I'll head home now."

As soon as Nova left, Dillon hurried in.
