His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 2

The muscles in Casper’s jaw clenched as he yanked the bottle of pills from her hand and gripped her chin tightly. "You like your meds, huh? Fine, then down the whole lot."

He poured the white pills from the bottle into her mouth while she struggled to break free.

"You want 'em? Then take 'em all at once." He grabbed a glass of water from the shelf and forced it down Eliza's throat.

She started choking and coughing violently as she tried to expel the pills. Half of the hundred pills in the bottle went down her throat.

Eliza started gagging...

"Eliza, you better pray you never have my kid."

Casper let go of her roughly, picked up his jacket, and slammed the bedroom door shut behind him.

Stumbling, Eliza rushed to the bathroom to force herself to vomit. In the end, she had to be rushed to the hospital to get her stomach pumped.

Even though she got there in time, some of the medication had already entered her bloodstream, causing varying degrees of damage to her heart, liver, and kidneys. The high dose of hormones had triggered premature ovarian failure.

The doctor told her she might never be able to conceive again.

After crying her eyes out, Eliza felt a strange sense of relief.

In her drowsy state, she heard Marian, the housekeeper, calling Casper. "Her's condition isn't good. Perhaps you could come to the hospital?"

"Is she dead?" His voice was loud and cold, cutting through the phone.

"Not yet, but..."

"I'm busy..." A woman's voice in the background chimed in, "Casper, can you help me with my zipper?"

Annoyed, Casper's voice came through again, "Don't bother me with stuff like this."
