His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 264

Aaron and Zach worked together?

How on earth could these two, who seemingly had nothing in common, have financial dealings?

“What do you think is the reason?” Casper asked.

Dillon had a few theories.

“Maybe Zach has some side hustle and teamed up with Aaron on the down-low. Or maybe they’re working together on something, trading favors for mutual benefits.”

Given the small amount of money involved, it couldn’t be a major business deal.

“I think the only thing that could connect those two is Eliza.”

On the surface, both Aaron and Zach seemed pretty into Eliza. By normal logic, they’d be love rivals.

Could rivals collaborate? It didn’t make sense.

“Could it be because of me?” Casper’s voice was deep, his gaze as mysterious as the dark depths of the ocean.

Dillon frowned, puzzled. “Why is that?”

“Maybe they’re both targeting me.” He chuckled softly, a teasing tone in his voice.

Dillon understood but was also confused. He guessed, “Could it be the typical, the enemy of my enemy is my friend?”

Casper laughed, gently tapping Dillon’s forehead. “You’re quite the genius, kid.”

“I get why Zach would want to go after you, but Dr. Martin? Weren’t you two close friends?” Dillon still couldn’t wrap his head around it. “Is it all about your wife? Even if he loved her, that just makes him the other guy, right? Why would he ignore the Martin family’s interests?”

Three years ago, Casper nearly drove the Martin family out of Falconridge. They’d only just managed to get back on their feet in Oak Falls, and now Aaron was risking it all again. The Martin family would definitely disown him.

Casper’s gaze drifted to a memory.

A woman named May was pregnant with Aaron’s child when she jumped from a hundred-foot-high building, ending her life at just twenty-two.
