His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 403

Eliza was probably worried about saying too much, unsure if Caroline would be willing to listen. Caroline just hummed in response and didn’t add anything else.

The conversation then shifted to the latest developments at Welton International. "Zach's under scrutiny; they're going to audit some accounts. This time, it looks like he won’t dodge prison."

Tristan, who cared deeply for Zach, had been fighting for him and pleading with Casper on his behalf. But Caroline knew Casper well enough to guess that Casper wouldn’t let it slide.

“…Regardless, Zach needs to face the consequences of his actions. Even if Casper lets it go, the law won’t.”

Breaking the law leaves no room for leniency.

“He brought this on himself.”

“Let’s not talk about him anymore.” Caroline was curious about Eliza’s next steps. “What about you? Are you planning to stay in Falconridge?”

“With my dad’s situation, there’s no way we can return to Oak Falls anytime soon.” She needed to care for him and felt quite uncertain about her future.

Caroline, sharing Casper’s perspective, hoped Eliza would hire a caregiver for Mikey. This would not only ease her burden but also allow Eliza to find a job, as everyone needs to make a living.

“Why not go back to working at the auction house? I’ll talk to Casper; he won’t say no.”

Eliza shook her head slightly. She hadn’t considered returning to work at Welton International.

“Sis, I can make a living by selling my paintings now. If things get really tough, I’ll look for a job, but for now… my life is manageable.”

Caroline could somewhat understand Eliza’s thoughts and didn’t push the matter.

“If you ever run into trouble, promise you’ll tell me.”
