His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 460

Suddenly, a clear, innocent child's voice rang out like a bolt from the blue above her head.

“Mr. Casper, why did you kiss my mom?”

The little guy's big, fluffy eyes blinked twice, glimmering with curiosity.

The two adults sprang apart as if jolted by electricity, caught off guard and clueless.

Casper managed to keep his composure, being a man, his skin wasn't as thin, though a flicker of embarrassment danced in his eyes.

Eliza, on the other hand, felt her face heat up like a kid caught red-handed.

Even her dainty earlobes turned a tender shade of red.

She tried to explain, but the words got stuck in her throat, refusing to come out.

Her fingers fidgeted restlessly, twirling a lock of hair at her forehead in a futile attempt to hide her embarrassment.

“Mommy…” the little guy called out.

“Huh?” Eliza pressed a hand to her wildly beating heart, stammering, “That… Mommy and Mr. Casper… weren’t… kissing.”

“But your lips were stuck together,” the little guy blinked his clear, wide eyes in confusion, then turned to Casper, asking in his sweet, innocent voice, “Mr. Casper, are you bullying my mom?”

“Not at all.” Casper, unsure how to explain adult behavior to a child, said, “Brock, actually, Mr. Casper likes your mommy, so… kissing… it’s a way to show love.”

“But… Ms. Luna said boys shouldn’t just kiss girls, and if they do, they have to take responsibility,” the little guy stated earnestly.

Eliza was sweating bullets.

It was all Casper’s fault. Kissing her was one thing, but letting Brock see it was another.

Would her son think she was an improper woman?

Casper seemed to read her thoughts. He bent down, looking Brock earnestly in the eyes, and promised, “I’ll take responsibility, I absolutely will, okay?”
