His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 47

Aaron didn't deny it. He just nodded and said, "Yeah."

"Get out here."

Casper grabbed Aaron by the collar and dragged him out of the hospital room. They ended up on the rooftop.

When Casper swung his fist, Aaron caught it mid-air. "You gonna give me a reason before throwing punches?"

His eyes were dark and intense. Casper's rage was almost unrecognizable now. "Do you like her?"

"So patching up her wounds means I like her?" Aaron couldn't wrap his head around Casper's twisted thinking. "Casper, it's called being decent. Her hand was messed up, and as her husband, wasn't it your job to look after her first?"

"Are you saying you took over my dutie as her husband?" Casper's jaw was clenched, veins popping on his forehead.

"I was just doing what any doctor would." Aaron realized talking to Casper was pointless. He turned to leave but paused. "If you love her, treat her right. If you don't, let her go."

Aaron didn't go back to the room. The Welton family had already picked up Jeffrey.

Audrey and Eliza walked out of the hospital, chatting at the entrance.

"Casper's not treating you well, is he?" Audrey asked.

Eliza couldn't find the words to answer.

Audrey sighed, "I've been in this family for thirty years. Tristan's had mistresses everywhere, with kids all over the place. I'd have left him ages ago if it weren't for Casper."

She held Eliza's hand, giving it a gentle pat. "You're still young and without kids tying you down. If you ever want to leave, I won't stop you."
