His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 49

Eliza paused, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. So, it was Casper who had tipped so generously.

“What’s the deal with such a big tip out of nowhere? I can't accept this.”

“Is it the money you can't accept or the fact that it’s me tipping?” He yanked the curtain aside, his voice sharp. “Would you have taken it if it was from another guy?”

Eliza had already changed her clothes. She stared at him, her expression blank, offering no explanation. She felt there was no need to elaborate.

The lawyer's business card slipped out as she rummaged through her purse for her phone. It drifted down to Casper's feet.

She quickly bent to grab it, but he stopped her with a raised hand. He picked up the card from the floor, his face darkening as he read the text.

“This is mine, give it back.”

“Wow, going international with your lawyer now?” Casper pinched the card between his fingers and slapped it against Eliza's cheek. “Trying to play games with me?”

She bent down to retrieve the card, tucking it away calmly. “We were bound to part ways eventually.”

“Looks like I've been too lenient with you.” His voice was eerily calm.

Eliza grabbed her purse and tried to run, only for him to yank her back, “Do you only feel the pain when I inflict it onto you?”

“Casper, let go of me.” She glared at him, a defiant glint in her eyes that he found unsettling.

“I know you haven’t seen Robin in a while.” He lifted his chin arrogantly, looking down at her. “I bet you’re dying to know how he’s doing.”

Eliza's heart clenched. Her eyes flickered, and she looked up at him, her voice shaky, “What have you done to him?”

“If you want to know, you’ll have to behave.”

He leaned against the locker, his lips curling in disdain. “Kiss me.”
