His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 623

"Fast asleep," Fiona sighed softly, barely audible. "Ever since Dylan donated his bone marrow to Brock, he's been snoozing a lot more. I can't help but worry if it's affecting his health."

"I've got the doctors at Welton Hospital keeping a close eye on Dylan's health for a year. No need to fret."

Medically speaking, donating bone marrow shouldn't have any lasting effects. But with Dylan being so young, it's only natural for Fiona, as a mom, to have concerns. All he could do was put her mind at ease.

"You're always so good at handling things," Fiona said, her thoughts drifting back in time, a gentle smile playing on her lips. "I remember in college, you were already more mature and meticulous than anyone else. It's still a mystery to me how, with all those girls swooning over you, you never had a girlfriend."

Casper was a bit of a late bloomer in the romance department. Before meeting Eliza, he hadn't even dipped his toes into the dating pool.

Back then, he was all about the business hustle.

"There was just never anyone who caught my eye," he replied, shrugging it off.

"You were handsome and a bit of a perfectionist, so it makes sense no girl seemed to measure up," Fiona's expression softened in the light. "I remember Rory saying that if you ever tied the knot, she'd have to either love you fiercely or understand you completely."

"Love is about giving, not taking," Casper wasn't thrilled about diving into a love talk, but since Fiona brought it up, he felt he had to share a bit. "My wife is someone I’d give everything for."

Fiona's smile wavered.

She glanced away awkwardly. "It's getting late, I should get some rest."

"Fiona," he called out gently, hoping she'd see that no favor was worth abandoning his family for. "My wife and I have been through so much together..."

"Let's catch up tomorrow, I'm pretty beat."

Fiona hurried upstairs, not wanting to hear Casper's refusal, not giving him the chance to.

She was the epitome of a devoted wife and mom. Every morning, she’d rise early to whip up breakfast for Casper and Dylan.
