His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

"Come on, stop messing around and behave for once."

Casper thought Eliza's request for a divorce was just her throwing yet another tantrum.

Eliza was someone who rarely made decisions, but when she did, she stuck to them. As for their marriage? Well, a marriage involving three people was just too crowded.

Casper didn't love her, and she couldn't keep loving a man who'd left her with nothing but emotional scars.

"Casper, I'm not throwing a tantrum," she said, her voice steady. "I've thought this through. I don't want to be your wife anymore. Let's get a divorce."

"Do you really have to divorce me?" He asked, his tone turning icy. "Eliza, you think you get to decide?"

"I'm willing to step aside."

A heart doesn't turn cold overnight. For two long years, she poured her soul into being the perfect wife and future mother, working harder to please him than any servant ever would. Time and again, she convinced herself to wait just a little longer. She thought he'd come around, and he'd see her worth.

How laughable it turned out to be. It was nothing but a pipe dream.

Half a bottle of birth control pills had stolen her chance to be a mother and also made her see her marriage for what it truly was.

Casper had taken up her entire youth - she was finally ready to let him go.
