His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Eliza had been with Casper for two years and knew him like the back of her hand. With him, you thrived. Against him, you perished. He wanted her to go back to being Mrs. Welton, to be nothing more than a lifeline for Jeffery. Had he ever considered that sending her brother to Mercy Hospital was a point of no return for her?

"Can you set up a meeting with Zach for me?" Eliza asked. After a moment of surprise, Chelsea nodded. "Sure."

They chose a quiet corner café for the weekend. Eliza arrived early and ordered a cup of coffee. Zach walked in with a white T-shirt and casual pants, making his legs look long and straight. His hair was tousled, and his face, framed by a lazy smile, exuded charm.

His appearance hadn't changed much in two years. He was looking more and more like Casper.

"Do I call you 'boss' now?" Eliza asked, stirring her coffee without standing up. Zach sat down, leaning back in his chair, his lips curling into a slight smile. "It seems my presence bothers you."

"What's your game?" she asked, her gaze cool and direct. Even after all these years, Zach still had a boyish face, looking like a college student. But his eyes had lost their innocence.
