She closed her eyes, tears slipping down her cheeks and landing on the pillow, where they seemed to burst into the shape of petals.

Casper didn't feel a shred of pity for her tears. Once he came, he withdrew and headed to the bathroom to clean himself up.

Eliza clutched her stomach, cold sweat beading on her forehead from the pain. Ignoring everything else, she hastily dressed and stumbled out. Nova's eyes flared with jealousy, especially when she saw the marks on Eliza's neck, varying in intensity. They drove her mad.

Marian noticed Eliza's pale face and rushed over to support her. "Madam, are you alright?"

"Marian, please help me..." Eliza could barely stand the pain and sank to the ground. "Call me a cab."

Marian was terrified of angering Casper. If he got mad, the entire staff at Welton Manor would be in trouble.

"Marian, if this tramp wants to leave, let her. Keeping her here will only cause more problems," Nova sneered. Marian said. "I'll call a cab for you."
