His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Her plans had always stayed the same, but right now, she was at the mercy of the situation.

"Chelsea, I think I need to wait until Robin gets out, then make plans."

Chelsea understood that dealing with someone like Casper required patience. It was better to bide your time than rush into things.

Still, she was genuinely scared that Eliza would end up back in her old life.

Eliza sighed. "I want to work."

"Thank you, Chelsea." Eliza accepted the card, tears welling up. "I'll pay you back."
