Eliza barely lifted her eyelids, a bitter taste creeping into her heart. "You set this whole thing up, and now you're bailing me out. What am I supposed to thank you for? Not killing me outright?" He scoffed, "I'm giving you a chance to repay the favor."

With a casual air, Casper told the driver, "Head to Hope Hospital."
