His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

"Nova," Eliza's voice was as cold as ice, almost mocking. "Stop trying to make yourself relevant in front of me. Even if he slept with you right here, I wouldn't feel a thing."

"You're not that important."

"Well, how about this? Is this important enough?"

Nova pulled out a necklace with a dazzling 9.9-carat diamond, so bright it was nearly blinding.

This necklace was called 'Tears of a Goddess.' It's famous in the jewelry world and rumored to grant its owner the world's most precious, everlasting love.

"Do you know how much this is worth? It's Casper's engagement gift to me.

"Casper and I are getting engaged soon. You've heard, haven't you? The house has been bought, and he truly loves me.

"Casper said he would give me the most romantic engagement gift and an unforgettable wedding. He said he'd make me the happiest woman in the world..."
