His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

The grand gates of Mercy Hospital creaked open slowly.

A sleek Rolls-Royce glided in, and the gates shut behind it with a heavy thud.

Eliza was just like before, sitting there hugging her knees, lost in thought.

"She's fine. Her meals are prepared separately as you ordered, Mr. Welton. But her appetite's not great; she barely eats."

Casper's eyes lingered on Eliza's slender frame for a moment before he waved the staff away.
