His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 208

"Of course."

...

The engagement was all Tristan's doing. To avoid any future slip-ups a few days before the event, Tristan called Casper over and warned him, "You're about to get engaged to Nova. Are you ready?"

Casper couldn't care less. With a cigarette lazily hanging between his fingers, he stared at his father with a look of boredom.

"Did I ever say I wanted to get engaged to her?"

"If not you, then who?" Tristan gestured to the elaborately decorated engagement venue. "Look at all this. What do you propose we do now?"

"Was this my idea?" Casper stubbed out his cigarette, his eyes scanning the romantic setup. "Whoever set this up should be the one getting engaged."

"You..." Tristan, trembling with anger, slapped Casper. "Who do you think I'm doing all this for? It's all for Welton International! What's the big deal about making a small sacrifice? Besides, don't you love Nova? You even had Eliza committed to an asylum for her. Why won't you go through with it?"

Casper's jaw tightened.
