His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Bleeding from his stab wound was quickly stopped to prevent fatal damage. However, he did suffer severe blood loss, leaving him in a critical state. After a grueling 24 hours of emergency treatment, he was still clinging to life, struggling on the edge. Dillon was frantic, and the situation looked grim. After a moment's thought, he decided to call Caroline and fill her in on the dire circumstances.

Caroline was stunned when she got the news. She quickly made her way to Oak Falls.

The lights in the emergency room were still on.

"What's going on?" she asked, her voice filled with anxiety.

Dillon could only recount what he witnessed. "The injury is severe. There was so much blood when I got there."

"This is outrageous. It's a deliberate attack." She glanced nervously at the emergency room, her heart pounding. "Did you call the police?"

"No," he answered honestly.

"No?" Caroline was baffled. Dillon wasn't one to miss such a crucial step. "He's been hurt this badly, and you didn't call the police? Are you out of your mind?"

"It's..." Dillon hesitated, lowering his head. "...Mr. Casper didn't want the police involved."

Caroline narrowed her eyes. "Does he know the person who stabbed him?"
