Chapter 333

Eliza forced a polite but distant smile. "No need, Mr. Casper. I appreciate the gesture, but you should head back to Falconridge. Safe travels." Casper nodded slightly, his gaze shifting meaningfully towards Dillon. "Dillon."

Dillon stepped forward, immediately understanding. "Mr. Casper, what do you need?"

"Give Ms. Valerie some money. She's taken care of me for so long, and being a single mom isn't easy."

Dillon was speechless. Had Mr. Casper really forgotten everything?

"No need, let's call it even," Eliza declined his offer and returned to her room with Brock.

"This..." Dillon hesitated, unsure if Casper genuinely couldn't remember. Was it temporary amnesia? Or was he pretending? Dillon didn't dare say more.
