His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 418

She reached up to touch his forehead, but he dodged away. "Go back, I'm tired. I need to rest."

"Do you dislike me that much?" The young girl felt a pang of hurt. She had come here so eagerly to marry him. "Is it because I'm not pretty enough, or is it my personality? Or maybe my family's not good enough for you?" "It's me who's not good enough for you."
