His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

"Casper, did you just hit me? I'm your fiancée, and you slapped me over your ex-wife?" Susan's voice trembled as she cupped her flushed cheek, eyes brimming with tears and lashes quivering. "Casper, you and she should be the ones apologizing."

Casper's gaze was icy, and his tone left no room for argument. "Apologize. Now."

Susan was genuinely afraid of Casper, especially when his face turned dark and he exuded a chilling aura. He was like a predator, ready to tear her apart without a second thought.

Ronan had warned her. Casper was known for his ruthlessness. To handle him, you had to approach gently, never confront head-on. For the sake of the Torres family and her future with Casper, she swallowed her pride.

"I'll apologize, but she needs to apologize to me too," Susan finally said, a hint of reluctance in her voice.

Casper wasn't having it. His gaze grew colder. "Don't make me say it a third time."

A shiver ran down Susan's spine. She knew angering Casper would lead to no good. She clenched her teeth, pushing down her resentment. "Fine. I'm sorry."
