His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 480

The man let go of her as if he'd been shocked, eyes wide with concern. "Did I hurt you?"

"Casper, I just need some sleep."

She felt like she'd been dreaming forever.

In her dreams, Casper would go on and on about the little things in life and his work, every single day.

Every. Single. Day. It was exhausting.

She didn't want to hear it. She wanted to tell him to stop, but no words came out when she opened her mouth.

Finally, she woke up, but she was so, so tired.

"How about I sleep with you for a bit? Is that okay?" he asked, looking almost pitiful, like he was bracing himself for rejection.

Eliza didn't even have to think. "I want to sleep alone for a bit."

"Alright." He forced a smile, looking a bit down. "I'll make you some food. You've been asleep for ages, you must be starving. I've learned a new recipe, I'll cook it for you."

He turned to leave but came back to kiss her on the lips. "You sleep. I'll wake you when it's ready."

Watching him leave with such excitement, Eliza's eyes dimmed.
