His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 545

After everyone exchanged polite hellos, the mood was pretty laid-back. Eliza and Juan were off to the side, chatting away. "Do you have any idea who the mystery bigwig bankrolling this shindig is?" Eliza asked. "I've heard it's someone loaded," Juan replied, with that air of mystery.

Eliza rolled her eyes. That was about as helpful as a screen door on a submarine. "I mean, who is he really?"

"How would I know? It's my first time here too."

Eliza couldn't shake the feeling she'd seen those eyes somewhere before. But where?

"Juan, don't you think his eyes look a lot like... Casper's?"

Juan paused, taking a moment to peek over. "Now that you mention it, there's definitely a resemblance."

"So, do you think it could be Casper?"

Juan was dumbfounded. Was she losing it? Casper was supposed to be dead.
