His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 546

After pausing for a moment, she whipped out her phone, switched it to handwriting mode, and handed it over to him. "If talking's not your thing, just write it down. I'm really at a loss here, trying to get what you're saying." He took a look at the phone she offered and, after hesitating for a second, accepted it.

He scribbled a line: Is it polite to wander around someone else's house without their permission?

Eliza knew she was in the wrong.

But she had just taken a little walk around the garden.

She hadn't ventured anywhere else.

"I only strolled around outside. If you don't believe me, feel free to check the security footage."

He kept writing on the phone: And you're still standing firm on your stance.

Eliza: ...Was she?

She was just sticking up for herself, that's all.

She couldn't stand being blamed for something she didn't do.

"Alright, alright, I was wrong. I'm sorry, okay?" It was just an apology, not a life-or-death situation.

Man: An apology and we're done?

Eliza's eyes widened in disbelief. Was she being shaken down?
