His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 589

"Casper, did you really split the diamond?" Minna grabbed the man's arm just as he was about to leave. "Do you have any clue how much that diamond is worth?"

"What's it to you?" Casper chuckled, a smirk tugging at his lips. "Just because it's pricey, you think you can claim it?"

Minna's confident smile wavered for a moment. Sure, the diamond's value was enticing. But what really captivated her was its vibrant, rainbow-like colors. She had a knack for believing that anything unique in this world should belong to her. "Wouldn't you swap that diamond for your freedom?"

This wasn't Minna's first attempt to dangle freedom in front of him. Previously, she suggested trading his global steel empire at Welton International for his freedom. Before that, it was ten free trade ports.

Casper was fed up with her offers and especially loathed the Christianson family's insatiable greed. Getting out of there was just a matter of time. He didn't need her charity. Not only did he plan on leaving, but he also intended to settle the score for all the wrongs he'd endured.

sigh, Casper released Minna's hand. "Ms. Minna, maybe you should focus more on enjoying life. The world doesn't revolve around you. You're not a god who decides who lives or dies. My life, Casper's life, isn't yours to take." Casper's indifference drove Minna to the brink of madness. If
