His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 604

"You've been through Nova, Casper, but I'm not the one with amnesia here."

Casper looked a bit sheepish. "What I'm saying is, don't you think this whole thing is a bit odd?"

After all, no one's been in this lounge since it got its facelift.

Eliza wasn't in the mood to play detective.

To her, the reason was crystal clear.

It was just Casper being, well, Casper. A leopard doesn't change its spots.

He was never up to any good.

"Let go of me." She mustered all her strength to break free from his grip, her anger flaring. "Casper, let me go. Can't you understand plain English?"

"Elle..."

"Don't call me that. You're making me sick."

Eventually, Casper gave in, and she stormed out of his office, her anger still simmering.

First thing she did when she got home was hunt down the marriage certificate Casper had sneakily obtained without her consent.

With the certificate in hand, she made a beeline for the registry office and confronted Mr. Roberts. Roberts blinked at her, caught off guard. "And you are...?"

"This marriage certificate, you processed it, right?" She practically threw it at him. "How did you manage this without me there? Where's my divorce certificate? Give it back."

Roberts glanced at the names on the certificate, his forehead twitching. "But you weren't there for the divorce certificate with Mr. Casper either. Does that mean it can be annulled too?"
