His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 643 When he was younger, he often daydreamed about the kind of woman he'd end up marrying. She'd be bright-eyed and kind, with a gentle and serene presence, someone who could play music, paint, and know her way around a good book. She'd have a top-notch education and a sharp, savvy personality- someone who could effortlessly handle social events and be patient with his moods. She'd be a fantastic cook, able to satisfy his picky taste buds. A traditional lady from a good family, not necessarily drop-dead gorgeous, but definitely easy on the eyes. Their marriage would probably be arranged by their parents- not exactly a love match, but a union that made sense.

But the woman standing before him now wasn't anything like that. She didn't have a knack for navigating social circles. In fact, she never even asked about his business affairs. Sure, she could cook, but he preferred taking care of her, indulging her whims. She was beautiful, the kind of beautiful that made him irrationally jealous, worried she might glance at another man, a beauty that kept his heart in a constant flutter. Maybe they weren't the perfect match, but their love was strong enough.

"Casper, what are you up to? Weren't you supposed to have a business dinner?" she asked, shivering a bit in her light outfit against the breeze on the penthouse balcony. "Why are you dressed like this, holding a bouquet? What's going on?"

Casper shrugged off his coat, draping it over her shoulders, and pulled her into a gentle hug, handing her the flowers. "Today, I wanted to create a memory we'd never forget."

Eliza was a bit bewildered but sensed something big was about to happen. He dropped to one knee, pulled out an exquisite ring box, and opened it.
