His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 658

"Do you think I'll ever see him again?" the child asked, his big eyes brimming with panic and worry.

Eliza's heart ached at the sight. She reached out and gently patted his head. "Not right now, sweetie."

"And later on?"

"Later... I'm not sure," Eliza admitted, feeling the weight of uncertainty.

The little guy seemed to grasp her hesitation, his fluffy head drooping slowly. "Thanks, ma'am. I'll head back now."

He turned and started walking away, his small figure moving in the opposite direction.

Watching him take those few steps, Eliza called out, "Where are you going? There's no one at home to look after you."

"I can take care of myself, ma'am," he replied, his head hanging low as he trudged along the wall, like he'd done something wrong.

The sun cast a long shadow behind his small frame, making the scene feel even more desolate and lonely.

Eliza's heart softened; she felt a pang of discomfort watching him leave. But what could she do? If she brought Dylan back, Fiona would probably accuse her of kidnapping.
