His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 732

"Want me to give you a lift?"

"No thanks, I'll just grab a cab." She politely turned down his offer.

Eliza flagged down a taxi and headed to the address Dillon had texted her. The place was a breeze to find, boasting a grand entrance and top-notch decor. Just as she was about to walk in, someone stopped her.

"Ma'am, our spa operates on a membership basis. We require a financial check; it's not open to everyone."

Eliza was taken aback. She'd never heard of needing a financial check just to use a spa.

"I'm here to visit someone," she said, not wanting to get into it with the staff, "Do I need a financial check for that too?"

"Well, in that case... no. May I know which member you're here to see?" The staff member was all business, tapping away on a tablet. "Please, the member's name?"

"Casper."

The receptionist's demeanor shifted slightly. Dillon had given her a heads-up earlier. Anyone asking for Casper was to be let through without hassle.

"You're here for Mr. Casper? He's in the Emerald Pool on the third floor. You can head right up." She gave Eliza a strained smile and gestured her forward. "Watch your step, be careful."
