His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 735

Casper lowered his gaze, focusing intently on the weather forecast displayed on his tablet. The stretch of road Eliza was driving through was flagged as hazardous, with the relentless rain increasing the chances of landslides and rockslides. Casper's heart started to race with worry.

He tried calling Eliza several more times, but each attempt was met with silence. Dillon, who was familiar with the area shown on the tablet, knew it was famed for its raw, untouched beauty. This untouched nature was both stunning and dangerous, a fitting parallel to Crystal Clear's latest collection theme.

"Mr. Casper, do you think Eliza might have headed into the mountains?" Dillon wondered aloud. "Isn't that one of the spots Gabe's company set up?"

Dillon was aware of the collaboration between Gabe's company and Crystal Clear. But with three venues for Crystal Clear's launch event, he wasn't certain if that mountain location was one of Gabe's.

"Mr. Casper, if you're really concerned, I'll head out there and take a look," Dillon offered.

Casper nodded, grateful for Dillon's initiative. "Yes, please do. You check things out, and I'll keep trying to get through. Let's stay connected."

"Got it, Mr. Casper."
