His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 742

Eliza chuckled softly, "How could I forget? It's a gift from you, and I've been looking forward to it."

"Honey..." He wrapped his arms around her waist, nuzzling into her neck, "I just don't like you getting too close to Gabe. I'm feeling a bit jealous."

Eliza paused. So, it was about Gabe all along.

"We're just discussing business. His company is really professional, and their rates are fair. We've signed the contract already. We can't just back out, can we?"

"Could we not involve him next time, please?" Casper's display of vulnerability was on point.

Eliza hesitated, unsure whether to agree or not, "Let's talk about it later."

"Can't you just say no to other guys for me?"

Eliza burst out laughing, "Where did that come from? Casper, aren't your business partners mostly men too? Don't be silly. Let's get ready to head back to Falconridge."

She gently pushed him away, not wanting to linger on the topic.

Business is business. Life is life. She kept them separate.
