Casper hadn't eaten dinner.
After throwing out the meal she had prepared for him, Eliza finally headed upstairs. She stood at the bedroom door, hesitating for what felt like an eternity. She knew what was about to happen, but every fiber of her being rejected it. It took several moments of steeling herself before she finally pushed open the bedroom door and stepped inside. Casper was propped up against the headboard, engrossed in work on his laptop. He didn't look up or acknowledge her. She moved on autopilot, heading to the shower. When she cback and sat on the bed, his voice, cool and detached, cfrom behind her. "I can restore your nand identity if you want. Any objections?" "Not yet," she replied, trying to keep her voice level.

You wouldn't want reporters hounding you every day, asking how I died and cback to life, would you?" She spoke every word on behalf of the Welton family, Welton International, and Casper. Yet, none of it cfrom her heart.
Suddenly, he wrapped his arms around her waist, his chin resting on her shoulder as he laughed mockingly. "How considerate." Her body stiffened, tension radiating through her. "Mr. Casper, can I go stay with my son after this?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.
His lips brushed against her neck, his voice thick with desire. "You calledMr. Casper before, and you still do. I don't like it. How can I let you go stay with your son?" "Then, what would you prefer I call you?" she asked, trying to dodge his lips.
He grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him. "Why are you so resistant? Or have you gotten used to Aaron's gentleness over these three years and forgotten how things used to be between us?" "How things used to be?" A bitter smile tugged at her lips, filled with cold detachment. "Do you really want to go back to that?" He wanted to start fresh with her. But he couldn't stand the thought of her heart belonging to another man. "Whether I want to or not depends on you, doesn't it?" "Casper, you really haven't changed at all," she said, her eyes reflecting a hint of disappointment. "Don't you get it? No woman wants to be forced." "Am I forcing you?" He raised an eyebrow, a sardonic smile playing on his lips. "Eliza, don't forget, you were the one who proposed this deal. When you beggedto save your son, you didn't have this attitude." Eliza fell silent. She had indeed proposed it. But now, she just couldn't go through with it. If he insisted, it would be coercion.
"Why are you silent now?" He gripped her chin tighter, forcing her to meet his gaze. "Run out of arguments?" "I remember what I said," she replied coldly.
"Good." He smirked. "I won't force you, but will you take the initiative?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo. Eliza wouldn't. She might have done it with any other man but not with him.
The prolonged silence irked him, and he pressed on. "Have you really fallen for Aaron? Do you know him? Khow You e his past? Do you know why he got close to you? Just think about your son falling into the sea have you ever suspected Aaron?" Eliza's eyes widened, her expression turning rigid.
Before, when Casper spoke ill of Aaron, she dismissed it as slander.
But with Brock's words in the back of her mind she started to see struth in Casper's accusations. Yet, she didn't know if Casper had any real evidence or if he was just spewing nonsense. RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
