His Destructive, Toxic Love

Aunt Mae had really outdone herself this time. And Casper? He was not much better. He used to be so cautious, but ever since he lost his memory, it seemed like his smarts went with it.

The whole situation wasn't hard to crack. Dillon spent less than an hour digging up the truth for Caroline. He copied the hotel dining area footage and showed it to her.

"It was Katie who slipped the drug into Mr. Casper's drink while he was in the restroom, but she did it with Faye's approval. In other words, drugging Mr. Casper was their joint effort."

Caroline clenched her teeth in anger. Mae had brought her stepdaughter back from abroad, and now they were targeting Casper. The two of them were acting with blatant disregard for consequences.

As Dillon and Caroline were talking, Mae and Katie approached, their faces filled with anxiety and tension.

"Caroline, is Casper alright?"

"Caroline, how's Casper doing?"

Caroline's brows knitted together, her tone sharp. "How would you not know how he is? Have you forgotten what you've done already?"

Mae's gaze darkened, and she forced a nervous smile. "Caroline, what are you talking about? Katie and I just got here; how would we know..."

"Aunt, you're part of the Welton family. How could you team up with this stepdaughter of yours to harm Casper? You've really outdone yourselves by using such a drug. If anything serious happened to Casper, could you ever make it right?"

There was a coldness in Caroline's voice. She glared at Katie, who was now hanging her head low. "What were you thinking? Were you trying to sleep with him? Katie, who gave you the nerve to set your sights on Casper? I'm telling you, if Casper suffers even the slightest harm, you'll regret it."

Caroline couldn't fathom what Katie was dreaming of. Did she really think she could marry into the Welton family by getting involved with Casper? Not to mention, her relationship with Mae made it impossible for her and Casper to have any further relations, Even without any complications, Casper

would never marry someone like her.

Caroline turned to face Mae. "Aunt Mae, if you're behind this, you'd better drop the idea. If you dare try anything like this again, I assure you, you won't be welcome back in Falconridge."

Mae hadn't anticipated the situation escalating to such severity. She had only asked Katie to buy some aphrodisiacs. But Katie had chosen the strongest ones available.

"How could I harm Casper? He's blessed with good fortune; he should be fine."

Dillon pulled Caroline aside to show her another piece of surveillance footage. Pointing at the woman in the video, he said, "A woman entered Mr. Casper's room, and her silhouette looks very much like..."

"He better be," Caroline retorted.

Caroline scrutinized the blurry video, watching it repeatedly. The woman's figure and the way she walked indeed resembled Eliza's.

Recent news had reported that the

doyen of the art world, Carter, was

critically ill. Eliza was Carter's student and might have come to Falconridge to visit him and coincidentally stayed at the same hotel And then, by chance, had she ended up in Casper's room when the drug took effect? If that was the case, it was an incredible coincidence.

"Casper has lost his memory; I wonder if he could still remember Eliza."

Caroline sighed softly; she knew Eliza too well Yes, Eliza could file a report, but she was unwilling to revisit her past with Casper. Casper's memory loss, his forgetting her, was a blessing in disguise. Yet fate had entangled them once more.

"Dillon, do you think Casper could fall in love with Eliza again even after his memory loss?"This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
