His Destructive, Toxic Love

Eliza's expression turned icy. "Ms. Susan, you can check my identity with your fiancé. Now, kindly step aside."

"Hmph." Susan let out a scoff, crossing her arms over her chest, her eyes brimming with scorn as they bore into Eliza. "Ex-wives are the most revolting creatures. You're divorced; can't you just stay away? What are you even after?"

"That's enough."

Casper's voice cut through the air, sharp and angry.

Instead of backing down, Susan's temper flared even more at Casper's displeasure. She turned her fury on him. "Casper, secretly meeting up with your ex-wife and you think you're in the right? My father gave you a marina, not for me to come here and deal with this crap." Eliza was taken aback.

The Torres family sure knew how to make a statement, offering a marina as a dowry.

If she were in Casper's shoes, she'd probably put up with Susan too, given how much the other side valued the marriage. After all, such a union was a win-win for both parties.

She needed to get out of this mess, fast.

Suddenly, a force yanked her from behind...

Susan had grabbed Eliza's arm and pulled her back violently.

Eliza lost her balance, her body teetering backward.

A flicker of panic crossed Susan's eyes, fearing Eliza might actually fall. She quickly stepped aside.

Seeing this, Casper swiftly got up and steadied Eliza by the waist, preventing her from falling.

"Are you alright?" he asked, genuinely concerned.

Eliza, still shaken, patted her chest. "I'm fine."

"Have you had enough?" Casper turned to face Susan, his eyes blazing with anger.

Feeling wronged because Eliza had been scolded, Susan's eyes reddened. "You always blame me, but it's clearly you two..."

Misunderstanding Casper was one thing.

But she wouldn't allow any misunderstanding of herself.

Eliza's expression turned frosty.

"Ms. Susan, your fiancé and I were just discussing some matters, and we were in a café, in broad daylight. What do you think we were doing behind your back?"

Susan's voice was sharp, and Eliza turned pale with anger.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

In a public place like a café, she didn't want to keep arguing with Susan endlessly.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her anger. "I'm leaving."

"Eliza, don't go." Susan called out.

Eliza turned back, clearly annoyed.

In that instant, Susan grabbed a coffee cup from the table and, with a flick of her wrist, threw it at Eliza.

Casper tried to intervene but was a step too late.

The coffee splashed across Eliza's delicate face, dripping down, soaking her pristine white silk blouse.

Her face, her blouse, all stained with coffee, she looked utterly disheveled.

Eliza clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with anger.

"Slap!"

A crisp slap echoed through the air, shattering the surrounding silence.

Susan's cheek was turned a full ninety degrees by Casper's ruthless palm.

A vivid red mark instantly bloomed on her delicate face. "Apologize."

Casper's face was as cold as ice.
