GoodReadChapter 634 "Hey, listen to me," Casper said, holding Eliza's hand tightly, his palm slick with sweat. "Rory died right in front of me. You have to understand, I couldn't say no to anything he asked, especially when I was all alone back then..." Yeah, she got it. She really did. But why hadn't he married her back then? And why, after ten years of having a family and kids, did he suddenly want to keep that promise? Wasn't he just hurting her? Was she that easy to toss aside? "Casper, just because I understand doesn't mean I agree. And seriously, how many years has it been? Your kid's already ten..." Hold on. Kid? That kid...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Is that child yours?" Casper shook his head, swearing up and down, "No way, absolutely not mine." "Then how che was a match for Brock? We're Brock's biological parents and not even we were a match. So how was he? Are you sure he's not your son?" Eliza's eyes were filled with doubt.
Casper stayed firm. "He's definitely not mine. At first, I thought he might be Rory's, so I tried to make it up to Rory through this kid. But he's not Rory's son either." Eliza was baffled. Not Casper's, not his friend's... so who else could it be? Another man? "Casper, what on earth is going on with you guys?" "It's not me; it's Fiona..." Casper sighed, deciding to lay it all out for Eliza. "After Rory died, she moved to another city, hooked up with a rich guy, and got pregnant fast, thinking she could secure her spot with her kid. But the guy wouldn't leave his wife, and she got kicked out. Then she turned her sights on me." Eliza wasn't too shocked. Fiona always seemed a bit... strategic. Rich men aren't idiots. Why would a man's wife just hand over her husband and money to a mistress trying to climb the social ladder? Fiona wasn't just out of options; she was determined. She wanted to use Casper's guilt over his dead friend to make herself a wealthy lady. It's one thing to have plans, but it looks like hers didn't pan out.
Why didn't Casper tell her from the start? Did he think it wasn't worth mentioning? Or did he figure she didn't have the right to know his business? The more Eliza thought about it, the colder her voice got, "So that's the story, huh? Fine, I get it. You can go now." "Con, don't be like that. I've explained it all. Shouldn't we patch things up?" He looked at her with those pleading eyes, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Eliza chuckled softly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat was he thinking? Just because he explained, she should go back to being Mrs. Welton? What did he take her for? "There are loads of things we should do, but right now, we should get a divorce." "I really should've told you from the start. I was scared you'd overthink, get the wrong idea, that you'd..." "That I'd what? Eliza felt he was
dodging the real issue. "Casper, when Brock suddenly got sick, do you know how how panicked and lost was? called you so many times, and you didn't pick up once. Do you know how hopeless I felt?"
"You just want to explain your side, but did you ever stop to think about my feelings? Why should I bear all this hurt because of your situation? Casper, my heart isn't made of stone; it bleeds, it aches." "Do you think a simple explanation from you can makeforgive you? Honestly, do you?" "It's not just about whether you and Fiona had something going on; you still messed up. In our relationship
you never sawas someone to share happiness and burdens with. In your mind, I'm just someone you don't need."
