"Do you really think that if you go back to Casper, he will let Robin go?" Eliza's hand froze mid-unlock. She didn't know if Casper would keep his promise, but she had no other options.
Facing Eliza's silence, Zach pressed his large hand against the door and continued, "If you were really that important to him, he wouldn't have sent Robin to Mercy Hospital in the first place. Don't you want to know what Robin went through while he was there?" Eliza's heart tightened. Of course, she wanted to know. But could she handle it? "What are you trying to say?" she asked.

"Do you think I care so much about being Mrs. Welton? Zach, save your breath. I'm not going to be of much use to you in your quest to take over the Welton family inheritance." Zach laughed suddenly, crossing his arms and looking at her with a knowing smirk. "You'd rather go back to someone who doesn't love you than lethelp you? It seems your brother isn't that important to you after all." Her gaze turned icy. "Say whatever you want." Right now, Zach was even more dangerous than Casper-an illegitimate son striving for power with methods that were no less ruthless. At least with Casper, she had a legitimate identity.
She wasn't foolish; she knew what was at stake.
The next morning, Eliza asked her boss for a day off. She planned to tidy up her hwhen Chelsea arrived for a chat.
"Are you really going back? To wait on those two disgusting people?" Chelsea fumed, crushing her slim cigarette in a disposable cup. "What are you thinking?" Eliza looked down, her eyelashes casting shadows of melancholy and helplessness. "I have no choice. He promisedhe would release Robin. As long as Robin can be free, it's worth it." Chelsea felt disheartened. She lit another cigarette, bowing her head to light it. "Did Robin really assault Nova?" Although Eliza and Robin didn't grow up together, they'd lived together for five years since she returned to the Pinotti family. She didn't believe Robin was that kind of person.
"I don't think so, do you?" Eliza asked.
Chelsea spat out a curse. "How could it be true? Robin and Nova grew up together. To him, Nova is like his own sister. Could he suddenly develop feelings for her just because Nova was not his real sister anymore? That's absurd." Only someone as foolish as Casper would believe Nova's baseless accusations.

"He has evidence, and it points to Robin," Eliza said, sorrow flickering in her eyes Chelsea chuckled lightly. "What evidence? The one Nova gave him?" "Yeah."
"Nova, that conniving bitch. She must have been plotting this for a long ei time, right?
Nova was no saint. Drugging Robin and collecting sDNA wasn't & Shep m difficult. She probably staged a scenato make it seem she was violated. Casper was a gullible fool, so it all made sense. "Elle, Casper wants you back home, not to divorce him. What do you wanna do?" Eliza wanted a divorce.
