His Destructive, Toxic Love novel Chapter 194

Dillon paused mid-sentence.

Casper, quick as a whip, tossed the ashtray across the room. "Why are you dragging it out? Who is it?"

Dillon caught the ashtray and set it down gently on the table. He took a deep breath and said, "It's Nova."

Nova?

Since the incident blew up, Casper had suspected many people. Maybe it was Aaron trying to ruin Eliza's reputation, pushing Casper to divorce her in a fit of rage so Aaron could swoop in. Or maybe it was Zach targeting Welton International.

But Nova? She never even crossed his mind.

"Dammit," Casper swore, not sure if he was more angry at someone else or himself.

Dillon dropped another bombshell. "Mr. Casper, remember when Rose was kidnapped, and they harvested all her organs?"

"What about it?" Casper's brow furrowed, his eyes turning cold and sharp. "Is this connected to Nova, too?"

"One of the doctors who fled abroad posted online about his collusion with Nova in committing murder and other crimes."

Dillon had been stunned when he first saw the post. Like many others, he thought it was just wild talk. But curiosity got the best of him, so he messaged the doctor. That was when he uncovered some unsettling truths.

Eliza had suspected Nova from the start. Casper and even Dillon himself found it hard to believe. How could frail, disabled Nova be the mastermind behind such a sinister plot? Even if she held a grudge against Eliza, Rose was still Nova’s adopted mother, the woman who raised her.

He took a deep breath, his eyes growing colder.

That evening, Casper headed over to Nova's place. She was in high spirits, having cooked his favorite dishes. The internet was buzzing with rumors of their engagement, and she assumed he hadn't mentioned it yet as a surprise. Casper showing up today must be to discuss it.

"Casper, it's been a while since you came by this early," Nova said, smiling.

Casper sank into the plush sofa, crossing his legs. "Do you know Dominic?" he asked suddenly.

A flicker of panic crossed Nova's eyes. "What, Dr. Dominic?"

"I'm talking about Dominic. How did you know he was a doctor?" Casper's gaze turned icy, the chilling coldness making Nova stiffen. She stammered, "Dr. Dominic... we've met before."
