His Destructive, Toxic Love

"Hey, I know you've got some skills. Can you find out how Nova got her hands on Robin's sperm? I need solid evidence, something that would hold up in court for defamation."

Eliza had considered teaming up with Zach to take down Casper. But right now, her chances weren't looking too good.

Nova, on the other hand, was a different story. Eliza already had a recording of Nova slandering her for arson. If Eliza could also get proof of Nova falsely accusing Robin of rape, she'd definitely drag her to court.

"That's easy," Zach raised an eyebrow. "But what's in it for me?"

"What do you want in return? Just say it," she tilted her head up before he could respond. "And don't mention anything about Casper."

Zach chuckled. "How about you be my lover for a couple of days? How does that sound?"

Eliza froze for a moment, her finger lightly tapping Zach's chest. "Mr. Zach, do you have a death wish?"

"If you don't tell, and I don't tell, who's gonna know?" He opened his arms to embrace her, but Eliza forcefully pushed him away. "Mr. Zach, if you aren't willing to help, then forget it." "Casper's out here trying to harvest your mom's kidney, and you're still playing the good girl for him?" Zach lit a cigarette and brought it to his lips. "He clearly doesn't see you as a person." "Looks like you're not willing to help, Mr. Zach."

Fine, she'd find someone else. There were plenty of private investigators. It'd just take more effort and more money.

As Eliza turned to leave, Zach grabbed her wrist. "I'll help you and won't ask for payment."

"You must want something. A clean deal is best; that way, no one owes anyone anything. If you don't want a payment, I won't hire you."

"You've got... personality." He smiled, removing the cigarette from his lips. "That's what I like about you."

Taking advantage of her unguarded moment, he kissed her on the face.

Eliza was furious, raising her hand to hit him, but he caught her wrist. "The payment's been made. I'll send you the info once I find it."

Eliza glared at him. Without another word, she turned and left.

Zach smiled, walked over to the windowsitt, and took out his phone to call Casper. "The scent of lavender on Eliza... It's truly irresistible. Bro, I'm really jealous of yout."

Casper slammed his phone down in anger. "Dillon, bring Eliza to me."

"Understood."

Eliza had just walked out of the studio when Dillon courteously invited her into a car.

Casper's face was grim as he ordered, "You two, wait outside the car."

Dillon and the driver got out.

The privacy screen was raised, and Eliza's heart began to thump with unease.

"So, you're here to see Zach?" His voice was low but made Eliza's heart tremble. "You've been following me?"

"I've been following you." He didn't shy away, his fingertips gripping her chin forcefully. "Tell me, what did you do with Zach?"

Eliza didn't want to say. She turned her face away, but he forcibly twisted it back. "Eliza, you'd better not waste the chance I'm giving you."

"Chance?" Eliza looked bitterly into

Casper's eyes. "What chance? Letting my mom become brain-dead

to give Nova a kidney? Is thatyour idea of a chance?"

He paused, his fingertips halting. Words of explanation reached his lips, and then he swallowed them back.

there to discuss this with her. "Eliza,

I've told you, Zach is bad news Why do you insist on getting involved with him?"

Eliza had no desire to explain. Would he be willing to understand if she told him she had hired Zach to investigate Nova?

No, of course, he wouldn't. He might even retaliate against her. Why bother?

"Speak," he roared.

Eliza calmly watched his outburst. "What do you want me to say? That I just slept with Zach? That we did what in bed? That I and he..."
