His Destructive, Toxic Love

Aaron and Casper had been best friends since childhood. They grew up together and attended the same schools. Their bond seemed unbreakable. But was there something Eliza didn't know that had come between them? She needed to get to the bottom of it. Eliza's reminder brought back a long-buried memory for Caroline. "They were indeed close... Aaron once had a fiancée-she was a dear friend of mine. She jumped from a building a few days before their wedding... and she was pregnant." Eliza was stunned. She had never heard a word about this. Aaron had never mentioned it, nor had Casper. What kind of woman was she, and what pushed her to such a desperate act?

"Was Casper involved...?" Eliza asked, her voice trembling.

Years had passed, and Caroline was hesitant to revisit the past. Her eyes showed a mix of pain and sorrow. "Her name was May. We were very close. A few days before she jumped, she came to me several times in complete agony. She said she had seen Aaron's dark side and couldn't bring herself to marry him. But she couldn't bear to abort the child either; she was utterly lost."Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

"She said she loved him but couldn't accept his wild ways. She was losing sleep over it..."

To Caroline, Aaron seemed like he had a split personality. On the surface, he was the heir to the Martin family, a doctor with a bright future, always polished and polite. But...

May had confided in Caroline about Aaron's secret life. He threw wild parties with men and women, naked gatherings, and even more twisted activities. May was a reserved woman; she couldn't accept this. She had tried everything-reasoning, arguing, fighting, even begging-but nothing worked. A leopard doesn't change its spots.

Caroline sighed deeply, unable to continue. Eliza could feel the hopelessness that must have consumed May.

Caroline took a sip of water and

continued, "I told her to call off the wedding, that it wasn't worth it. But she became obsessed, and eventually, she commited suicide. When she did, she screamed, 'Casper, I love you,' and I think that's When the rift between Aaron and

Casper began."

Eliza was baffled. Why would May declare her love for another man in her dying moments? Could it be... "Were May and Casper...?"

"May and Casper weren't close. I'm

not just saying this to defend Casper, but as far as I know, there was nothing between them. She must have been out of her mind in her final moments," Caroline speculated.

Eliza got it now. Aaron had harbored a deep-seated grudge against Casper because of May's last words. It seemed Aaron had been biding his time, waiting to make Casper experience the same pain he had felt. Brock was his first target, and what was even scarier was that this was probably just the beginning. Aaron's vengeance could very well turn towards her next.

Thinking this a chill ran down Eliza's

spine, cold dread settling in her heart. "I need to find a safer and more private preschool for my son. I

can't let Aaron get anywhere on. I

him, can't take the risk of what he might do next."

Caroline offered her help. "I have a friend who runs a preschool. It's a joint venture and has top-notch security. If you want, I can arrange it."

"That would be amazing. As long as it's safe, I don't mind the cost. Thank you."

"So, you really don't plan on telling Casper about your son's parentage?"
