His Destructive, Toxic Love

Rose was technically alive, with her heart still beating, but for all intents and purposes, she was gone. Aaron called Eliza, urging her to make the heartbreaking decision to take Rose off life support and end her suffering. Reluctantly, Eliza agreed.

But the day before they were supposed to disconnect the machines, something unimaginable happened-Rose was stolen. The only logical reason for taking a brain-dead patient was to harvest her organs. Eliza wasted no time and went straight to the police, naming Nova as the suspect.

Nova had just finished giving her statement in the interrogation room when Casper stepped in to take her home. Eliza, seething with anger, blocked their way. "You can't just leave! Nova, where did you take my mom? How many more terrible things are you planning to do before you stop?"

"Why can't I leave if the police said I could?" Nova clung to Casper's arm, playing the victim. "Casper, look at how aggressive Eliza is. She's always misunderstanding me. You know I'm too scared to do what she's accusing me of."

"Nova, cut the act. You weren't this weak when you tried to stab me," Eliza shot back, her eyes blazing as she marched up to Nova. "Tell me, where's my mom?"

"How could she have kidnapped anyone? She doesn't even have a place to stay," Casper defended Nova, pushing Eliza aside. "Do you have any proof?"

"What kind of person is she? You saw her with the knife. She's not scared of anything!" Eliza felt utterly helpless but clung to Nova's arm. "Did you do this with someone else? Because I didn't agree, you went and stole her, didn't you?"

Nova shrieked in panic, trying to hide in Casper's arms. "Casper, it wasn't me, I swear... Eliza is terrifying..."

"Nova, enough! Just tell me where you've hidden her..."

Eliza's grip tightened, and Nova played the victim even more, seeking refuge in Casper's embrace.

"Can't you just stop?" Casper, in one. swift motion, pushed Eliza away. His strength sent her stumbling back until she fell, hitting her head hard enough to black out momentarily.

Realizing his mistake, Casper moved to help her, but Nova clung to him, sobbing. "Casper... my heart feels so uneasy. Let's just go home."

Just then, a police officer appeared and helped Eliza to a chair. Casper took the opportunity to leave with Nova.

"Don't worry. We'll find her eventually. If there's any evidence pointing to Nova, we won't let the guilty go unpunished," the officer assured her. Eliza nodded, defeated. "Thank you."

She had a painful lump on her head but no external bleeding. But right now, that was the least of her worries, Sitting on the steps outside the police station, she felt utterly lost. This had to be connected to Nova. Her gut feeling couldn't be Wrong.

Three days later, Rose was found in a pond at a park, her body swollen and unrecognizable. She also had several unsewn wounds. They took her to the morgue at Wellness Medical Center.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

reach the morgue. The sight of Rose's mutilated body was something even he, a stranger, couldn't bear. He feared what it would do to Eliza.

"Eliza, please, calm down," he pleaded.

With tears streaming down her face, Eliza resisted. "Let me go. I need to see my mom..."
