Chapter 705 Eliza took a deep breath. As she let it out, her eyes dropped a little. "Casper, we actually..." "We're perfect for each other," he interrupted, not wanting to hear any of the words she might say that he dreaded. "I love you, Elle. You're the one I've chosen for eternity. I don't want anyone else but you. Please, don't leave me. Don't even entertain the thought of leaving me, okay?" He was so humble, which was surprising, given how proud and untamed he usually was. Was love really about humbling oneself? "Casper, I don't want to..." His fingers gently pressed against her rosy lips. "Let's not say anything more. We'll be okay. You're Mrs. Welton, my wife, in life and death." Eliza looked at him, swallowing back what she was about to say.
"Wait forto cback, and I'll give you an answer, okay?" He held her fingertips, which were growing colder by the second. "If you really have to go, could you at least chtonight?" She wanted to refuse. Whenever they were htogether, that awkwardness hung in the air. Even if he wasn't awkward, she felt uneasy.

It was a fierce kiss, leaving her no room to breathe as he entwined his tongue with hers. Struggling to catch her breath, she twisted her arm, "Cas... Casper..." "Chome? Chwith me, please?" His eyes were red, and his fingers tenderly brushed her swollen lips. "I miss you so much." She couldn't resist him, especially seeing how fragile he looked. Her heart softened.
"Okay." She agreed. He clutched her hand tightly, as if she might slip away. The car drove them into the Welton Estate, dropping them off before pulling away.
He led her inside, taking off her cashmere coat and hanging it up. He handed her a pair of slippers, saying, "Here, put these on." His voice held a gentle warmth, and she had grown used to his caring nature. She took the slippers and slipped them on.
Just as she was about to walk further in, he scooped her up in his arms.
She gasped, instinctively wrapping her arms around his neck. "What are you doing?" "Wherever you want to go, your husband will carry you," he said with a playful grin, his mood lifting with each simple moment.
Eliza blushed, playfully hitting his chest. "I'm not a kid. I can walk, putdown." He chuckled, holding her tighter as he made his way to the master bedroom upstairs.

Eliza lay back on the bed. It felt like forever since she'd been there, m here Everything seemed just the way she left it. Had Casper not been back either? "Casper, where have you been sleeping these days?" Eliza asked, a hint of curiosity in her voice.
"At the office," he replied, adjusting the water temperature. He stepped out, his silhouette stretching in the soft light, calm and composed. "You're on the thirteenth floor, I'm on the top floor."
So he really had been staying at the office. Eliza's gaze softened, looking at him, and her heart melted into a gentle wave of tenderness. "Why didn't you chome?" He leaned over the bed, pulling her gently into his world.
