Chapter 541 "Her complexion looks way better than before." Her voice was probing, her eyes glued to his, trying to catch every little change in his expression. "And her cheeks are looking fuller, don't you think?" "What are you getting at?" He knew she was holding something back.

Caroline cut to the chase, "Looking at Eliza now, I can't help but wonder if she's pregnant." Casper felt like he'd been hit by a freight train. Pregnant? The news blindsided him.

Who's the dad? Him? Or...? A whirlwind of emotions flashed through his eyes-shock, confusion, and even a tiny flicker of hope and panic. Caroline noticed that Casper was just as clueless as she was.

"She's starting to show a bit, probably about five months along. I'd say... this baby could very well be yours." His face was a mask of calm, but his eyes betrayed disbelief and a surge of excitement.

Caroline stepped closer, her worry clear, "If she's really carrying your child, can you just stand by and watch her raise it alone? Brock's already four, growing up without a dad. Do you want your second kid to start life labeled as a posthumous child?" Casper's lashes drooped, his hands, scarred by fire, clutched his masked face.

No way did he want his kid to grow up facing discrimination and bullying. But in his current state, what right did he have to face Eliza? She wouldn't accept him like this. He was a shadow of his former self, with no reason to show up. "What can I do?" His voice was filled with pain.

Caroline felt for him, but she couldn't stand him shutting himself away anymore. Even if he was someone Eliza wouldn't recognize, she needed to know he was still alive. "You should go see her." "See her?" He let out a bitter laugh.

"You think she'd be happy to seelike this? She'd probably wish I were dead. I'd just be a burden. She and cherish her, and that end deserves someone who can love person can't beanymore." Caroline couldn't tell if he truly wanted Eliza to find happiness with someone else. She didn't know if there was anyone treating Eliza well right now. If there was someone who'd truly won her heart, she would've let him in by now. But it didn't seem like there was.

W! "Do you really want her to marry someone else, taking your kids with her?" She doubted her brother had it in him to let that happen.

Casper lowered his head, gently pulling off his mask. The side of his once dashing face, a face that had made him the talk of Falconridge, was now scarred beyond recognition.

"Do you really think, looking like this, I have any right to stop her from marrying?" He asked, his smile full of self- deprecation and heartbreak.

Caroline's eyes welled up. If Casper and Eliza had been deeply in love maybe she could accept him as he was. But...

Their relationship was only just starting to mend, and their feelings were still growing. She wasn't sure if Eliza could handle seeing him like this. "Casper, you can get treatment. With today's medical advances, I'm sure things can get better." She didn't want him to hide away forever. He couldn't stay in the shadows forever.

Casper looked out the window.

Maybe he really could stay hidden watching Eliza marry, have kids, and N.O live a lifetwith someone else. He could handle that. He had to be ready for that outcome. "Enough, just go."
