Take it easy, Zach isn't going to make a move right away," Caleb said, quickly stepping in to steady Casper.
From what Casper knew about Zach, it was unlikely he'd just attack head-on. He was probably scheming something else already.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I need to handle this myself, and the sooner, the better." Casper changed out of his hospital gown. Despite the sharp pain in his back, he couldn't let it slow him down. He had to make sure the kids were safe. He wasn't going to give Zach any chance to hurt him or his family this time.
"Bro..." Caleb tried once more to change his mind.
But Casper was firm. "Don't bother trying to convince me. This is too important to mess up." Eliza walked over, looking worried. She wanted Casper to stay and heal, but she was also anxious about the kids' safety.
"How about I stay at the old house for a few days? You can send sextra people over. I doubt Zach would dare to cause trouble there." Casper nodded, liking her plan. "Don't worry, I'll make sure we have more people there. I won't let anything happen to you or the kids." "Are you going to meet him?" Eliza asked, gripping Casper's hand with concern. "After all that tin jail, Zach's full of resentment. He's not like before. If you push him, he might not just back down like he used to..." Desperate times call for desperate measures, and Zach was unpredictable when cornered.
"I'll be careful," he assured her, kissing her forehead. "I know what I'm doing. He won't get to me." Once Casper left the hospital, Eliza headed back to the old house. She didn't mention Zach's threats to Audrey to keep her from worrying.
"Mom, I've been feeling a bit off lately. I thought you could helpget back on track," she said with a smile, fabricating a reason.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAudrey was none the wiser, thinking Eliza was planning for another baby and was thrilled. "That's wonderful! I'll pick out sherbs myself. My remedies always work wonders." "Thanks, Mom." As they chatted, the nanny brought Brett out. Eliza felt a pang in her heart and quickly scooped him up. "Brett, did you miss Mommy?" "Brett's a handful, just like Casper was as a kid," Audrey said with a fond smile. "Not as easygoing as Brock." Eliza chuckled softly. "Mom, maybe Brock doesn't need to chevery day. He could stay at school for a bit." "Oh, I can't do that. I've gotten used to having him around, and I miss him too much if I don't see him daily. These two boys are my joy." Audrey adored Brock. Every meal at the old house was made by her, and she personally chose his clothes and bedding. She was hands-on with everything. Who'd have thought Audrey, who once loved her peace and quiet, would be so involved? "Winter break is around the corner, and it's getting chilly. I'm just worried about you running back and forth," Eliza said.
Audrey studied Eliza. Since Brock ehad been living at the old house,
Eliza rarely commented on atters. But now, she had plenty to say wasm something up? "Eliza, is everything okay?"
"No, Mom, it's really just that I want you to take it easy. You stil need to help get better. If you overdo it, Casper and I would be really upset."
Though Audrey wasn't fully convinced, she understood Eliza's e upspoken concerns.
"Alright, I'll take your advice."
