Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 153: How Far She Would Go for Him

Clearly, there was a place to take shelter from the rain, yet Evelyn remained motionless, her small figure standing tall, her face full of determination.

Even she didn’t know why she was being so stubborn.

She thought that maybe, once Caden Lockwood saw her looking pitiful and disheveled, he might soften his heart towards her.

She was so confused.

Why did she think that this appearance would make him sympathetic?

Lightly biting her thin lips, she felt anxious and uneasy.

Would he actually come out to see her?

The rain mercilessly drenched her entire body. She stood trembling in the wind and rain, cold to the bone.

Even though it was summer, this kind of sudden thunderstorm was still overwhelming.

Holding her arms tightly together, she gazed expectantly at the company’s entrance, where hardly anyone came out.

The place she stood allowed her to see the elevators inside the company. As soon as the elevator doors opened, her heart would race and her eyes would fill with secret delight.

But whenever the person stepping out of the elevator wasn’t who she wished to see, her heart would slowly sink, and her gaze would turn into a dead silence.

Everyone passing by her would glance at her.

In those glances, there was sympathy, confusion, and even deep disdain.

The slender and fragile body couldn’t withstand the assault of wind, rain, and lightning. Lightly biting her lips, the longer she stood, the more difficult it became to breathe.

Her body seemed to be struck by an invisible force, making it feel like she was about to collapse.

But she couldn’t let that happen.

What if Caden Lockwood was in a meeting now, and once the meeting was over, he came out to see her?

She knew he was someone with a tough facade but a soft heart; he definitely wouldn’t avoid seeing her!

The light in her eyes alternated between disappointment and hope, her frail body exuding a stubborn determination. She clenched her fists, holding onto her beliefs, her lips always carrying a faint smile.

Caden Lockwood sat in his office chair, his handsome face devoid of expression, his dark eyes filled with intense coldness, freezing everything his gaze touched, keeping everyone at a distance.

He couldn’t concentrate on work at all; his mind was consumed with thoughts about Evelyn, wondering to what extent she would go for Logan Shaw.

After who knows how long, Sean Ashton hurried in saying, "Boss, the boss’s wife is downstairs in the rain, wanting to see you."

Earlier, he received a message from security saying that a woman stubbornly refused to leave, claiming to be "Mrs. Lockwood," with Caden Lockwood’s number on her phone, standing outside the company in the rain, refusing to move despite persuasion.

Security was worried something might happen, so they let Sean Ashton take a look.

Sean Ashton saw that it was indeed Evelyn.

Aware of the conflict between the boss and the boss’s wife, it was not appropriate for him to handle it privately, so Sean Ashton came to report quickly.

"Downstairs? In the rain?" Caden Lockwood frowned, "Is she tired of living?"

As he spoke, he rose to his feet, his expression showing panic and pity, and he rushed over to the window, leaning out to look down. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Boss," Sean Ashton softly said, "the boss’s wife is a young girl, physically weak, so... it’s more suitable for you to take her to the hospital."

Listening to the hidden meaning in Sean Ashton’s words, Caden Lockwood’s brows furrowed even tighter.

Caden Lockwood’s office was on the twenties floor, from there he could see a small figure standing in front of the company entrance, her outline unclear, but he could be sure it was Evelyn.

The heavy rain fell mercilessly on her, as if pushing her into hell, and from then on, he would never find her again.
