Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 192: Would It Kill You to Rely on Me for Once?

Looking at the sincerity in Logan Shaw’s eyes, Evelyn Morgan’s heart tightened slightly.

No matter if Logan was a big brother or not, she was determined to make this friend!

"No, I won’t." Evelyn responded, "You and Cece are my very good friends!"

"Do you want to grab something to eat?" Logan asked, "You must be starving!"

"I’m not hungry yet." Evelyn shook her head, "I’ll keep you company while you eat!"

"I’m not eating either." Logan said softly, "There’s something I need to deal with over at the performance hall, want to come along and hang out?"

"No, I won’t." Evelyn said weakly, unable to muster interest in anything, "I’ll head home on my own. You should hurry to the performance hall! You’ve been so busy and still accompanied me for so long, I..."

"I’ve already told you, don’t be so polite with me." Logan interrupted Evelyn, "You won’t let me take you home, right?"

Evelyn nodded with a smile, "Go on with your work, I’ll take the subway! I’ll call Cecilia too, she must be at her part-time job now!"

Logan nodded, and after separating from Evelyn, he turned back to look at her lonely and desolate figure, feeling a pang of sadness.

As Evelyn walked, she called Cecilia Lynch, and it rang for a long time before it was answered.

"Evelyn." Cecilia’s voice was very soft, "Are you okay?"

"I’m fine!" Evelyn sighed, "You’re at your part-time job, right? I’ll treat you to a meal another day! Did you eat lunch? You can’t keep starving, you’re already so thin, you need to take care of your health even while making money!"

"Yes, I ate. Did you?" Cecilia asked, "You were feeling down, and I couldn’t be there with you, I..."

"Oh, come on! Don’t be so formal with me, we’re closer than that!" Evelyn laughed out loud, "Go on with your work! I won’t disturb you anymore, bye-bye!"

Cecilia also said bye-bye, and after hanging up the phone, she curled up in her bed, silently shedding tears.

Just now, Julian Keaton had taken her away, forcefully taking her in the car, and then again at her home.

She was in pain, feeling wronged.

Julian Keaton lay beside Cecilia, listening to her quiet sobs, feeling restless with the urge to shout at her.

"How is being with me so wrong for you?" Julian said harshly, "Do you really want to break free from me that much?"

Cecilia bit her lip tightly, not responding, her tears soaking the pillow, making everything around her appear blurred.

Julian forced her to face him by grabbing her chin.

"You can’t think about escaping anywhere until the five-year term is up! No matter how hard it is, you have to endure it for me!" He said furiously.

Cecilia glared at Julian, only looking at him without speaking, her delicate face full of stubbornness.

Julian felt hurt.

This woman was as stubborn as a mule.

"Listen carefully, if you dare to run away while I’m not paying attention, I will find you, and then you will be doomed!" Julian threatened viciously, "Your mother’s condition—she can’t deal with your reckless actions, can she?"

At his words, Cecilia trembled violently.

She couldn’t win against Julian Keaton and could only close her eyes, not even looking at him.

Julian gritted his teeth noisily, seeing the tear stains on Cecilia’s face, his heart couldn’t completely harden.

"I’ve prepaid five hundred thousand for your mother’s medical bills, so you owe me even more now, you can’t pay it back. Don’t think about running away." He lowered his voice, "You don’t need to do so many part-time jobs. Want to work? There’s a good position at my company, you could..."

"No need." Cecilia coldly refused, "We agreed from the beginning that you wouldn’t interfere with the rest of my affairs."

"Relying on me for once is going to kill you?" Julian proclaimed gruffly, his handsome face showing his frustration and helplessness.
