Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 204: Don’t Worry, I Won’t Stop You from Finding Other Women

"You’re concerned about me?" Caden Lockwood’s lips curled into a lazy arch, neither a smile nor an anger.

Not hearing Evelyn Morgan’s response, Caden continued, "Didn’t you say staying with me was terrifying, that each day felt like a year, and you wished to be as far away from me as possible?"

"That was just drunk talk," Evelyn explained softly.

"And liking Logan Shaw, was that from the heart?" Caden lowered his voice, "Was it sincere?"

Unsure why there was small talk at this moment, Evelyn resignedly lowered her eyes and softly said, "No."

After hesitating for a moment, she explained further, "Logan and I are really just friends! It feels like he’s a long-lost brother, there’s a very familiar feeling."

Not hearing a response, she couldn’t help but look up and meet Caden’s gaze, softly saying, "So, please don’t hurt him! Destroying someone’s dreams is a very unethical thing to do. I don’t want you to become that kind of person."

"So, you came here to keep me from hurting him, not out of concern for me?" Caden’s tone was rough.

"Of course not!" Evelyn retorted strongly, "I came because Julian Keaton said you were about to die, and I was worried something had happened to you..."

At this point, she realized something was wrong, quickly stopped speaking, and a blush crept up her cheeks.

Hearing Evelyn’s words, Caden’s heart felt a little more at ease.

Evelyn said she and Logan were just friends and that she came because she was worried about him. He knew she was telling the truth.

This woman was not naturally a good liar. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He loved seeing her flustered like a scared fawn, so innocent, so pure, her beautiful eyes clear as if they could cleanse this filthy world.

He took her hand and pulled her closer to him.

Seeing her walking awkwardly, his brows furrowed, and he asked urgently, "What’s wrong? Did you fall?"

She shook her head, "No."

As she tried to step back, he instead pulled her to sit down and lifted her foot to inspect it closely.

Her ankle was swollen like a bun, with a big bruise.

"Are you a pig?" He looked up and glared at her, "How did your foot get swollen like this? Hmm? Where did you fall? On your way here?"

Evelyn felt a bit embarrassed. Remembering how Caden had snapped at her at home, pushed her, and tossed away the ring, she felt very aggrieved.

"You pushed me, didn’t you?" she pouted, protesting, "And now you’re pretending to care! I’m leaving first, so I won’t get in the way of you finding other women. Goodbye!"

"Evelyn!" Caden’s voice squeezed through his teeth, and he tightened his grip on her wrist, "Just try leaving, see what happens."

"You’re out of line!" Evelyn was annoyed, "You’re the one who wanted a divorce! I’ve already signed the divorce agreement, and now you won’t let me go? What do you take me for?"

"I wanted a divorce?" A deep something flashed in Caden’s eyes, "What’s going on? When did I say I wanted a divorce? Didn’t you send me a divorce agreement to sign?"

"No, I didn’t!" Evelyn shook her head, her beautiful face full of confusion, "You had Miss Dunn give me the divorce papers and told me to sign and leave! You bought out a restaurant to entertain your girlfriend... that was her, right?"

The more she spoke, the more she probed.

She was urgently trying to find out if Shannon Dunn was his girlfriend.
