Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 215: The Truth Is So Cruel to Her

James Lockwood sat on the chair, and when he saw Caden Lockwood come in, he said coldly, "Have you forgotten the most basic etiquette of knocking?"

"The chairman is talking to me about etiquette?" Caden Lockwood’s lips curled into a very cold, very cold arc, "Isn’t that laughable?"

"Caden Lockwood!" James Lockwood raised his voice, "Watch your tone when you speak to me!"

"The chairman is becoming increasingly unrefined in his actions." Caden Lockwood’s eyes slightly narrowed, the light shining from them was cold and chilling, "Such sneaky dealings, I thought the chairman always despised them."

James Lockwood glared at Caden Lockwood, "I’m your father!"

"Don’t tarnish that word." Caden Lockwood’s emotions were somewhat agitated, "What have you done for your wife and son? What qualifies you to think you can enjoy the blessings of your grandchildren?"

"Angry?" James Lockwood clenched his fist, "I asked you to divorce Evelyn Morgan, and you... got angry?"

He chuckled and added, "Caden Lockwood, do you know what you’re doing? Have you really... fallen for her?"

Upon hearing this, Caden Lockwood’s eyebrows tightened, and something deep flashed in his eyes.

Fallen for Evelyn Morgan?

This question, he had been asked before.

Even Evelyn Morgan herself had asked him.

Whenever he thought of Evelyn Morgan’s pure eyes, her longing for love, his heart felt as if pierced by needles, aching fiercely.

"Caden Lockwood, you seem a bit confused now, I’ll give you a reminder." James Lockwood’s tone was calm, "Evelyn Morgan is not a woman you can touch; if you insist on defying me and being with her, don’t blame me for going to her in person to discuss the matter between you two."

"Just try it." Caden Lockwood glared at James Lockwood, "If you dare touch her, I will retaliate tenfold, a hundredfold!"

"Are you formally opposing me?" James Lockwood asked, something swift flashed in his eyes.

"You won’t want that outcome." Caden Lockwood stepped forward, the coldness around him growing more formidable, highlighting the ruthless indifference, "So don’t disturb her."

"Even if I don’t speak, how long can you hide the secret of adopting her?" James Lockwood asked coolly, "If she learns the truth, how cruel would it be for her?"

"Enough!" Caden Lockwood clenched his fist, his handsome cold demeanor showing signs of breaking.

He glared at James Lockwood, enunciating each word slowly, "I will handle my own matters, I don’t need your pretentiousness!"

"As your father, I am giving you heartfelt advice." James Lockwood lowered his tone, "Caden Lockwood, you understand well, I don’t want the ultimate outcome, but equally, neither do you!"

After hearing what James Lockwood said, Caden Lockwood stood in place, his face turning from pale to green, then black.

The cold, oppressive aura surrounded him, as if the entire world suddenly became gloomy, and his whole being radiated an intimidating force not to be provoked, with an intense pressure emanating from wherever his gaze landed.

Evelyn Morgan...

Such a simple and beautiful girl, she was brought into his world when he himself hadn’t even fully considered it.

Now, sending her away, he was unwilling.

Not sending her away, she would be at risk.

Promises, those elusive things, amidst a life filled with too many unknowns, were something he couldn’t give.

His large hand clenched into a fist, thick blue veins bulging, he closed his eyes for a moment, slowly let out a breath, his face returned to coldness, seemingly having made up his mind.
