Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 20: My Woman’s Market Value Isn’t Bad
The warm air from the burning candles and the fragrance of roses made the atmosphere particularly ambiguous. Evelyn’s senior, Finn Lewis, sat in the center of a big heart shape, holding a guitar, singing and playing: "Little palms, thick warmth, you always manage to soothe my uneasy nights. Dreams that I dare not think of, through your eyes, I finally see, using them ahead, no one can take you away from me. You are my exclusive angel, only I can possess..."
Finn Lewis kept his eyes on Evelyn. There were many people around, but in his eyes, there was only her. While singing, every word was directed at her.
"Evelyn, I am about to start my internship soon. For the past two years since I met you, I’ve been captivated by your every move. When you smile, I’m happy; when you cry, I feel heartbroken. I don’t want to miss you. I love you, be with me! I will strive to give you a happy home! We will never be separated!" Finn shouted excitedly.
Evelyn trembled in surprise and took a few steps back, her mind completely failing to catch up.
Finn Lewis was famous in school as a talented guy, with a sunny and handsome look. He was skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and many girls pursued him.
And now, is he confessing to her?
The bright colors of the sunset bathed the earth, reflecting Evelyn’s confusion and panic in her eyes.
All the classmates around started to jeer, urging Evelyn to accept this happiness meant exclusively for her.
Putting down the guitar, Finn Lewis walked up to Evelyn with a bouquet of red roses in his hands, softly saying, "Evelyn, be my girlfriend!"
"Se... senior..." Evelyn’s palms were sweating, "I..."
She never thought Finn Lewis liked her.
The confession came too suddenly, and with such a grand gesture, she was completely stunned.
"Believe me, I genuinely care about you," Finn said urgently, "Evelyn, everyone is watching, just accept my roses and try being with me. No one will feel awkward!"
Evelyn blinked, looking at the fiery red roses in front of her and the words on the ground surrounded by classmates’ envious eyes, but inside she was anxious.
She had no feelings for Finn that surpassed friendship.
But now, what kind of reason could she come up with that wouldn’t hurt him?
The more anxious she was, the more flustered she became, her mind went blank, and she couldn’t think of anything.
"Evelyn," Finn urged, "agree to be with me!"
"Yeah! Say yes to him!"
"If you don’t take such a good man now, you’ll regret it in the future!"
"So romantic! If a guy confessed to me like this, I’d probably be so happy I’d faint!"
Everyone continued to urge her, eager even more than Evelyn herself.
Evelyn looked at those people, desperate to find a hole to crawl into.
She swore that next time she saw a crowd by the school gate, she’d go the other way!
Just when Evelyn was at a loss for what to do, a strong chill swept in, and next she was pulled into someone’s embrace.
Her head bumped into a broad chest, and this posture felt so familiar to her.
Raised her eyes, when she saw Caden Lockwood’s handsome face without any expression, Evelyn completely froze.
How... how did he come here?
Caden tilted his head slightly, his arrogant and proud dark eyes flashed with a hint of mockery, staring at Finn Lewis with the roses in his hand, his deep voice slowly and slowly uttered: "My woman, seems pretty popular!"
