Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 38: All Right, I’ll Come Save My Little Wife
"I..." Evelyn wanted to cry, "I don’t know."
"Even if he’s not your husband, you just said he’s your little uncle, and now, you don’t even know his name?" The principal was clearly angry.
Evelyn stood in place, feeling helpless, scared, powerless, and frustrated, wishing time would turn back. She definitely wouldn’t have gone to see Finn Lewis’s confession.
If she hadn’t, none of this would have happened!
Seeing Evelyn silent, the principal softened his voice: "How about this, you bring him here, and I’ll ask him face to face."
"Principal!" Evelyn’s eyes widened, "Isn’t that... inappropriate? He was just helping me..."
"Miss Morgan, you should know, this matter is getting a huge reaction on the school forum. You even posted a challenge post, and now it’s all in uproar. If you don’t bring him here, you’re affecting my work. The scholarship selection isn’t based solely on grades." The principal half threatened, half persuaded.
Hearing the principal’s words, Evelyn’s face instantly turned ashen.
If only she had pretended to be sick and hid in the hospital.
After all, hiding for a few days is better than nothing.
She was really having a bad day!
Could it be that the principal already knows about her little uncle’s profession, so he’s pressuring her like this?
Faced with the principal and the homeroom teacher’s piercing gaze, Evelyn had no choice but reluctantly say, "I’ll make a call to ask him."
Outside the office, Evelyn originally intended to lie about her little uncle being unavailable, but after thinking it over, what if things got to Aunt May? It would be even harder to manage.
She had no choice but to call Caden Lockwood.
After all, he’s seen a lot, is wiser, and might know how to handle this.
At the time, Caden Lockwood was in a meeting. Seeing the incoming call from Evelyn, he signaled for the meeting to pause and stepped out to take the call.
The attendees glanced at each other in surprise. How many years have they been attending meetings, and when have they ever seen Caden Lockwood leave a meeting for a phone call?
Moreover, just now, when he looked at his phone, there was a subtle hint of a smile on his lips.
No matter how big the company’s orders are, how high the achievements, they’ve never seen The First Young Master Lockwood smile.
What’s happening today?
Could it be, the company secretly signed a gigantic order and is about to make a fortune?
Caden Lockwood walked to the viewing platform, gazing at towering skyscrapers, the breeze ruffling his hair, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.
Pressing the call button, he casually parted his lips: "Miss me?" His voice was deep, rich, and incredibly charming.
Evelyn’s breath hitched, her cheeks instantly flushed red, no time for shyness, she urgently spoke: "Little Uncle, something’s happened! The principal’s asking me all sorts of questions about your identity and profession, and I can’t answer any of them! Can you come and save me? And also, make sure your profession doesn’t get exposed!"
Caden Lockwood raised an eyebrow, the principal wanting to know his identity is simply about money, trying to figure out his background.
In essence, the principal doesn’t want to miss any opportunities for sponsorship, right?
"Alright." Caden Lockwood responded, "I’m coming to save my little wife."
"Hey!" Evelyn was angry, "Little Uncle, can you stop joking around at a time like this? I’m not your wife; we’re not married! I’m already scared enough!"
"Silly girl." Caden Lockwood chuckled and shook his head, "Wait for me; I’ll be there soon."
