Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 43: Little Uncle, You Don’t Recognize Me?
Unaware of what was happening, Evelyn felt truly innocent.
She originally planned to attend her classes diligently today, but Cecilia suddenly had a high-paying part-time job available, offering five hundred dollars an hour. It was extremely well-paid, and since it was her least favorite class today anyway, she simply skipped it.
"Can’t you wear something else?" Evelyn complained to Cecilia, displeased, "What on earth are these clothes?"
Cecilia, looking at Evelyn’s almost bursting chest, laughed, "This is your asset! What are you afraid of? With me here, no one will dare to bully you!"
Moreover, she had specially prepared a strapless top to help Evelyn cover those large breasts, but it seemed to have the opposite effect, making her even more enticing!
"If that thing with being force-fed alcohol happens again, I’ll throw you to the sharks!" Evelyn threatened fiercely.
"Don’t worry!" Cecilia assured her confidently, "I asked around. The people at this party are all well-known wealthy businessmen, well-mannered, not the type to act recklessly. Besides, look outside at all the rich girls, each one dressed provocatively, no one will pay any attention to us when we’re fully clothed!"
Evelyn thought about it and realized it was true. She went outside for a walk earlier, and nobody seemed to pay her any mind. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
"Alright then!" Cecilia said, looking at the fruit platter she had prepared, "Let’s take the fruit out!"
Evelyn nodded, following behind Cecilia.
After all, over the years, Cecilia had honed her self-defense skills in various part-time jobs to the point of mastery, and at this moment, probably four or five big men wouldn’t be her match.
Placing the platter on the table, Evelyn raised her eyes and saw Caden Lockwood sitting directly in front of her. Sunlight shone from behind him, making him appear almost luminous, so dazzling it was hard to keep her eyes open.
Her eyes momentarily froze, and she instinctively called out, "Unc... Uncle?"
Upon closer inspection, she noticed that he was only draped in a towel, wearing black swim trunks, his chest flaunting well-arranged, neat abs, droplets of sweat or water clinging to his tanned skin, flowing down his smooth skin and past his long legs.
He sat there like a priceless, exquisite sculpture.
Seeing Evelyn’s expression, a swift glint of secret joy flashed in Caden’s eyes, marking the first time he felt his decision to come here was right.
Julian Keaton, beside him, rubbed his forehead—as even at parties, the typically solitary Caden Lockwood was now sitting here with everyone, the intent was too obvious.
His gaze fell on Evelyn, and when he saw Cecilia beside her, his expression changed, exuding a cold authority.
Caden merely glanced at Evelyn briefly before looking away, completely as if he didn’t recognize her.
The smile unconsciously spreading on Evelyn’s face froze instantly, her lips twitching awkwardly, her eyes dazedly fixed on Caden, accepting his coldness and indifference towards her, feeling stuffy inside.
Had it only been a few days without seeing each other, and he didn’t recognize her?
Or was it, in this kind of setting, he had to pretend not to know her?
Cecilia tugged at Evelyn’s clothes, signaling her to leave quickly.
Regaining her senses, Evelyn was just about to leave when she heard someone shout, "Miss Keaton is here!"
Not far away, Eleanor Keaton emerged.
She wore a bright red bikini with light makeup, walking gracefully, each step aimed at Caden Lockwood, exuding flirtatious allure.
[PS: Please vote! The show is about to start! For sure, Eleanor will bully Evelyn, will Uncle just sit by and do nothing? Find out in the next Chapter!]
