Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 56: Signing a Fitness-Boosting Contract

"Cough... cough cough cough—" Evelyn spluttered and coughed.

Her face flushed red as she looked at Caden Lockwood, involuntarily associating his words with the efforts he puts in to earn money.

Images she shouldn’t have, ones that made her embarrassed, flashed in her mind. She quickly shook her head to stop herself from thinking deeper.

Right now, there’s a super tough problem in front of her—if she didn’t work for him, he would have to go to school.

Even if she escaped well, she couldn’t get away from the possibility of meeting him every day.

After thinking it over, continuing to work here seemed to be the way to slightly ease the situation!

So annoying!

How did it end up that no matter what, she was completely cornered by him?

Yet, temporarily she couldn’t think of a better solution.

"Hehe, Uncle!" Evelyn spoke resignedly, "Um... I’ve been thinking, working hard academically and keeping fit aren’t mutually exclusive! See, by working for you, I’m getting great physical exercise. If I just give up now, I’ll definitely regret it later!"

Saying these disingenuous words almost tied Evelyn’s tongue in knots.

"So, I’ve decided to stay and work hard, develop holistically and become a socially beneficial university student!" Evelyn declared with a sworn tone.

Upon hearing this, the corners of Caden Lockwood’s lips twitched into an enigmatic smile, as he smoothly spoke, "Bring the paper and pen."

Evelyn nodded, respectfully handing him the paper and pen.

Caden shook his head, "I’ll recite, you write."

"Oh."

Evelyn responded, casually sitting on the floor, then glanced at Caden indicating he could start.

"From today onwards," Caden’s tone was unhurried, his voice deep and mellow, exceptionally captivating, "I will remain here as a household member, dedicated, hardworking, diligent, because, it allows my body to receive excellent exercise. No matter what happens, I will surely not regret the decision made today, and if I do, the penalty is one million."

Evelyn looked up at Caden, her mouth twitching as she asked, "This is?"

"A contract," Caden’s eyes flashed something deep, "A good contract for staying fit."

Meeting Caden’s gaze, Evelyn suddenly shivered. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

The phrase "staying fit" coming from his mouth felt oddly off?

"I..."

"Sign your own name," Caden instructed, "Then I’ll sign."

"Well..." Evelyn felt guilty, "I..."

"A satisfying household member is not easy to find," Caden said lightly, "If you casually say you won’t do it like today, I will have to start looking again, wasting a lot of time."

Evelyn nodded, feeling that what he said made sense.

Also, he said he would sign too?

Does that mean she’ll know his full name?

Feeling inexplicably excited!

No, it’s just a name; why was she excited?

Once she signs the contract with him, it will be hard to resign in the future!

"No way!" Evelyn shook her head, "This contract is too hasty! It doesn’t even specify a term, just binds me not to resign, and if I do, I have to pay one million? Uncle, this is extortion! After graduation, I surely can’t keep working part-time? I want a proper job!"

Caden raised his eyebrows, retorting, "Being my household member isn’t a proper job?"

"I mean a stable job, one... that matches my degree!" Evelyn hastily replied.

"You can do this part-time job for a lifetime," Caden said softly, "You won’t lose out."

[PS: Uncle plans to bind Erin Morgan for life here! On my turf, you have to listen to me~ hahaha~]
