Slowly Falling into His Love Trap-Chapter 64: Holding Her in His Arms, Tight

Hearing the words, Caden Lockwood’s heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his handsome face gradually faded. He pressed his lips into a line, remaining silent.

The woman in front of him seemed so frail, yet suddenly exuded an overwhelming aura, a strong determination to follow through on her words.

Thinking about how vast the world is, and how he truly wouldn’t be able to find her once electronic devices fail, he felt a stifling sensation in his heart, even catching a hint of unprecedented panic.

Caden stared intently at Evelyn Morgan, his gaze fixed on her face as if trying to pin her down, making sure she’d never escape.

The atmosphere thus became tense, the air so heavy that even breathing was difficult.

Evelyn sat back against the car door, rendered stiff under his gaze, finding even the slightest movement strenuous.

Was what she just said too harsh?

However, if her life turned upside down because of him, she would definitely keep her distance and never get close again.

She just wanted a bit of peace and stability in her life!

Facing Evelyn’s scrutiny, Caden parted his thin lips, just about to speak when his phone rang.

His brows furrowed, and he took out the phone to see it was a call from his father.

The relationship between him and his father relied entirely on the company; his father would never call him unless it was something important.

It seems something big is about to happen!

Pressing the answer button, Caden’s expression turned exceptionally dark.

"Come back when you have time." Mr. Lockwood’s tone was light and indifferent, neither a command nor an invitation.

Glancing at Evelyn beside him, a deep and complex meaning flashed in Caden’s eyes. He moved his thin lips and uttered a simple syllable: "Alright."

He had long known his father would reach out to him.

It’s just that delaying for several days is unlike his father’s style! 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

It was a very simple call, with no unnecessary content.

Evelyn stared blankly at Caden; she had never seen anyone end a phone call with just one word.

She couldn’t help but be curious, who was the person calling her uncle?

Could it be some rich lady?

Judging by her uncle’s serious expression, it felt like something was up.

"I’m giving you the night off," Caden’s tone was quite indulgent, "You don’t have to clean at my place."

"Sheesh!" Evelyn rolled her eyes at Caden, "You’ve got something important tonight, and I’m inconvenient to disturb, right?"

She smiled playfully and continued, "I get it! Hahaha—Uncle, honestly, I hope you have inconvenient days like this every day, so I can slack off all the time!"

Seeing the smile curve on Evelyn’s lips, Caden felt a tingling in his palm, wanting to touch her soft red lips, and then press a deep kiss onto them.

"Isn’t it inappropriate to reveal your lazy intentions in front of your boss?" Caden’s expression was very relaxed, with a laid-back enjoyment between his brows, "Erin Morgan, be careful, I might deduct your salary."

"No way!" Evelyn reacted strongly, "It’s not me slacking off; it’s you not letting me. How can you dock my pay? You evil capitalist, can’t you stop exploiting us poor commoners!"

Seeing Evelyn’s miserly expression, Caden couldn’t help but laugh out loud, the laughter spilling out from his throat, low and pleasant, full of charm.

Reaching out, he no longer restrained his simple desire to be close to her, pulling her into his arms and holding her tightly.
