Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

"No." Julian Keaton shook his head firmly, "Mom, Cece is in no way inferior! Being able to marry her is my blessing!"

"Even though Julian’s parents don’t recognize you now, you mustn’t hold a grudge, and you must be filial to them, understand?" Mrs. Lynch advised, "After all, they are the parents of the man you love."

Cecilia Lynch nodded, "Mom, don’t worry, I will."

Mrs. Lynch sighed heavily. Her health was poor, and she couldn’t work for too long. Soon after, she fell asleep.

Cecilia Lynch nestled in Julian Keaton’s arms, the two curled up on the sofa, sharing identical expressions of happiness.

"Cece," Julian Keaton’s voice carried excitement, "pinch me; I always feel like I’m dreaming!"

Cecilia Lynch couldn’t help but laugh. She pinched Julian Keaton’s waist hard, then smilingly asked, "Does it hurt?"

"Yes, it hurts." Julian Keaton tightened his arms, holding Cecilia Lynch even closer, "But even though it hurts, I still don’t dare to fully believe all this is real!"

"It’s definitely real!" Cecilia Lynch raised her little face to look at Julian Keaton, "Julian, my mom agreed for us to be together!"

Julian Keaton lightly kissed Cecilia Lynch’s red lips and softly said, "I will make sure you all live well!"

"But..." Cecilia Lynch couldn’t help but feel puzzled, "What did you say to my mom? Why would she agree for us to be together? She was always so against it before."

"Because she loves you." Julian Keaton chuckled lightly, "And you told her that you love me and don’t want to leave me, making it hard for her to bear seeing you suffer."

As he finished speaking, looking at Cecilia Lynch’s shy face, Julian Keaton couldn’t help but continue, "Cece, I just realized how much you love me!"

Though Cecilia Lynch was shy, she did not dodge Julian Keaton’s intense gaze.

She looked into Julian Keaton’s eyes and spoke confidently, "I love you, Julian. I really, really love you!"

"I love you too." Julian Keaton embraced Cecilia Lynch tightly, "Love you more than you love me!"

Cecilia Lynch savored the intimacy of being with Julian Keaton.

She knew that there would be many challenges ahead with Julian Keaton.

But having one more person blessing them felt like they were one step closer to happiness.

She was determined to earn the approval of Julian Keaton’s parents, and then live life well!

Cecilia Lynch’s eyes shone brightly, as if recharged with energy, sure that the storm was passing, and soon, everything would settle peacefully...

Days seemed to pass quietly yet meaningfully.

Evelyn Morgan didn’t bother Cecilia Lynch and Julian Keaton, just honestly enjoying the rest of her summer break in the villa.

This life was too comfortable; she even didn’t want to study anymore.

She might as well stay home and have a few kids with Caden Lockwood, feeling lazy and content without worrying about life.

Whenever she had this thought, Evelyn Morgan’s cheeks would flush red.

She lay on the balcony lounge chair, still feeling sore all over.

Caden Lockwood, whenever in the mood, would exercise with her enthusiastically, making her spend most of her time in bed.

Not just the bed!

Balcony, sofa, bathroom, even the desk—what part of this room hadn’t witnessed their energetic workouts?

Her mind conjured up indulgent and blush-inducing images, and Evelyn Morgan quickly covered her face, not daring to face the sunlight.

Her married life with Caden Lockwood seemed... excessively harmonious!

At that moment, the sound of a car pulling in reached her ears.

Evelyn Morgan immediately put down her hands, assuming it was Caden Lockwood returning. Getting up, she was surprised to see Cecilia Lynch getting out of the car.

Evelyn Morgan held her breath; she hadn’t contacted Cecilia Lynch since they came back from the hospital.

However, knowing through Caden Lockwood that Cecilia Lynch had received her mother’s blessing, Evelyn Morgan felt relieved.
