Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Cecilia Lynch tried to press her ear against the door of the hospital room, wanting to hear what Julian Keaton and her mother were talking about inside, but she couldn’t hear anything.

She was really worried that Julian would have a conflict with her mother.

If her mother said anything unpleasant, Julian would definitely fly into a rage!

Cecilia shook her head, trying to calm herself down.

Julian was eager to gain her mother’s approval, even if her mother really said something unpleasant, Julian should endure it!

If he couldn’t even manage that, it would really disappoint her!

Cecilia paced back and forth at the door of the room, waiting for Julian to come out, but time seemed to be against her, passing extraordinarily slowly.

It was only about ten minutes, but Cecilia felt like a century had passed so slowly.

Finally, the door of the room opened.

Before Cecilia could ask how Julian and her mother had talked, he suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her, and spun her around.

Then, she heard Julian cheerfully exclaim: "Cece! Your mom agreed to us being together! She agreed! Cece! We can get married! From now on, you’re never allowed to leave me!"

Hearing Julian’s words, Cecilia’s breath hitched, and then her tears fell uncontrollably.

Mom... agreed?

Cecilia had thought that her mother would never agree!

"Julian, put me down first." Cecilia said urgently, "Let me go first!"

"No!" Julian shook his head, "Cece, your mom agreed, and you still want me to let you go?" His voice was both displeased and playfully stubborn.

"Julian!" Cecilia raised her voice, with a tone that indicated necessity.

Julian had no choice but to gently put Cecilia down, then said discontentedly: "Are you that reluctant to hold me a little longer?"

Listening to Julian’s complaining tone, Cecilia couldn’t help but laugh.

She wiped the tears from her face, then took Julian’s hand and walked into the room.

Just hearing him say her mother agreed was not enough to set her mind at ease.

She had to ask her mother in person.

Walking straight to her mother’s side, Cecilia asked again: "Mom, did you agree to me and Julian being together? Really?"

Mrs. Lynch sighed, looking at Cecilia, then at Julian, and spoke helplessly: "You two are so determined, if I refuse no matter what, wouldn’t I just become an obstacle for you?"

As she spoke, Mrs. Lynch held Cecilia’s hand, and then softly continued: "If your relationship needs a blessing, mom’s blessing is full and all for you. I just hope you’ve found someone who can truly make you happy. I wish for your pain and sorrow to be less, and for you to quickly live a happy life."

"Auntie, rest assured, I will do my utmost to make Cece happy, and we will be filial to you together!" Julian promised.

Cecilia looked at Julian and said softly: "Are you still calling her Auntie?"

Julian was taken aback, then quickly corrected himself: "Mom!"

Mrs. Lynch looked at Cecilia. If her concession could bring happiness to her daughter, she was certainly willing.

But she worried—the Keaton Family on Julian’s side surely wouldn’t easily let Julian and Cecilia be together, right?

"There’s not much I can do to help you." Mrs. Lynch said gently, "I agreed so easily and it was also for selfish reasons, considering Cece. Julian, I understand your parents’ feelings, after all, Cece is indeed marrying above her station with you."
