Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Evelyn shrank her neck, murmuring, "It was so sudden at the time, and besides, you were a complete stranger. It was so careless of you to decide on my lifelong matter. Wouldn’t it be abnormal if I didn’t reject?"

Caden Lockwood moved closer to Evelyn, his deep and magnetic voice spilling into her ear, "I like the non-rejecting you."

His tone was full of teasing implication.

Evelyn’s cheeks reddened, her body temperature instantly rising. Her hands balled into fists, landing a light punch on Caden’s chest, her eyes evasive, not daring to meet his gaze.

She was so annoyed with herself!

Why did she have to overthink his words laden with significance?

Moreover, why did she almost immediately understand what he meant?

Truly, those who are close to ink become black!

Spending so much time with him, she was becoming more and more sullied!

Seeing Evelyn’s shy demeanor, the temporarily suppressed desire within Caden ignited once again.

Earlier at the hospital, it was because Evelyn was suspected of being pregnant that he didn’t touch her.

But now that the doctor confirmed she wasn’t pregnant, what reason did he have not to touch her?

Sensing a dangerous signal, a hint of panic flashed in Evelyn’s eyes.

She instinctively sat a bit further away from Caden, hurriedly saying, "I just had something to ask you!"

Caden leaned towards Evelyn, raising his hand to encircle her shoulders and tilt her chin to gaze into her eyes. He lazily parted his lips, "I’m listening."

Evelyn’s whole body tensed; she lowered her voice, "You... you better not try anything funny!"

"Madam is getting to know me better and better!" Caden replied proudly, "I haven’t even had a chance to do anything to you, and you already know what I’m thinking!"

"Stop fooling around!" Evelyn seized Caden’s hand to prevent him from doing anything.

After hesitating for a moment, she softly asked, "Do you... really want to be a father?"

After asking, she felt she’d asked a really stupid question.

Of course, Caden wants to be a father!

That’s why he seemed so disappointed when he found out she wasn’t pregnant!

However, upon hearing Evelyn’s question, Caden fell silent, and his previously carefree demeanor turned serious.

There were certain truths he hoped Evelyn would never know.

But evidently, that was nothing more than his extravagant wish.

Eventually, she would learn all the secrets of The Lockwood Family. By then, could she still accept him and resolve to stay by his side?

Caden wasn’t sure.

But Caden was certain that if Evelyn carried his child, his parents naturally wouldn’t do anything to her for a while, and even if she knew some truths, she would surely stay by his side for the sake of their child.

Having a child, for Caden, was an important card to hold onto Evelyn.

However, doing this felt rather despicable.

"It’s up to you to decide." Caden gently stroked Evelyn’s long hair, his tone filled with indulgence, "When you’re ready to be a mother, don’t be shy, tell me."

Listening to Caden’s words, Evelyn felt warmth in her heart. After the warmth, she felt a bit guilty towards him.

"Okay!" Evelyn responded, "Once I’ve decided, I’ll definitely let you know!"

"Very good." Caden’s lips curled upwards, "Remember what you said, and don’t keep me waiting too long."
