Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Caden Lockwood lowered his gaze, feeling helpless, envious, angry, and wronged.

He knew that the bond between Evelyn Morgan and Cecilia Lynch had developed their current understanding and trust after so many years.

But he still felt uncomfortable.

Uncomfortable because Evelyn’s trust wasn’t in him.

Even more so, Evelyn’s trust in him wasn’t even a tenth of what she had for Cecilia Lynch.

"Fine!" Caden Lockwood gritted his teeth, "I’ll go in with you again."

"No need!" Evelyn Morgan stopped Caden Lockwood, "I can go by myself!"

"Do you think I would eat her?" Caden Lockwood said sharply, "Evelyn Morgan, do you know that your unconscious actions are sometimes really annoying?"

Evelyn Morgan gave a guilty smile, hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, "Then... didn’t you say you could help Cece and Julian Keaton? Do you have any good ideas?"

Hearing Evelyn’s helpless plea, Caden Lockwood sighed deeply and then gently said, "Let’s first see what happens with Cecilia Lynch’s mother! As for everything else, we’ll talk about it later."

Evelyn Morgan nodded and followed Caden Lockwood back to outside the operating room.

Just as Evelyn and Caden arrived, the door of the operating room opened.

Cecilia Lynch was the first to rush over, stopping the nurse coming out, and asked anxiously, "How is my mom?"

"The patient is temporarily out of danger, but her condition was already poor. Although she survived this suicide attempt, the damage to her body is severe, and she needs to recuperate peacefully. Unfortunately, she probably doesn’t have much time left," the nurse said apologetically.

Hearing the nurse’s words, the light in Cecilia Lynch’s eyes quickly turned from excitement to pain.

She was happy believing her mother had survived.

But she didn’t expect that although her mother survived, she didn’t have much time left.

This result was almost as bad as the worst outcome for Cecilia Lynch.

Ultimately, she was the one who harmed her mother!

If she had been perfectly innocent and not Julian Keaton’s mistress, or if she had kept this secret well, her mother could still live well!

It was her!

It was all her fault!

After fighting for her mother’s life for so many years, now she had personally pushed her mother to the edge of death!

Tears streamed down her face, and if Julian Keaton hadn’t supported her, Cecilia Lynch would have already collapsed.

"Cece." Julian Keaton hurriedly comforted, "Let’s not worry about the future just yet. Once your mom’s health improves a bit, I’ll have a good talk with her. As long as she’s in a good mood, I believe her health will improve too!"

Listening to Julian Keaton’s words, Cecilia Lynch nodded slightly.

At this moment, her mind was in turmoil, and she could only do as he suggested.

Evelyn Morgan and Caden Lockwood stood a small distance behind Cecilia Lynch, having heard everything the nurse said.

Evelyn Morgan wiped her tears, keeping her gaze on Cecilia, pained by the situation.

Cecilia Lynch turned and saw Evelyn Morgan and Caden Lockwood standing there. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she said nothing and walked with her mother, who was lying on the hospital bed, to the intensive care unit.

Caden Lockwood held Julian Keaton back and asked quietly, "Do you have enough money?"

He knew that Julian Keaton had been stripped of everything by the Keaton Family, and he wasn’t sure if he could afford Cecilia’s mother’s exorbitant medical bills.

Upon hearing this, Julian Keaton’s gaze dimmed, and a gloomy expression settled on his face.

All his life, he’d never worried about money.

However, now, it seemed he had no choice but to worry.
