Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

"You don’t need to know!" Caden Lockwood’s voice softened, "You just need to trust me."

Upon hearing this, Evelyn Morgan’s lips awkwardly curled.

To completely trust Caden under the circumstances of complete unknown, she really couldn’t do it.

Especially on the day Yvonne Rhodes passed away, Caden’s heartbroken expression, Evelyn would never forget in her life.

"Honey." Evelyn whispered, "That... you mentioned Jessica Rhodes..."

Seeing Caden’s face suddenly turn worse, Evelyn hesitated for a moment before continuing to ask, "Jessica is L’s person, so... what about Yvonne? Why did L... come to find me? And it feels like he’s doing it for my own good?"

Listening to Evelyn’s string of questions, Caden’s face turned as dark as ink.

Thinking that L was Evelyn’s biological brother made Caden feel like there was a ticking time bomb in his heart, ready to explode at any moment.

He still remembered, when Evelyn agreed to be his wife, she had asked him to help find her biological brother.

Now, he had found him.

Moreover, her brother turned out to be L, who wanted to break up his and Evelyn’s marriage. This result, Caden did not know how to tell Evelyn.

In Evelyn’s heart, although she hadn’t spent much time with her lost brother, the childhood bond and the same blood running through their veins must be precious enough!

Caden couldn’t help but wonder: If L revealed his identity to Evelyn and, as her brother, forced her to divorce, would Evelyn agree?

Caden had no confidence that Evelyn would stay by his side.

Thinking that she might leave someday, he wished he could tuck her away in his pocket, taking her everywhere he went.

That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about losing her.

With this thought, Caden couldn’t help but laugh.

How could he have such absurd and insecure thoughts?

Evelyn had been staring at Caden, and seeing him suddenly show a smile, her expression became more and more bewildered.

Caden slowly returned to his senses, looked at Evelyn, and softly asked, "Do you still have contact with L?"

Evelyn shook her head.

Since the last time L helped find Cecilia Lynch, L hadn’t appeared again.

Caden’s eyes gradually focused, the coldness in his gaze becoming more severe.

It seemed L had no intention of revealing his identity to Evelyn, nor was he ready to recognize her.

Caden took a deep breath, then gently said, "Next time L contacts you, no matter what he says, will you tell me, okay?"

Caden did not force Evelyn to agree but sought her opinion.

Evelyn faintly sensed that Caden was greatly concerned about matters related to L.

Evelyn couldn’t help but think: Surely L, this opponent, must have caused Caden a lot of trouble!

But why was there such hostility between L and Caden?

"Can you tell me?" Evelyn gently asked, "What is the enmity between you and L?"

Upon hearing this, Caden’s eyes darkened.

His thin lips parted slightly, and he whispered two words: "Can’t."

Evelyn was speechless, inevitably feeling a bit disappointed.

She remembered when Caden had previously told her the reason for his headaches, she felt sorry for his ordeal but was also comforted that he considered her someone he could trust and rely on.

At that time, she had been moved for quite a while.

Because he had shared with her a secret that was difficult for him to speak about.
