Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Chapter 458: Chapter 458: You’re the Type Women Really Like

Suddenly, a fierce and cold anger enveloped Caden Lockwood, while Julian Keaton shrugged, took a sip of coffee, and acted as if he hadn’t spoken.

"My mom can’t possibly want to kill Evelyn." Caden Lockwood shook his head, "My dad doesn’t have the need to go to such lengths to kill Evelyn. And I found out that it was L who told Logan Shaw about Evelyn’s kidnapping, so it can’t be L either. Then... who could it be?"

"Could it be... someone coveting your woman?" Julian Keaton asked tentatively.

As if he thought of something, he quickly added, "I can guarantee! Eleanor is now confined at home and can’t even step outside. And I know her temperament; she’d never commit murder."

Caden Lockwood hesitated for a moment, then gently uttered three words: "Shannon Dunn?"

Julian Keaton’s eyes flashed with a deep thought before he asked again, "Does Shannon Dunn like you?"

"She did sow discord in front of Evelyn." Caden Lockwood frowned, "But that was just under my dad’s orders. I feel she’s not interested in me." freewёbnoνel.com

"Your dad always sends her to cause troubles, so she might still have some interest in you, right?" Julian Keaton shrugged, "After all, your type is quite attractive to women, isn’t it?"

Caden Lockwood gave Julian Keaton a scornful look and said coldly, "If I investigate personally, it will alert many people, and I might not find anything useful. I’m telling you this because I need you to help me discreetly look into Shannon Dunn and figure out how many secrets she has that I’m unaware of."

Julian Keaton asked in surprise, "Is checking into Shannon Dunn really something to be cautious about?"

"How much do you and I know about Shannon Dunn?" Caden Lockwood coldly retorted, "All we know is that she is an orphan, and due to her outstanding performance, my dad took a liking to her and began grooming her. Besides that, what else do you know?"

"You mean..." Julian Keaton hesitated, then asked, "Shannon Dunn might have a bigger background?"

"I’m just speculating." Caden Lockwood said gravely, "I need to focus more on investigating L’s affairs, so you’ll look into Shannon Dunn’s matters."

"A debt from a past life." Julian Keaton shook his head helplessly, "I’m about to have a wedding, and you still want me to investigate such matters?"

"Did Uncle and Auntie allow you to marry?" Caden Lockwood asked.

Julian Keaton shrugged, "I’ve decided not to concern myself with their stubbornness!"

"I can give Cecilia Lynch a one percent share of The Lockwood Group." Caden Lockwood said softly, "Consider it a wedding gift from my wife and me to both of you."

Upon hearing this, Julian Keaton sized up Caden Lockwood and exclaimed, "Isn’t that too generous? One percent, do you know how much that’s worth?"

Caden Lockwood remained silent, saying nothing. freeweɓnovel.cøm

If, on the night in Southwood, Julian Keaton had chosen to betray him and went to Cecilia Lynch, then Caden Lockwood believed that he and Evelyn Morgan would definitely have had bigger misunderstandings.

Julian Keaton is a friend worth having, and Caden Lockwood is willing to clear some paths for him.

"Thank you!" Julian Keaton shifted his gaze away from Caden Lockwood, "But I don’t want my parents to recognize Cece just because of money. It would always make Cece carry the burden of being inferior."

"..."

"She is my woman, and my parents should truly acknowledge her from their hearts! Otherwise, even if a one percent share of The Lockwood Group makes them agree temporarily, they might start picking on her again later?" Julian Keaton said.
