Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Laugh Again, and I’ll Devour You

Caden Lockwood chuckled softly and raised an eyebrow, "Cecilia Lynch ran away for a few days and you seem to have grown up quite a bit!"

Julian Keaton rolled his eyes at Caden Lockwood, "Who is really the immature one here? Wife-loving maniac!"

Ignoring Julian Keaton, Caden Lockwood glanced at Evelyn Morgan and Cecilia Lynch chatting happily not far away, a deep smile spreading across his handsome face, filled with warmth.

After lunch, Julian Keaton and Cecilia Lynch walked away hand in hand.

Evelyn Morgan stretched lazily, obviously sleepy.

Caden Lockwood approached Evelyn Morgan and pulled her into his arms, whispering, "We still have something left to do."

Evelyn Morgan couldn’t help but ask, "What?"

Caden Lockwood took Evelyn Morgan’s hand and led her to the study. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

In the corner of the study, those gifts were still there, waiting for Evelyn Morgan to unwrap.

"Sold all the roses I gave you? Evelyn Morgan, are you short on money? Hmm?" Caden Lockwood’s tone carried a hint of settling scores, "Not a single gift has been opened, all piled up here, are you planning to return them to me?"

Just thinking about it made Caden Lockwood feel irritated.

The first time he tried romance, he gave Evelyn Morgan so many things, and she actually exchanged them for money?

Looking at Caden Lockwood’s displeased expression, Evelyn Morgan really wanted to laugh. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Her amber eyes glinted with a touch of mischief as she looked at the pile of gifts in the corner and laughed, "So, why did you give me so many roses? They’re so impractical!"

"Evelyn Morgan." Caden Lockwood lowered his voice, his dark eyes brimming with unmistakable fury.

The angrier Caden Lockwood got, the more Evelyn Morgan wanted to laugh, but she still had to strain to keep a serious face.

Feigning seriousness, she said, "If you filled a car with the largest denomination of US Dollars, and delivered it to me as a surprise, I would definitely forgive you that instant! So stingy! How much are those gifts and roses worth anyway? And I had to run around to sell the flowers!"

After speaking, Evelyn Morgan pretended to look aggrieved, appearing particularly provoking.

Caden Lockwood clenched his fists, looking at the smile hanging at the corner of Evelyn Morgan’s mouth, reminding himself not to get angry.

His palms itched, resisting the urge to strangle her, trying not to let her deliberately provoke him.

Seeming to remember something, Evelyn Morgan suddenly asked, "Oh my! Uncle, wouldn’t it be your first time giving flowers to a girl?"

"I told you not to call me uncle!" Caden Lockwood bellowed, "Evelyn Morgan, are you determined to make me angry?"

Evelyn Morgan laughed more joyously, ignoring Caden Lockwood’s dark expression, continuing to speak, "Looks like I guessed it right! It really is your first time giving flowers! Hahahaha—I’m so honored!"

Caden Lockwood’s dark eyes narrowed, pulling Evelyn Morgan’s hand, directly pushing her against the wall.

He leaned in, pressing close to her, his strong presence instantly enveloping her.

Gazing down at her, his breath rough against her face, he lightly parted his thin lips, "Laugh again, and I’ll devour you!"

"You... you must be joking!" Evelyn Morgan’s eyes flashed with guilt.

She certainly understood the meaning behind his word "devour."

Her cheeks flushed hot, Evelyn Morgan seriously doubted where Caden Lockwood got that bewitching charm!

Being so close to her, he really made her feel shy!
