Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Chapter 460: Chapter 460: He’s a Cultured Scoundrel and Beast

Caden Lockwood lowered his head, his lips lightly grazing the corner of Evelyn Morgan’s mouth, a wicked and profound smile on his face.

"Do you think because my back is injured, I can’t do anything to you?" Caden’s tone was deep, as if transformed into an invisible hand, clutching Evelyn’s heart tightly.

In the past few days, because of Caden’s injury, they naturally hadn’t had any physical contact.

Although Caden was discharged from the hospital now, his wound still hadn’t healed!

It was a bullet wound!

Could it really heal in just a few days?

Evelyn tried to remind herself not to panic, surely Caden was deliberately trying to scare her.

But she couldn’t bring herself to laugh.

Who knows what this beast might do!

"For example, standing like this, with a gentle touch, I can still claim what I want." Caden’s tone was neither cold nor warm, yet it exuded a danger that threatened to strip Evelyn of her last breath.

Evelyn’s hairs stood on end, and she remained motionless, not daring to defy Caden further.

She secretly complained in her heart: A beast is not scary, what’s scary is a beast with culture!

And Caden Lockwood was a cultured rogue beast!

"Erin Morgan." Caden raised his voice, rough in tone, "Call me ’husband’ properly, and I won’t do anything to you, but if you don’t..."

He did not finish his sentence, but the threat and warning were already obvious.

Evelyn pouted.

Call Caden husband?

Just thinking about that title made her feel awkward.

Although he was her husband, it still felt strange to call him "husband".

"Uncle." Evelyn found this title more comfortable, "If you don’t force me to call you husband, I’ll give you a surprise, how about that?"

"Who knows if it’s a surprise or a shock?" Caden retorted with a bad tone.

"Believe me just once!" Evelyn was displeased, "Do we lack basic trust between us as husband and wife?"

Listening to Evelyn’s use of the word "husband and wife", Caden’s mood instantly became particularly cheerful, the bit of gloom that had arisen earlier vanished completely.

He felt that before Evelyn, he was an extremely easy-to-please person.

Sometimes, she only needed a word to lift him from a gloomy mood. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Caden raised an eyebrow, stepped back, and then spoke: "Alright! Tell me! What is the surprise you have for me?" His tone was quite gracious.

Evelyn chuckled softly, then said: "Come with me."

She spoke, and then walked to the bedroom.

Caden took large strides to follow, seeing Evelyn open a drawer and take out a book from inside.

Evelyn handed the book to Caden, speaking softly: "Look at the first page."

Caden took the book, opened it, and saw a rose petal.

The petal had been made into a bookmark, tucked in the book, retaining the delicate and vibrant color of the petal, looking particularly beautiful.

"I’ve accepted your token of affection!" Evelyn smiled, "This petal was carefully chosen by me, made into a bookmark, so it will always exist. And, whenever I open the book, I can see it like this, are you satisfied?"

Caden looked at Evelyn, a rush of intense emotion flickering through his dark eyes.

His heart was filled with gratitude, joy, and comfort, yet mingled with some unease.

He was uneasy about whether this happiness truly belonged to him.
