Chapter 462: Chapter 462: That Girl Who Jumped... Is She Alive?
"This..." Evelyn was a bit hesitant, "But I can’t go my entire life without going out alone!"
"Take a bodyguard!" Aunt May suggested, "Young Madam, if you take a bodyguard, you’ll be much safer going out!"
Evelyn pouted. Bringing a bodyguard for eating, living, traveling—it’s just too troublesome.
Besides, the bodyguard worked for Caden Lockwood, and if she did anything, it would surely be reported to him immediately.
Wouldn’t she have any privacy left?
However, if she didn’t take a bodyguard, it seemed like just the thought of being kidnapped was genuinely frightening.
"Don’t joke about your safety." Aunt May was worried, "Why not just agree with the Young Master and let him assign a bodyguard to be with you?"
"Alright!" Evelyn responded, "But, I won’t take one today. When I get back tonight, I’ll tell Uncle to assign that female bodyguard he mentioned. I refuse to believe those people would kidnap me again right after they just did!"
"But..."
"Don’t worry!" Evelyn interrupted Aunt May, "Even Uncle said it’s temporarily safe now."
Aunt May couldn’t hold Evelyn back, sighed inwardly, and watching Evelyn’s departing figure, could only hurriedly call Caden Lockwood.
Knowing that Evelyn went out alone again, Caden was inevitably concerned. freёwebnoѵel.com
He told Evelyn it was safe now, just to ease her mind and prevent fear.
Unexpectedly, she completely believed it, and actually thought those who intended to harm her wouldn’t strike again?
Caden shook his head helplessly and immediately dialed Evelyn’s number.
When Evelyn was kidnapped, her phone was thrown away, so a few days ago Caden bought her a new phone. The speed dial 1 was his number.
Remembering Caden’s proud and haughty expression at the time, Evelyn couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Now, she had just left the villa when Caden’s call came through, and Evelyn couldn’t help but inwardly complain: Aunt May, you sold me out again!
Pressing the call button, Evelyn hadn’t had the chance to explain before Caden spoke up first: "You better give me a reasonable explanation for why you’re going out so early."
"I made plans with Cece to shop for ties. She wants to buy one for Julian Keaton as a gift," Evelyn stated her pre-prepared excuse, "Don’t tell Julian! It’s a surprise Cece is planning for him!"
Listening to Evelyn, Caden was quite displeased.
Why does Cecilia know how to buy gifts to surprise Julian, but Evelyn doesn’t?
But then again, isn’t it possible that under Cecilia’s influence, Evelyn might suddenly become enlightened?
With that thought, Caden said coldly, "Go ahead! But remember to stay in crowded places and come back quickly. Tomorrow I’ll introduce you to the bodyguard, and you cannot refuse this time, safety matters."
"As you command!" Evelyn replied, "And remember, I want a female bodyguard!"
"Even if you wanted a male bodyguard, I wouldn’t allow it," Caden replied with a bad tone, "Remember, come back early." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Evelyn clicked her tongue, chatted with Caden for a bit more, and then hung up.
This time, Evelyn decided to be smart. Not feeling safe in a taxi, she opted for the subway instead.
At a flower shop, Evelyn looked around, her eyes catching all the flowers, wanting to buy one of each to take home.
She chose a rose, carefully examining each petal, all strikingly beautiful. Satisfied, she paid and planned to head home.
She intended to make an especially beautiful bookmark for Caden, then present it to him when he returned tonight!
Imagining Caden’s satisfied and happy smile upon receiving the bookmark, Evelyn’s smile grew more radiant.
Holding the flower, she cautiously protected it, hoping it would present itself in the most beautiful way in the bookmark.
As she walked, Evelyn suddenly saw a girl named Yvonne Rhodes, the one who fell from a building, standing at a distance watching her.
