Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Be a Villain for Him, Just This Once

"If I were you, I would unhesitatingly choose to hurt Evelyn," Mrs. Keaton said softly, "After all, Caden Lockwood’s parents don’t like Evelyn. Her marriage is full of obstacles. Instead of letting someone else break it up in the end, it would be better if you did it. Once you become Mrs. Keaton, you can at least protect her when she divorces."

After a pause, Mrs. Keaton continued, "Otherwise, when the time comes, you and she will just end up as a pair of miserable sisters."

Cecilia Lynch cried uncontrollably.

She couldn’t hurt Evelyn!

"If you choose to leave here and live alone with your mother, I will also tell her about the affair with Julian," Mrs. Keaton’s voice was laced with cruelty, "After all, only your mother can control you, and make sure you never return to Julian’s side!"

Cecilia Lynch trembled like a leaf.

Mrs. Keaton gave her two options, but neither was a way out!

If her mother knew she had been Julian Keaton’s mistress, it would surely kill her!

Cecilia Lynch seemed to stand at a crossroads, and no matter which path she took, it led to hell.

"You’re a smart kid." Mrs. Keaton’s lips curled into a deep smile, "I believe you’ll make a decision that pleases me."

Cecilia looked at Mrs. Keaton, clearly, Mrs. Keaton wanted her to destroy Evelyn and Caden’s marriage.

The Lockwood Family must have given the Keaton Family quite a few benefits!

"There are certain things you should know whether to disclose or not." Mrs. Keaton said sternly, "Give me an answer! What will you choose?"

Cecilia shook her head in agony, she had no answer, she couldn’t choose.

Leave Julian Keaton?

She had tried that life, and she felt like a walking corpse; there was no difference between being alive and dead.

She didn’t want to leave him, she really didn’t!

Especially since, even if she left regardless of everything, her mother finding out about her being a mistress would be unbearable!

But... hurting Evelyn?

She couldn’t do that either!

"Evelyn doesn’t have nowhere to go either," Mrs. Keaton said progressively, "Logan Shaw likes her, and if she’s with Logan, the Shaw Family wouldn’t make things difficult for her. After all, the Shaw Family still has Liam Shaw, and Logan has no interest in business."

Tears streamed down Cecilia’s face, "No... it can’t be..."

"Just do as I say!" Mrs. Keaton took a deep breath, "Julian’s wish is to have both family love and romantic love. For him, what’s so wrong with being a bad person once?"

Cecilia clenched her fists, listening to Mrs. Keaton’s words, she was in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Even after leaving the study and seeing Julian Keaton, Cecilia still hadn’t snapped back to reality.

The path Mrs. Keaton outlined for her remained in her mind — to ruin Evelyn and Caden’s marriage.

If she didn’t comply, her and her mother’s lives would completely descend into hell.

What should she do?

How could she act to protect everyone?

Cecilia couldn’t figure out a way, even death couldn’t solve all the current problems.

Yet, she had to hide her true despair at this moment, she didn’t want Julian Keaton to worry.

Knowing Cecilia and Mrs. Keaton hadn’t a pleasant conversation, Julian Keaton didn’t stay much at the house and took Cecilia’s hand to leave the Keaton Family residence.

In the car, Julian Keaton finally asked, "What’s wrong? Why do you look so pale? What did my mother say to you?"

Cecilia looked at Julian, this face that enchanted her, this man she loved with all her heart, how much easier things would have been if they had never met!

"Julian," Cecilia’s voice was very soft, "I love you."

"What happened?" Julian became anxious, "What exactly did my mother say to you? Damn it! I knew I shouldn’t have let you talk to her alone!"
