Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Caden Lockwood sat in the office chair, looking at the evidence Sean Ashton had gathered about Shannon Dunn, inevitably feeling puzzled.

Even though that company was uncovered as Shannon Dunn’s, it seemed like there was someone else behind it.

Yet, that person in the background was so secretive that no matter how much he tried to investigate, nothing came up.

Caden Lockwood had always sensed that Shannon Dunn was not simple, and the fact that James Lockwood trusted her so much puzzled Caden even more.

James Lockwood was someone who kept reservations about everyone.

And just now, upon learning that Shannon Dunn had her own company outside, James Lockwood was angry but strangely not surprised.

Could it be that James Lockwood knew beforehand?

Caden Lockwood furrowed his eyebrows tightly; he still had many doubts about Shannon Dunn’s affairs.

And he could vaguely guess that if he wanted to resolve these doubts, it would likely involve a lot of other matters.

The issues he and Evelyn are currently facing are already plenty, and if Shannon Dunn’s issue were added, Caden worried he might become even busier and inadvertently neglect Evelyn.

After all, she is ready to have his child now.

He cannot let her down.

He has to provide her and the child with a safe environment, a warm home.

With that in mind, Caden Lockwood sighed heavily, with no improvement in his stern expression.

He sat in place, waiting to see what news Sean Ashton would bring.

About half an hour later, Sean Ashton gently knocked on the door.

Caden looked at Evelyn Morgan’s sleeping room, got up, and instead of staying in the office, he went to Sean Ashton’s office to chat.

Even though he and Sean Ashton could speak softly, Caden Lockwood still worried about waking Evelyn Morgan.

Her health is still not great, and since she has decided to get pregnant, he needs to help her recover as quickly as possible.

"Boss, the chairman hasn’t taken any action against Shannon Dunn, only said he’ll talk to you." Sean Ashton spoke cautiously.

Upon hearing this, Caden Lockwood’s eyebrows furrowed, and his dark eyes immediately emitted a cold, icy glare.

In fact, a moment ago, he had already sensed that James Lockwood would handle it this way.

But when his suspicions were confirmed, the bad feeling inside Caden Lockwood grew stronger.

There definitely is some connection unknown to outsiders between James Lockwood and Shannon Dunn!

Caden Lockwood’s hands unconsciously clenched into fists, the cold aura around him surged like a tsunami, even the sunlight outside seemed frightened.

"Boss, should we... continue investigating?" Sean Ashton asked tentatively.

"No need." Caden Lockwood shook his head, "I’ll decide on the next steps after I meet with the chairman."

Sean Ashton nodded in response, noticing Caden Lockwood was about to meet James Lockwood, feeling uneasy as well.

At that moment, Caden stopped and instructed, "Go to my office, guard it, don’t let anyone approach Evelyn, let her sleep well."

Sean Ashton immediately nodded and went to the office to stand guard after Caden Lockwood left.

Standing at James Lockwood’s office door, Caden’s face remained dark and unpleasant.

He pushed the door open and entered, finding James Lockwood alone sitting on the sofa, Shannon Dunn had already left.

There were two glasses of water on the coffee table; obviously, one was prepared for Caden.

"Here?" James Lockwood smiled faintly, "Sit down! As father and son, we haven’t had a good chat for a long time. Fortunately, I have a lot to say to you."
