Chapter 708: How Much Does That Guy Like You

“He merely admires you, doesn’t even like you, what are you so proud of?” Lily Thorne questioned coldly.

Shannon Dunn, filled with anger, finally spoke up obediently, “Aunt, I know it’s my fault for not being able to beat Evelyn Morgan. What should I do in the future?”

“Evelyn Morgan cannot live long,” Lily Thorne’s voice was icy. “Her heart is the one I have set my sights on; it will inevitably end up in my body! Once she is no longer in this world, won’t you easily win Caden’s heart?”

“But…” Shannon Dunn was a bit uneasy, “Evelyn now has someone protecting her, and Caden practically adores her to the skies. Is there anything we can still do to her?”

“Of course we can!” Lily Thorne’s lips curled into a cryptic smile as she spoke, “What you need to do now is repent, put all the blame on James Lockwood, let Caden forgive you, and make it easier for him to develop feelings for you later.”

“I understand,” Shannon Dunn replied, “Aunt, this time, I will definitely not lose to Evelyn Morgan! I will definitely sit in the position of ‘Mrs. Lockwood’!”

Lily Thorne nodded and pointed to her own head, “You must think with this, understand?”

Shannon Dunn nodded, proud and confident inside her heart.

With Lily Thorne’s help, was there any fear that Caden Lockwood would not be good to her in the future?

Ha!

Evelyn Morgan?

Shannon Dunn made a secret vow in her heart that she would make Evelyn Morgan lose even her life!

…

On that day, after Caden Lockwood left for work at the office, Evelyn Morgan was alone in the villa, her face filled with worry.

She had secretly called Logan Shaw multiple times, but each time was met with a message that his phone was off.

Caden Lockwood wouldn’t allow her to see Logan Shaw, but knowing Logan Shaw had been sad for so many days, Evelyn Morgan felt she simply couldn’t ignore it completely.

Finally, after much hesitation, Evelyn Morgan dialed Ashley Sutton’s number.

At that moment, Ashley Sutton had just finished bandaging Logan Shaw’s hand and was utterly exhausted.

Logan Shaw seemed to want to cripple his own hand, and if he succeeded, Ashley Sutton’s perfect record of 100% successful treatments would be shattered.

Pressing the call button, Ashley Sutton spoke in frustration, “I’m about to collapse from exhaustion! Can’t you come and handle him? He calls your name a billion times a day, just how much does this guy like you?”

Hearing Ashley Sutton’s words, Evelyn Morgan’s heart tightened. She opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything.

Towards Logan Shaw, Evelyn Morgan harbored an unshakeable guilt.

Through the phone, she could even hear Logan Shaw murmuring her name.

“Where… are you now?” Evelyn Morgan asked softly, “I want to… take a look.”

After Ashley Sutton gave the location, she urged, “Hurry up and come! Otherwise, I’m really going to go crazy! You know?”

With that, Ashley Sutton hung up the phone, clearly because Logan Shaw had caused trouble again.

Listening to the “beep beep beep” busy tone, Evelyn Morgan gripped her phone tightly and, after hesitating for a while, gathered the courage to call Caden Lockwood.

After listening to Evelyn Morgan’s proposal to check on Logan Shaw, Caden Lockwood remained silent.

He neither opposed nor agreed.

“Is it… not possible?” Evelyn Morgan asked nervously, “Don’t worry! I will definitely maintain my boundaries and not do anything to cause any misunderstandings! If you’re concerned, you can actually come with me.”

Pausing, she added another sentence, “But, if I don’t go, I…”
