Slowly Falling into His Love Trap

Chapter 714: Your Husband Has Hidden Too Many Secrets from You

  • Next Chapter

Evelyn felt that she already wasn’t well-received by Lily Thorne. If she inadvertently said anything unpleasant, she’d definitely be ruthlessly cast aside.

Actually, Evelyn really wanted to sweet-talk to please Lily Thorne.

But whenever she saw Lily Thorne, she couldn’t even speak normally, let alone flatter her.

“So articulate, yet you claim you can’t speak?” Lily Thorne sneered, “Turns out, Caden likes someone who appears foolish but is actually clever to the core!”

Upon hearing this, Evelyn froze awkwardly.

Against Lily Thorne’s outright taunts, Evelyn was at a loss for words to rebut her.

What a pity!

Obviously, she wasn’t entirely without merit, right?

But Lily Thorne made her feel completely worthless.

Lily Thorne cast a disdainful glance at Evelyn, internally disliking her very much.

Instinctively, she glanced at Evelyn’s heart, a trace of a faint smile on her lips, eyes filled with deep complexity.

Evelyn didn’t understand the look Lily Thorne gave her, and she was too tense to risk getting closer to her.

Although Lily Thorne hadn’t done anything to harm her, she clearly disliked her, and every time they met, it was all ridicule, so it was hard for Evelyn not to stay vigilant.

Lily Thorne sized up Evelyn, sighed heavily, then softly said, “It seems there are many things Caden still hasn’t told you, right?”

Evelyn’s breath hitched, unsure of what Lily Thorne was referring to.

Does this include the matter of Caden adopting her?

“There’s a question I’m quite curious about.” Lily Thorne’s face showed unfathomable depth, “How do you feel when there are too many secrets between you and your husband?”

“Secrets?” Evelyn was confused, “Do you mean…”

“Do you think there aren’t any secrets between you and Caden?” Lily Thorne said coldly, “Living together for so long, you couldn’t possibly have noticed nothing, right?”

Evelyn remained silent, not responding.

How could she not realize that Lily Thorne’s visit was certainly not for anything good?

Sighing heavily inside, being so disliked by her mother-in-law, Evelyn felt her situation wasn’t much better than Cecilia’s.

Between her and Caden, it was really just a marriage registration; all those ordinary things couples do, she and Caden hadn’t done any of them.

Thinking of this brings a feeling of obscurity in Evelyn’s heart, but outwardly, she still presents a smile.

She thought: If she showed a gloomy face, Lily Thorne would dislike her even more!

But if Lily Thorne knew Shannon Dunn’s true nature, would she still be so enamored with Shannon?

But Evelyn wouldn’t dare ask these questions.

“Answer me.” Lily Thorne demanded, “Don’t just stay silent! Evelyn Morgan, have you forgotten the basic courtesy?”

“I…” Evelyn clenched her fists.

Taking a deep breath, she spoke again: “I’m not sure how many things Caden is hiding from me; I’ve also felt he is hiding many things. But he’s my husband, and I love him deeply, so I believe even if he has secrets, they wouldn’t be things that would harm me.”

“Does that make sense?” Lily Thorne’s tone was unkind, “If they aren’t harmful, why would he need to keep them from you?”
