Evelyn clenched her fist, looking at Caden Lockwood. It had been days since they last t, yet he remained vibrant and as formidable and cold as ever. The always-unsmiling man was actually smiling at the woman beside him.
She then looked at Shannon Dunn, dressed in a light pink work suit that accentuated her curves. Her strikingly beautiful face bore a gentle smile, and every gesture exuded an admirable aura.
Evelyn couldn’t help but compare herself, wearing a simple tracksuit that was drenched by the rain, looking like a wet chicken with absolutely no charm.
Weakly, she took a step back. It was strange; she clearly wanted to see him, yet suddenly felt an impulse to vanish.
Indeed, there is no harm without comparison.
Caden opened his umbrella, and looked at Shannon, instructing, "Walk with for a bit."
Shannon shrugged, compliantly sharing an umbrella with Caden, her gaze constantly resting on Evelyn.
She naturally knew who Evelyn was.
But right now, it seed Evelyn and Caden were definitely having a conflict.
The raindrops on Evelyn felt even colder, chilling her to the bone.
She looked at Caden under the umbrella; he didn’t glance her way, as if she was an insignificant weed to be ignored.
He held the umbrella to cover the woman beside him, so caring, so loving, not letting that woman get wet.
Lowering her eyes, Evelyn no longer wanted to see the scene harmonious even in the rain.
She had been waiting here, waiting for him to co out, waiting for them to have a good talk.
But the outco was, he brought a woman out.
Furthermore, he had no intention of acknowledging her?
Exactly!
Who was he?
He was the President of The Lockwood Group, The First Young Master Lockwood, Caden Lockwood.
Would he ever lack won by his side?
There were plenty of won eager to be with him!
And she foolishly ca to find him, thinking he would co out to et her.
Truly... ridiculous!
The rainwater in her eyes suddenly felt warm for so reason. She sniffed, suppressing the inexplicable ache in her heart, moved her feet, only to find her entire body had beco rigid.
Wiping the water from her face, she couldn’t forget the purpose of her visit.
"Caden Lockwood." She called him by na, "What do you want in order to let Logan Shaw go?"
Caden held the umbrella, seemingly indifferent, yet his peripheral vision never left Evelyn for a second.
Seeing her so forlorn, shivering from the cold, her face pale and bloodless, a surge of extre joy rose within him.
The thrill of vengeance was exactly like this!
However, at the end of the happiness, was boundless pain.
The wind whipped the rain around, splashing against Caden’s black suit, making it darker and enhancing the chilling aura he emanated.
When he reached Evelyn’s side, Caden stopped, allowing the accumulated rainwater on the umbrella to drip onto her.
He harbored not the slightest thought of sheltering her from the rain, staring down at her, lips pursed without a trace of smile, so cold and brutal.
Evelyn did not dodge, eting Caden’s gaze, feeling his pure anger directed at her, she also showed her displeasure.
The two looked at each other this way, neither intending to speak first.
Shannon Dunn was the first to extend a hand to Evelyn, with a friendly smile, "Hello, I’m Shannon Dunn, a good friend of Mr. Lockwood."
Evelyn looked at Shannon, wondering how she could be so beautiful, and have such a nice na?
She stood stiffly, feeling Caden and Shannon’s relationship was not just simple friendship.
