Chapter 418: Where Is My Beloved Woman?
After a pause, Caden Lockwood analyzed further: "If it were someone sent by my dad or mom, they wouldn’t use this method. Didn’t you say? L doesn’t want to harm Evelyn."
"That L is a top-level hacker. Everywhere he has been, even the surveillance has been hacked. How do you know who he is?" Julian Keaton replied, not with the best tone.
Caden Lockwood lowered his gaze.
He was suspicious and worried about L’s identity.
"Do you have someone in mind?" Julian Keaton asked cautiously, "Who?"
"When Evelyn agreed to marry me, she asked me for a favor." Caden Lockwood said, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists.
Breathing lightly and rapidly, Caden spoke again: "She wants me to help her find her long-lost biological brother."
"You suspect that L is Evelyn Morgan’s biological brother?" Julian Keaton exclaimed in shock, "Then... if that’s really the case, that L wants to tear you and Evelyn Morgan apart, wouldn’t it be..."
Reaching this point, Julian Keaton immediately shut his mouth.
He simply couldn’t voice the rest.
The secret hidden within The Lockwood Family was something Julian Keaton didn’t have the courage to be involved in.
"Investigate from this angle," Caden Lockwood instructed, "Inform me immediately if there’s any news."
"Are you crazy?" Julian Keaton roared, "This is your matter, I’m not your bodyguard or secretary, and yet you’re ordering me to investigate? Caden Lockwood, I warn you, don’t push it! I’m already desperately searching for Cece all over, had I betrayed you, I could have found her by now, but instead..."
"Don’t nag at me," Caden Lockwood coldly interrupted Julian Keaton, "I’m annoyed."
With that, Caden Lockwood pressed the hang-up button.
Listening to the "dee-dee-dee" busy signal, Julian Keaton was already furious.
What wrongdoing had he committed in a past life to be ordered around by Caden Lockwood like this?
He didn’t even know where his beloved woman was!
"You’re annoyed?" Julian Keaton shouted at the phone with a bad attitude, "Could you be more annoyed than me? How dare you say you’re annoyed in front of me! Who’s really more annoyed?"
No one answered him.
Helpless, Julian Keaton could only put the phone back in his pocket and continue driving, searching for Cecilia Lynch.
This time, L was clearly retaliating against him, trying to help Cecilia Lynch escape; he couldn’t find even a trace of Cecilia Lynch’s whereabouts...
A few groggy hours passed, and Evelyn Morgan lay on the bed, watching the sun set outside.
Her heart tightened more and more, wondering if Caden Lockwood would be back soon.
If he returned, what should she do?
She had kept her phone off, her door closed, unwilling to contact anyone. It was as if her tears had dried up, and she had no way to vent her heartache.
In particular, she felt very uncomfortable with her body.
Every step she took was unbearably painful, especially when she really began to address her natural urges, the pain felt like salt being rubbed into a wound, growing more intense.
The unknown pain filled her with doubt, yet it seemed she could no longer continue like this.
At this moment, Aunt May brought dinner for Evelyn Morgan, knowing she was in a bad mood and didn’t disturb her much.
"Young Madam, you still need to eat; don’t starve yourself," Aunt May said softly, placing the meal on the bedside table and turning to leave.
"Aunt May!" Evelyn suddenly called out to her.
Aunt May’s expression brightened, and she quickly turned to Evelyn, asking urgently, "Young Madam, what’s wrong? Do you need anything? Tell me! I’ll get it for you!"
"I..." Evelyn softly said, her face full of panic and unease, "I feel a bit... uncomfortable."
"Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Aunt May quickly asked.
