Caden Lockwood’s face carried a faint hint of sarcasm as he sized up Evelyn Morgan repeatedly, and asked coldly, "You want to know?"

Evelyn Morgan’s breath hitched, and she quickly said, "I don’t want to know! I was just asking offhand! Whether you say it or not is up to you!"

Upon hearing this, Caden Lockwood’s eyes showed a flash of disappointment, which quickly returned to normal, leaving only indifference and coolness.

"Alright." Caden Lockwood responded, "Don’t you want to leave? I’ll fulfill that wish for you."

With that, he released his grip on Evelyn Morgan’s hand, turned around, and slowly walked out of her sight.

Evelyn Morgan’s legs went weak as she watched Caden Lockwood’s departing figure, her eyes gradually becoming blurry.

Her chest was filled with a vast amount of resentment. She opened her mouth, wanting to call out to him, but couldn’t utter a single syllable.

Sniffing, she too turned and continued walking without direction.

Regret, helplessness, sadness, grief—she accepted it all.

After all, she clearly understood that in the end, she and Caden Lockwood would go their separate ways.

They were people from completely different worlds!

Besides, she was currently burdened with a worrying dilemma—she probably couldn’t go home tonight.

After all, that wasn’t her home, it was Caden Lockwood’s home.

This time they had truly fallen out. What right did she have to return to his home?

Evelyn Morgan wandered aimlessly down the street. She found a part-time job in the morning, but wasn’t so lucky in the afternoon.

She dejectedly kicked a small tree at her feet, still wondering where she would spend the night.

Even if she solved tonight’s accommodation problem, what about the future?

After all, it seemed like the apartment her big brother had rented for her had already been vacated!

Just as Evelyn Morgan was worried and at a loss about what to do next, she heard a familiar female voice say, "Evelyn Morgan? Your good days are over, aren’t they?"

Evelyn Morgan looked back to see Eleanor Keaton walking towards her, her eyebrows instinctively knitting together.

Considering the time, it had been quite a while since she last saw Eleanor Keaton.

Not wanting any unnecessary contact with Eleanor Keaton, Evelyn Morgan prepared to step away.

"Avoiding me when you see me? Feeling guilty?" Eleanor Keaton stood in front of Evelyn Morgan, her tone one of regret.

Eleanor Keaton sized up Evelyn Morgan again and mocked, "You know it’s shameful to meet me, don’t you? You despicable mistress!"

Evelyn Morgan looked at Eleanor Keaton, and said coldly, "I’m not a mistress."

"How are you not? You and your friend, what’s their name again? Cecilia Lynch, oh, yes! It’s Cecilia Lynch." Eleanor Keaton snorted coldly, "Cecilia Lynch became my brother’s mistress for money, seducing and sleeping with my brother every day! And you?"

Eleanor Keaton rolled her eyes, "You stole my fiancé and confidently claimed you’re not a mistress! You two really are bosom buddies! Doing such shameless things!"

Upon hearing Cecilia Lynch’s words, Evelyn Morgan’s face turned pale in an instant.

"You... you say..."

Cecilia Lynch as Julian Keaton’s mistress?

How could it be!

"Don’t pretend to be ignorant with me!" Eleanor Keaton narrowed her eyes, "That Cecilia Lynch is a cheap woman who goes around seducing people, and you..."

"Shut up!" Evelyn Morgan roared at Eleanor Keaton with anger.

Eleanor Keaton furrowed her brows, "You’re actually using that tone with me?"

"If you have issues, take them out on me, don’t slander Cece!" Evelyn Morgan warned with a firm tone.

Every hair on her body stood on end; she couldn’t believe Cecilia Lynch would become Julian Keaton’s mistress!

"Slander?" Eleanor Keaton laughed.

Seeing the intolerable expression on Evelyn Morgan’s face, Eleanor Keaton sneered with contempt and continued speaking, "It seems you really don’t know! Your best friend is my brother’s mistress, using her body in exchange to take a large sum of money from my brother every month. If you don’t believe it, you can go ask her."
