Evelyn Morgan looked at Caden Lockwood, sensing the heavy, lingering apology in his tone.
As for his explanation, she couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
The reason he acted that way, was it merely because... she is a human life?
Did he not have any warmer reasons?
Thinking this, Evelyn's lips awkwardly curved.
It seemed... her demands were increasing, becoming more greedy.
Seeing Evelyn silent again, Caden couldn't help but feel disheartened.
Did he do so much for her that it became burdensome and stressful for her?
"Don't overthink," Caden patted Evelyn's head, "Focus on recovering. Nothing else matters."
"Are you done with work?" Evelyn quickly asked, "I... have some matters..."
Saying this, Evelyn glanced at the stack of unprocessed documents that Caden had brought back, her gaze dimming again.
She didn't want to be the woman hindering his progress.
Following Evelyn's gaze, Caden looked over, knowing what she was worried about, and gently said, "I'm all done."
