Chapter 362: Chapter 362: I’m Sorry, I Love You

"Just go try it! I believe in you!" Cecilia Lynch said with a smile.

Julian Keaton nodded, kissed Cecilia Lynch deeply, lingering for a while before putting on his coat and leaving.

As she watched Julian Keaton’s departing back, Cecilia Lynch’s tears flowed suddenly.

In the end, she was still looking at his back!

"Julian..." Cecilia choked, "I’m sorry... I love you..."

...

Finding where Caden Lockwood was, Julian Keaton kept a joyful curve on his lips on the drive over.

He had it all planned out: first, he’d have a "hearty meal" once he got home, and then, he’d take Cecilia Lynch out for dinner.

He wanted to walk hand in hand with her openly, telling the world that this woman would be Julian Keaton’s wife.

Of course!

He had to give her a romantic proposal and hold a grand wedding for her.

He wanted to make Cecilia Lynch the happiest bride in the world!

Under the bright moonlight, Julian Keaton drove to the destination—The Temple of Serenity.

Standing at the temple entrance, Julian Keaton let out a deep sigh.

Whenever Caden Lockwood was in a terrible mood, at his lowest, he would come to this place.

This time, what had happened between him and Evelyn Morgan?

Would a husband obsessed like Caden Lockwood really bear to be angry with Evelyn Morgan?

At that moment, Caden Lockwood was sitting idly in a room. When Julian Keaton pushed the door open, Caden’s eyes moved slightly, surrounded by a chilling sadness.

Seeing Caden Lockwood before him, Julian Keaton’s heart suddenly tightened, a wave of intense worry swelling in his chest.

They had only been apart for a few days, but how had Caden Lockwood become so thin?

The once infinitely glorious Caden Lockwood was now overwhelmed by a deep sadness, with a weary expression, pale complexion, stubble on his smooth chin, and those usually sharp eyes now filled with bloodshot, lacking any vitality.

At this moment, Caden Lockwood was both dejected and downcast.

"What happened?" Julian Keaton asked softly.

Caden Lockwood only glanced briefly at Julian Keaton, said nothing, then continued to gaze at the oil lamp not far away.

The oil lamp burned desperately, its weak light flickering and casting deep shadows on Caden Lockwood’s face, adding a touch of mystery.

Seeing Caden Lockwood like this, Julian Keaton couldn’t help but sit cross-legged across from him.

After giving Caden Lockwood a once-over, Julian sighed deeply in his heart.

"I almost completely lost Cece today," Julian Keaton stated.

After a pause, he added, "When someone closest to me treated me like an object to be sold, I finally realized how outrageous and foolish my past actions towards Cece were, and ultimately, returned to her side."

Listening to Julian Keaton’s words, a complex look swept across Caden Lockwood’s eyes.

Pressing his thin lips tightly together, Caden Lockwood’s dark eyes quickly reverted to their cold and severe state, his handsome face devoid of any extra expression.

"It was Cece who asked me to find you," Julian Keaton continued, "She said that Evelyn Morgan lives happily and joyfully every day, but seeing that smile only makes one want to cry."

Upon hearing this, Caden Lockwood’s expression changed, unhidden pain surfacing on his face.

"How is she?" Caden Lockwood asked anxiously.

Then he fell silent again.

He had vanished from her life for several days; could she possibly be alright?

He knew she had seen what happened that night and must have misunderstood something.

However, he didn’t know how to offer her an explanation.

The truth, he couldn’t speak.

The lies, he didn’t want to tell.

Thus, he could only stay here, troubled and in pain.
