The CEO Gets What He Wants novel Chapter 521

Chapter 521 Trouble Approaching

It was rare for Avery to see Cayden looking embarrassed, so she could not help but tease him, “I always assumed you were a top student kind of person since you were little, but I didn't expect...”

Her gaze shifted to the “test paper” with a disastrous score in her hand.

The two children also eyed their handsome father in unison, covering their mouths to hide their smiles.

Indeed, they had never seen such a low test score.

When they were in kindergarten, even their classmates who performed poorly on their tests had double-digit scores. Scores in the single digits were very uncommon.

“Zach and I both got perfect scores on our tests last week, Daddy! We have always received full marks on all of our tests!” Rory chewed a sweet gummy as she glanced at her father smugly.

“Daddy, I heard from Mommy that you have a doctorate from Horington University. Why are your grades so low? This essay, in particular, is blank...” Zachary pointed at Cayden's old essay test paper and gave his father a meaningful look as he clicked his tongue.

“That's because you have never seen my actual accomplishments. My grades were always the highest in the school throughout high school, university, and my doctorate. Nobody could ever beat me. It was especially so when I was studying for my doctorate. The projects and teams I led drew admiration from my doctoral supervisor.” Cayden snatched the test paper from his son's grasp and told them about his academic achievements.

He was a little annoyed. Why did I keep my old test papers? Why didn't I get rid of them earlier?

“Is that so?” The two adorable children stared at their father with their chins resting on their hands, disbelief written all over their little faces.

Their reactions rendered Cayden speechless.

Although the two children's doubts left him dumbfounded, he stopped discussing these meaningless matters with them.

With his age and the familial atmosphere, embarrassing himself in front of his children did not seem like a big deal anymore.

“Look, Zach. Daddy's face is red!” Rory said with a grin as she tugged at her older brother's arm and pointed at Cayden's slightly flushed handsome face.

“You two got some nerve to make fun of your daddy.”

Cayden picked his daughter up and lifted her high, scaring her so much that she squealed and cried out, “Wow, it's so high. Mean daddy! I'll stop laughing at you. Put me down...”

Avery felt warm and fuzzy inside as she watched the trio playing together.

She enjoyed such a lively and happy atmosphere.

However, the thought of Cayden's upcoming engagement party the next day made her heart clench slightly.

There's going to be trouble tomorrow.

...

The next day, at seven in the morning, warm sunlight slowly seeped in through the window onto the big bed.

Avery opened her eyes to a sea of light green.

The absence of the city's noise and bustle created a quiet and relaxing atmosphere, which made it extremely pleasant.

She wanted to move, but Cayden's strong arms around her waist pressed her body firmly against his chest, effectively immobilizing her.

The naked couple still maintained their ambiguous positions beneath the thin quilt.

His strong embrace made Avery recall the passionate moments from the night before.

As her leg was mostly healed, Cayden, who had been deprived of sex for over two months, was finally given the all-clear the night before. Even though he had always had strong self-control, he ultimately could not restrain himself. Despite his gentle movements out of concern for the baby in her stomach, he exhausted her to the point where she begged for mercy...
