The CEO Gets What He Wants novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535 It Is Really Scary

“Avery!” Cayden's shout came from outside the door.

At that moment, he was anxious and angry at the same time.

He was firing his rifle at those venomous snakes as he called out Avery's name.

When Avery heard him calling for her, she staggered to the window and began to slam on the glass. “Cayden, I'm all right. There are many snakes outside. You have to be careful...”

Taking in the crazed look on Cayden's face, Avery suppressed the fear in her.

He seemed to be more frightened than she was.

The sight of him made her feel safe.

Cayden relaxed when he saw that Avery was safe and sound in the house.

After a long while, there was a click on the electronic door, and Cayden rushed in. He pulled Avery into his trembling arms and apologized, “I'm sorry. I'm so sorry...”

He could have almost lost her.

“This isn't your fault. Don't blame yourself.” Avery collapsed into his arms and felt a sense of relief as if she had gained a new leash on life.

Cayden continued holding her very tightly.

Suddenly, Avery thought of James who was still unconscious, and she broke free of Cayden's embrace. She walked toward James and said guiltily, “If it weren't for James, I would have been bitten by the venomous snake. In order to save me, James has snake venom in him now. I've already injected him with the antidote, but I'm not sure if it will work. If it wasn't because of me, James wouldn't have been poisoned. How am I going to help him?” With that, tears began to flow down her face. “We've been staying here for so long, and we've hardly seen any insects. Why are there venomous snakes around all of a sudden? And so many of them?”

Ever since Avery got pregnant, she had become more emotional, and now, more than ever.

Cayden said with a frown, “I will get to the bottom of this matter. Both you and James are victims. I'm thankful that James saved your life. He will be fine. Once he regains consciousness, I will give him a huge reward. Don't worry too much.”

They could hear the sirens coming from outside, and they were getting louder by the second.

Just then, Avery felt a spasm of pain coming from her abdomen. It was so painful that she was about to pass out.

Two tall figures arrived with the police.

“Boss...” Jake and Xavier rushed into the house, covered in sweat.

When they saw James lying unconsciously on the floor and Avery's pale face, they looked nervous, and their faces turned ashen.

Jake quickly asked, “Are Mrs. Moore and James all right?”

Have we come too late?

“James was bitten by the venomous snake, but he has been injected with the antidote. Hurry up and take him to the hospital,” instructed Cayden coldly.

Avery caressed her stomach and tried her best not to utter a single sound.

However, in the end, she could not help but moan in pain. “C-Cayden, my stomach hurts...”

All Avery could feel was immense pain coming from her abdomen and warm fluid flowing out of her nether region.

Her instinct told her that the baby was in danger, but she refused to accept that. She had been taking great care of the baby. Nothing must happen to her unborn child.

“Avery...”
