The CEO Gets What He Wants novel Chapter 701

Chapter 701 I Miss You

Avery dreamed the entire night.

In their dream, Avery and Cayden lay on a vast meadow, under budding willow trees, basking in the gentle warmth of the sunlight.

She nestled in his arms, caressing his handsome face, basking in the joy of a love lost and found again. She even playfully punched and hit him.

She alternated between tears and laughter, relentlessly questioning him, “Where on earth have you been all these years? Do you have any idea how much I've missed you? It was to the point of madness.”

He didn't utter a word, yet his handsome eyes reflected her frenzied image. His gaze was so passionate that it almost drowned her.

He passionately kissed her soft lips, whispering incessantly, “Avery, I miss you. I miss you.”

They were entwined with each other without any restraint. She could clearly feel his warmth and his soul. Everything belonged to her.

Just as he was about to take her clothes off, Avery's body heavily sank suddenly as a weight shattered her beautiful dream.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes, only to meet a pair of clear eyes, strikingly similar to those of Cayden.

Cal was mischievously lying on her, his childish voice calling out to her, “Mommy, wake up, Mommy, wake up. Can you take Cal out to play today?”

Avery felt somewhat disheartened, as if she was still immersed in a dream and unwilling to wake up.

She gazed steadily at the baby, but her thoughts were drifting far away.

Seeing that his mother remained silent and didn't hug him like she used to, Cal started to feel unhappy.

The expression on Cal's face was particularly aggrieve. “Does Mommy not love Cal anymore? Why are you ignoring Cal?”

Avery immediately held his son in her arms while putting on a pretend fierce face. “Hmph! The witch is coming... The witch is going to eat you... Are you scared?”

“Oh no, I've been eaten by the wicked witch...” Cal exclaimed with a look of terror. Then, he collapsed softly, as if he had truly been devoured.

Avery held her son and laughed heartily.

Cal is truly a treasure and always makes me burst into laughter.

But soon, Cal got up. The little guy's fair and tender face turned towards Avery, and he spoke with a precocious tone, “Mommy, you've played this game countless times. It's so childish. Can we try something new? Now that I've played with you, can you take me to the amusement park?”

He was eagerly gazing at Avery.

In this unfamiliar land, there were no other children for him to play with. Coupled with the lack of freedom at home, the lively nature of the child was restrained. Therefore, he had a particular longing to go out and play.

Avery hesitated for a moment, gently stroking Cal's little head, and softly said, “The situation isn't suitable for us to go out right now. How about we wait some time, and then Mommy will take Cal out to play, okay?”

She remembered the words repeatedly emphasized by Cayden last night. An assassin organization called Dark River might have set their sights on them. She was told not to go out unnecessarily. Otherwise, if they fell into the hands of Dark River, the consequences would be dire.

“Mom always says this, but she never keeps her word. Uncle Kendrick says that being honest is an important value in life.” The little one, grumbling in frustration, clutched Avery's fingers, trying to pull her up.

Despite his small size and strength, he exerted all the power he could muster trying to pull his mother. His tender little face turned beet red from the strain, yet he still couldn't budge Avery even a bit.

Avery looked at his pitiful little figure and couldn't help but laugh. “You little dummy!”

With a decisive move, Cal plopped down onto Avery's belly. His handsome little face puffed up as he turned his head away, no longer paying attention to Avery. “Hmph, Mommy is annoying. Cal won't talk to Mommy anymore!”
