The CEO Gets What He Wants

Yvonne had come up with her own plans.
Yvonne had come up with her own plans.

Which wealthy young man in Ackleton is the hardest to get? It is not some playboy heir or womanizer but the cold and distant Cayden Moore.

Cayden was especially indifferent to women.

Yvonne had tried everything to get close to Cayden. However, all these years, Cayden always behaved like they were strangers whenever she came close to him.

Still, Yvonne did not feel ashamed because he treated other women that way too.

Only Avery received Cayden's special treatment.

Therefore, Yvonne could not understand how an unremarkable woman like Avery made Cayden love her so much. However, it did not matter to Yvonne why Cayden loved Avery. Yvonne only cared about getting rid of Avery as soon as possible.

She needed to ruin Avery's reputation and body.

If Yvonne could have her way, she would want Avery to marry a poor and despicable man. Then, he would make Avery suffer upon marriage, giving her a fate worse than death. That would make Yvonne very happy. Unfortunately, that was not the most practical idea.

Instead, the best way was to make Avery marry Dylan.

The Musk family was wealthy and powerful. Once Avery married Dylan, she would have to abide by wifely virtues and obey her in-laws.

Therefore, she would not have a chance to seduce Cayden anymore.

Moreover, Dylan and Cayden were relatives.

If Avery dared to seduce a relative, she would be dooming herself.

Thus, Dylan's relationship with Cayden was a shackle that could firmly bind Avery, preventing her from ever taking another step closer to Cayden.

Furthermore, if Avery showed even a little interest in Cayden, it would label her immoral and lead society to shame her.

The plan seemed perfect the more Yvonne thought about it.

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the city, Cayden's car had left the road to the mansion and was traveling on a public road.

He saw a car belonging to the Musk family before him, following Avery as she walked in front.

Thus, Cayden sped up and made a quick turn, stopping his car horizontally before the said Musk family's car.

The car from the Musk family had no choice but to stop. Then, the driver lowered his window and asked respectfully, “Mr. Moore, what are you—”

“You don't have to follow her anymore. I will send her back, since it is on my way.” Cayden looked sternly at the Musk family's driver.

Dylan had sent the driver to follow Avery. She had refused to let Dylan send her back and insisted on heading to the main road to hail a taxi. Since Dylan did not wish to trouble or anger her, he had no choice but to send the driver to follow her from a safe distance to ensure her safety.

Still, the driver found the way Dylan wanted him to keep Avery safe challenging.

Dylan had instructed, “Even if she gets into a taxi, you are to follow her in your car until you see that she gets home safely. Only then can you come back here.”

It seemed Dylan distrusted all taxi drivers.

“Sure, thank you, Mr. Moore,” the driver replied. Cayden and Dylan are cousins. Although they are not close, they are still blood relatives.

Thus, the driver believed Avery would be safe with Dylan's relative sending her back.

After convincing the driver to leave, Cayden returned to his car and headed toward a lone figure waiting by the road.

Meanwhile, Avery stood by the road and suddenly heard a car honking behind her. She stepped aside without bothering to look up or glance behind, as her mind was still preoccupied with worries.

However, the car honked again and continued honking relentlessly.

Avery had already retreated to the furthest end of the side of the road, and there was no more space for her to go. Thus, she could not help but glance at the car.

At that moment, Cayden sped his black Land Rover toward Avery. Avery was frightened by the car suddenly coming at her and nearly fell in front of the road barricade.

Cayden braked suddenly and parked the car before her.

Then, he got down from the car, looking domineering in his tailored black suit. He had the top two buttons on his white shirt undone and looked sexy with his collarbones exposed. As he approached her, she looked down and was desperate to hide somewhere.

“You won't be able to hail a taxi here. Are you planning to walk to the city area?” Cayden asked in his deep voice and sounded angry.

He reached out his left hand, wanting to hold her right hand. However, she quickly dodged and hid her hand behind her back.

It seemed Avery was determined not to get into his car.

It was like how she adamantly refused to get into Dylan's car.

To make Cayden give up on her, Avery would date someone as soon as possible and get married. However, she would never date Dylan because they came from vastly different backgrounds. Furthermore, she feared her life would be miserable if she were to marry a wealthy man.

Moreover, Dylan and Cayden were cousins, so that was all the more reason for her to stay away from Dylan.

On the other hand, Brodie kept messaging her on WhatsApp, showing that he was interested in her. Furthermore, he seemed modest in his speech and demeanor. She thought that a man like Brodie suited her social standing and family background.

Therefore, she felt she should not disappoint Brodie.

The trees on each side of the road rustled gently in the breeze. Avery looked at Cayden, who was standing before her in his expensive suit, and walked past him, continuing ahead without a backward glance.
