The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 165

Toby had left ages ago and was waiting outside.

Dylan made his way out of the third row and was standing at the junction that allowed him to make his way to the fourth row right away. He looked ahead.

By then, almost everyone had left.

The performance was over, so the workers were busy putting everything away.

There, sitting in the fourth row, were two adults making out fervently. It was more than just kissing, though. The guy had already slipped his hand under the girl's shirt. Given how they behaved in public, there was no saying just how crazy they were in private.

Talia couldn't see the two lovers' faces, but she moved away and urged, “Let's go now. Your father is still waiting for us.”

Dylan frowned. He kept staring at the couple in the fourth row.

When he saw the matching shoes they had on, however, his frown parted, and he left the place with his mother.

Toby had been waiting for a while, so he was a little annoyed. “What took you so long?”

“A couple is making out in there. Ugh, I can't believe they're doing that in public,” complained Talia as she made her way to the parking lot with her husband and son.

When they reached their destination, they saw that the driver was already waiting for them.

Toby recognized the driver as the punk who used to work for his son and was a valet at a bar.

“What is the meaning of this?” asked Toby.

Dylan replied, “You should go home without me. I have some matters to attend to because I postponed working on something to watch the play with you guys. Let's talk tonight. I'll be home for dinner.”

When Talia heard that, she hugged her husband's arm and urged him to get into the car to prevent him from arguing with Dylan.

Toby didn't say a thing before he got into the car.

Before Talia got into the car, she turned around and warned, “You've already promised to come home for dinner, so be there. Do not leave your dad and me hanging. We have to talk about what you and Ery are going to do.”

“Don't worry. I'll be there,” promise Dylan.

The driver fired up the engine and took the elderly couple back to their home.

Dylan turned around and buckled in. When he heard the crisp click, he caught sight of the imported black Land Rover that was parked two lots beside his car.

It stunned him in place.

Cayden has a car just like that!

Naturally, there were hundreds of similar cars in Ackleton, so the plates were the only things that could identify the owner of the car.

Dylan didn't even know what he was thinking when he walked toward that Land Rover.

When he saw the car's plate, his irises constricted as realization hit him.

Those ridiculously striking registration numbers weren't just catchy. It also signified the incredible social status held by its owner.

Dylan suddenly felt his throat going dry. He closed his eyes, and at that moment, countless images flashed past his mind.

He couldn't reach Avery's phone since the night before.

She had been missing for an entire night.

At first, she simply ignored his calls. Towards the end, dialing her number immediately got the machines to tell him that she was unreachable...

The second he saw that Land Rover, he knew that Avery had blocked his number.

He had his suspicion on the night before, and all he had to do was to grab a random phone and dial Avery's number using that phone. He'd be able to confirm his theory then and there, but he never did so.

He stayed outside Blake's room the entire night, but Avery never showed up.

After staying up all night, he went to the restroom to wash his face with some cold water when the sun rose. Only then did his mind clear up a little.

Dylan didn't even know what he was doing anymore.

He didn't even like Avery. Jealously had simply turned him down a dark path, and driving him to the brink of madness.

His mind might be clear and he might have realized what was love and what wasn't, but he still had to go search for his wife... The wife he worked hard to get his hands on.

After all, they had signed on the dotted lines and were legally married.

It didn't even matter that one of the two parties didn't want to get married.

Before lunch, Dylan thought that Avery would visit her grandfather eventually, so he went to the hospital again, but still, she never showed up.

He left the place in frustration and had been troubled until he saw the Land Rover parked there.

Dylan had a stoic expression on when he left the parking lot and made his way back into the theater.

The couple making out in the fourth row of the VIP area looked a lot like Avery and Cayden. Their figures and their fashion sense were too similar.

I didn't see their faces earlier, but there can't possibly be that many coincidences. Cayden and Avery were secretly dating and happened to get the seats right behind the ones I got for me and my parents.

Dylan made his way back to the VIP area, but by then, everyone was already gone.

He stood beside the door and thought back to what he had just witnessed earlier. For a moment there, his sixth sense tingled, but that only lasted a few seconds.

There is no way Avery and Cayden would wear matching shoes. The style, for starters, is something I have never seen Cayden wear before, but...

Dylan thought about how Avery was still a young woman. Despite the hardship she had endured and been through, she was still a young woman in her mid-twenties. It was possible that she'd like that kind or shoes.

After leaving the theater, Avery made her way to the subway station.

She didn't leave with Cayden.
