The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 501 His Words Warm Her Heart

Avery leaned against a soft pillow on the bed and comforted her daughter.

After the little girl had fallen asleep from exhaustion, Cayden gently lifted her and placed her in another bed beside them.

Zachary, who did not usually talk much, walked up to Avery, grabbed her hand, and asked in his tender and hesitant voice, “Mommy, I can't wait to grow up. I want to grow up fast so that I can protect you and make sure you never get hurt again.”

His words warmed her heart.

She gently stroked his tender cheek and quipped, “I just want you and Rory to grow up safely. My responsibility now as a mother is to take care of you, but once your dad and I become old, it'll be your responsibility to take care of us. Make sure you don't think of us as a burden then...”

“Of course not, Mommy.” Zachary clenched his fists and vowed earnestly, “You and Daddy took good care of us. When we grow up, we'll definitely take good care of you to show you how grateful we are for what you've done for us. I mean every word I say, Mommy.”

The little boy's innocent expression when he blinked his eyes could easily melt anyone's heart.

Zachary's eyes were almond-shaped, resembling Cayden's, but with the addition of Avery's profound double eyelids. They were not only clear and beautiful like his mother's but also sharp and refined like his father's.

All the exceptional genetic traits were fully manifested in Zachary.

“Okay, Mommy believes you.” Avery could not help but sigh. My son is already so charming at such a young age. What if he grows up to be a heartbreaker?

“Good boy. You're such a good boy,” Avery said as she ruffled his hair and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Zachary could not help but blush.
