The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 533 Black Mamba

Cayden's heart was in his throat when he heard Avery's terrified shrieks. “Avery, what happened?”

The scene unfolding before Avery's eyes was so shocking that she found herself unable to speak.

It was a giant nest of snakes.

Avery's legs had turned jelly. She subconsciously thought of getting off the swing, but she almost fell off due to her panic and injured foot, which impeded her movements.

Thankfully, it was a close call as she caught hold of a sturdy branch in the nick of time.

“Ery, what's going on?” Cayden called out urgently. His voice was overflowing with concern.

Avery was fearful of moving when she turned her phone camera at the horrific beings on the ground.

Cayden could see through the live video clearly that several black snakes were slithering toward her.

He immediately became alarmed.

The snakes were black mambas, the most dangerous venomous snake species. Their speed and attacks were tremendously lethal that even two drops of venom could induce death.

However, their natural habitat was usually in Alendor, the southern parts of Aploth, and regions with tropical rainforests. There was no way they would appear here unless they were transported over on purpose.

Avery tried desperately to remain composed, but her hand holding her phone trembled. “C-Cayden, t-there are many black snakes here. Why are there suddenly so many black snakes in the garden?”

She was so overcome by fear that she started stammering.

Avery had a phobia of cold-blooded animals that squirmed, snakes being one of them.
