The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 704 Protecting Someone

The sniper, hidden at a good vantage point, was incredibly accurate, taking down his target with just one shot.

The other assassins were swiftly dealt with by Taron's men. Then, they quickly began to clean up the scene.

Taron walked up to Avery. Noticing the bloodstain on her slender arm, he frowned. “I'm sorry, Avery. This was my oversight. Thankfully, it didn't lead to a major mishap. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know how to explain it to Cayden.”

Avery gently shook her head. “This blood isn't mine. It belongs to someone else. I'm fine, and so is Cal. Thank you, Taron.”

With his deep blue eyes, Taron looked at Cal, who was playfully wriggling around in Avery's arms, and the man couldn't help but let a hint of admiration shine through his gaze.

If it were an ordinary child, they would have been scared to tears by such a bloody scene.

Unexpectedly, the child was not scared at all. He believed that this child would grow up to be extraordinary.

“Mr. Taron, you looked so cool when you came out just now!” Cal extended his chubby little hand, asking for a hug.

Taron took the little one from Avery's hands, clumsily cradling him in his arms. His handsome face was filled with a doting smile. “Go on—tell me what you want,” he said. “You're buttering me up because you're trying to get something from me, right?”

Cal made a funny face at him, playfully sticking out his little tongue. “I've never tried to do something like that at all. I just wanted a castle dollhouse. That's all...”

“Give me a kiss, and I'll give it to you,” Taron teased Cal, presenting his handsome left cheek to the child.

Immediately, Cal playfully offered a sweet kiss, which made Taron burst into hearty laughter.
