The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 715

Chapter 715 Accepting Cayden As His Biological Father

Cayden extended his hand towards the driver. “May I borrow your phone?”

The back of his hand was rubbed raw, oozing a viscous liquid of red and white. The wound had already opened up, making for a rather gruesome sight.

The driver handed him his cell phone, unable to suppress a frown. “Mr. Moore, your injury needs to be treated...”

However, Cayden simply waved him off and directly made a call.

His cold voice softened immediately. “Ery, it's me...”

Once he heard Avery's panicked cries and learned about Blake's incident, Cayden's expression instantly turned grave and exuded an unprecedented seriousness. “Don't panic,” he said. “Stay at home and wait for me. I'll be back immediately.”

While speeding on the way back, Cayden contemplated how to capture Rupert while considering the matter of returning to his homeland.

Although the Dark River's base was discovered and destroyed by the Remdikian government, their cunning boss, Rupert, managed to escape. The government's crackdown had merely hurt the organization on the surface. As long as Rupert remained at large, he was a threat to Cayden and his family.

Rupert was cunning, malicious, and cruel. If he was not brought to justice, he would make a comeback and retaliate against Cayden's family with greater intensity. Hence, Cayden absolutely could not ignore such an unpredictable factor.

However, Blake was Avery's grandfather, her most important relative who painstakingly raised her. Now that his life hung in the balance, he had to accompany her to see him no matter what.

The thoughts swirled in Cayden's mind like a raging storm. Imagining Avery in a state of panic and helplessness at home, he floored the accelerator.

Upon returning home, Cayden, through the car window, saw Avery entertaining Cal by drawing in the sand.

Yet, her mind was clearly not on the child. She kept glancing toward the door as if she was waiting for his return.

Upon seeing his car pull into the yard, Avery immediately stood up and rushed over. “Cayden...”

Cayden brought the car to a halt without even driving it into the garage.

Through the rearview mirror, he ascertained that the wound on his neck wasn't too severe. Only then did he open the car door and gracefully step out of the car with his long, slender legs.

As soon as he got out of the car, Avery threw herself into his arms, staring intently at his face. As expected, her gaze fell upon his injured neck.

She yearned to touch it with her hand, yet she dared not.

“Are you hurt? I tried calling you, but your phone was switched off...”

Avery wrapped her arms around his waist, whispering softly, “Cayden, you have no idea how worried I've been. I was so scared something had happened to you.”

Cayden had also suffered minor injuries to his abdomen. When Avery hugged him tightly, he felt as if a hammer was struck upon his flesh, causing him to wince in pain.

However, it happened for just a fleeting moment, after which he quickly returned to his usual self. “I was busy and didn't realize my phone had run out of battery.”

“What happened to your neck? Are there injuries anywhere else on your body?”

Avery anxiously held his hand, carefully examining it. Seeing the wound on the back of his hand, she felt her eyes sting as tears welled up in them. “Why were you so careless? Does it hurt a lot? Let me apply some medicine for you.”

“Don't worry, it's just a minor wound. I've applied some alcohol to disinfect it.”

Avery held his arm. Looking at his hand, she could see it bloodied with its skin peeled off. The pair of hands that she once loved, which were perfect and fair, had now become extraordinarily rough. The calluses in his palm clearly showed that he had endured a lot of hardship.

It was a heartbreaking sight to see.

Even though the wound wasn't on her own hand, Avery could feel her heart ache. Without saying a word, she led him to the room.

Cal was drawing in the sand as he watched his mother lead his father toward the room.

Seeing that his father's hand seemed to still be bleeding, Cal didn't react as he usually would, where he would go against his father. Instead, he furrowed his delicate brows, sensing something was amiss.

After being influenced by Avery, he accepted the fact that Cayden was his biological father in his heart. However, he was still somewhat reluctant to admit it verbally.

Didn't Mommy say that Daddy is Superman? Superman doesn't get hurt, so why is Daddy bleeding?

“Cayden, does it hurt? If it does, let me know.” Inside the room, Avery opened the first aid kit, carefully disinfecting and bandaging Cayden's wound. While doing so, she could feel a lump in her throat.

Due to Sid's frequent habit of provoking Taron, which often resulted in him being beaten to a pulp, Vivian's mansion was equipped with a medical room. This room was stocked with all sorts of medical supplies and even diagnostic instruments. It had everything one could possibly need.
