Chapter 312
“That''s enough! Quit embarrassing yourself!”
Cayden had no choice but to carry his mother to the car. After locking the doors and windows, he sped
away.
Avery''s body was still trembling after Allie had been dragged away.
She balled her fists as her skin grew cold.
Avery could see Allie hitting the car window and attempting to get out the car through the window. To
prevent her from being with Cayden, Allie could even disy such a spectacle and abandon the
elegant fa?ade she had been putting on for years.
Avery simply could not wrap her head around Allie''s behavior.
If she doesn''t acknowledge my rtionship with Cayden, I''ll never be able to be at peace with myself.
Avery remained silent for a long time.
Even though the heater was on, she could not feel any warmth.
Now, she was not debating if she should divorce Dn but was worried that even if she divorced him,
there would be countless obstacles in her way to being with Cayden.
Letting out a sigh, she rubbed her temples and forced herself to stop overthinking.
She sat in front of theputer and began to work seriously, distracting herself from her many
personal problems with work.
She was filled with inspiration all of a sudden and had countless fresh ideas.
The renowned architects in thepany came up with good designs, but their designs have been
rejected by Old Mr. Lambert. Is it because the designs are merely rough and dry sketches?
Will it be better if I make the design look more delicate and beautiful?
Avery pondered over it seriously.
Old Mr. Lambert has son who holds a high position in society. He himself had also been a part of the
upper echelons of society before he retired a few years ago.
Someone as distinguished as him had been used to having people at his beck and call. Naturally, after
his retirement, there would be lesser people who would support him, which would definitely make him
feel a sense of loss. This probably has a part to y in his peculiar temperament.
Traditional architecture suits old people like him so that they could retire healthily and peacefully.
They could nt many nts and flowers in the courtyard and have a few pets. That would be very
good.
Life in the city is exciting but stifling. If I can create a paradise, I believe no one will reject the idea of
living there. Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.
With that thought, Avery abandoned her earlier half-finished design and started to create a new design.
She drew with great ease, and soon, it was alreadyte into the night.
Avery only realized with shock that it was nearly one in the morning when Cayden came back and
hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder.
He was stunned when he saw Avery''s sketch.
He knew that although Avery had a gentle personality, her design did not make seem that way.
As expected, she did not disappoint him, for her sketch made his eyes lit up.
It looked like a park, and on top of the gracefulness of a traditional house, Avery''s design had modern
and fashionable elements to it.
The courtyard was spectacr and mesmerizing, filled with lush green trees. Green grass carpeted the
ground, and there were artificial mountains and waterfalls as well. What was the most eye-catching
was rows of cherry blossom trees surrounding the courtyard.
The shades of pink, green, and natural colors were so beautiful that Cayden almost forgot to breathe.
The addition of a plot of fertilend with vegetables and crops growing on it made the ce looked all
the more otherworldly.
Not only that, there were a few chicks running about happily and finding food. And in the pond nearby
were a few elegant white swans.
Cayden sat next to Avery and carried her so that she was sitting on hisp.
He kissed her cheek and did not bother to conceal the admiration in his eyes.
However, Cayden also did not pull any punches as he pointed out certain shorings in her design.
“Not bad. The sketch is beautiful, but there are rooms for improvement. Look. You only thought of
creating a paradise but ignored the overall cost. You have to take into consideration Old Mr. Lambert''s
budget for the house. Also, your design is far too conservative. There are not enough technological
elements, and this will create problems for Old Mr. and Mrs. Lambert...”
Avery listened attentively.
Cayden''sments were concise and straight to the point.
Although he was the CEO of Trident Group, he was also a renowned architect.
Avery knew that Cayden had a bountiful portfolio.
Cayden''s designs were breathtakingly beautiful, and no one could seed in copying his style.
Because of that, he had a great reputation internationally. He was also the only Aplothian among the
top ten architects in the world.
He was someone Avery admired and respected.
Under Cayden''s guidance, Avery quickly fixed her designs.
When she was done, it was already past two in the morning.
Taking in Avery''s exhausted look, Cayden bent down and scooped her up.
“Ah... Put me down... I haven''t saved my design!” Avery yelled in a panic.
Cayden held her in his arms and pressed a few keys on the keyboard, sessfully saving the design.
Thereafter, he turned to the bedroom.
“It''ste. You should rest soon. You wouldn''t want to bete for work tomorrow, right?” Cayden ignored
her struggles. He held her firmly in his arms, then kicked open the door to the bedroom.
Averyy in his embrace and enjoyed the warmth from his body, but his firm attitude made her feel a
little uneasy.
She had been controlling her anger ever since the incident with Allie earlier in the day. At that moment,
she could not help but say petntly, “Your mom doesn''t want you to be with a woman like me...”
Allie''s derogatory words echoed in her mind again, which made her feel rather ufortable.
“Avery, do you think I''m that kind of man who can be easily swayed by others? Besides, it''s not like you
don''t know your ce in my heart.” Cayden was about to lose his temper.
He could not help but want to teach her a lesson. However, when he took in her pitiful look, he held
back his anger.
Everything was his mother''s fault.
