It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Jayden could see the bruises on Apple's neck and it made him feel uncomfortable. He had never hurt a woman thus far, because all his life he had always been filled with love by his mother and sister, therefore to see Apple have a wound inflicted by himself, made Jayden feel guilty.

"I am sorry," Jayden said with a tone full of regret. "I did not mean it."

"Let's just say we're tied, you should compress your eye too, because it's starting to look bruised already," Apple replied nonchalantly, but Jayden couldn't help but smile as he touched the side of his injured face.

"You hit me with all your heart," Jayden said, then walked away with the AC remote in his hand.

He had to go to bed soon, because he had important meetings to attend in a few hours, not to mention that he had to talk to Pyro first thing in the morning, which meant sacrificing his sleep time again.

"Oh, yeah, wake me up when Pyro is awake, there's something I want to talk to him about."

"Just set an alarm on your phone."

"I have a hard time waking up even though I set the alarm." Especially after a long night coupled with the fact that he lacked sleep. Not to mention it was all because Apple had hidden the AC remote.

Ugh! This girl really annoying.

Meanwhile, seeing Jayden innocently enter her room again, Apple could only purse her lips and turn her body to look at her reflection in the mirror. It was true what Jayden said earlier; her neck indeed starting to look bruised.

Apple took a deep breath, she couldn't imagine the depth of trauma that Jayden had gone through to make him lose his mind like that and not be aware of his surroundings.

Then lazily, Apple took a compress and started compressing the bruises on her neck. Her father would make an unnecessary fuss if he saw these bruises.

But, it was also impossible for Apple to cover it up within a few hours. Bruises like this would take at least three days to fade.

Ugh! that guy really annoying.

===================

Apple couldn't sleep anymore when the sun started to shine. She decided to make breakfast for the three of them because usually her father would be up soon.

Apple looked into the refrigerator and found that their groceries were running low and she had to go out for her monthly shopping spree.

Therefore, Apple made breakfast from available food ingredients and one of the dishes she was very good at was scrambled eggs and fried potatoes.

It didn't take long for Apple to make breakfast and when she was done, she could hear her father's bedroom door opening. Shortly after, Pyro staggered into the kitchen at the smell of breakfast. His still sleepy eyes were only half open as he yawned widely.

"Wash your face and brush your teeth first before eating," Apple said, slapping her father's hand which was about to pick up the fried potatoes from the plate.

Pyro snorted in displeasure, but then he realized that something was off. "Why are there three plates for breakfast here?" There were only two of them, so who was the third plate for?

Apple lifted her head from the pan and announced that Jayden had stayed the night.

"He is here?" Pyro asked with a surprised face, instantly his sleepiness disappeared as he frowned at his only daughter hard.

"Yeah, he's stayed here."

"Where is he sleeping?"

"In my room," Apple answered directly.

"WHAT?!"

Apple dropped the spoon she was holding because she was surprised to hear her father's voice screaming loudly enough.

"What? Why?" Even at this point, Apple still hadn't realized what was wrong with her answer.

But, her father posted yet another question to her.

"Then you two slept together in the same room?!" Pyro felt that the wounds he had suffered from Jayden's stupidity and impulsiveness meant nothing at all when he thought that something had happened between the two of them.

Jayden wasn't a bad guy, but as someone who had followed him for a long time, of course Pyro knew what he was doing and the kinds of women around him.

And knowing that, how could Pyro allow his daughter to be in the clutches of such a man?!

"What?" Apple frowned when she saw her father's exaggerated reaction, but as soon as she realized what her father meant, she immediately widened her eyes. "No, no, wait a minute, you misunderstood." She waved her hands frantically to stop her father from misunderstanding her.

"Explain to me, what's the misunderstanding?" Pyro put on a fierce face and folded his arms across his chest. He then glanced at Apple's bedroom door which was still closed.

"I didn't sleep in my room!" Apple exclaimed quickly. "That bastard occupied my room and I was made to sleep on the front couch!"

Apple then showed him the still unfolded blanket she hadn't tidied, which was still on the couch in the living room.

Pyro quickly followed the direction indicated by his daughter and found the blanket which proved that she indeed slept on the sofa last night.

And at that moment he burst out laughing. "So you were forced to sleep in the living room while he monopolized your room?"

Apple scowled. "It's not funny."

"He is a spoilt little brat. He doesn't want to sleep on the couch, he just wants to sleep on the bed, he doesn't even want to sleep in the car," Pyro said.

However, Apple doubted her father's last sentence, because Jayden fell asleep in the car last night when she was driving them home.

"Okay, since you are awake, wake him up. He said he wanted to talk to you and asked me to wake him up when you are up," Apple said, groaning and still hearing her father's laughter as the man walked into her room to wake the picky and petty businessman up.
