It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

471 A DATE

Jayden was startled when he saw someone come out from under the table all of a sudden before looking at him with teary eyes. Oh, he almost forgot about this girl.

"Help us, please." Maureen came out from under the table and spoke timidly.

Jayden frowned as he looked at Apple who was still eating, not at all bothered by the fact that Maureen had just emerged from under the table.

"Help us…" Maureen pleaded, she then sat back in her chair again and looked at Jayden expectantly, but there was a look of amazement in the way she looked at the Tordoff heir.

It was her first time seeing Jayden Tordoff up close and the man's face was completely different from the one she always saw in magazines or the news.

In fact, he was ten times more handsome than that. No wonder so many women were crazy about him.

But Jayden's handsome face didn't guarantee his friendly demeanor, he waved his hand at one of the men there and told him to take Maureen away so as not to interrupt this conversation.

"Where are you taking her?" Apple asked Jayden's men.

"He's just going to put her on another table in the restaurant," Jayden replied lightly.

"She's pregnant," Apple said, telling the man to be careful.

"Child of your ex-lover?" Jayden asked, confirming this.

But, Apple just looked at him fiercely and said curtly. "You have other matters to attend to, don't you?"

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

The conversation between Jayden and Jerome ended sooner than Apple expected, but that was actually because Jayden mixed in a bit of threatening here and there while talking to Jerome.

And it was only then that Apple realized how manipulative Jayden could be when he wanted something and this was proven right by how he steered the conversation between the two of them in his own favor, while Apple only listened to them.

Perhaps it could be said that it was a very rare coincidence to find out that her former group had, in fact, cooperated with Jayden's enemies and everything had brought them into this situation.

"I'll take you home," Jayden told Apple when their conversation was over, while the expression on Jerome's face didn't show that he was pleased with the outcome they had agreed on.

He looked annoyed that he didn't completely get what he wanted and Apple couldn't blame him for that, because negotiating with Jayden could be one hellish experience.

"Okay," Apple replied, not turning down the offer, because she had left her motorbike in that abandoned building. "You should call the guy who held Kyle and say you were okay. You have to let him go."

Jerome snorted. He then made a phone call and told his people to let Kyle go, according to what he had promised Apple earlier.

And after Jerome turned off his cell phone, Apple nodded in agreement and was about to walk to catch up with Jayden who was talking to someone with a serious expression.

But, before she had gone far, the girl was then surprised when she saw Jerome suddenly fell on the table and didn't move again after he drank his coffee, because he was thirsty after a long argument with Jayden.

"You said you didn't put anything in the coffee!?" Apple turned her head and looked at Jayden with a little panic, when she saw Jerome's condition.

"I said I didn't put anything in your drink, not his." Jayden defended himself. "He should know not to drink carelessly when he's with the enemy."

Of course Jerome knew, but seeing Apple drinking her drink and being fine coupled with his anger toward Jayden, it seemed he had forgotten the basic rule. Moreover, he felt safe after reaching an agreement with Jayden and felt that they were on the same side.

But, what he didn't know was; Jayden never let anyone actually be on the same side as him.

"Okay, whatever Jayden." Apple didn't want to argue with this guy right now, at least she knew that Kyle had been released and as for Maureen, she could take care of herself.

Apple had done what she could to help both of them and now it was up to the two of them.

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

"So, after you find out that the people behind all this are the Gevano family, what are you going to do?" Apple asked Jayden curiously when they were both in the car and of course she was the one driving the car, while Jayden was playing games on his cellphone.

"Oh, of course I'll go against them and settle scores with them." It was a simple answer that Apple couldn't understand.

"What do you mean by that?" Apple asked in bewilderment.

"It is not difficult to bring down a company like the Gevano family." Jayden lifted his head from the game on his phone and smirked at Apple. "The Gevano family isn't one of the big families like mine, so it would be easy for me to destroy it."

"You said that lightly."

"What's difficult about that?" Jayden then returned to focus on his game. "The thing that is a little tricky is; how can I gather the evidence."

"It would be easy if you had access to their company data."

"I thought so too." Jayden then smirked at Apple. "Great minds think alike."

Apple did not respond to Jayden's latest comments.

"But, how are you going to do that?" Apple asked curiously. Stealing data from a company was not an easy thing to do.

"I have a plan."

"I don't want to get involved."

"Oh, of course you were involved. You are in the plan."

Apple scowled. "I don't like your plan."

"Stop complaining," Jayden said. "My plan this time is not to hurt you."

Apple snorted. "What is your plan?"
