It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

After an hour of rest, Apple started shooting again and everything went well, although she didn't find a chance to discuss the matter with Ivan from before any longer.

But, according to Apple, it was better if she didn't mention the matter at all, because that would only make Ivan wary and of course that was the last thing Apple wanted.

"Ah, Ivan, can I borrow your cell phone for a moment to call Adrian?" asked Apple as she approached the man, while he was checking today's output. "My phone is dead, out of battery." Apple lifted her phone and showed its dark screen.

"Of course." Ivan then took his cell phone and unlocked it before handing it over to Apple. "Here."

"Thank you." Apple then walked a little away from Ivan and started fiddling with the phone before she put it to her ear and waited for someone on the other end to pick up the call.

Meanwhile, Ivan continued to follow Apple's movements from the corner of his eyes.

And when suddenly Apple turned around, Ivan spontaneously smiled at her, but it was obvious that he was watching the girl.

Of course this didn't go unnoticed by Apple, although she didn't say anything after she returned the phone.

"I'll go first, Adrian will wait for me in the lobby," Apple said as she handed back Ivan's cell phone. "Thank you."

"Don't forget that three days from today we have a night photo shoot near the beach," Ivan reminded.

"Of course," replied Apple lightly, although it sounded very strange to shoot near the beach, but she didn't think anything of it. "There are more?"

Ivan shook his head. "I'll send you today's photos after we have finished editing them."

Apple patted him lightly on the shoulder and waved her hand at him, rushing to leave from there.

After Apple had left, the man signaled to the two men who were still there for them to take care of the rest of the work, since they had very little to do, after which he left the room.

Ivan then found a quiet corner in the corridor not far from the studio and took out his cell phone, which had been borrowed by Apple and checked the number the girl had called.

He then took a screenshot and sent the number to a foreign number he programmed as 'G', by chat; this is A's bodyguard number. After that, he sent it.

It wasn't clear who the number was sent to, but for sure, Ivan had very different intentions from what Apple had in mind when they met before.

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

"You got it?" asked Apple as soon as she got in the car and sat in the front seat, next to Adrian, as he drove the car away from the Building.

"Yup." Adrian then gave Apple a tablet so she could check it herself.

What Apple did just now of course could be categorized as something illegal, but in a situation like this and in this line of work, the line between legal and illegal seemed too vague.

"Okay..." Apple then spent the next five minutes checking Ivan's phone and found some messages that had been deleted and of course this made her feel suspicious and increased her curiosity, what exactly did Ivan want?

They had been friends for a long time and it was safe to say that Ivan is one of her best friends, even though they hadn't communicated as intensely in the past year or two.

"Hmm?" Apple frowned when she saw Ivan send a message to someone with the initials 'G' as the recipient. He sent a screenshot containing the number that Apple had dialed, namely Adrian's number, by chat; This is A's bodyguard number.

"A? Does he mean me?" murmured Apple.

"What is it?" asked Adrian when he saw the crease between Apple's eyebrows.

"He texted someone."

"Suspicious message?"

Apple nodded.

"We'll check it out later. Maybe your instincts are right, he's a little suspicious." Adrian then turned the car toward the freeway, but Apple still didn't notice.

"Yeah, he's suspicious," said Apple, confirming Adrian's comments on this matter. "Can you recover deleted messages?" asked Apple, she then lifted her head from the tablet in her lap to look at Adrian.

"I'll call someone from the IT department to take care of it," said Adrian, but then he thought for a moment. "I think Mr. Tordoff can do that."

"Hmm?" Apple looked surprised for a moment but then she smiled. "Yeah, he can do everything." Her last words sounded like she was very proud of her boyfriend.

But then, Apple looked around and realized that they weren't on the way to the penthouse where she and Jayden lived. Because the way to the penthouse didn't cross a highway like this.

"Where are we going?" asked Apple, looking around her.

Adrian grimaced slightly as he answered this. "Mr. Tordoff just said not to tell you anything about his plan."

"What does it mean?" Apple frowned in confusion.

"You know, this is a surprise."

"A surprise?" Apple pursed her lips when she heard those words. "Last time I had a surprise from Jayden, he took me away for a three hour journey."

Adrian laughed at that. Apple must be talking about the surprise Jayden gave her when he took her to the island where his parents lived.

"No, this place won't be that far," said Adrian, reassuring Apple, who seemed completely unconvinced by his words.

"Where are we going?" Apple reiterated her question, because she didn't like to be kept in the dark.

"You'll find out later."

"Just say it now."

"I can't say."

"Why?" asked Apple, then she lowered her voice. "Just tell me, I wouldn't tell Jayden even if you had told me, I'll pretend to be surprised later."

"I really can not." Then Adrian told Apple the reason by glancing at his collar, where there was a small device for tapping conversations.

Jayden took things too far to ensure this surprise wouldn't fail.
