It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Apple was surprised when she overheard Adrian's conversation with someone on the phone who said they had prepared everything for an ambush mission involving the Gevano family tomorrow.

Apple had asked about this a number of times, but Jayden always brushed it off and said she didn't have to think about it.

Therefore, Apple did not expect them to make a move tomorrow.

"We both know you're lying, Adrian. Let's not waste our time and tell me the truth," Apple said in a voice that sounded very cold, as if she could see right through Adrian's soul and it gave off the same vibe he felt whenever he pissed off Jayden Tordoff.

This must be because Jayden had rubbed his scary vibe on her.

"What has Jayden planned for Gevano?" Apple demanded an answer from Adrian regarding this and she would not drop the topic until Adrian answered her.

"Apple… look…" Adrian tried to explain, while his brain was working hard to get him to avoid this question, but he couldn't find a good reason for himself to convince Apple not to pursue this matter.

"I am listening, what do you want to say now?" asked Apple, who then leaned against the wall and folded her arms across her chest. "So?"

And in the end, Adrian gave up and bowed his head defeatedly because he didn't know what to say to Apple now. He felt very uncomfortable telling her this.

"Look, you shouldn't know about this plan," he said.

"I figured that out already," Apple replied.

"Mr. Tordoff has his reasons for not wanting to tell you about this plan."

"I can imagine what would be the reason." Apple nodded. She knew that Jayden's reason for not telling her was for her own safety. But, wasn't she there when Jayden carried out the raid on the Harbor a while ago?

Damn! He even left her alone on the ship!

"Therefore, if you want to know this in more detail, you should ask Mr. Tordoff, because I can't tell you." Adrian grimaced as he said this. "But, you shouldn't know this."

"Well, you should have been more careful if it's a secret," Apple said as she walked out of the house.

"I was careful, you were eavesdropping on my phone call," Adrian protested. "Where are you going?" asked Adrian when he saw Apple walking toward the gate and about to leave the house. Where else was this woman going?

"You said I should ask Jayden this directly, so that's what I am going to do," Apple said lightly. She then walked to the car and asked one of the bodyguards for the keys.

"You will get me fired if Jayden finds out you found out about this plan from me," Adrian grumbled. He then got in the car too, but sat in the passenger seat next to Apple.

"Don't worry, you are not going to get fired," Apple said casually, then she pulled out her phone and called Jayden.

"How can you be so sure of that?" asked Adrian with a frown, he then put on the seatbelt.

"Of course because he loves me," replied Apple dramatically and this made Adrian frown, showing an expression that clearly said he didn't like the way Apple was talking.

"You are not cut out for talking so sweetly like that, you make me cringey," he grumbled.

However, Apple did not respond to this because Jayden had picked up the call.

"Yes, my lovely fiancee?" said Jayden and this made Adrian feel like crawling out of the car right away.

Apple raised an eyebrow, even though Jayden had called her many times with endearment words like this, she still couldn't understand how he could call her such a tacky nickname without shame. "You are still in the office, aren't you? I will be there."

"Yeah, I am still in the office," Jayden said. "I will be home in about two hours, do you want me to bring you some more calamari?" Jayden asked. It had become a routine for Jayden to bring her the calamari because it seemed Apple really enjoyed that particular dish.

"No need, I'll buy it myself, I'll come to your office," Apple said as she started the car engine.

"Hmm?" Jayden mumbled. "You miss me so much that you want to come over to my office?" he asked again and this made Apple close her eyes for a moment.

Well, she must praise Jayden's level of confidence...

"Yeah, you could say that," Apple said to Jayden's delight and even through the phone call, Apple could sense that the man was smiling happily now.

"You are going to bring me calamari?" Jayden asked and this made Apple laugh.

"Yes, I'll bring you calamari."

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

Some staff who were still in the office looked surprised when they saw Apple there. They didn't expect Apple to come here while rumors about the relationship between Apple and the male model were still circulating out there.

And this was the first time for Apple to appear in public after the rumors came out.

Some eyes stared at her covertly but some were openly staring at her. They watched Apple's every move, especially since she wasn't wearing any fancy or extravagant clothes, because she hadn't planned to come to this office in the first place.

Apple only wore a white t-shirt and jeans, she didn't even carry a bag and only brought her cellphone.

And when she got into the elevator, there were two employees who also went in with her.

Apple tried to ignore them and act casual, carrying a bag of two servings of calamari in her hand.

But, when Apple reached Jayden's floor and the elevator doors opened, she could see the man was waiting for her with a grin.

"How do you know that I've arrived?" asked Apple who walked straight to Jayden.

"That's what CCTV is for," Jayden replied casually.
