Chapter 432 WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
Jayden had no idea that he had ever met Apple before, while the girl didn’t seem to remember this either.
Naturally, Apple was still too young to remember while Jayden’s childhood memories got blurred because of the kidnapping incident that happened to him when he was fifteen years old.
After attending several meetings back to back until the evening, night finally came and Jayden prepared to go to the bar, where he could ‘catch’ the man who according to his informant was a member of the group who called themselves “The Serpent.”
It was the members of that organization that had kidnapped him twelve years ago which left Jayden deeply traumatized.
His father had tried to trace the main base of this organization, but it was too difficult while the people who kidnapped him had been caught and given very severe sentences.
Maybe that was why Ramon wasn’t really interested in the organization anymore. While on the other hand, Jayden wouldn’t be satisfied until he was able to get to the roots of the organization and destroy it.
Therefore, he was more involved in underhanded dealings and activities in the black market than being behind the desk as Misha and his sister did.
Even though Alina was very worried about her brother, she and Misha knew that nothing could stop Jayden if he had focused on something.
“You have to stop this obsession Jayden,” Misha said with a cold expression on his face.
Sometimes, Jayden felt that his cousin looked a lot more like his father than he did, especially when he put on a cold face like this and started talking seriously.
“I’ll lose my direction in life if I stop what I love,” Jayden replied in an exaggerated and dramatic tone.
Hearing that, Misha couldn’t help but be speechless as he couldn’t find any words he could say to Jayden.
This cousin of his was indeed difficult to guess. He was always too stubborn and followed his own whims.
“Up to you.” In the end, that was all Misha could say before he turned and walked away from Jayden, leaving the man in his office to prepare himself for who knows what he might face tonight.
After Misha left and Jayden was alone in the room, he called Richard, someone who had temporarily filled Pyro’s position, since Apple hadn’t arrived.
Jayden hired Richard as one of the spies to dig for information in the black market. He took him in when his previous boss was about to cut off his hand because of a mistake he made.
And even though the man was grateful that Jayden helped him, Jayden still couldn’t trust him one hundred percent.
It was like a dangerous game Jayden chose to play.
He kept these dangerous people close to him to facilitate his own movement in the black market because they knew the terrain well, but on the other hand, Jayden couldn’t let them get too close, because they might stab him when he was off guard.
This was one of the concerns of Misha and his family…
“Yeah, I’ll meet you there, bring some people over…” Jayden said, and ended the call before preparing to leave.
=====================
Jayden’s right hand was on the shoulder of a woman who looked very beautiful and seductive in a short sleeveless dress. She had long and reddish hair. Even in this dark room condition, anyone who looked at them, would immediately notice her beauty. They stared at the girl, no longer having time to look at the man she was with because it would only be a waste of time.
And that was exactly what Jayden wanted, he wanted all eyes on him to shift to the woman beside him, while he hid his skillet between his shoulders and neck.
Even though he hugged the girl named Hellen, who laughed every time he spoke and was very boring with all her flirtations that sounded so cliché, Jayden’s mind was elsewhere. And although his lips curved into a smile, Jayden’s eyes were trained on the table across from his desk, where he could see three men talking seriously, taking advantage of the busy bar situation where no one could hear them.
“Hey, focus on me,” Hellen sulked when she didn’t get Jayden’s attention. The girl pursed her lips when she saw Jayden chuckling before leaning over to kiss her lips.
Well, it was a lot easier to make the girl beside him happy and stop sulking.
But then, when Jayden saw one of the three people standing there, he broke the kiss and kissed Hellen on both cheeks.
“Can you order some drinks and food?” Jayden asked, handing a card to Hellen and made the girl’s eyes sparkle. Without much to say, she immediately stood up to order drinks and food, even though they had more than enough on the table.
Jayden then looked in a different direction where his subordinates were waiting for a signal from him, only then did the man stand up to follow one of the three men who had left earlier.
However, when the other two men started to stand up from their seats, Jayden prepared himself to leave after the two of them.
However, the two of them seemed to be still discussing something important and were silent near their table.
Jayden was about to move when they made a move to leave, but just before he could act on his impulse, someone sat on the seat across from him and quickly pulled the bottle of water in front of him.
Quickly, Jayden’s hand flew to the gun on his waist, but when he found out who the woman had so boldly approached him, he was instantly stunned.
“What are you doing here?!” Jayden’s voice sounded much higher than he expected, but then he looked around him, where the people he had brought had prepared to approach him because of this uninvited girl.
However, Jayden shook his head subtly, asking them to stay put.
“Help me,” Apple said.
