Chapter 488 I WILL SEE HIM
Chapter 488 I WILL SEE HIM
“This is what drives me crazy.” Apple picked up her phone which was ringing again and displayed the name of the caller. She hadn’t heard Jayden coming toward her earlier, but that didn’t matter now, because this man was already beside her and he was the one who had to sort out the trouble he had caused. What an annoying man…
Jayden glanced at the caller’s name and looked pensive for a moment.
Good. At least he didn’t bring out that light laugh or smile of his, so Apple knew he too thought she was in trouble because he had made false news about their relationship.
“What are you trying to do?” Apple asked, who quickly pulled the phone away from Jayden, who was about to pick it up.
“Fix the trouble I caused.”
“By?”
“Talking to Pyro.”
“What are you going to tell my father?”
Jayden shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. “I don’t know, I’ll improvise in the middle of the conversation later.”
“What? You can’t do that.” Apple hissed, and started hitting Jayden’s arm in annoyance.
“Of course I can,” Jayden replied calmly and loosened his tie. “That’s how I solve problems. By improvisation.”
“You are the worst person that I have ever known!” Apple said angrily and then glared at Jayden.
“Worse than your ex-boyfriend sleeping with your best friend?” Jayden asked again and then he jumped out of his seat when he saw Apple standing up in a rage because he had brought up her ex.
Well, maybe Jayden had gone too far…
“Okay, I won’t talk about that anymore.” Jayden raised his hands, showing a sign of surrender. “Can’t we just make peace? I’m so tired, all day having to go here and there to take care of the Gevano family who don’t know themselves,” Jayden complained in a low voice. “At least give me a break and don’t hit me, okay?”
“What are you going to tell my father?” Apple picked up the phone again and showed Jayden that her father had called again.
“Give it to me.” Only, Jayden didn’t wait for her permission, and took it quickly. His hand was so fast and agile that Apple didn’t notice it and suddenly the phone had changed hands. How could he do that?
Apple was quite surprised, but then she immediately tried to stop him in a panic. “We should at least have a briefing first, right?”
“I’m not used to doing briefings, usually my personal assistant does those kinds of trivial things.” Jayden then put his finger to Apple’s lips, to tell her not to say anything while he picked up the umpteenth call from Pyro to his daughter’s cell phone.
Seeing that, Apple’s eyes widened. She then pushed Jayden’s hand away from her lips and moved her hand, indicating that Jayden should press the loudspeaker button, so she could hear the conversation too.
Only, Jayden used this moment to tease her, so instead of hitting the loudspeaker, he ran away and locked himself in the first room he found.
Asshole! Apple also wanted to hear what the two of them have to say! What if Jayden said something that was a big no-no?
No one could guarantee that the man would give an answer that wouldn’t give the other person a heart attack!
Jayden Tordoff was very hard to read.
“D*mn you, Jayden!” Apple cursed at the closed door, but she didn’t do anything. She didn’t even try to bang the door open.
Apple was too scared to face Pyro’s wrath and even picking up a phone call from him made her hands sweat.
Her father was rarely angry, but there was one time Apple saw him angry and she swore it was the most horrific thing she’d ever seen in her life.
Therefore, there was no way Apple could rest easy upon learning that she had violated the only thing her father had forbidden her to do.
And what would Jayden say in response to this?
Apple felt utterly stupid as she pressed her ear against the closed door, glaring fiercely at Jimmy and the two other bodyguards came walking behind her, while blatantly laughing at her antics.
Apple waved her hand in annoyance, asking them to get out of there because this was an embarrassing situation.
She felt like a stalker and this hurt Apple’s pride.
But, even though she had done that, she still couldn’t hear anything of the conversation between Jayden and her father, not even the sound of the man’s reply.
It was very quiet in the room, nothing could be heard.
Asshole. Why was everything in the Tatum residence so fine and of such extraordinary quality that even the slightest sound could not be heard?
In fact, Apple felt that her ears were almost one with the door now.
Giving up, Apple finally sat on the floor leaning against the closed door behind her. She took off her shoes and threw them at Jimmy and the other two bodyguards, who were intently watching her, as if she were an entertaining spectacle.
F*ck them too! Apple grumbled inwardly.
But luckily, it didn’t take long for Apple to figure out what Jayden was talking about with her father, because two minutes later, the bedroom door behind her snapped open.
Apple didn’t notice and almost fell backward because she was leaning against the door.
“What are you doing?” Jayden asked, holding up Apple, before her head could hit the floor and cause serious injury. “You know it’s dangerous to lean on a moving object, right?” Jayden told Apple while flicking her forehead.
Luckily, Jayden had great reflexes, because otherwise, Apple might have gone back to suffering the headache she had this morning again with double the pain.
Apple immediately moved away from Jayden, crawling away from this man. “What did you say to my father?” she asked as soon as she put some distance between them.
Jayden then sat on the floor throwing Apple’s phone back at her. The girl quickly caught her phone.
“Nothing much, I just said that I will see him tomorrow.”
