Chapter 573 WELCOME TO TORDOFF FAMILY
Chapter 573 WELCOME TO TORDOFF FAMILY
While Apple was looking at the horses in the stables, where horse number eleven was being fed, Hailee was having a brief chat with the jockey. He was a cheerful young man who responded to Hailee’s every question enthusiastically and politely.
It was clear how much he loved this equestrian sport.
Meanwhile, Apple strolled around the stables to have a look at the place, as this was Apple’s first time being there. She felt very happy to have this experience.
It was safe to say that if it weren’t for Jayden, it would be very unlikely that Apple would be in this place, with these people.
It was true what Jayden said, there was no harm in having that man as her boyfriend, it did sound a little ridiculous, but everything he said was true.
It was just that, of course having a man like Jayden had its own challenges. For example, the situation she found herself in the next moment.
“Your name is Apple, right?” called a voice from behind Apple that made her sigh.
Apple recognized this voice, she didn’t even have to turn her head to see who had called her.
“Yes, is there anything I can help you with?” asked Apple as she turned around and found Tania and a woman beside her. At this moment, the last thing Apple wanted was to be around these two women, whoever is the beautiful woman beside Tania.
“You don’t remember what happened last night?” asked Tania in a cynical voice.
Hearing that, Apple wanted to cover her face with her hands because every time someone asked about last night’s incident, she would immediately imagine what happened between her and Jayden, not the brawl between Jayden and Brian…
She had to stop thinking about it.
“I remember,” Apple replied curtly, her face devoid of any reaction.
“Then?” demanded Tania.
“So what?” Apple asked back in confusion.
“I’m waiting for your apology,” said Tania in a very curt tone. She looked as if Apple had owed her something so precious and had to apologize on her knees.
“Apology?” Apple repeated the word. She burst out laughing when she heard that, because to her it was completely unreasonable and Tania was totally wrong if she thought she could make Apple apologize to her. “What did I do wrong?” asked Apple with an innocent face, which made the two women look like they wanted to kill her.
Well, that was going to be really hard, because for Apple, it was going to be very easy to fight both of these women at once, so she had nothing to be afraid of.
“You’re still asking what you did wrong?” asked the woman standing beside Tania in a loud voice. “You really are shameless.”
“My bad, but may I know your name before you get angry at me?” asked Apple politely. She looked at the girl in front of her with a sweet smile on the corner of her lips.
When the girl heard Apple ask her name, a happy and smug smile curved the corners of her lips. “You want to know what my name is?” she asked, lifting his chin.
“I don’t mind if you don’t want to tell me,” Apple replied lightly. She was really tempted to pull out her phone and take a photo of the girl’s expression and then show it to Jayden. “I’m not at all interested.”
And so, the girl’s smug expression had now turned into a very annoyed one at what she just said.
If only Apple were given the chance to get away from these two women for a moment, then she would spend it laughing it off.
“You know who I am?!” The woman growled, pointing to herself. “I am Brian Tordoff’s sister, Isabella Tordoff! I am part of the Tordoff family.”
At this point, Apple was fed up with hearing them glorify the Tordoff family name while they had nothing to contribute. Apple firmly believed that Isabella didn’t even work and just used her surname to intimidate others, very typical…
“So?” asked Apple again.
“My brother has been beaten because of you!” cried Isabella furiously. She pointed her thin index finger at Apple.
Luckily, the gap between them wasn’t too narrow, so Apple didn’t have to worry about getting scratched by her sharp nails.
“Wait.” Apple raised her hand and laughed softly. “You want to say that you are upset because your brother was beaten by Jayden, but you are asking me to apologize?” Apple wanted to laugh as she summed up her current situation.
If Apple didn’t remember Jayden, Hailee, Misha and some of the great people she knew were Tordoffs, then she would think that everyone in this family had a shallow personality like Isabella did.
“Apologize now!” demanded Isabella. In her defense, she could not accept that her brother was beaten.
“But it wasn’t me who hit your brother, it was Jayden who hit him. If you want an apology, demand the right person.” Apple tilted her head as she looked at the two of them with calculating eyes. “You can demand an apology from me when I hit your brother.”
“What?!” Isabella screamed in disbelief, but then Tania nudged her body, warning her not to make a fuss because Hailee Tordoff was right around the corner and they didn’t want her to know about this hassle.
“I told you, didn’t I? Jayden Tordoff is very bad at judging women,” said Tania sarcastically. She folded her arms in front of her chest and smiled triumphantly.
“Don’t worry, I will convey your concerns,” said Apple sweetly, which made Tania widen her eyes. “I think he’ll be pleased to hear your observations.”
“Don’t make fun of us! You have no right to do that!” Isabella cried angrily, but Tania nudged her shoulder again, warning her to tone down her voice. “You really have disgraced the Tordoffs!”
At this point, Apple was speechless. She didn’t know where she was wrong, because she firmly believed that there was nothing wrong with what she said and she had absolutely no part in the beating last night.
Damn! Jayden even forbade her to hit someone.
If Apple had known that she would be blamed like this, she would have at least thrown in a punch or two to make their accusations more reliable.
“You really are shameless!” cried Isabella.
Apple took a deep breath when she heard the insults thrown at her, but then, the unexpected happened when Tania suddenly fell to the ground and ruffled her hair, then groaned in pain.
“Stop Apple, I didn’t mean it like that…” she said between her heartbreaking sobs.
“Hmm?” Apple looked at the girl who had fallen to the dirty ground on her butt. Even Isabella was confused for a moment, but then, Isabella’s eyes widened at something behind Apple and then she too joined in the play that was being orchestrated by Tania.
“Are you alright? Are you okay? I know you don’t like Tania for what happened last night, but that doesn’t mean you can just beat her up!” Isabella shouted fiercely, scolding Apple for something she didn’t do at all.
Woah… tsk tsk tsk… Apple felt the urge to applaud both of them for the swift change in their demeanors.
Were they serious?
Apple couldn’t understand how they could both lie about something like this and then, she realized what a pathetic act they were performing considering what they were doing…
“What’s going on here?”
It was Ramon’s voice, it sounded very deep and if you heard it for the first time, you could be sure you’d be surprised, especially if you didn’t expect the man to be there.
Quickly, Apple turned around and there, she could see Mr. and Mrs. Tordoff. Jayden immediately walked to her side and stood beside her.
“Are you okay?” Jayden asked.
Surprisingly enough, that was his first question while the two women in front of them were still wailing pitifully.
“What’s going on here?” Hailee asked with her voice heavy and full of authority, just like her husband.
“Mrs. Tordoff, sorry for the fuss,” Isabella said, but then Tania shook her head.
“Never mind, there’s no need to talk about it anymore,” said Tania quietly, then she propped herself up against Isabella, who helped her up. “It is my fault.”
On the other hand, Apple looked at the two of them with questioning eyes. What were the two of them actually doing? Is this a drama?
However, it seemed that this drama would only get more complicated because from behind Isabella and Tania, came two other people.
One person Apple recognized as Brian, while the middle-aged woman who had approached Hailee last night was beside him.
“What’s going on here?” the woman asked.
Meanwhile, the corners of Hailee’s lips curled up when she saw the woman. Well, she had been living too far from these people for quite a while, it looked like a play or two would be interesting before she and Ramon returned to their island.
“Mom.” Isabella then went to her mother, while Brian helped his fiancée. His face looked confused. He didn’t seem to know anything about the tricks these two women were trying to pull.
“What happened to you?” Brian then tidied Tania’s slightly messy hair.
But instead of answering Brian’s question, Tania hugged him and started crying.
Seeing this, Apple really wanted to laugh, so she snorted and shook her head, while Hailee glanced at her future daughter-in-law’s reaction and seemed to know the gist of this.
“Welcome to the Tordoff family,” Jayden whispered into Apple’s ear, smiling.
“I didn’t know your family was so interesting,” Apple replied in a whisper to the man.
“Of course, we are a very creative family.” Jayden glanced at Apple.
