Chapter 712: WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
Apple could smell the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen, where she found the man cooking breakfast for the two of them.
“Jayden, have you seen my phone?” asked Apple as she walked into the kitchen.
Jayden smiled very cheerfully when he saw Apple’s sleepy face as she sat on the bar stool and rested her head on the counter top.
“I kept it. Don’t look at your phone for a while.” Jayden turned his body and stared at Apple for a while before he answered. He looked a little weird when he said that, like he was annoyed? But why?
“Why?” Jayden wasn’t usually like this. Did he see something on her phone? But, it was not usual for Jayden to check Apple’s phone either, it was simply not like him.
“I don’t want you to read the news that’s going around right now.” Jayden continued to cook. He got the news this morning and it really pissed him off, and of course, the news was about Apple.
If he was very upset just after taking a look at the article, what about her?
“Hmm? What news? What is it about?” Apple tilted her head and Jayden was serving the fried rice he’d made on a plate, because it was the only dish he could make well.
“You better not take a look at it,” Jayden said grumpily, he wasn’t mad at Apple, he was just annoyed at the news out there being spread by the nearly bankrupt news company.
“I can also watch television if you don’t want to return my phone,” Apple said calmly.
“I disconnected the internet in this place,” Jayden muttered, then sat down next to Apple, all under the disbelief gaze of the woman. He had already guessed that this would happen.
“Jayden,” Apple said in a deep voice as she called his name and looked at the man who was now sitting beside her.
“Apple,” Jayden replied in a matching tone. He was also looking at Apple more closely, but of course he couldn’t make this girl forgo her intention to find out more about what really happened and why Jayden’s reaction was like this.
“Jayden, I’m really annoyed that you’re hiding something from me, you should have known from the second attack you did on the Gevano family,” Apple said firmly. “I’m not that weak, so stop treating me like I’m made of glass.”
Jayden knew that this might have gone too far, but either way, he couldn’t help but feel anxious, because he really wanted nothing to happen to the child that Apple was carrying right now.
But, of course it was a very unreasonable thing to isolate Apple from the outside world.
“Eat first, I’ll tell you later,” Jayden said finally relenting, of course he would relent, who else would he succumb to like this?
Since Jayden had already promised, Apple started eating and she didn’t expect that this dish to be so delicious.
“So? What does it taste like on your tongue? Is this to your taste?” Jayden asked worriedly. “We can order whatever you want if you don’t like this.”
Jayden noticed that Apple’s appetite was inconsistent now, she didn’t really like calamari any more and started leaning toward sweet cakes in the flavors of chocolate and strawberry.
Therefore, Jayden began to pay more attention to what she liked and what she consumed. It was nice to know there was a life growing inside Apple…
“This is delicious,” said Apple cheerfully and this made Jayden look so much happier, he started thinking about cooking some more dishes like this later. “I just found out that you’re good at cooking,” she teased.
“Oh, if you like, I’ll cook for you all the time, what do you want for lunch later?” Jayden asked enthusiastically. He was starting to think he should buy cookbooks to find a variety of other foods, so Apple wouldn’t get bored.
“Are you not working?” asked Apple with a furrowed brow, Jayden should have gone to the office by now, shouldn’t he? Even though the apartment and office were closer, he would be late if he didn’t leave now.
“Ah… that…” Jayden tried to change the subject, but Apple had already seen through his intentions.
“Are you planning to skip work again?” asked Apple in a deep voice.
“Can’t I be by your side? I want to be by your side during your pregnancy,” Jayden whined. “Anyway, Misha has returned to the office, he has started work again, therefore, it’s fine…”
“What do you mean it’s okay?”
Speak of the devil…
Misha suddenly appeared and immediately sat on the bar stool in front of the couple who were looking at him in shock.
“How did you get into this place!?” Jayden exclaimed in surprise when he saw his cousin already in front of him. “I believe that I have changed the password of this apartment!”
“You’re still using the same password, cousin, you just changed the order of the numbers,” Misha said as he took Jayden’s plate and started eating, but his forehead creased just as he tasted the fried rice. “Who made this dish? it feels very strange.”
“Is he still using my birthday as the password for this apartment?” asked Apple, she didn’t understand how Jayden could be so reckless.
“Of course, how else would I have guessed?” Misha replied casually, but he continued to eat.
“I made the fried rice, if you don’t like it, don’t eat it,” Jayden said angrily, as he tried to take the plate back from Misha, but his cousin had already pushed his hand away.
“I didn’t know you could cook,” Misha mumbled as he took a bite of the fried rice and ate quietly which left Jayden even more annoyed.
“So, what are you doing here? Did you finally realize that you missed me?” Jayden asked nonchalantly and this made Misha frown.
“I came here to drag you back to work.”
