"I want people to see my face, just in case they will forget my handsome face," Jayden said with his handsome arrogant face, but this time Apple was more immune to the charm he exuded.

"How could people forget it when your face was so clearly plastered on such a big banner?!" Apple pointed to a very large portrait of Jayden's face on an electric banner beside the company's building, along the street.



Not to mention his interviews to several media outlets regarding the discussion of the economy and matters surrounding these heavy topics.


In short, it is impossible for people to forget his handsome face to the point of needing him to show himself in person in public.

"Well," Jayden said in a low voice. "Those photos don't even look like or even close to my real self."


Jayden then grabbed Apple's hand and held it as they were about to cross the street, he also positioned himself on the outskirts of the road as they walked down the sidewalk.

And all these things Jayden did without him knowing it, because that's how he usually does when he walks with his older sister, Alina, and also his mother.


He was taught to be a gentleman, but sometimes his demeanor could change a hundred and eighty degrees and make anyone shake their head.



Not to mention when his emotions ran unstable. He could show a hundred facial expressions and moods alternately in a short time.


"You are a narcissist," Apple said quietly, but she didn't shake off Jayden's tight grip, because she knew it would only cause unnecessary fuss.



"I am not a narcissist," Jayden defended. "I am an optimist."


"Whatever," Apple mumbled and finally they both entered the cafe that Apple really wanted to go to.

When Apple worked for Jayden to replace her father as this man's personal bodyguard, she often had her lunch here, when Jayden wasn't going anywhere or forced her to have lunch with him.

And her favorite spot is the sofa in the corner of the room, near the big window, where she could see the street directly from there.

"You said you were not following me?" Apple scolded when she saw Jayden sitting across from her.

"I am not following you, I really want to sit here."

"In this cafe, in this seat? How can it be so coincidental that our thoughts are the same?" Apple asked sarcastically, but Jayden only replied lightly.

"Maybe it's a sign that we are a match from heaven."

Apple rolled her eyes when she heard that, but she didn't complain again after that, because she knew she wouldn't win any argument with this man in front of her.

And once the food had been ordered, the two of them fell silent. Well, Apple was silent, while Jayden played his boring game on his phone.

Seeing this, Apple was silent but since nothing caught her attention from the streets out there, she ended up paying attention to the game Jayden was playing.

It's a very outdated game. A game of snakes where the snakes have to eat their food which will eventually make their bodies elongate.

She didn't know why Jayden really likes this game.

"Ah!" they both screamed as the game Jayden was playing showed the words game over on the screen.

"You want to try playing it?" Jayden asked Apple, but the girl turned him down and turned her attention elsewhere.

"Of course not, it's a very outdated game," Apple said.

"But, I am sure you won't be able to win this."

Apple then turned her attention back to Jayden and asked. "There are thousands of games far more sophisticated than this, but why do you keep playing this game?"

Apple frowned in confusion.

"Because there's a score I need to pass." Jayden then showed the highest score of the game. There was a name written on it and he was in second place. "I don't like being in second place."

Apple grimaced when she heard that. "You are upset because there is someone else better than you playing this game?"

"Yes," he answered lightly.

If Apple didn't know Jayden well, of course she would have judged Jayden as shallow and with strange ambitions. It's just that this is a part of Jayden that not many others know about.

And actually, come to think of it, he seemed sweet and adorable to have such a simple motivation in playing the game.

"I couldn't find the right words and reactions after hearing that answer."

But, before the small talk which tended to be nonsensical could continue further, there was a commotion from the main entrance of the cafe and the two of them saw about four young men holding guns, pointing at the cashier there.

But then, the other three targeted guests who visited this restaurant.

"Is this a robbery?" Jayden asked, frowning.

"If not, what do you think this is?"

"Oh, it's my first time witnessing a robbery in person." Apple stomped on Jayden's foot and made the man wince. "What?"

"This is not the time to be amazed," Apple mumbled. She glared fiercely at Jayden, could this guy be a little more serious?

"Hey! You guys over there! Take out your money and your valuables!" one of the men cried. They were all wearing masks, so it was difficult to recognize their faces.

But based on their posture and voice, they were at least in their early twenties or late twenties.

Hearing this, Jayden put his wallet on the table, while Apple put some cash only, because that was all she brought, while the rest of her belongings were in Jayden's office.

Apple glanced at Jayden, he didn't look scared at all, he just looked bored, as if this whole robbery was a waste of time.

One of the robbers took things on the table, but when he saw Apple's face, he paused and commented lewdly at Apple.

"You look beautiful, how about you spend the night with us?"
