Apple and Jayden arrived at the Harbor and both immediately found Misha, who had been there and was talking to two men, it seemed he was instructing something to the man.
Meanwhile, between them, there was a small table, which had a rifle on it. Apple had never seen that model of rifle and as someone who lived with Pyro she was naturally used to guns like this.
Misha only glanced at Jayden and Apple who came up to him and let them come closer while he was still talking to the two men in front of him.
"What's this?" asked Apple curiously as she looked at the gun on the table that was about arm-length.
"Don't touch," Misha said quietly and sounded a little sarcastic, which made Apple roll her eyes displeased with the intonation of his voice.
Therefore, Apple instead touched the barrel of the rifle with her index finger, while looking at Misha provokingly, while Jayden, who was standing behind his fiancée could only facepalm himself, because he didn't know what to say.
Well, it started again. Every time they met, of course the two of them didn't get along like this.
"Don't touch it, that gun isn't for women," Misha said again in a more cynical tone now, but Apple didn't listen. She was holding the gun now and this made Misha glare at her.
"I just found out that guns have gender," Apple said unhappily.
But, in return, Misha took a gun from one of the two men in front of him and shoved the gun into Apple's hands.
"Here, a woman's gun," he said lightly.
Apple looked down and looked at the gun that was placed in her hand by Misha, it was a Glock forty three caliber and of course in terms of size it looked fit for 'women'.
"Now, play somewhere else," Misha said lightly to her, waving his hand lightly, as if he had just given a toy to a small child and told her to leave.
Apple was not pleased and then pointed the gun in her hand at Misha and this made the two men there hold their breath in surprise at Apple's dangerous move.
While Misha didn't even flinch at all. He returned Apple's fierce glare without even batting an eye whatsoever.
"You're going to let your girlfriend do this to me?" Misha asked Jayden, but his eyes were still on Apple. He didn't even look scared and seemed to be more calm than everyone else here.
"Well, you shouldn't make her angry in the first place, cousin," Jayden answered lightly and picked up the gun on the table that Misha had forbidden Apple to touch and inspected the weapon more closely. This was the new weapon they ordered.
Jayden didn't seem too serious about the quarrel between the two of them.
On the other hand, hearing that Jayden didn't want anything to do with this matter, Misha then spoke directly to Apple, who still didn't lower the gun in her hand and was still pointing it at Misha's face.
"You think I'll give you a loaded gun?" Misha asked, with a mocking smile on the corner of his lips, as he gently pushed the gun away from his face.
Hearing this certainly made Apple hiss in annoyance, she then checked the bullets in the gun and found that the gun was actually loaded.
Misha lied to her. He fooled her.
"You!" Apple growled in annoyance.
However, Misha just chuckled, not taking her seriously. He then said quietly in a patronizing tone. "You're decades too early to threaten me, sweety."
"Don't use endearments to her," Jayden said to Misha, his voice firm, because he didn't like anyone calling Apple like that but him.
Misha just shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "Why is she here?" Misha grumbled at Jayden, he pointed at Apple's nose and with his tall body, Misha was almost the same height as Jayden, Apple looked like a child being scolded.
Apple then brushed Misha's hand away from her face and glared at him. She no longer had the gun pointed at Misha's face even though she knew it was loaded.
"Because she's in on this too," Jayden replied casually, but he pulled Apple closer to him so he could keep them both away. The two of them were like Tom and Jerry and for a moment, this seemed funny to Jayden.
Well, except if they both really wanted to kill each other, then it would be a different story.
Misha looked at Jayden. "You're going to involve her in the operation later?" he asked.
"Yes," Jayden replied curtly. "She insisted on coming."
At first, Apple thought Misha would object to her existence and she was ready to argue, but the man didn't say anything, which could mean he didn't mind at all.
After all, their last operation was a success and that was thanks to Apple too. Tagging her along to this operation was not really unideal. She wouldn't be a bother at all and could be said to be a great help.
And right at that moment, Apple's cell phone rang indicating an incoming call from Gladys.
She then showed Jayden her cell phone and walked away to pick up the call, leaving the two cousins ??to discuss their plans further.
"You're really going to marry her?" Misha asked because he saw the ring on Apple's finger, which was Hailee's ring before.
"Yes, I will marry her," Jayden answered without any doubt in his voice. He then raised his head and looked at Misha when the man suddenly became quiet. "Why?"
Misha then waved his hand to dismiss the two men who were there, telling them to leave.
The two men then took the new weapons that were shown and left the two of them, providing privacy.
"What is it?" Jayden asked again because he felt there was something odd about the way Misha was looking at him now. He looked a little defensive because he thought that Misha didn't approve of the relationship between him and Apple and he was prepared to tell him off if that was what he was going to say.
Only, what he was going to ask next made Jayden raise his eyebrows suspiciously.
"How did you propose to her?" Misha asked in a low voice, he even looked a little… nervous?
Jayden had never seen Misha out of sorts like this, as if he was uncomfortable with the topic of their conversation, but forced himself to ask further.
This was weird…
Although the changes were not obvious, Jayden was very sensitive and he had known Misha since he was wearing pampers, therefore it was very easy for him to know if there was something wrong with his cousin.
"What is it?" Jayden asked probingly, which made Misha avert his eyes from Jayden. Things he didn't even do when he killed someone. "Is there something I should know?"
Misha glared at Jayden and growled at him in annoyance, because he caught his awkwardness.
"Forget it," Misha grumbled as he waved his hand and prepared to walk away from nosy Jayden.
However, Jayden couldn't possibly miss the chance to prank his cousin. He moved closer to Misha and started acting annoyingly.
"Tell me, which girl are you going to propose to? That red-haired girl? The one you brought to the family party? Who's she? Should I find out myself if you don't want to tell me?"
"Shut up!" Misha grumbled as he tried to get away from Jayden. He regretted his impulsive question.
Misha shouldn't have asked such a thing.
=========================
Derek cursed under his breath when his cards got declined many times, which meant Gladys had blocked all the cards he was given and emptied their joint account.
Which meant, Derek didn't have any money at the moment, while all he had right now was the spare cash in his wallet, but that would only last him two days and wouldn't bring him anywhere.
Not only that, Gladys even canceled his plane ticket, which was supposed to be scheduled to fly to M city tomorrow, so that Derek could meet his parents.
And right now, Derek didn't have enough money to buy tickets in such a near future, because it was predictable how expensive the tickets would be.
"Damn it!" Derek smacked his hand against the steering wheel before he got out of his car and slammed the door hard.
An hour ago Derek got a message from Gladys that she had packed all his clothes and belongings and put them on the doorstep of her apartment and asked him to take all of them before the cleaners threw them in the trash.
"Damn it! Damn it!" Derek kept cursing the whole way he headed to Gladys' apartment for the second time tonight and once there, he opened his cell phone and was about to call Gladys, coaxing her to talk to him.
However, there was one thing that made Derek open his eyes wide in disbelief. He had been blocked by some of his friends, who were friends of Gladys, and even removed from their chat group.
Of course they only thought of him as a friend because he was Gladys' boyfriend, but other than that, he was a total nobody with an ordinary background to the upper class families like Gladys' friends.
Which meant, all the connections and relationships that Derek had built so far with people from such prominent families ended in vain.
Because in the end, who would want to have a dispute with someone from the Tordoff family?
