"Are you really sure about this, Mr. Tordoff?" asked Adrian. He looked at this situation so full of tension while the atmosphere felt very heavy.
In his opinion, this was too dangerous and it almost felt like they were going on a suicide mission. It was too alarming to continue, so he couldn't help but speak up, of course, in a low voice so that no one else could hear.
At first, Adrian didn't think it was going to be this tense and now he felt like two big gangs were about to clash.
"You will walk straight into the enemy's lair." Adrian expressed his concern to Jayden. He then told the heir to the Tordoff family to think about his decision again, because he felt this was not right.
However, Jayden just lightly patted his shoulder, then straightened the clothes he was wearing.
Tonight, Jayden was wearing only a plain white shirt, the sleeves of which were rolled up to the elbows. He left his coat in the car, so it could be said that it was an informal look. He only looked like this when he was visiting his close friends.
So, in other words, Jayden didn't take this situation too seriously.
Jayden smiled when he heard that. "My girl walked into the enemy's den without hesitation, so why should I think twice about doing the same?" he said lightly. Jayden then flashed Adrian a smirk. "Why? Are you scared?"
Jayden even raised his brows, as if he was teasing him, while waiting for his answer and looked at his reaction for this.
In that instant, Adrian realized what he had just said. Damn. Jayden was right… he forgot the fact that Apple was in this house and entered the enemy's den without complaint, one could even say that this was her own plan.
At the time of weighing their options, Apple insisted that this was the best plan. Needless to say, this was the best plan they could come up with, but Jayden didn't agree because this would put Apple in danger. He didn't like the idea in the slightest.
However, it seemed that there was nothing to worry about because Apple said lightly.
'You insult my intelligence if you doubt me on this mission.'
That was what Apple said to convince Jayden to go ahead with the plan she had come up with and it left the Tordoff heir speechless.
And so, here they were. So far, their plan had been successful and there had been no major problems.
Adrian would even hail this plan a genius one if they made it out of this place alive.
Really, this was a challenge in itself for Adrian. That girl who looked like someone very laid back, could plan something like this and turned out to be much more daring than he was.
"Ask him where my fiancée is," Jayden said to Adrian when he saw one of Theodore's men manning the spacious living room.
Adrian grimaced when he heard how Jayden emphasized the words 'My fiancee'. He didn't need to flaunt around and say that Apple was his fiancée everywhere, right?
But, of course Adrian kept that thought to himself and then ordered one of Theodore's men to show him where Theodore was.
At first, they didn't agree to do so, until a phone call made them do as Jayden asked. Even Jayden could hear Theodore's voice so loud as he snapped at the man harshly.
"Ugh, he sounds so fierce," Jayden commented when he heard how harshly Theodore was yelling at his men. "I wouldn't yell at my men like that." Jayden scowled.
Meanwhile, walking beside Jayden, the corners of Adrian's lips twitched. Yes, Jayden wouldn't do anything like that, but he would either fire the person outright or if something his subordinates did put his life at risk, such as selling personal information from the company and betraying him, then it was certain that that person would no longer exist.
"You're much scarier, Mr. Tordoff," Adrian said quietly, as they walked down the corridor, with the young man walking in front of them, showing the way, while there were about twenty armed men following Jaydan and Adrian as well as about twenty more from Theodore's side following them.
Of course they all wielded lethal weapons and were the best in their fields.
"How could that be?" Jayden protested, turning his head and looking at Adrian with a furrowed brow. He didn't agree with him at all. "I am the best boss."
Adrian sighed, as if he was tired of arguing with Jayden on this matter.
"You know, Adrian. I think Misha needs your help, maybe I can lend you to him for a few months," said Jayden lightly. He even walked leisurely down this corridor, as if he was an invited guest, looking around.
"No, I'm more needed by you, Mr. Tordoff. You're the best boss I've ever had." Immediately, Adrian turned into a cheerleader and smiled sweetly at Jayden.
There was no way he could bear to work for Misha. The man was very unpredictable and rarely spoke, Adrian would fall into depression if he were to work under such a man.
"Good. That's what I thought." Jayden patted his shoulder. "I will tell Misha that you are not available."
Adrian smiled, but it looked like it was forced, but Jayden didn't really care.
And when they had reached Theodore's study, the young man knocked on the door and opened it instantly when a voice came from inside.
There, Jayden could see that Apple was sitting on the sofa while Theodore was standing looking at his fiancée with a very fierce look.
"Ah, you're finally here." Apple immediately stood up and ran into Jayden's arms and hugged him tightly. "I'm hungry. Did you buy me food?"
"Ah," Jayden mumbled. "I was going to buy you something, but Adrian said models don't eat dinner."
