Apple rubbed her stomach, she was hungry because she hadn't eaten anything earlier and she would have had her dinner by now if she hadn't been kidnapped like she was now.
But, too bad, she had to wait for all of this to be over until she could get her food.
Then later, Apple thought; Jayden might buy her some food, as this was usually her mealtime and he was usually very attentive toward her, so it never hurt to ask.
And that was exactly what Apple did when she heard the door open and saw Jayden walk in with Adrian in his toe into the room.
Only Jayden and Adrian entered the room, while the people that Jaydne had brought were waiting outside, while from Theodore's side, there was a man who had white hair, but judging by his face, he seemed to be in his thirties.
"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?"
Apple looked at Jayden expectantly and her eyes even shone with anticipation, which made the man feel a little guilty for forgetting that the girl hadn't had her dinner yet.
But, of course Jayden would not admit it was his fault. Well, he was a little petty at the moment, so he blurted out the first reason he could think of.
"Ah," Jayden mumbled. "I was going to buy you something, but Adrian said models don't eat dinner."
Adrian: 'I never said anything like that.'
"Is that true?" Apple then glanced at Adrian and frowned, waiting for Adrian's response to the statement.
"Yeah, I thought that models usually didn't eat dinner..." said Adrian in a low voice. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this moment.
Not only did Jayden hope Adrian to protect him from enemy attacks, but he also hoped that the bodyguard would protect himself from his fiancée's disappointment.
Jayden had literally thrown him under the bus!
"I'll buy your favorite food right after we are done with this, okay?" Jayden attempted to persuade Apple to forget about the matter for the time being.
"Okay," Apple agreed.
Meanwhile, the white haired man just now strode toward Theodore and tried to help him to wipe the blood from his neck. The wound had stopped bleeding, after all, Apple didn't stab him too deeply, but it still annoyed Theodore.
Especially when he saw how Apple and Jayden were all lovey dovey in front of him like this. He had to grit his teeth in fury at what the two of them had just done.
Seriously…
Why could they talk so casually and not even notice that they were in enemy's territory. At least they could be more serious.
Talking about dinner?!
Theodore was really annoyed when he heard this. This isn't their house, okay?! But, they seemed very comfortable in this house!
And the way Jayden walked into his study, he was treating this place like his own home.
There was no doubt that the self-confidence that radiated from the heir to the Tordoff family coupled with his strong dominant aura, sometimes made anyone feel uncomfortable, especially the people who were in a conflict with him.
"Please have a seat, Mr. Gevano, there seems to be a lot of talk that is overdue between the two of us." Jayden then comfortably sat on the couch with Apple beside him, while Adrian stood behind them, his hands shadowing the gun at his hip, because he had to act fast if the situation escalated in the worst possible direction.
Hearing this, of course, Theodore didn't really feel better. This was his house, his office space, but why was he the one being treated as a guest?!
"Joe, not now," Theodore said, holding the hand of the white-haired man beside him, who was about to reach for the gun at his waist when he saw how arrogant Jayden Tordoff was.
Joe grunted, but he did as his boss said and stood behind him, as he sat on the couch opposite Jayden and Apple.
"It's been a long time since we've seen each other, Jayden," Theodore said lightly, still holding the small towel in his hand, pressing the wound on his neck.
"I prefer you to call me Mr. Tordoff, we're not close to calling each other by first names," Jayden said lightly.
"Watch your mouth! You're talking to Mr. Gevano!" cried Joe angrily at Jayden's disrespectful attitude.
"Who is that?" Adrian cheekily replied. He didn't even show any expression when he said that, as if the name Gevano wasn't that important for him to remember.
And if it came from Adrian, who was Jayden Tordoff's personal bodyguard, of course it sounded like an insult.
Apple almost burst out laughing when she heard this and she had to cover it up with a small cough.
Well, good reply, bro. She liked it.
"Okay, everybody calm down," Theodore said to all of them. He then lowered his hand and showed Jayden the wound on his neck. "You should be careful in choosing a partner, she will be able to hurt you without you knowing."
Jayden raised his eyebrows, as if to say what he meant by that.
"You see this wound? You don't know what she can do to you later. Don't you think it's weird that you two are together when you and Apple have such vastly different backgrounds?"
Jayden scoffed when he heard this. He was fed up with people bringing up his and Apple's background whenever he talked to someone.
Jayden then reached his hand into his trousers pocket and took something out of it.
It was a coin, which he then placed on the table, smiling sweetly at Theodore.
"Buy a bandage for your wound with this. My girl is a bit too rough and only certain people can handle her." Jayden placed the coin in the center of the table, looking at Theodore provokingly. "You should be careful in choosing your enemy, she will be able to hurt you without you knowing."
