"You shouldn't be here if the trauma is still bothering you." It was very unusual for Ramon to say this, but this time, he was quite proud of his son and this was one way of showing it by not saying it outright.
"Would you let trauma get in your way if you were me?" Jayden asked, grinning, since he knew that his father would do the same reckless thing like he had done.
Of course, the answer was no and this made Ramon smile. "Now get out of my car."
"Hmm?" The smile on Jayden's lips instantly disappeared when he heard what his father said. "What?"
"Get out of my car right now, I have to get home before your mom blows up my phone, asking where I have been all night," said Ramon, who was met with a look of disbelief from Jayden.
"Did I just get kicked out of my own father's car?" he asked dramatically and this made Ramon lean over and open the door beside Jayden, asking his son to get down even more directly.
"How can you kick your own son out?" Jayden asked in disbelief, but knowing he couldn't change his father's decision, he asked his father as a last resort. "Can't you drop me first at Apple's house?"
"No, you have your own car," said Ramon firmly and folded his arms, as if waiting for Jayden to get out of his car.
"Oh, my gosh! You are so petty!" Jayden grumbled, then with a grunt, he stepped out of the car and walked away, but he turned around to throw his father a dagger look.
His dad was really getting really petty now.
But, before Ramon closed the car door, he gave Jayden a gentle look, while his son was still grumbling, and then said one thing Jayden thought he'd never heard before.
"I am proud of you, son."

And after saying that one thing, Ramon then closed the car door, leaving his son still standing where he was and then asked Richard to hurry back to the Tordoff residence.
Meanwhile, Jayden was still in the same place until Ramon's car disappeared from his sight and he still didn't move until Adrian approached him and reported the aftermath of their ambush.
"What's wrong Mr. Tordoff?" Adrian finally asked when he realized that Jayden wasn't really listening. He tried to look past Jayden's gaze, but he didn't see anything interesting or anything that caught his eye.
"It's okay," said Jayden, who then shook his head with a sweet smile at Adrian, which only made the bodyguard feel wary and a little scared.
What did he mean by that smile?
"What did you report earlier?" Jayden asked with a cheerful face, which made Adrian feel even worse.
=======================
After what happened last night, in the end Jayden was able to complete the mission on a good note. And although he had to face a legal battle after this, with the evidence he had gathered which was almost entirely indisputable, Theodore would not be able to free himself from the snares of the law as he did before.
And it was certain that Erick would as well end up in prison by the time all this was over.
And after a tiring night, Jayden was finally able to go back to rest, but of course he didn't go back to one of his apartments, but instead went straight to Apple's house.
"You have dozens of apartments. Why don't you just go back to one of those, and be here instead?" asked Pyro, shaking his head when he saw Jayden with a tired face and slightly tattered clothes, walking in from the front door. He was like a zombie now and the sun was already shining quite brightly out there.
"Because Apple and my child won't be there," said Jayden, his voice sounding tired, but his face beaming when he said 'my child'.
The word sounded weird, but somehow it made his heart warmer. However, it seemed Jayden was the only one feeling that way, because Pyro could only growl in annoyance.
He couldn't say anything more now.
Because after all, his daughter had chosen Jayden Tordoff and now he would see this brat more often even when he retired.

After a brief 'conversation' between himself and Pyro, Jayden cleaned himself up and changed into more comfortable clothes before he headed to Apple's room.
Based on the report he received from Gabriel and Danny, Apple had been up all night. They both also told him about what Apple had done and that only this morning she went to sleep peacefully after eating her favorite calamari.
"You're such a naughty one," Jayden mumbled as he tapped her nose softly, before he lay down next to Apple and hugged her gently.
Subconsciously, the girl moved and snuggled into his arms, making Jayden smile and feel very comfortable.
He would not trade anything for a moment like this with this woman he had chosen.
And after that, Jayden closed his eyes. It didn't take long for Jayden to finally sleep peacefully beside his woman.
=============================
Ramon knew he would be in trouble since he came home at this hour and Hailee knew where he had gone last night.
He was ready to explain everything when he was greeted by Hailee at the door who immediately hugged and kissed him.
"You must not have eaten, let's have breakfast together, I have cooked for you," said Hailee with a sweet smile and this of course left Ramon surprised because it wasn't the kind of welcome he expected.
After Ramon sat down at the dining table and Hailee had plated his breakfast, he couldn't help but question this.
"Don't you want to know where I went last night?"
Hailee just chuckled as she answered. "Of course I know where you went last night, Richard told me all about it," she said.
