Jayden was so excited when they finally got to the obgyn and was even blown away when he saw the 4D view displayed on the monitor, where they could see their baby who was now only the size of a pea.
Jayden asked so many questions, which even Apple didn't think of at all and this amazed her. How could Jayden find time to read these pregnancy articles when he himself was very busy?
And when they left the obgyn, Apple couldn't help but ask it out of curiosity.
"You have worked hard to conceive our child, it'll be very unfair if I don't even educate myself about what you will experience, what will happen in the future, and how our child will develop. You're going to be in trouble in the months that follow and the only thing I can do is help ease it by finding out more about what I can do to help you."
This was Jayden's answer, he answered lightly, as if it was nothing to be proud of.
Knowing Jayden, who would sometimes brag about even the little things, even if sometimes it was just his way of joking, this answer really took Apple by surprise.
"You don't even pride yourself on learning such things," Apple said, still amazed by Jayden's unexpected response.
Jayden laughed when he heard that. "What do I have to be proud of when you are the one who has to go through all of that?" he then kissed Apple's forehead gently.
"If there is an award for the best husband, then I will beat the jury if you don't get the award." Apple ate the cake that she bought at the hospital cafeteria quietly.
Hearing what Apple said, Jayden's laughter grew louder. "You know, you've gotten a little more violent that you're pregnant now. You said you were going to beat someone up twice already today."
Ah… Jayden was right, she had said that twice today. Well, although Apple couldn't be said to have a very lady-like nature, she was also not that cross, right?
And on second thought… Apple mumbled. "Am I pregnant with a boy?" she said while stroking her flat stomach.
"I don't care if it's a boy or a girl, as long as you and our child are safe and sound, that's the most important thing." Jayden kissed Apple on both cheeks. "Thank you for giving me this happiness."
The schedule for today was getting their wedding clothes fitted, and Hailee was already waiting for them at the boutique. She had sent three pictures of wedding dresses after browsing through several options and from the three, Apple would choose for herself which one would suit her the most.
Hailee had also chosen several suits for Jayden and Misha who would be his best man later.
And since Apple didn't have many friends and the woman she thought was a close friend turned out to be a backstabber, she didn't know who would be her maid of honor, but Hailee, knowing that she was getting close to Gladys, proposed asking Jayden's cousin, to which Apple immediately agreed.

But, for now, Apple still hadn't told Gladys this decision, she would call her later.
"What are the results? Are you doing well?" Hailee asked as soon as she saw Jayden and Apple walk into the boutique. She immediately kissed Apple on both cheeks and quickly invited her in.
While Jayden only got a glance from his mother, as if to say; hm, two hands, two legs, okay, he was fine and immediately put all her attention on Apple.
"Can I see the picture?" asked Hailee, to which Apple then handed her a photo of the results of her checkup. She had already prepared it since she knew Hailee would ask for it. "Wow! Very cute!"
And it was a pretty long and a little tiring day because Apple had to change dresses three times and each time Hailee and Jayden would be anxious, asking if she was okay or if she wanted to rest for a bit.
Their attention was excessive and sometimes, Apple was also overwhelmed by it all, but she was very happy nonetheless. She was enjoying her time with the people she cared about.
However, her birth mother was out there in tears, saying that she had been treated unfairly by Apple and was disowned by her and other over-dramatized stories.
Nadia forgot the part where she had neglected her daughter and that she also left her son to Pyro recently.
However, this was not disclosed, Apple's side did not want to say anything and did not provide any comments, while Pyro's house was closely guarded. They could not approach Jayden's apartment or the Tordoff family's house because all those places were very tightly guarded.
Under security that they could not be penetrated.
It was not that Apple didn't want to straighten things out, but it still not the time for them to do that. Because right now, Apple was still busy preparing for her wedding with Jayden which would be a small party, attended only by the closest people, because Apple felt uncomfortable being in the middle of a festive party most of whom she didn't know.
Hailee didn't have a problem with that, she would comply with whatever Apple requested, giving the marriage she wanted. If Apple didn't want there to be a lot of strangers she didn't know, then Hailee would only invite her closest family. So, they would simply have around forty to fifty guests at this wedding.
That was a small number, considering that both the Tordoffs and Tatums were large families and their business colleagues alone exceeded a few hundreds.
"You are so beautiful!" Hailee exclaimed with great enthusiasm when she saw Apple walk out wearing her last dress.
Apple was wearing her white dress with flowing hair while Jayden could only stand staring at her, not saying anything.
"So? Pretty, isn't it?" Hailee asked as she nudged her son and then Jayden reacted by walking over to Apple and kissing her cheek.
"May I marry you right here, right now?" he whispered, which made Apple's cheeks turn red.
Jayden couldn't wait to call Apple his wife, he couldn't wait for those moments, because they would be his happiest moments.
"I never dreamed of getting a woman as beautiful as you as my wife," said Jayden again.

=========================
After finishing with the wedding dress selection, where Apple had chosen the last dress, Hailee invited them to eat at a nearby restaurant, where Ramon caught up with them and ate together.
Hailee also used the time to ask about a few things that Apple might want to add to the wedding theme and choose the flowers to be used.
Hailee had summed it all up and Apple just had to select from all the options that Hailee had provided, so it would make it easier for her and not confuse her.
Hailee was very helpful in this regard, as Apple was completely inexperienced and didn't know what to do with it and moreover because Hailee really liked the rush.
During the dinner, Apple thought Hailee or Ramon would bring up the gossip out there or ask about her mother doing interviews in the media saying bad things about her and her father.
And when at the end of dinner neither Hailee nor Ramon said anything, Apple couldn't help but ask Hailee, while Ramon and Jayden were out for a bit to talk about their own problems.
"If you're not comfortable discussing it, then we don't need to talk about it, it's not important to me. I've known Pyro long before he met your mother and I know him well enough to say he's not that kind of man and Jayden wouldn't be marrying you if you were the woman your mother said you were."
That was Hailee's answer when Apple asked her about her opinion over the news out there.
"Moreover, the Tordoff family is very strong, don't think that news like that will shake our family name," Hailee chuckled. "I also made a fuss when I was with Ramon back then. You don't need to react to it too much, just calm down and focus on your pregnancy, Jayden will handle this well, trust your future husband."
Apple almost cried when she heard what Hailee said, but a moment later, she told a funny story about Jayden as a child, how her son cried because he was not invited to his and Ramon's wedding.
"He cried?" asked Apple between laughs when she heard the story.
"He was four or five years old when his sister showed him our wedding photo and he burst into tears. We all laughed when he started to say the reason why he was crying."
And it was one of the few stories Hailee told Apple about Jayden's childhood, to cheer her up and not stress herself out.
Apple was so grateful to have known Hailee and to enter a family like this.
And after dinner, Apple and Jayden went straight to their apartment.
The two arrived just before midnight and Jayden allowed Apple to clean herself up first, while he still had a few things he had to deal with.
When Apple came out of the bathroom, Jayden was on the phone, discussing the case involving Theodore Gevano with Richard.
At that time, Apple was very tired and her eyes immediately glued shut as soon as her head hit the pillow. She felt her whole body ache after being outside for an entire day.
But, before Apple really fell asleep, she felt Jayden approaching her and kissing her forehead while whispering in her ear; I love you.
