Chapter 502 WHAT’S WRONG

Chapter 502 WHAT'S WRONG

"You want to eat here?" Pyro asked when he saw Jayden coming in with his daughter.

The middle aged man could only sigh in resignation when he saw how stubborn the son of the Tordoff family was, how could he not? Pyro was even tired of telling him to stop chasing Apple because the two of them simply weren't compatible with each other.

Be it in their natures or in their family backgrounds, but apparently, Jayden didn't heed any of that.

And almost as he always did when he had taken a liking to something, he would keep going after it until he got it.

At this point, Pyro only hoped that Jayden had the same loyalty as Ramon to Hailee.

Apple, who heard the offer, immediately answered her father loudly. "Of course not!"

However, Jayden seemed to have other thoughts, "Absolutely!"

Apple glared fiercely at the man beside her, but Jayden just walked away and headed into the kitchen while rubbing his head casually and glancing at her, which Apple took as a challenge.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Jayden asked.

"Can you really cook?" Apple asked curtly, she couldn't help but follow Jayden into the kitchen and watch the man roll up his sleeves.

"Of course," he answered proudly. "My mother is a very good cook."

"But that doesn't mean you are one," Apple grumbled.

"Let's prove it," Jayden replied lightly, then walked over to the fridge and took out the ingredients he needed.

Jayden's movements were very relaxed, exuding a no-nonsense attitude, as if he was perfectly comfortable with Pyro and Apple, like this was his own home.

"I'm about to finish making dinner, we can eat right away after the meat is cooked," Pyro reminded Jayden because the man took the main ingredients out of the fridge instead.

"I'm going to make one dish that my mother loves to make, Apple has to taste it," Jayden muttered as he continued to pull the ingredients out of the fridge.

Apple scowled at that. "Do you realize that you are only a guest in this house?"

Hearing that, Jayden stopped taking things out of the fridge and turned his head, staring at Apple with a hurt face.

"What?" Apple asked, not feeling like she had said something that might offend Jayden.

"I thought we were family..." Jayden said warily. "Your father always said that we were family…"

After that, Jayden resumed his activities while whistling.

Family your ass!

Apple regretted having felt bad about offending him earlier. She should have said much sharper words.

======================

"Not good," Apple grumbled as she pushed her empty plate away.

"No need to lie, if it's not delicious, you can't finish it all," Jayden said, smiling at the shrimp dish he had cooked that Apple had shamelessly devoured.

"That's because I don't want you to feel bad," Apple muttered as she walked away from the table and cleared the empty plates.

"Oh yes? But, you seem to enjoy my cooking," Jayden said, continuing to tease Apple.

Meanwhile, the girl just stuck her tongue out at him and walked away from there.

"Stop teasing her," Pyro warned Jayden as he took a sip of his drink. "What brought you here?" he asked curiously.

Instantly, Jayden's mischievous face changed and he became serious in the matter of a few seconds.

"I want to talk about the matter with the Gevano family," Jayden said, his tone darker than before, his eyes sharp as he looked back at Pyro.

"Let's talk about this in my study," Pyro said, but then he remembered something. "What happened to your hand?"

Pyro had wanted to ask Jayden this all along when he asked Apple to help him cut the ingredients he was going to cook.

"What? This?" Jayden asked, holding up his bandaged hand.

"What's with that hand of yours?" Pyro asked curiously again, then he looked back at the mischievous smile on Jayden's lips as he answered his question with a chuckle.

"This is your daughter's doing," he answered simply, then walked first to Pyro's study, leaving the middle-aged man alone in his confusion.

=========================

Apple woke up when she felt someone come into her room and sit beside her bed. At first, she thought that it was her father, but somehow she felt something different and firmly believed that the man who was currently staring at her intensely was not her father.

Therefore, with her mind still drowsy, Apple tried to open her eyes and how surprised she was when she found Jayden sitting beside her bed.

"What are you doing here?!" Apple cried in a muffled voice. She widened her eyes in disbelief.

Last night, because Jayden and Pyro were talking about an issue late into the night, Apple went into the room first and went to bed.

So, she didn't know if Jayden was still in this house or had gone home, but seeing the man in her room now, she was sure that Jayden had taken the opportunity to stay at her house.

Come to think of it, Jayden seemed to be staying at her house a lot recently, even though he had dozens of apartments that he could live in.

After all, the Tordoff residence wasn't too far from here either.

"Hey! Get out now!" Apple cried in a muffled voice, because she didn't want to make any unnecessary fuss.

However, Jayden didn't seem to have heard her words, therefore, Apple approached him and nudged him shoulder.

"Hey, can you hear me?" she asked with a curious face seeing Jayden's attitude like this. "Hello?" She then waved her hand in front of Jayden's face and it was only then that she realized that this man was still asleep.

He seemed to be sleepwalking.

"You freak," Apple grumbled. "You're troublesome, you know that?"

Then, without a second thought, Apple got out of bed and grabbed Jayden's hand to lead him out of her room.

Only, when Apple opened the door to her room, she came face to face with her father who had just walked out of the kitchen.
