Chapter 595 SHE IS FUNNY
??Apple never thought that she would meet that man again. What was his name? Danny? Daniel? Surely it was something that started with D…??Although Apple forgot his name, that didn't mean she forgot about the man altogether. She remembered his face quite well.
??And Jayden seemed to remember the man too, seeing his reaction now, it was certain that this man recognized him immediately.
??Meanwhile, the woman who was approaching Jayden was completely unaware that the tension in the air had become a little more pronounced, as she continued to speak.
??"I didn't expect you to be here as well," the girl said cheerfully, then her gaze fell on Apple and her eyes turned more cheerful. "Hey, I know you. You are Apple, right?"
??Then without being invited, the girl immediately pulled up the nearest chair and sat beside Apple, while her male friend sat in the chair next to Jayden. He even gave the man a sweet smile, which looked harmless.
??"We met at the party, remember? At the resort where the whole Tordoff family is gathered." The girl reminded Apple.
??However, since there were so many people and Hailee at the time introduced her to so many members of the Tordoff family, it seemed she had missed this girl, or maybe they had met before but Apple had forgotten about it because she had met so many people in a row.
??Well, she couldn't be blamed, you couldn't expect to get to know so many people in a single meeting, especially when Apple only attended the night event on day one, while for the rest of their days at the resort, she and Jayden stayed in their room to relax and recuperate.
??"She's Gladys," Jayden told Apple when he saw the woman looked confused. It was obvious she didn't remember her at all. He then briefly explained how she got the Tordoff surname behind her name before turning around and looking at the man beside him. "And you are? I'm sure we've met before."
??"Oh, I forgot to introduce him. He is my boyfriend, he just returned from studying abroad a month ago. His name is Derek William." Gladys looked proud when she explained a bit about Derek's line of work. He was a software engineer and was now trying to build his own company.
??"Your boyfriend?" Jayden raised his eyebrows at Derek and looked at him more intensely. "It must be really hard to have a long distance relationship," Jayden commented.
??Then Gladys started to share her experiences in their long distance relationship and complained about a few things.
??From this brief interaction, Apple could conclude that Gladys was the type of girl who was jovial and too open for her own good. When you asked one thing, she would tell the whole story and even ask you what you think about it in return.
??Needless to say, their lunch turned out to be a little messy and not up to the mark, but Apple found this amusing, because Gladys seemed like a friendly girl, unlike Tania. Maybe, they could become friends.
??Apple quite enjoyed Gladys' chatter that dominated the conversation, even though Jayden didn't think so, because he was a little annoyed that his dinner with Apple had been disrupted, especially with the man next to him.
??Their first meeting at the bar wasn't exactly a pleasant one, but Derek didn't do anything suspicious or outrageous to get acquainted with Apple any further, but it was annoying nonetheless.
??Even more so, when Jayden noticed an odd thing. Derek said he didn't know Jayden Tordoff or the Tordoffs, but he was dating a girl from the Tordoffs himself. What did it mean?
??There was something odd about this man.
??"So, what are you guys going to do tonight?" Gladys asked, looking expectantly at Apple and Jayden. "I have some friends coming over to a party tonight, want to join?" she asked enthusiastically, then took Apple's hand and squeezed it tightly. "Come on, it will be fun to party together. You two weren't even present at the closing ceremony of the Tordoff family gathering because of the incident."
??"Maybe next time," Jayden said to Gladys. He then stood up. "I have to go see my parents."
??Hearing that, Gladys eyes went wide. She then made an unnecessary fuss. "You're going to make your relationship more official? Will there be an engagement event? I'm really good at organizing parties, you should let me arrange your engagement party."
??Gladys seemed too enthusiastic to notice Apple's smile that looked like she was grimacing.
??"That's too soon," said Apple, then patted Gladys' hand to calm her down a bit, now that they were the center of attention. "Besides, I've met Mr. and Mrs. Tordoff before this. It's just an ordinary meeting, we are just paying them a casual visit."
??Gladys looked a little disappointed, but she didn't give up. "Give me your phone, I'll save my number on yours, if you change your mind and want to join the party tonight, call me. Okay?" she said cheerfully. "The party is definitely very lively, because I am the coordinator of the event," she said proudly.
??It took a while for Gladys to calm down a bit and let go of Apple's hand after she saved the number on her phone.
??"If you're done, we'll leave now," Jayden said, holding out his hand for Apple. He wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.
??"Oh! You two look so cute," Gladys gushed and Jayden quickened their pace which made Apple laugh once they got to their car.
??"You're such a freak," commented Apple.
??"Oh, you don't know, but she's the cousin I've always avoided," Jayden replied. He then told the driver to get out of the way, as if Gladys was going to chase them all the way to the car. "She won't stop talking if you don't get out of there soon. She could talk all day without realizing it. If I had known she was here, I would have delayed our departure," Jayden grumbled.
??Apple laughed even more at Jayden's expression. "I think she's quite cute."
