Chapter 661 I STAYED WITH JAYDEN

??Apple couldn't stand the comments made by Nadia anymore, because the first thing she did was criticize the people around her and be very rude to them.

??Apple knew where her mother's attitude came from. Nadia must have seen the news circulating about her and Jayden, and that was also why her mother had finally come looking for her after all these years.

??"If you don't want to talk, I can go home now. Stop criticizing them. They're much better at taking care of me than you ever have," Apple said curtly.

??Apple even stood up and was about to leave. She assumed her mother had enough money to call a taxi or whatever to take her back home, so it didn't matter if she left her at this cafe she never visited at all.

??After all, it was still early and this cafe was not a remote place, there were various public transportations passing by around here.

??"Apple," Nadia called her and held her hand, asking her to sit back down. She seemed to be holding back her own emotions, but then realized that what she had done was wrong and now had a regretful expression on her face.

??Well, or at least Nadia thought she could fool Apple with her cheesy acting.

??"Okay, mom came here because I miss you," said Nadia softly. "I know that what I have done all this time is wrong and I want to apologize to you," said Nadia, holding Apple's hand.

??Seeing that this was going to be a long chat that would be full of apologies from her mother, Apple sat back down and this made Nadia smile with relief.

??It wasn't that Apple would believe her mother's words that she missed her, it couldn't be that after all this time her mother suddenly came because she missed her either. Where had she been in all the years she hadn't seen Apple? But, because Apple wanted to hear what motivated her mother to come back to her again.

??Was her guess right?

??"What exactly makes you want to apologize to me?" asked Apple, leaning back against the sofa and willing to take the time to listen to what her mother had to say.

??It was just that Apple would get out of there real soon if her mom started saying things that didn't make sense.

??"What did you do that made you want to apologize to me?" asked Apple again in a low voice. She seemed very patient in her response to her mother, though it was hard to say what was really on her mind right now.

??"Mom…" her mother started to say, but she seemed lost for words, until in the end she just repeated the same thing. "I'm sorry about what I've done to you in the past," she said.

??"What are the specifics? I want to know what you did that made you feel guilty," Apple kept asking what exactly her mother wanted to be forgiven by her.

??You can't apologize to someone when you don't know where you went wrong, can you? You can't apologize just because you want to apologize without knowing what you did wrong.

??"For what I did all those years ago," Nadia said in a slightly quivering voice, but Apple could see through her well enough to draw her own conclusions.

??And it seemed, based on the answers given by Nadia, her mother, Apple could conclude that in fact she didn't know what she did wrong and just repeated that everything she did was wrong.

??It was just that she said that when she met with Apple because she knew that was what Apple wanted to hear and it was also what allowed her to talk to Apple, to start a conversation that had been due since years ago.

??"You don't even know where you went wrong," Apple said in a tired voice. She then called a waitress to order drinks and snacks, because it was still early and she felt talking to Nadia now would make her crave extra energy.

??On the other hand, Nadia also ordered drinks and food, and as Apple expected, she ordered the most expensive servings there and acted very arrogantly, as if she was a lady boss.

??"Apple, you have no idea how I feel, for years I have felt that what I did to you was very wrong and I have wanted to apologize to you for a very long time." Nadia changed her arrogant expression when talking to the waitress to a sad expression when talking to Apple, very easily. "This feeling of guilt continues to haunt you and eat away at your heart."

??Hearing this, Apple sighed tiredly. Couldn't she have said something much more convincing than this?

??"If you do feel sorry and feel that your guilt is haunting you, how can you allow that guilt to eat away at your conscience for years?" asked Apple in a calm voice. "I lived in the same place for years and dad never moved at all or changed his address, so how come you only came now when you say your guilt nearly killed you?"

??Nadia was silent for a moment, she seemed to stutter and her lips parted and closed repeatedly. She seemed tongue tied for a while, unable to find the words she wanted to say.

??Until finally their drinks and food arrived.

??Of course, Apple could just leave her mom there and pay for the food she ordered and then leave, but of course she wouldn't pay for the food she didn't eat.

??Or at least, she would eat the food first before leaving her mother in this cafe.

??Well, it would be better if her mother continued to be at a loss for words like this so that she could eat in peace and pretend that her mother was not in front of her.

??"Mom has been to your place everyday for the last two weeks," Nadia finally said, while Apple was enjoying her calamari. "But you weren't home."

??"Yeah, I stayed at Jayden's apartment while dad's in the hospital," Apple said lightly.
