It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 431 CHILDHOOD



Chapter 431 CHILDHOOD

“Are you out of your mind?” Apple really couldn’t believe what she had witnessed Jayden do earlier. This man was absolutely insane.

Yes, Apple had heard of how impulsive Jayden could be from her father, but after experiencing it firsthand and witnessing it with her own eyes, she finally understood that what her father had to say couldn’t really describe how impulsive Jayden Tordoff could be.

“You could have killed him earlier!” Apple could swear that her heart was still beating fast. What kind of trouble would she have to face if Jayden actually pulled the trigger and killed Kyle?

This man was unpredictable and dangerous, but at the same time he looked like the most harmless man you could ever come across.

How could it be that after what happened he actually showed an expression of complete innocence?

“I did intend to kill him, but since you intervened at the last moment, he’s still alive,” Jayden replied lightly and his eyes fell on Apple’s empty hands. “So after a long wait, I still didn’t get any food?”

Apple forgot about that completely. She only realized that the bag of food she was carrying had fallen earlier when Kyle hit her pretty hard. It made them unable to have dinner now.

“You are so unbelievable…” Jayden clicked his tongue and walked into the house, but then he stopped halfway and turned around. “I thought you were strong enough to work in your father’s place, but apparently you can’t even protect yourself.”

Those words pierced Apple’s heart deeply because what he said was true. Apple had let Kyle hit her and she never retaliated. What kind of stupidity was that?

However, Apple had her own reasons.

“You don’t know anything, so don’t interfere,” Apple said, slightly annoyed. She was about to walk into the house first, ahead of Jayden.

But, as she walked past the man, her hand was grabbed by him as he forced her to stop. Jayden’s grip on her wrist was so strong that Apple couldn’t shake him off.

“I don’t know why you let that guy hit you, but whatever it is, don’t let me see him again.” Jayden’s expression showed how serious he was and although he didn’t raise his voice, its low pitch conveyed that he meant every word he said. “Because if I ever see him again, I’ll make sure he won’t be able to use those hands again, even to lift a chopstick.”

Apple was stunned for a while when she heard that, especially when she saw the deep look in Jayden’s eyes. He seemed to have his own reasons why he behaved like that, or it could be said that he had experienced something unpleasant in his past that made himself act like that.

Or had this something to do with his past trauma? Apple couldn’t know for sure the answers to the questions in her head.

But, then she uttered a sentence that she didn’t really think about. “Why? You care about me now?”

And Apple really regretted those stupid words as soon as they left her lips. A smirk could be seen forming at the corners of Jayden’s lips in the next moment.

“Of course not,” Jayden said, then released his grip on Apple’s arm. “I just don’t like seeing women get beaten up. However, if you were a man, I would probably grab a stool and a bowl of popcorn and enjoy the show when you get beaten up by whoever the guy was.”

After saying this Jayden stepped into the house first, but not before telling Apple to check her face and make sure to not let Pyro see that.

Apple touched her face and could feel the stinging pain on her cheeks. Damn that bastard!

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

“You said Apple would come as a replacement for Pyro?” Misha asked Jayden when the two of them were about to attend an important meeting that required Jayden’s presence because Alina was out of town to take care of their new company.

“I don’t think she’ll come,” Jayden replied casually, he didn’t think much of the girl anymore. Apple should have reported to him to replace Pyro two days ago, but the girl didn’t come at all.

Jayden didn’t want to ask Pyro about it. He felt it was unnecessary to ask. If Apple didn’t want to work for him, then that was her decision and so be it.

“What did you do to her?” Misha asked, he looked at Jayden accusingly.

“I didn’t do anything,” Jayden retorted fiercely, but then he remembered what he nearly did and corrected his words immediately. “Maybe I did something to upset her…”

Misha rolled his eyes dramatically. “What did you do?” he asked curiously.

“I almost shot a male friend of hers in the head,” Jayden said casually. “Looks like she’s mad about it.”

Misha opened his mouth and closed it again, he seemed to be at a loss for words at the statement he had just heard from Jayden.

“You really can’t be trusted,” Misha said at last, but Jayden didn’t respond. His mind was occupied with other things.

He received information that one of the members of the organization that kidnapped him in the past would gather at a bar tonight and he was planning to visit that place.

“But why do you care so much about her?” Jayden asked. Just a casual question as they waited for their elevator to stop on the floor they were on.

Misha glanced at Jayden and answered him. “Don’t you remember?”

“Remember what?” Jayden asked. He then stepped out of the elevator first, passed through the corridor and slowed his pace.

“You two met when you were little and I took care of you both,” Misha said. He reminded Jayden of their first meeting. “You don’t remember and I don’t think Apple remembers it either.”

“Really?” Jayden asked in disbelief, he frowned and looked at Misha. “When?”

“When you were twelve and she was five,” Misha replied.
