It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 470 I WILL PAY YOU TO KILL HIM



Chapter 470 I WILL PAY YOU TO KILL HIM

Something happened not long after Jerome’s four men drank their drinks. They fell to the floor, unconscious, as soon as they put their cups down.

“WHAT THE HELL?!” Jerome exclaimed, he stood up from his seat and looked at the four men that he had brought along had fallen to the floor and didn’t move again. Were they dead?

And in that instant, everything happened so fast.

Someone closed the doors and the five guests who looked like ordinary people, with two of them being women in office clothes, quickly pointed the weapons they had hidden, at Jerome and Maureen.

“You framed me!?” Jerome growled at Apple, who was sitting directly across from him, but the girl seemed just as confused as he was. Only, Jerome was too filled with anger to realize that.

Jerome quickly grabbed the gun at his waist, but then he cursed loudly when a bullet breezed past his ear and froze him, not daring to move anymore.

Meanwhile, Maureen screamed in terror and hid under the table.

On the other hand, Apple could only close her eyes and hope that things didn’t get any more complicated, because she knew who had planned this impossible thing.

Damn, she had forgotten that Jayden Tordoff could more than afford to rent this cafe for this kind of meeting and make it seem like an ordinary situation.

And Apple just told Jerome that Jayden wouldn’t set them up. She seemed to have to get to know Jayden a little more to figure out every trick he had in mind.

“I wouldn’t count this as your overtime.” Those were the first words Jayden said when he appeared and sat right next to Apple pointing his gun at Jerome.

“You tricked me! You set me up! You said this wasn’t a trick!” Jerome quipped at Apple, but then fell silent because Jayden fired another bullet at him, this time grazing the side of his neck.

“Shut up, I’m talking to her, you’re so rude to interrupt us,” Jayden grumbled, displeased that his conversation with Apple had been cut short. “Where were we?” Jayden asked Apple after he managed to silence Jerome.

Apple sighed heavily when she saw Jayden’s nonchalant attitude.

“Oh, right, overtime. I wouldn’t count this as overtime,” Jayden said, sounding very petty about it.

While Apple just waved her hand. “Whatever you say.” She then glanced at the four men who had fallen to the floor. “Did you put poison in their drinks?”

“I’m not that bad,” Jayden said with a hurt face. “I just put a sleeping pill that can put an elephant to sleep.”

“You can kill them!” Apple cried.

“Well, they’ll just be in a coma in the worst case.” He waved his gun recklessly at Jerome. “No need to worry.”

Jayden even patted Apple on the shoulder to make the girl feel much better about what he just said.

“You can kill them,” Apple still insisted on her opinion.

“Yeah, of course I can kill them,” Jayden assured Apple, but then his expression turned serious as he looked at Jerome and all his childishness disappeared in an instant. “What do you have for me?”

It was Jerome’s first time facing Jayden’s change of pace. So of course, he was shocked and speechless, but when Jayden put his gun on the table, and leaned back against the sofa, he looked much more relaxed and less intimidating.

Especially since he was no longer holding a gun.

Jerome glanced at the gun that was on the table, trying to think how fast he could reach it.

“I am talking to you,” Jayden reminded Jerome. “Apple said you have something you can offer me.”

“Is this safe for me to drink?” Apple suddenly asked, raising her drink to Jayden. “Or did you put something in here too?”

“Oh, of course not, honey,” Jayden said. “It’s safe to drink.”

Only then did Apple drink the drink. And since Jayden was here now, she could relax a bit and let this man take care of things the way he wanted.

“So? Do you know who was behind last night’s rendezvous?” Jayden asked Jerome directly.

“Yes, I know.” Jerome then turned his attention from the gun on the table to Jayden.

“So?”

“I want to make a deal with you.”

“But I don’t think you’re in a position here to make any offers to me.” Jayden glanced at the five people who still had their guns pointed at Jerome.

Jerome shook his head, he then said in a loud voice. “You can either kill me and I won’t say anything, or you can save your time figuring out who they are for a fair price.”

Jayden then glanced at Apple who was enjoying her bread while drinking her coffee. She was starving, because she had only eaten breakfast and lunch time had long passed.

“Would he rather die than not be paid?”

Apple answered with her mouth full. “He loves money.”

“I love money too.”

“He loves money more than his life.”

“Oh, that means we’re not on the same page in that regard. I love my life more.”

Apple rolled her eyes. “You guys don’t even read the same book.”

“So, what price are you offering?”

Jerome then stated the number he wanted, but it was even higher than the money Kyle and Maureen had borrowed from him along with interest.

“Hey, that’s not the amount you asked for earlier!” Apple protested.

“I didn’t say that I would ask for the same amount. And that price doesn’t include redeeming your ex-lover and best friend.” Jerome grinned triumphantly.

“What?” Jayden furrowed his brows when he heard that. “I’ll pay the price you mentioned if you kill his ex-boyfriend.”

“Jayden!” Apple cried.

“What?” Jayden asked. “I’m not going to help you to pay the ransom for your asshole lover.”

And just at that moment, Maureen came out from under the table and spoke timidly. “Help us, please.”
