Chapter 605 KEEP QUIET!
"It's okay, don't worry about it," Apple said lightly. She didn't feel that Gladys had any ill will toward her.According to Apple, it was so sweet of her to approach her and apologize in person, even though it wasn't her fault, especially since it was certain that the the women who were at the party were her friends, people who Gladys had known better than Apple.
But, she preferred to defend her instead. Maybe it was too soon to say this, but Apple seemed to be good friends with Gladys, at least she could befriend one of Jayden's cousins and that meant a lot to her.
Gladys was about to say something, but she felt something in Apple's hand that she was holding. "Hmm? What's this?" Gladys felt the ring on Apple's finger and raised her hand. "AH! This ring!" she exclaimed. Of course Gladys, as a member of the Tordoff family, knew this ring, which was also an heirloom.
And it was certain that she knew the meaning of the ring as well.
"So… you… and Jayden…" Gladys looked at Apple, then her cheerful and happy eyes shifted to Jayden.
But, on the other hand, Apple looked at her with eyes full of horror, because seeing Gladys with an expression like this, was like seeing a ticking time bomb ready to explode at any moment and it made her panic a little.
Apple didn't want Gladys to misunderstand, but it was certain that whoever saw this would misunderstand, regardless of the reason. Because it was very inconvenient for Apple to tell what really happened and again the story would sound a little ridiculous.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd two seconds later, the bomb exploded, as Gladys hugged Apple tightly and didn't stop congratulating her.
"Congratulations to both of you! CONGRATULATIONS!" she exclaimed excitedly and jumped around like a child, as if she had just gotten a new toy she had been wanting for a long time and this caught Apple a little off guard. "CONGRATULATIONS!"
Because Gladys' voice was quite loud, it caught the attention of those around them who looked at Gladys and Apple with questioning eyes, not to mention the fact that some of those people were the same people who came to the party at the swimming pool last night.
"Wait… no, actually it's not what you think… it's not what you think, you misunderstood this." Apple then glanced at Jayden, trying to ask him for help.
However, it seemed that her efforts were not at all fruitful, because Jayden was clearly not helping her, instead he was standing not far from them, folding his arms and looking at Gladys with a look of approval for the commotion she was creating now.
If he could, Jayden would probably help Gladys make the announcement. This man!
And in the end, unexpectedly, it was Derek who took the initiative to pull Gladys away from Apple and calm her down.
"Come here you little munchkin, you've made her feel uncomfortable," Derek said softly, she then pried out Gladys' arms around Apple and pulled his girl to his side.
"Oh, I am so sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable," Gladys said, feeling guilty for what she had just done, but Apple shook her head and said softly.
"It's all right," she said. She understood, but then she tried to explain again that it was a misunderstanding. "And this ring… this ring was just accidentally in my hands, so…"
Ugh! Even Apple found it odd, she couldn't find the words to make this explanation sound a little better.
"That's okay," Gladys said, waving her hand at Apple. "I understand, I will keep this a secret and won't tell anyone, okay? You take it easy. This secret is safe with me."
"But, that's not really what happened." Apple was still trying to explain, but then Jayden kissed the top of her head and said goodbye to Gladys as they were about to leave from there to head back to City A.
Gladys asked why they were leaving for home so early and then asked for Apple's phone number so they could meet up sometime for lunch or having brunch or coffee together.
Of course Apple happily agreed to this, because she felt it was important to have a good relationship with the rest of the Tordoff family, considering the only family she had was her father, while her mother had long been out of the picture from her life.
So, seeing how big the Tordoff family was at that dinner, made Apple feel the urge to have a big family like that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'll call you when I get to city A, we need to do something fun together, I'll take you shopping to my favorite place," Gladys said excitedly, her eyes sparkling with delight as she planned this.
On the other hand, the corner of Apple's lips twitched. Is this one of the things the members of the Tordoff family have in common? They really love shopping activities.
And although Hailee wasn't a direct member of the Tordoff family, she seemed to have been well exposed to this shopping ritual.
"Then, see you later," said Jayden, who then pulled Apple away from Gladys and her lover. And as parting greeting to Derek, Jayden just nodded briefly, which was returned with a dazzling smile from the man, as if he was pleased. As to why it seemed so was a mystery…
"Do you feel there is something strange about that man?" asked Apple, glancing at Derek with a furrowed brow.
"As long as he doesn't get into trouble with the Tordoffs, then he can be as weird as he wants to be," Jayden replied curtly and opened the car door for Apple. "You guys seem to be getting along well."
"Yeah, she's a cute and very cheerful girl," said Apple in a light voice. "I would love to spend time with her later."
Well, Apple hoped they could really be friends.
