It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 621 OPEN THE DOOR!

　　But, still, that was not a reason for Gladys to stay in a relationship like this. She could get someone much better than Derek.

　　Not a jerk who wanted to take advantage of her, especially a scumbag who had an affair with her own friend.

　　Apple seemed to have returned to the time when she was cheated on. As such, she was vehemently against it if Gladys thought she'd take that bastard back.

　　"I think you're right." But then Gladys started praising Derek with a dreamy voice. "But he's so handsome… and also understanding… he treats me well too… he likes to make breakfast for me and put me to bed… the food he makes is delicious too."

　　Apple chuckled when she saw Gladys like that. "And you're willing to be cheated on just for those reasons?"

　　Gladys pouted and shook her head. "Of course not, I feel like I want to take revenge."

　　"Then, just do that." Apple winked at her, indicating that she had a plan.

　　"But how?" Gladys asked again in a low voice, but her eyes showed that she was quite excited about whatever plan was going through Apple's head right now, because she had never before taken any kind of revenge. Hence, she was quite excited now.

　　"First…" Apple then explained the plan to Gladys and told her what to do.

　　And every time Apple said something, Gladys' eyes would glow with excitement, it went without saying that she was actually quite into the drama that was about to happen.

　　"Are you sure the reaction will be like that?" Gladys asked after she seemed done being excited about the whole plan Apple had to say, as she hesitated a bit to get started.

　　It was just that Apple was more than capable of convincing this girl back of her worth that she shouldn't forget.

　　"What if he just got lost for a little while?" asked Gladys again. She seemed to be weighing her decision.

　　"Got lost? He is a grown up man, not a five-year-old kid who makes mistakes and loses his way," Apple said even more firmly now, then said a few things that could boost her confidence.

　　========================= 

　　Derek felt something strange with Gladys because since this morning she had not picked up her phone or replied to any messages from him, even when she left this morning, she did not say anything.

　　Derek was still sleeping when she left. If he thought back again, Gladys left unusually early.

　　This had never happened before and Gladys was not the type of woman who could resist talking or sharing her side of things every second. There would always be events that happened to her that she loved recounting, so it was very strange that Gladys didn't call him all day.

　　Was it a special day and she was planning to surprise him or something?

　　Derek knew that Gladys was into pranks, but he couldn't remember what special day today was, because there was nothing special about today at all.

　　"What is it?" asked a girl next to him. She pulled Derek's face closer to herself to get a better look because he had been out of sorts for a long time. "What are you thinking about?" she asked again, but Derek just shook his head and didn't answer the question.

　　This made the girl beside him feel impatient who then pushed her body into a sitting position.

　　"You can't lie to me, tell me, what's wrong?" she asked in a demanding voice. She cupped Derek's face with both hands and forced the man to look at her.

　　A moment later, Derek sighed and answered the question. "Gladys doesn't pick up the phone calls, nor does she reply to my messages."

　　Hearing that answer, the girl immediately let go of Derek's face and immediately got out of the bed in all of her naked glory. She strutted into the bathroom and slammed the door loudly.

　　The sound of the door slamming made Derek flinch and furrowed his forehead.

　　He knew he wasn't just in trouble with Gladys, but with his side chick as well.

　　But, he got to placate her later, because right now he was much more worried about his relationship with Gladys as this girl's unusual attitude really worried him.

　　Therefore, instead of chasing after his girlfriend into the bathroom and no longer trying to appease her, Derek got dressed and was about to go back to the apartment. Of course the apartment belonged to Gladys, because he didn't have a place to live in this city A.

　　"Where are you going?" the girl asked, opening the bathroom door when she heard the clatter of Derek rushing out of their hotel room.

　　"I have to check on Gladys first," said Derek lightly. "We'll talk about this later."

　　Gladys knew he was with his friends and wouldn't be home in a few hours, but it wouldn't hurt if he went home early and saw that nothing had happened to the girl.

　　"Of course not," she said, the girl then walked toward the door and tried to stop Derek from leaving, still not wearing any clothes.

　　She tried to hug Derek and take off his shirt and push him toward the bed, but the guy emphatically indicated that he didn't want to do anything with this girl at all and pushed her away from him.

　　"I can't do this babe, now stay away from me for a bit," said Derek, trying to reach the door and push the girl away from him.

　　But, the girl insisted and tried to stop him again and again, until she finally got frustrated and shouted angrily at him.

　　"What's really going on?" cried the girl in annoyance. "You like her more now?!"

　　Derek then stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the woman who looked very angry at him, her eyes locked on Derek were filled with annoyance and impatience.

　　"You don't remember? It was you who asked me to approach Gladys," Derek said, reminding her. "Where do you think you can get all those luxurious things from? From your lover who is a nameless photographer? Can he afford it?" sneered Derek.

　　Hearing this, the girl's jaw tightened and she looked at Derek with disbelieving eyes because he dared to say that.

　　Derek had always done whatever she wanted all along, but hearing his outburst just now, took her by surprise.

　　Never had Derek said such a rude thing before, even though it was true.

　　"That's not money from you either! It's the Tordoff girl's money!" she cried, not wanting to give up.

　　"Yeah, that's right, it's money from her," Derek said scornfully. "Therefore, I have to make sure that my source of funds is okay."

　　After saying this, Derek exited the hotel room, leaving the girl alone, throwing a tantrum and destroying the room. Throwing around the stuff that's in there.

　　She couldn't believe that Derek would rather go to Gladys than calm her down.

　　========================= 

　　"You're friends with her?!" asked Apple wide-eyed, when Gladys showed her a photo of the woman who was supposedly Derek's mistress.

　　"You know her?" Gladys asked confusedly when she saw Apple's surprised expression. 

　　Apple immediately nodded when she heard the question. "Her name is Rachel, right?"

　　This time it was Gladys' eyes that went wide when she realized Apple got her name right. "Right. Right. How did you know that?"

　　"Her boyfriend is my friend," Apple said quickly.

　　"Boyfriend?" Gladys frowned in confusion. "As far as I know, she doesn't have a boyfriend."

　　"Doesn't have a boyfriend?" Apple then sat across from Gladys and took her hand. "How close are you two?" she asked again.

　　"Hm…" Glayds thought for a moment about this question. "Close enough, I've known her for the past two years."

　　"And how long have you and Derek been together?" asked Apple again. She knew that the world was small, where you could meet unexpected people, but this…

　　"Almost two years…" Gladys then realized what Apple was thinking and started to get shocked too. "No way… this can't be, can it?"

　　Wow… Apple couldn't find the right words to express how confused she was about the current situation.

　　Rachel, Ivan's lover, turned out to be having an affair with the boyfriend of Gladys, Jayden's cousin and the man dared to say that he didn't know Jayden at all? He didn't know the Tordoffs?

　　Apple then told Gladys all about it, about her first meeting with Derek at the bar and how he asked for her number.

　　And the more Apple told her all about it and how Rachel was behaving when she saw Jayden, clearly trying to seduce him who had a fiancée, the angrier Gladys seemed. She was seen clenching her jaw tightly and fisting her palms in anger.

　　"Oh, I feel like I want to beat up that guy! How could he have been fooling me all this time!? How could he lie right to my face like that!?" she growled angrily.

　　"Now you've finally got the right reaction," Apple muttered, for while Gladys had looked doubtful before, it was only now that she was genuinely angry that she had been lied to.

　　And just at that moment, there was a knock on the door and Derek's voice calling out Gladys' name traveled inside the apartment, asking her to open the door because she had changed her password earlier, so of course, Derek couldn't get in.

　　"Gladys, open the door, I know you're inside."
