It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 687: ON MISSION

But, it seemed he was overestimating himself. Ugh. This was very annoying and then again…     

Why did it have to be in a Harbor?!     

He couldn't understand why Theodore Gevano didn't use other means after he had been caught using the Port as his transaction medium in carrying out his sleazy activities before. Why was he using the same medium again anyway? The man really wasn't creative at all in thinking about the plan.     

Jayden had apparently underestimated his trauma to this place. Back then, when he was kidnapped, he was brought here and now, here he was again, still having the same fears he had faced almost twelve years ago.     

Damn.     

Jayden really didn't like this side of him and it really frustrated him.     

Jayden then shook his head vigorously and tried to focus on what he was going to do now.     

"Are you okay?" asked Adrian in a worried voice as he drew closer to Jayden. They were hiding behind a large cargo hold, while observing the specifics of the cargo not far from the two of them.     

And that cargo was what they were going for now. They could see there were several chests stuffed inside.     

Of course, they could imagine what was in those chests.     

"Yeah, I am fine," Jayden said. He sighed in annoyance. "Looks like the sea breeze is not good for me," he grumbled, while massaging his throbbing head.     

On the other hand, Adrian didn't understand why Jayden had joined this mission. Not many people know about Mr. Tordoff's trauma centering the harbor, but at least Adrian was one of the few people who knew about it, so he was feeling really worried right now.     

"Mr. Tordoff, you can step back from this situation, we can sort it out well, without you being here," Adrian said understandingly, he didn't want Jayden to suddenly fall ill or something bad happening to him.     

Only, Jayden couldn't see his intentions. He instead looked at Adrian with a frown.     

"What do you mean by saying something like that to me?" he said glumly, he looked at Adrian in annoyance and hissed. "You don't like me here? You don't want me to be here with you?"     

Hearing this, Adrian felt like he wanted to facepalm himself. How could he think so, when he was only thinking about his current state?     

"It is not like that, Mr. Tordoff, you should know you can't be here, right? You know exactly how you feel now, don't you?" said Adrian in a low voice.     

Mr. Tordoff shouldn't need to be here because he didn't need to intervene directly, but knowing Jayden's nature, of course that wouldn't happen.     

This mission had been his obsession for years and had become a part of him, therefore, whatever Adrian said now, it didn't seem to have any effect on Jayden at all.     

'No, I am here, I have to see firsthand what would happen next,' Jayden said firmly.     

For now, the two of them disguised themselves as officers from the Port and were now walking, patrolling the large cargoes around the Port.     

With an appearance like this, naturally no one would be suspicious of the two of them.     

"What do you think has allowed the Gevano family to have such great influence now?" asked Adrian, while they waited for the right time to strike. "As far as I know, the Gevano family is not one of the strong families, they tend to be average when compared to the families from City A."     

But, how could a business like this run for decades and even after Jayden Tordoff himself intervened, only recently did they find out that the person behind all this was Theodore Gevano?     

Wouldn't it be a great achievement for the people of the Gevano family to be able to face the Tordoffs and be a scourge for so many years?         

"That's because of Theodore Gevano's second marriage," Jayden replied lightly. He had been investigating this ever since he learned that Theodore Gevano was the one behind his kidnapping from twelve years ago.     

After marrying Aileen Tatum, his mother's half- sister, Theodore Gevano divorced her and got remarried to a woman from a fairly influential family and it seemed that he got the wealth and popularity of the woman's family.     

Not to mention that the efforts they were putting in together could be said to be successful and generated sufficient coffers of money.     

Unexpectedly, all the capital came from this activity…     

Jayden stared at the crates being loaded into the cargo hold with a very sharp look in his eyes. He looked very angry when he witnessed all this.     

"Ah… that kind of family is really complicated…" said Adrian, responding to Jayden's words, he then looked around and realized that there was something strange and it seemed that Jayden was aware of it too.     

"Someone is coming," Jayden muttered, the two of them walking past the cargo that was about to be loaded onto the ship, when two large freighters pulled up near them.     

But, unable to give away their disguises now, the two continued walking past the trucks.     

However, out of the corner of his eye, Jayden could see that someone was getting out of the truck and this of course surprised Jayden because he didn't expect to see the man at all.     

It was the first child of Theodore Gevano, who was also Alina's ex-husband. The last time they met was at a party he and Apple attended and stole their company's data.     

Jayden really had to control himself very well, because every time he saw that man, he felt like slapping him mercilessly.     

Well, he would be able to do just that later when all of this was over.     

He would make sure that was the first thing that he did.
