Chapter 444 THE RIGHT MOTIVATION

"Hoaaam!" Apple yawned widely as she walked with Jayden to the parking lot after accompanying the man to several meetings.

Apple couldn\'t help wondering how Jayden could sit through each of those boring meetings in a sleep deprived state? Wasn\'t he sleepy while listening to that very tedious presentation?

"How can you sleep after a day of doing nothing?" Jayden criticized the girl next to him.

"Following you all day bores me," Apple said honestly. She then raised her hands and stretched her stiff muscles, then looked at the time on her watch. "Alright, my work time for today is over, I\'m going home now."

Apple was just about to step over to the other side of the parking lot when Jayden hooked his finger around her collar and made her walk backward, back to her earlier position.

"Hey!" Apple immediately dodged and tried to free herself from Jayden. "Don\'t pull my shirt!"

"Where are you going?" Jayden asked. "Get in the car." He then nodded toward his car.

"Home," Apple replied innocently. "You want to take me home?" Apple blinked, she didn\'t expect Jayden to be nice enough to drive her home.

But, it didn\'t take her that long to realize what Jayden meant was completely different from what Apple had imagined.

"No, our business isn\'t done yet, I want you to come with me somewhere," Jayden said as he walked toward his car, but instead he took a position in the seat next to the driver, indicating that he wanted Apple to drive the car.

"It\'s past my work hour," Apple complained. She groaned, folded her arms across her chest and glared at Jayden in annoyance. "You have to pay for overtime if I have to work past this hour."

"Okay," Jayden answered lightly. "Now let\'s go."

Grumbling, Apple walked over to the car, caught the keys Jayden had thrown at her and sat behind the wheel.

"Where are we going?"

"Put on your seatbelt first," Jayden told Apple.

"I didn\'t know you were so concerned about safety like this." Apple then put on her seat belt.

"Safety is always coming first, beautiful, remember that."

"Don\'t call me that." Apple felt uncomfortable with the way Jayden called her. It sounded close and familiar, while she didn\'t want to have that kind of relationship with Jayden.

This man simply spouting such endearments would only bring trouble to Apple if she fell for the Tordoff heir\'s pranks.

"Call you what? Beautiful?" Jayden raised his eyebrows, he then looked at Apple quite intensely with a smile at the corners of his lips.

"Yes."

"Then what should I call you?"

"You can just call me by my name," Apple grumbled.

"Apple."

It was just that, after Apple heard her name being called by the man, somehow the word \'beautiful\' sounded much better than when he called her by her name.

The way Jayden said her name sounded so intimate…

Or maybe it was just Apple who felt so? Whatever it was, she hoped that tonight wouldn\'t be like the night before.

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

Jayden led them to a building, some distance from downtown, where Apple could see that it was a place where Jayden\'s people congregated.

This place was like a large gym building with all kinds of exercise and weightlifting equipment in there.

Apple had just entered the place and immediately felt uncomfortable, especially when she was the only woman there.

Yes, she was the only woman out of about a hundred burly men there.

Of course, Apple felt a little scared. To fight three or four men at once, maybe Apple could still stand a chance, but more than that, she had to face the fact that it was impossible.

"If you are going to take me to your den of rogues, you\'d better give me a gun to make me feel safe," Apple said quietly, as she walked beside Jayden so only the man could hear her.

Apple did feel scared, but she didn\'t show it on her face, especially when all eyes were on her. She wouldn\'t be so stupid as to show her fear to others.

"There\'s nothing for you to worry about, they\'ll lose their hands if anyone dares to touch you." But Jayden took something from his trousers pocket and put it into Apple\'s hand. It was a pocket knife.

Apple immediately lifted her head when she sensed the coldness of the small knife against her skin, and also because she felt the aura that Jayden emitted was a little different. He no longer looked playful, but was like a boss from a dark organization.

"Where is he?" Jayden asked a man who approached them. He was big and had tattoos all over the left side of his body.

"He\'s downstairs, passed out, but I\'ll wake him up by the time you get there," the man said, then his eyes fell on Apple. "Who is this girl?"

"Pyro\'s replacement," Jayden replied curtly.

But instead, the man laughed mockingly and looked at Apple with a scornful look, making the girl frown.

"But, she is a woman, there is no way she could stab and kill a grown up man like Pyro did…"

But, before the man could finish his sentence, Apple moved swiftly and lifted the small knife Jayden had previously given her at the man.

Apple moved so fast that the man didn\'t realize what was happening, and only realized when the knife was only an inch from his eye, which startled him until he leapt back swiftly.

"I don\'t like being questioned about my abilities," Apple said coldly, then lowered her knife and looked deeply at the man. "A woman could easily kill a man with the right motivation."

There was a smirk of satisfaction at the corners of Jayden\'s lips when he saw how well Apple handled this situation and left his team gasping in shock.

As he had expected, Apple was a perfect fit for this job.
