Chapter 569 GAMBLING
Chapter 569 GAMBLING
Apple had almost forgotten what happened this morning and last night when Jayden took her around in the car, circling this beautiful and expansive resort area.Apple, of course, had taken walks outdoors and even camped, but she had never seen such a beautiful sight before and she was amazed at the expanse of meadows that stretched as far as the eye could see and the trees that looked so lush, behind all of that, a mountain towering so high that its top was covered with clouds.
This was one of those scenes that you could describe as a scene that came straight out of a painting. Yes, it was all like a beautiful painting and Apple couldn’t hide her excitement and enthusiasm to explore this place.
Especially when Jayden opened the roof of the car and Apple could feel the fresh, cool breeze blowing against her face and playing with her hair. It was the most incredible feeling Apple had ever had.
If it weren’t for last night’s events, she would be even more grateful to Jayden.
”Feeling better?” Jayden asked.
”Yeah, it’s fun,” Apple answered honestly, covering her eyes from the glare of the sun shining brightly above them.
Even though the sun was shining brightly, the air in this mountain was still very cool.
”Put these on,” Jayden said, which made Apple open her eyes. She squinted because of the glare, but she could see what Jayden had given her.
They were a pair of sunglasses and from the name on the hilt, Apple discovered that they were from the recent edition of a well-known brand. In simple words, expensive stuff.
She had seen these glasses at an exhibition as they were the latest release and were advertised frequently.
”Thanks,” said Apple, who then took the glasses.
Okay, since she had a rich boyfriend, it seemed like Apple didn’t need to think too much about the price of an item because all of that would be taken care of by Jayden, especially since he was the one who gave this expensive item, knowing that Apple could be clumsy and spoil it.
”Anytime, babe,” Jayden answered lightly, then turned his attention back to the road in front of him.
Jayden himself looked very handsome in a bright yellow sweater and faded blue jeans that he was wearing, and glasses perched sweetly on his sharp nose.
But, wait…
Apple felt something was odd… but, what? She felt that there was something wrong with their appearances after a bit of contemplation.
”You make me feel awkward when you keep looking at me like that,” Jayden said, grinning at Apple who was staring at him intensely.
Apple pouted her lips because the reason she was staring at Jayden wasn’t what this man thought.
But, what was so odd about his appearance…?
”Ah!” Apple widened her eyes in surprise when she realized what was wrong with Jayden’s appearance.
No, there was nothing wrong with Jayden’s appearance. It was just that Apple realized one thing that made her eyes widen in disbelief.
They were both wearing matching clothes!
”What the hell?!” Apple cursed loudly.
”Language, please,” Jayden warned the girl beside him who wore a cute surprised expression. Well, at least Jayden thought that Apple was really cute in his eyes right now and no one else could convince him otherwise.
There was only one word that could describe how her facial expression looked now, namely; epic.
Jayden thought Apple would notice it soon enough, but it took her a while to notice that the clothes they were wearing were the same.
”You…” Apple pointed her hand at the sweater and jeans that Jayden was wearing then to herself. She seemed lost for words for a moment. Because she didn’t know how to compose sentences to explain the absurdity of what Jayden had done.
”They are couples’ clothes, you don’t know?” Jayden asked innocently. He then stopped his car in front of a dark brown building, where there were already many luxury cars parked.
Of course Apple knew what they were wearing!
These were couples’ clothes and Apple immediately noticed the resemblance between their clothes. However, the main question was; why? Why was Jayden wearing clothes like this? It was not like him at all.
Or maybe this was another part of Jayden that Apple hadn’t seen before? The ‘cute’ part of him?
”Of course I know…” Apple said quietly. She facepalmed herself and then laughed softly while shaking her head.
”Why are you laughing?” Jayden asked, feeling a little worried at Apple’s drastic change in mood. “You’re okay, right?”
”I didn’t expect you to be ‘cute’ like this,” said Apple in between her helpless laughter. She then looked at Jayden who was grinning.
”Well, ‘cute’ doesn’t seem like a bad word.” He shrugged nonchalantly and got out of the car to open the door for Apple.
”I wonder how cute you can be,” said Apple in a more cheerful voice. It seemed, there would be many more surprises from Jayden in this relationship, therefore, she had to prepare herself.
”I was thinking about getting Mickey and Minnie costumes, sounds cute, doesn’t it? Or screen printing t-shirts with the words Mr. and Mrs. Tordoff, what do you think?” Jayden took Apple’s hand to lead her to the arena.
”Don’t you dare to do that,” Apple winced. Just imagining it made her shudder. “You are so tacky.”
Jayden laughed when he heard this. “Well, I tend to be a little tacky when I’m happy.”
”So you’re happy now?” asked Apple in a mocking tone.
”Very,” Jayden answered shortly, who then kissed the top of Apple’s head and wrapped his arm around the girl’s shoulders, as the two of them walked into the arena.
”Hmm, what is this place?” asked Apple when she saw a building in front of her that looked more like a stadium.
”Racetrack,” Jayden replied.
”I thought we were going for a ride,” Apple said.
”We’ll do it this afternoon.”
”Then what are we going to do here?”
”Betting.” Jayden smirked as he answered her.
