It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 570 HE DOESN’T MIND

When Jayden and Apple entered the racing stadium, a young man immediately recognized Jayden and seemed to have been waiting for the two of them, after which he escorted them to a tower on the west side of the stadium.

It took about five minutes to get there and they then took the elevator to reach the fifth floor of that part of the tower.

”What number will you bet on?” Jayden asked when the two of them had entered a comfortable room in that tower. From this room, everyone who was there could see first hand all the horses that were going to race.

Apple then looked at Jayden in confusion. “No, I’m not betting.” Apple didn’t have the money to bet on a race like this, which ensured that the money needed was a number she couldn’t afford.

”Then which horse do you think is ‘cute’?” Jayden asked, changing the question, but still the purpose of the question was the same. He would bet on the horse that was pointed out by Apple.

”You’re going to bet on the horse I choose, aren’t you?” asked Apple in a low voice.

In this room were several other people, two of whom Apple recognized as Mark and his girlfriend Gabby, and were part of the Tordoff family. Gabby seemed to have a higher status than Brian, as not all the members of the Tordoff family were allowed in this room.

While Apple could see that Brian and his fiancée, Tania, were at the forefront of stadium style seating, where each row of seats was higher than the row of seats in front.

Beside Tania, Apple could see Brian, who was sitting with his arms crossed over his chest and didn’t seem to be enjoying the atmosphere that much.

There was some point where Tania’s and Apple’s eyes met and even from such a great distance, Apple could still feel hostility from her. Wow… how much hatred that girl had accumulated even though they had just met for the first time last night?

”So, what number did you pick?” Jayden entered Apple’s line of sight, blocking out her entire view of the stadium seats, as well as Tania and her fierce gaze. Apparently, Jayden did this on purpose because he noticed the way Tania was looking at his woman.

Apple then turned her attention back to the horses on the racetrack. “Number eleven,” Apple replied.

”Eleven? Okay,” said Jayden, who then made a phone call to tell the other person the number he had chosen.

”Eleven?” a woman walked up to Apple when Jayden wasn’t around. He had left to make a few more phone calls, leaving her alone for a while. “Are you sure you want the horse? It’s an old horse,” she said scornfully.

On the other hand, Apple frowned when she was casually approached by a person she didn’t recognize. She seemed to have had to get used to being approached out of the blue like this.

Because suddenly, the people around her spoke directly to her as if they knew each other, rather than ignoring her.

”I just liked the color of the horse and Jayden asked which horse I liked.” Apple shrugged her shoulders and smiled sweetly. “So I just answered the question.”

”You know how much money Jayden bet on that horse you ‘fancy’?” asked the woman sarcastically. She looked at the clothes worn by Apple and then what Jayden was wearing and it seemed that only annoyed her more, because she could clearly see that the clothes worn by Apple and Jayden were a couples’ set.

”I don’t know,” Apple answered honestly. She didn’t know how much Jayden put out or how much Jayden intended to spend gambling on this horse race, because it was his own money.

For a moment, Apple didn’t recognize the woman in front of her, who looked very cynical, but then she looked surprised when she realized who the woman in front of her was, as they had met before.

The woman in front of Apple was none other than Aunt Hellen. They met when Apple was about to enter the party area and there was a small commotion, whereupon Jayden came over and helped her.

No wonder this woman suddenly approached Apple and was very rude and tended to be full of hatred for her, even though Apple didn’t know what she had done wrong.

”He spent at least a million dollars to bet on this race,” said Aunt Hellen arrogantly. She raised her eyebrows and chin, staring at Apple as if the girl had a much lower position than her.

Aunt Hellen even waited to see how Apple would react upon hearing this and got a little annoyed when Apple didn’t show the reaction she wanted. Her smile faded and now her lips curled into one sinister line.

On the other hand, Apple didn’t even blink at all when she heard the number, although in her heart she wanted to scream; what the hell was he doing betting so much money?!

Apple would be more than happy to get the money for herself instead of pinning her hopes on the cute horses.

But, on the outside, Apple didn’t show that surprise and just shrugged nonchalantly. She didn’t want to let Aunt Hellen get the satisfaction of seeing her reaction. It was not necessary…

”Well, you might think it’s a lot of money, but Jayden doesn’t seem to think so,” Apple said calmly. Wow. She had to praise herself for having the courage to stand up for herself and looking so calm. She felt so cool right now. “Besides, Jayden said he wouldn’t mind spending the money on me.”

Aunt Hellen’s face turned red as she said. “You are a gold digger!” she accused.

However, Apple actually laughed when she responded to this. “Don’t worry, I already told Jayden that and he doesn’t mind.”
