Chapter 686: I WILL JUST WATCH
"But, Apple… we can't do that, Mr. Tordoff said that we shouldn't stress you out," said one of the bodyguards, who seemed to be asking for understanding from Apple.
They had been specifically instructed not to stress Apple out, although they didn't understand how they could stress a pregnant woman out when they weren't even interacting with her at all.
But, it seemed that now they understood the meaning of Adrian's words and could now see that it was a very difficult task to accomplish. Not because they were going to stress Apple out, but more so because they had to deal with this woman.
"You are actually stressing me out right now by refusing my request," she said. She then folded her hands and glared at them. "You know I am really stressed right now because I didn't hear from Jayden? I can't even sleep."
Apple then touched her forehead and massaged it gently, then winced, as if she was in pain.
"Now I have a headache because I can't sleep. I'm too worried about what will happen to the father of the child I am carrying," Apple said dramatically, then looked out the window. "Is he okay, is he really not hurt... "
Hearing this gave the two bodyguards a real headache. They sighed heavily when they saw Apple's current behavior.
"You don't have to be so dramatic," said one of them. The two had met with Apple before when she was working as a substitute bodyguard for Pyro, but there really wasn't much interaction between them, so this girl seemed to have forgotten them.
Therefore, they both knew that Apple was anything but this weak. She was just being dramatic to get what she wanted, and it was undeniable that it might work if practiced on them.
"I am worried," Apple said weakly, then rubbed her flat stomach with a furrowed brow, as if she was in pain or had a lot on her mind. "What if…"
"Okay, okay, enough..." said one of the bodyguards, he raised his hands in the air, indicating that he was giving up on persuading Apple.
They both knew that Apple wouldn't stop until she got what she wanted, and therefore, it would only be in vain trying to stop this woman.
"We got it, we got it," said the bodyguard with a heavy sigh, now they were the ones who felt frustrated because they had to face this woman.
"We will try to call one of the guys over there, okay? But, if they don't pick up, we can't do anything more," he said firmly, he looked at Apple as if he wanted to force her to agree.
But, of course it wasn't that easy to make Apple agree to something, because she didn't approve of it at all.
The woman raised her eyebrows and glared back at the two of them sharply. "Of course if your guy over there doesn't pick up the phone, you should try to contact someone else on the field."
Apple already knew what trick they were going to use later, so she didn't want the two of them to gang up on her like this.
"Why don't you call Mr. Tordoff directly? He'll explain the situation to you," one of them suggested to Apple, but the woman shook her head, refusing him emphatically.
"No," she said firmly. "If I call him now, it will only distract him, and it may even harm him."
The two of them who heard this wanted to hit their heads hard, because where did that thought come from? Wouldn't it break their friend's concentration if they called him?
On the other hand, Apple seemed to be able to understand what they were thinking and then said calmly.
"They don't need to report while talking on the phone, just put their phone in their pocket and that's enough for me to hear what's going on over there," Apple said.
Because that way, at least she could hear the commands given and the voices around the person, that way she could quite tell what was going on there.
"Oh, okay..." said the bodyguard in agreement.
This method was also quite safe for people who were called because they did not need to talk at length with Apple.
And after that, a phone call was made, while the three of them were in the car, listening to what was happening at the Port, where the shipment was to be made.
============================
Ramon arrived at the parking lot of the old building, near the harbor, where Jayden was carrying out his secret mission.
As soon as Ramon got down, Richard, a man who looked like he was in his late thirties and had a bald head, approached Ramon and gave a brief report on the current developments of the situation.
For now, it didn't look like much had changed and the delivery hadn't been done yet, but Jayden had everything set up and it didn't look like it was going to take that long, considering the other side would have to do their job very quickly too before anyone noticed this delivery.
"So, what are you going to do now?" Richard asked Ramon, he looked at Mr. Tordoff, even though he was no longer young and had long retired and now settled on a deserted island with his wife, still, no one could resist this mysterious and domineering aura emanating from him.
"We'll wait," said Ramon calmly. He then got back in the car and sat there.
He wouldn't do anything if Jayden could handle this well, therefore, he was just here to observe.
If Jayden could do this well, then Ramon wouldn't have to intervene at all and no one would even know he was there.
=======================
Jayden didn't stop grumbling as he went on this mission, which he had planned himself.
Why did it have to be in a Harbor?!
