Chapter 665 CALAMARY

  "Just make sure he's still breathing when I get there, okay?" Jayden told Apple over the phone, checking the last document he had to sign.

  Well, he didn't want his cousin to die of a broken heart. It didn't reflect himself at all…

  Hearing that, Apple chuckled and replied with very dramatic words. "I'll try, even though it looks like he's almost dead right now… you have to come back soon, otherwise we'll be in trouble here."

  Jayden laughed softly when he heard that. "I'll take care of this as soon as possible, wait for me there, okay?"

  "Hm," Apple mumbled.

  "I'll hang up first, I'll be there in about an hour," Jayden said in a low voice, but then Apple stopped him. "What is it?"

  "Could you please stop by the cafe near my house on your way back here?" asked Apple hesitantly.

  "Hmm? Café? Is there anything you want?" Jayden asked curiously. He stopped what he was doing and listened to Apple more attentively.

  Since Apple didn't usually ask him for something as she usually got it herself, he wanted to listen better when she wanted something, because this didn't happen every day.

  "Yeah, I want calamari," Apple said.

  "Calamari?" Jayden asked confusedly. Usually, Apple didn't eat that stuff. "There is a calamari outlet near here. Do you want me to just buy it from there?'' What Jayden meant by the restaurant near his office was a five-star restaurant, the taste of which was unquestionable.

  Apple thought about it for a moment, but then she shook her head. "No, I want calamari from that cafe only. I went there this morning and their calamari was delicious."

  "Hmm?" Jayden frowned. How nice was that? He was curious. But, since that was what Apple wants, then he wouldn't question it anymore. "Okay, I'll buy it for you later on the way home."

  "Okay, hurry home," said Apple.

  Even though Jayden couldn't see it, he could imagine the smile on the girl's lips when he heard Apple's cheerful voice. Never mind calamari, Jaydena would buy anything for Apple if it made her happy.

  "You want me to hurry home because you want to see me or to enjoy the calamari right away?" Jayden teased which made Apple laugh.

  "I want you to come home soon so you can deal with Misha, because he is emitting a very gloomy aura right now, somehow I feel the lights in my living room are getting darker than usual…" Apple said dramatically.

  "So in other words, you are saying that he made your living room gloomy?" Jayden asked in a low voice, holding back a laugh.

  "Yeah, kind of..." Apple glanced back at Misha who still didn't move from his place. He just stared at the television, although Apple was sure that if she changed the television show to flinstone he wouldn't mind.

  This man was even more difficult if he really didn't do or say anything…

  What exactly happened between him and that mysterious woman? It seemed like a very serious matter.

  =======================     

  Jayden bought the calamari that Apple wanted. He bought three servings at a time because it seemed like Apple really wanted this food.

  He looked quite happy because he would soon meet his fiancée, but when he opened the door, he realized that what Apple said was true after all. The gloomy aura emitting from Misha was really strong and this made Jayden frown as he couldn't stand this gloomy feeling.

  Ugh!

  What was really wrong with this very capable cousin of his? How could he fall into the abyss of depression to this extent because of a woman? Wasn't he always the one who pushed women into depression like this?

  People would think that Jayden was the playboy between the two of them, because of his playful attitude and often flirting nature when he talked, of course he did that when he wasn't with Apple, but actually, Misha was like that.

  His cold and very serious demeanor completely fooled everyone around them and what was even more annoying was that no one would believe Jayden when he said Misha was that kind of guy...

  But now, was karma biting his ass after all the bad things he had done to those poor ladies?

  "Misha, don't you realize that you made the whole house gloomy?" Jayden asked, and put the bag containing the three servings of calamari he bought at the cafe pointed out by Apple on the table, then sat down next to Misha. "What's wrong my cousin?" he asked in a tired voice.

  Damn. He didn't know that Misha had so much work to do, now he had to respect his cousin more and make him happy, so he wouldn't have to spend more days like this.

  "Hey?" Jayden elbowed Misha lightly, but he didn't say anything. His gaze was still focused on the television in front of him.

  And from inside the room, Apple came out and sat with them, opening a box of calamari. She didn't say anything and just ate it quietly.

  She also opened the other two boxes, just in case Jayden and Misha wanted them.

  "Would you like a drink?" Jayden asked. "I'll get you a drink, I asked Adrian to bring you the drink you like this morning."

  "The drink's in the fridge, behind the blue box," Apple said, guiding Jayden.

  "Okay, I'll get it for us to drink together," Jayden said, then stood up and walked to the kitchen to get the drink, while Apple approached Misha and stuffed a piece of calamari into his mouth.

  Out of instinct, Misha opened his mouth and ate it, but then he glared at Apple.

  "How is it? It's delicious, isn't it?" asked Apple with an innocent face, as if she hadn't done anything wrong.

  There was nothing wrong with what she thought she did.

  Not long after, Jayden returned with the bottle in his hand.
