Chapter 552 GOLD DIGGER

Chapter 552 GOLD DIGGER　　Jayden was awakened again when he had the feeling that he was being watched, like someone was staring at him intently.

It was almost like repeating the same dream.

Or maybe it wasn't Jayden's fault that he felt that way, because that was what was happening. Jayden was indeed being watched, but this time, it was not Misha who was standing at the end of the bed, but his mother who was sitting in the corner of the room watching the two of them in silence.

You know, when someone who is very bubbly and cheerful, immediately doesn't say anything, watches in silence, then you will know immediately that you are in big trouble. That was the vibe that Jayden felt right now.

And it seemed that was how Jayden was feeling now. He was really in big trouble now that his mother decided against anything and just sat quietly in the corner.

"Apple… Apple…" Jayden shook Apple slowly, trying to wake the woman beside him, but the expression on his face didn't show much emotion.

Since the matter had reached this stage and his mother had seen it with her own eyes, there was no point in panicking and trying to explain himself, since whatever Jayden was going to say later would mean nothing.

It would be better to let his mother calm down and explain the matter at a later time.

On the other hand, feeling her body being shaken like that, made Apple finally come to her senses. She rubbed her face and saw Jayden pointing in a certain direction for her to look.

And how surprised Apple was when she looked in the direction Jayden was pointing and found Hailee sitting on the corner couch, staring at the two of them.

Apple almost screamed in surprise and her sleepiness disappeared instantly. She no longer felt sleepy or anything, what she felt now was a dreadful feeling because Hailee saw them in this kind of situation.

When Misha sent the photos and videos, maybe Apple still had a chance to explain that it was just a misunderstanding, but now Hailee saw it with her own eyes and this happened twice already.

Yes, Apple knew it was stupid of her to fall asleep in Jayden's arms last night without forcing him out of the room.

"Mrs. Tordoff… it's not what you think…" However, Apple immediately covered her mouth when she saw Hailee stand up from the chair and walk toward them.

"Get out," Hailee said.

Hearing that, Apple immediately got out of bed and tried to get out of the blanket wrapped around her, but then Hailee said again, this time in a softer voice.

"Not you, my dear," then she cast a fierce glare at her son. "You're out. Meet your father."

"Oh," Jayden said, then he got out of bed and took the time to kiss the top of Apple's head, as if making fun of his mother, which made Apple even more horrified. "See you in a moment," Jayden said lightly.

See you in a moment? Well, yeah, see you, if only Hailee didn't eat her alive right now.

"Mrs. Tordoff…" Apple started, she looked at Hailee's face with fear, especially when she saw the look on Hailee's face now.

However, Hailee put her finger to her lips and asked her not to say anything and waved her hand, indicating for Apple to sit down.

Apple felt herself on trial, the tension she felt made her body feel colder than usual.

She wasn't used to feeling scared, but this time, it was certain that she was afraid of Hailee, because she didn't know what to say to this woman who looked so calm, as if nothing could disturb her calm.

Apple flinched when Hailee also sat beside her and put her hand on her shoulder, then patted her back.

"Mrs. Tordoff…" Apple called out carefully. She didn't know where to start, but when she saw Hailee's softened expression, Apple felt a little confused.

"I want to ask you a question and you have to answer honestly, okay?" Hailee's voice sounded so soft and soothing, she even smiled sweetly at her.

"Yes, I'll answer that," Apple replied immediately.

"Was Jayden the one who forced you to sleep with him?" Hailee asked straight to the point, which made Apple wince and blush a little. She didn't expect Hailee to be so vulgar and on to the point with her first question.

"No, no," said Apple, waving her hands to indicate that wasn't really what was happening.

"So you did it willingly and without coercion?"

"Yeah, but…" Apple felt that there was something odd about Hailee's question, because it sounded like they had been doing something other than sleeping with each other innocently. "It's not like that actually… we didn't do anything…"

However, Apple's efforts to explain the problem did not end well, because Hailee Again waved her hand, dismissing any excuse that Apple would say. "From now on, you can call me Mom," Hailee said with a beaming face.

"What?" Apple felt that she had misheard Hailee's last words.

"I've told you several times to call me, Mom, right?" Hailee smiled very cheerfully at her and hugged Apple who looked surprised by this reaction.

Apple thought Hailee would look at her with judgmental eyes and even in the worst case scenario, she would think she had seduced her son to sleep with her. Even she was prepared for Hailee's gold digger accusations, but none of that happened. 

Unbeknownst to Apple, Hailee knew her own son better than she did, of course she wouldn't believe it until Jayden was tempted to do something she didn't want to do.

The fact that Jayden was so comfortable being with Apple and even sleeping by her side was enough for Hailee to confirm that Apple was the one that Jayden wanted.

"I can't wait to introduce you to the whole Tordoff family," Hailee said cheerfully.

Oh, damn. Apple almost forgot about that…
