Chapter 559 MINE

Chapter 559 MINE　　The first dance is usually performed by the head of the family, who is the dominant figure in the Tordoff family.

In previous years, the first dance would be performed by Ramon and Hailee. Sometimes by Lexus and Candice, if Ramon and Hailee decided not to attend this kind of event.

However, by letting Jayden do the first dance this year meant that Ramon had really stepped down from his position and put his full trust in his son.

Therefore, this first dance was very important, however, Apple didn't know the deep meaning of tonight's first dance.

She just thought that she couldn't dance and that was a major problem for her.

She would never have imagined that this first dance was a moment for Jayden to introduce to the entire Tordoff family that the woman in his arms would be the first lady of the Tordoff family in the future.

And that is a very important thing.

It was also one of the reasons why many people paid attention to Apple. They made a bet among themselves whether Jayden would pull Apple as his dance partner in tonight's party, because that would mean his decision to be in a relationship with this girl was very serious.

And if it wasn't Apple that Jayden was dancing with, then of course their relationship wasn't that serious. Wouldn't it be natural to play around first? Especially when Jayden is very young, much younger than when Ramon announced his serious relationship with Hailee.

Despite the fact that Jayden came to this party with Apple, they were still skeptical about their relationship.

"Will you honor me by having a dance with me?" Jayden repeated his question, when he saw Apple didn't say anything and just kept quiet, looking flabbergasted and a little confused.

"I can't dance," Apple answered hesitantly.

Then, Jayden walked to Apple and bowed before the girl. "No problem, just follow me," he said slowly.

But, before Apple could deny his proposal to dance, suddenly the spotlight was on her, taking her by surprise and instantly all attention was on her and Jayden.

"Jayden, what is this?" Apple whispered frantically. She had managed not to be the center of attention and tried to be lowkey during the party all night, but now in an instant there were hundreds of pairs of eyes there, staring at her.

In that short period of time, Apple felt the self-awareness she had developed from nowhere sharply and this made all the blood in her body run cold.

But, among the crowd of people staring at her, she found the face of Hailee, who was standing next to Ramon Tordoff, nodding slowly, as if giving her the encouragement she needed and in front of her was Jayden Tordoff, holding out his hand, still waiting for her to dance with him.

Well, fuck everything.

Apple took a deep breath and accepted Jayden's outstretched hand, whose smile instantly turned so blinding.

Jayden then grabbed Apple's hand, helped her up and kissed the back of her hand.

Apple felt a jolt of electricity from the touch of his lips on the back of her hand which then spread throughout her entire body.

"I thought you wouldn't accept my request," Jayden whispered as he led Apple to the dance floor under the hundreds of pairs of eyes that were still trained on them. The spotlight just followed the two of them.

"What would have you done if I hadn't accepted your request?" Apple whispered back to him.

"Well, I was thinking of carrying you to the dance floor," Jayden mumbled as if he was really considering the option.

"You won't dare," Apple growled warningly and this made Jayden chuckle, but as soon as they got to the dance floor, Jayden's expression immediately changed.

He looked softer and the look in his eyes was the only thing that could make Apple ignore the people around her.

The look in his eyes hypnotized her and Apple no longer cared what other people thought, because right now, only Jayden was in her eyes.

"I don't know what to do," Apple said honestly. She didn't know where to go and where to put her hands.

"Just follow my cue," Jayden replied, he chuckled lightly when he saw how Apple was staring at him, but this time he didn't tease the girl and let her stare as long as she wanted.

Jayden then put Apple's hand around his neck and clasped her other hand, as he placed his hand on the girl's slender waist.

"Did I tell you how beautiful you look tonight?" Jayden asked which made the girl in front of him beam.

Meanwhile, behind them, the sound of music that is so soft and soothing, accompanied their steps on the dance floor.

All of this seemed surreal, like a dream and Apple didn't want to wake up from a dream like this.

"You've said it before," Apple replied. "But I don't mind hearing it again." Apple smirked as she said that.

She had never been so happy as she was now. Damn. Was she really in love with Jayden Tordoff now? Why does this man look so handsome? It was as if he was the most handsome man she had ever seen and she didn't even want to waste a second by looking away from him.

"You are greedy," Jayden whispered into her ear, his warm breath brushing against Apple's ear and this made her shudder softly and bit her lower lip. "But, what can I do, you are beautiful, you deserve to hear it over and over again, as much as you want."

Then, Jayden let go of his grip on Apple and made her spin once and caught her again, this time, Apple wrapped her arms around Jayden's neck and the man put his arms around her waist, hugging her in front of the whole Tordoff family.

"You're beautiful and you're mine," Jayden said firmly. He was serious when he said that as he bent down to kiss Apple's sweet lips.
