Chapter 604 THIS RING!

Chapter 604 THIS RING!

"Wake up..." said Apple, without making any actual effort to wake Jayden because she realized that she liked watching this man sleep, as if he forgot the world around him, this was something that made Apple feel really grateful that she had this man in her life.

Apple then reached out her hand to caress Jayden's cheek, tracing her fingers on his jawline, his brows, nose and then pinching his nose softly and laughing silently, as Jayden grunted a little, but fell back asleep. Looks like he won't be awake for some time.

She didn't know what this guy had done last night, but he seemed really tired.

But just at that moment, something else caught Apple's attention, as the dim light in the room reflected off the ring she had on her ring finger.

Apple frowned as she had never seen this ring before. She wasn't sure if she knew about this ring or how it ended up on her finger.

However, that was two seconds ago, because in the next moment, she gasped loudly, when her memory returned.

Last night's incident, regarding how she kicked a large bowl brought by one of the women at a party in a white bikini, as she could guess that she had bad intentions.

Then her injured leg and how she had groped Jayden in the elevator and found this ring. Then they lost the ring and how it ended up in her hands again.

Apple remembered all the details of the incident and this left her mortified. Not only because the ring ended on her finger, but also because she knew what the meaning behind the ring was.

To say the least and after a closer look, Apple knew what the ring was and whose it was before.

Apple had seen this ring worn by Hailee Tordoff and she had said that this ring was a legacy for the Tordoff family and was also her engagement ring.

So, how this ring could be in Jayden's hands and now wrapped around her finger, was a journey that was very easy to guess.

Therefore, Apple tried to remove it from her finger, but the ring was stuck and couldn't be removed, which caused her to panic and try even harder, but still nothing happened. The ring stuck motionless on her finger.

"You don't have to do that, I have already tried and it didn't end well," Jayden said in his sleep. He still had his eyes closed and his voice sounded very deep and sleepy. "The ring is stuck on your finger."

"What?" Apple looked at Jayden's face. If he hadn't spoken, Apple would still think that this man was actually still sleeping. "You have tried taking it off?"

"I have tried to get it off all night, but to no avail," replied Jayden, who then snuggled closer toward Apple, nuzzled her neck then fell asleep again.

While Apple stared at her finger with disbelieving eyes. She really had to think of a way to get the ring off, but didn't know how to do it.

"Then what about my finger?"

"Leave it alone," Jayden said casually. "You wore the ring yourself and now the ring is stuck on your finger, it means you proposed to yourself, so you are stuck with me forever."

"What kind of conclusion is that?" Apple frowned and looked at Jayden with irritated eyes, this wasn't how things were supposed to be.

After all, how could Jayden count this unexpected thing as her agreeing to his proposal.

"Hey, if you want to propose to me, you have to do it the traditional way," Apple protested, but Jayden was already asleep. And, he was even snoring softly. It seemed what he did last night and didn't work exhausted him.

Meanwhile, Apple stared at the ring on her finger with a look on her face that was hard to explain.

Why did it always go like this, she grumbled inwardly.

She then promised not to drink too much, it seemed that she tended to do things she didn't usually do when she was under the influence of alcohol.

She wouldn't have found this ring if she hadn't groped Jayden last night...

=========================

Despite Jayden's words that he was going to leave the ring on her finger forever, he knew it wasn't healthy.

Rings that were too small would interrupt blood circulation and this would result in things they didn't want in the long run.

Of course when Jayden said all that he wasn't serious and did have plans to take Apple to the doctor to get the ring off.

And therefore, here they were now.

Jayden and Apple intend to go to the doctor in city A, because they thought it was much better to do it there, than anywhere else, especially since this island did not provide complete medical care like in city A and Jayden wanted the best for his woman.

But, before they left the hotel, Gladys approached them, still with the man named Derek in her tow.

This guy didn't look unsettling nor did he look annoying, but somehow Apple was getting a bad vibe from him, or maybe it was just her feeling.

Who knows…

"Apple…" Gladys then walked over to Apple and hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry about last night," she said apologetically. "I hope you're not angry and don't mind coming to my party next time around, I'll make sure women like that won't come to my party again."

Gladys then released her arms around Apple and clasped her hands with regretful eyes.

"It's okay, don't worry about it," Apple said lightly. She didn't feel that Gladys had any ill will toward her.

"Hmm? What's this?" Gladys felt the ring on Apple's finger and raised her hand. "AH! This ring!" she exclaimed. Of course Gladys, as a member of the Tordoff family, knew this ring, which was also an heirloom.
