Chapter 612 THAT RING!

Chapter 612 THAT RING!

"I thought you'd propose to me after you finished playing the piano," said Apple, still staring at the ring that wrapped nicely around her finger and smiling. The soft reflection of the moonlight made the ring look even more beautiful. "What made you decide to do it in the middle of the lake?"

Apple didn't mind at all where Jayden was taking her, because she knew it was bound to happen, but she just wanted to know why this man did what he did.

"Because I have to have a plan B," Jayden replied curtly.

"Plan B?" Apple frowned and turned her attention to the man who was rowing their boat now. "What's your plan B?"

"In case you refused me, I would have left you there." Jayden nodded toward the small cottage in the middle of the lake. "And we would have stayed there until you said 'yes'."

Apple looked at Jayden with a reproachful expression on her face. "You're ruining the romantic atmosphere," she grumbled.

But then, Apple didn't seem to care much as she started staring at her ring again. She even gushed about the ring.

"Can you teach me how to play the piano?" asked Apple as Jayden was mooring their small boat by the lake.

"Of course," Jayden said, taking Apple's hand and leading them back toward the greenhouse. "What song would you like to learn?"

"That song you played earlier," Apple replied cheerfully.

"You like the piano too? We can take it home if you want."

"Doesn't the piano belong here?"

"No, it's just an ordinary garden and it's a normal greenhouse," Jayden replied lightly and then pulled Apple closer while wrapping his arm around the girl's shoulders. "I bought it because the color fits tonight's concept."

Apple sneered. "Rich people are different…"

Jayden laughed when he heard that and then kissed Apple on the lips gently, making the girl laugh. "You are also a rich woman now."

Jayden then lifted the finger of Apple, where the engagement ring circled and smiled cheekily at his fiancée. "Do you know the price of this ring?" he asked.

"How much?" Apple knew there was no way the legacy ring from the Tordoff family would have a normal price.

But, when Jayden leaned in to tell Apple how much the ring cost, of course she didn't expect it to be that expensive.

"WHAT?!" she cried out when she heard the nominal price of the ring on her finger. Immediately, the ring felt very heavy.

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

"Hey, wake up…" Jayden called out to Apple softly when the sun was already quite bright and dazzling.

Apple frowned, her body ached and when she saw this dazzling sunlight, she realized that she hadn't woken up this morning.

"What time is it?" asked Apple in a hoarse voice. Her body ached and the last thing she wanted was to get out of her comfortable blanket and this soft mattress.

Jayden didn't answer Apple's question, but he showed her the digital clock on his phone and noticed how his fiancée's expression changed in surprise.

"It's already afternoon?!" she cried, and immediately widened her eyes, but Apple then covered herself with the blanket again, because as she said before, she really didn't want to get out of this blanket. "I've never been up this late…" she grumbled, but had no intention of getting up at all.

She still remembered last night's events and stared at her ring from under the covers, laughing silently.

"I didn't wake you up because it was noon," Jayden said as he opened the blanket a little, so that at least Apple's face popped out. "I woke you up because Pyro was awake."

"What!?" Apple immediately pushed herself to sit up and nearly hit Jayden's head.

"Yeah, I just heard about it half an hour ago," Jayden told her.

"I have to go," said Apple hastily.

"Of course we'll go there." Jayden chuckled as he looked at Apple who got off the bed and forgot that she wasn't wearing anything under the blanket. "But, I think you should put on some clothes before we go there. Pyro could go back into a coma if he sees you like this."

Apple was so excited to see her father that she forgot about this and when she realized it, she immediately pulled the blanket to cover herself.

Only Jayden moved much faster and secured the blanket first by pulling it away from Apple.

"Jayden!" cried Apple in annoyance who then hit him with a pillow to cover his face, while she ran to the bathroom.

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

"Father?" called Apple when she came into the room with her father's favorite food.

Jayden had called the doctor there and asked if Pyro could eat the food before they came with the man's favorite dishes.

This was another advantage of having a boyfriend like Jayden Tordoff, because everything was guaranteed and under control.

Apple bit her lip when she saw Pyro half sitting, watching the news. He still looked weak and a little pale, but certainly much better than he was before.

Pyro's eyes lit up with joy when he saw who had come to meet him. He laughed softly and tried to sit up.

"I'm really worried about you," said Pyro, whereupon Apple helped him to sit up properly after placing the food she had brought onto the bedside table.

"You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine." Apple then pulled up a chair and sat beside his bed. "You must be hungry, I brought your favorite food."

Jayden had purposely been late because he wanted to give Apple and Pyro some time alone, while he did some of his work in the hospital cafeteria.

"How do you feel? Still sick?" asked Apple worriedly.

Pyro just waved his hand, as if dismissing the question. "I'm fine. Not a big deal."

Not a big deal? Apple snorted. He was in a coma for a few weeks, of course that was a huge deal. But she certainly didn't say it out loud.

"I brought you your favorite food."

But, Pyro just widened his eyes. "Apple! That ring!"
