Chapter 616 HE WAS INNOCENT
"Okay, this will be a little bit rough." Apple notified them in advance when she put the car in reverse, and the rear tires of this car had climbed onto the bumper of the car behind them.
The road, the place where they were stopped, tended to be quiet and not traversed by many car users and other vehicles, therefore, when this incident occurred, no one was an eyewitness to it.
"Do whatever you want, babe," Jayden said lightly, looking as if he had left his life one hundred percent to his fiancée's hands, as if they were in a simulated assault instead of a real one.
However, not everyone in this car had as strong a belief in Apple as Jayden did, because Adrian didn't have the same optimistic thoughts and he simply couldn't understand why Jayden could be so calm in their current situation and leave everything to Apple.
What an odd couple, while Adrian held his gun warily.
"Oh, I hate it when I have to ruin such a beautiful car," Apple grumbled when they felt the aftershocks and the car started to climb the car behind them and hit a man who didn't have enough time to jump aside to avoid the collision. "Oh, looks like I ran over someone."
Apple then drove their car away from the deserted street onto the main road, but that didn't mean she had escaped the chase.
"No problem, they can definitely take care of it," Jayden muttered again.
"Great. I don't want to go to jail for this."
"Don't worry, as far as I know, Adrian is driving this car."
"What?" Adrian then looked at Jayden Tordoff with a pitiful expression on his face. How could his boss throw him under the bus? Meanwhile, Jayden just smirked at him.
Love was really scary, indeed.
After Apple managed to get them out of the confines of the cars trying to ambush them, she then sped up and tried to leave behind the four cars, which were now trying to chase them.
"Take us to district twenty-third, babe," Jayden said. "I have a surprise for them."
"Got it." Apple then pressed the gas pedal very hard and overtook several cars in front of them.
Adrian had never really driven a car like this and instead sat in the passenger seat, because usually, for situations like this, he would be the one driving.
Moreover, to entrust his life to Apple, they didn't seem that close and he didn't have the deep trust that Jayden Tordoff had in his fiancée.
And with Apple behind the wheel, the car they were in was moving in a zigzag fashion, overtaking the others, while three cars followed them.
Apparently, the other car was no longer able to function properly to carry out this pursuit.
"Turn left," Jayden said, directing Apple to enter a deserted shopping area that had not been frequented for a long time. This area had been purchased by the Tordoff company, and an office area would be built.
However, because the paperwork had not yet been completed, the construction had not yet started.
"It's a dead end," Apple said, frowning.
"Turn the car around and turn on the spotlights at my command," Jayden ordered and Apple did exactly what was asked.
Apple made this car turn around and face the road she was on, there was only one way out of here and that was taking a U-turn. They must find another way before the three cars came and closed the access to the road.
However, then Apple saw that there were some people working in front of them, installing a nail stud that would rip your tires apart as you passed.
And in an instant, Apple realized what Jayden had been up to and what he had been talking about over the phone ever since.
While in the distance, they could hear the roar of approaching cars and this was a sign for them to get ready.
"Now," Jayden said as he saw the first car coming toward them and Apple immediately flashed the spotlights to blind the people behind the wheel for a moment, so they didn't see the trap Jayden's men had set.
It was easy enough to beat the first car because the car was apparently not bulletproof and all the bullets aimed at them penetrated the windshield and car body, finishing them off in just a few seconds.
While the other two cars following behind them started being bombarded by bullets as well as by the snipers stationed above the building, some of them tried to get out of the car, but of course that wasn't a good idea, as they died on the spot.
"You killed them all?" Apple asked, she seemed to be witnessing an action scene right now, only the entire cast were dead. "Didn't you leave someone to interrogate?"
"No need," Jayden replied curtly. "I already know who sent them and there is no more information I need from them. They're just errand boys who don't know anything."
Jayden would not be getting any important information from these people and would only be wasting his time.
"Good job, Apple," Jayden said, kissing her cheek, before he got out of the car.
"Just a kiss?" asked Apple, pursing her lips. "I have done an amazing job. Praise me more!"
Jayden laughed softly when he heard this, then he kissed Apple on the lips and whispered to her. "I'll give you more of this later, for now, let me sort this out first, before I take care of you."
Apple laughed and Jayden got out of the car, but her laughter stopped short when she saw Adrian's expression.
"What?" asked Apple, annoyed by Adrian's stare.
"You're so shameless," Adrian grumbled.
"If you feel uncomfortable, you should close your ears instead of eavesdropping on our conversation."
Adrian really wanted to facepalm himself. This car was not spacious enough, how could that be said to be eavesdropping?
He was innocent in this matter.
