Chapter 678: YOU ARE SO CHILDISH

Chapter 678: YOU ARE SO CHILDISH

Apple woke up because she heard a commotion coming from the kitchen. She could immediately recognize that it was Jayden and her father's voices, so she didn't get out of bed immediately and hoped that the two of them could solve whatever problem they were having and not fight in the middle of the night like this. But apparently, whatever the problem was, it couldn't be handled easily, as Pyro sounded really annoyed.

From Apple's room, she could only hear their voices, without being able to fathom what they were saying. So when the two of them didn't stop fighting, she immediately left her room, although her head was still spinning and she wasn't fully awake yet.

"What is this?" said a sleepy voice and then the figure of Apple appeared, with slightly messy hair, rubbing her still sleepy eyes. "Why are you guys making a fuss in the middle of the night?" she asked in a low voice and then yawned.

She saw the two of them standing on either side of the dining table. Were they playing catch and run using the table as a barrier? Like children? Apple shook her head.

What was with these two guys...

"Apple!" Pyro exclaimed in a loud voice. "Come here now!" he said in a commanding voice and this didn't sit right with Jayden.

"Don't snap at her," Jayden rebuked with a grunt. He then gave a signal to Apple not to follow Pyro's orders, but the girl didn't understand why the two of them were fighting in the first place, in fact she had no idea at all about it.

"She's my daughter, I can do whatever I want!" Pyro shouted at Jayden in annoyance. Ugh! This rancid boy…!

Pyro regretted that he didn't give Jayden proper lessons when he was still a teenager, or at least make him listen to what he had to say. He should have taught the lessons a lot harder back then, especially when Ramon didn't mind.

The relationship between Jayden and Ramon could be said to be very good, but still, Jayden couldn't really tell Ramon everything, because he was his father who rarely showed emotions and was very practical, but Jayden really idolized his father.

Jayden even hoped to be more like his father who looked authoritative and exuded a very dominant aura, however, Jayden really failed in his ambition, although sometimes when he was serious, he looked like Ramon, but in everyday life, he looked more like Hailee instead.

Therefore, Jayden was more comfortable talking about trivial things with his mother or Pyro, which made the two of them very close.

"But, I'm her future husband!" Jayden exclaimed not wanting to lose. "I am the father of the child she is carrying!" Jayden wanted to make it even with Pyro, but it made Apple widen her eyes when she heard what Jayden had just said. "Your father already knows," Jayden said.

"Already knows…?" Apple gasped. She hadn't prepared herself for this, so how could her father have known before she could say anything? Apple bit her lip and didn't dare look her father in the eye, instead she glared fiercely at Jayden. "Why did you tell him? I told you we'd tell him later."

"I didn't tell him, Pyro sneaked up on me and overheard my conversation with Misha," Jayden defended himself, he then moved swiftly before taking cover behind Apple's body. "I thought your father would kill me."

"Yes, I will kill you! Come here!" Pyro exclaimed, very annoyed. He tried to get closer to Jayden, but this time the one standing in his way was his own daughter and this made Pyro even more annoyed at Jayden. "Come to me yourself! I'll just give you one or five hits!"

"One or five? No way!" Jayden refused, he then used Apple as his shield again. "You can't stress a pregnant woman, you have to stop your childish behavior!" Jayden shouted at Pyro, asking him to stop.

"Childish!?" Pyro really wanted to hit this guy right now and he wasn't kidding at all about his threats. Jayden really drained all his patience. "Come here you two! Looks like you guys have been left too free!"

"You can't hurt her," Jayden said in a voice that sounded like someone was desperate, because he didn't know how to deal with an angry Pyro anymore.

"Who said that I would hurt my daughter!" Pyro exclaimed with fiery eyes. He tried to catch Jayden, but the man kept avoiding him and made it unable for him to move freely because he was hiding behind Apple's body.

No matter how upset Pyro was right now, he couldn't possibly hurt Apple, especially since she was now pregnant with his grandchild. There was no way he could do that to his own daughter.

On the other hand, Jayden who knew about it made good use of it and tried to avoid Pyro as much as he could, even though the man didn't want to give up.

"Apple… help me," Jayden whispered into Apple's ear.

Apple knew that this wasn't going to end anytime soon if she didn't do something to stop her father either, so when she heard Jayden's desperate plea for help, Apple couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Apple felt these two men really were like children.

But, what could she do? If she didn't step in, then all of this probably wouldn't stop until morning.

And with that thought, Apple suddenly bent down and hugged her stomach while wincing in pain.

"Aw... aw..." Apple moaned which made both Jayden and Pyro freeze in place. They both looked at Apple with frightened eyes and in the next second the two men were already squatting in front of Apple and looking at her very worriedly.

"What's wrong? Are you in pain? Do you want to see a doctor?" Pyro asked worriedly, he had forgotten all about his anger toward Jayden now, for his voice was filled with anxiety, as he knelt before Apple. "You! Take her back to the room!" he ordered Jayden.
