BXBX NOVEL Chapter 427 APPLE
Chapter 427 APPLE
The clock was ticking so slowly and this left Jayden very frustrated. How could time pass so slowly?
The doctor had said that Pyro would be fine, but because his body was no longer young, it would take him quite a while to recover to normal, and even if he did, he wouldn\'t be able to work right away.
Or maybe not being able to work at all to be Jayden\'s bodyguard.
While Jayden himself didn\'t mind it. He didn\'t care whether Pyro could get well soon or not, but he certainly wanted the man he had known his whole life to get better.
Inside the hospital room, only the sound of the life supporting machines could be heard indicating that Pyro\'s heart was still functioning properly, backed up by the middle-aged man\'s heavy breathing.
Meanwhile, Jayden sat on the edge of Pyro\'s bed, holding his rough hand. He was about to fall asleep when someone suddenly and violently opened the hospital room door.
Immediately, Jayden grabbed the gun that was on the table beside Pyro\'s bed and swiftly pointed the gun at the door.
At first, Jayden thought he would see a swarm of men coming to attack him, although that was almost impossible in this hospital. But, what he saw was even more astonishing.
There, through the doorway, a young woman with shoulder-length curly hair and a fierce gaze and firm steps, was walking toward Jayden, or Pyro…
Jayden didn\'t have time to think about that when he heard a cursing sound from outside before four men entered in a panic.
The four men were the ones in charge of guarding this room, but from their expressions, it seemed that this mysterious young girl had just taught them some lessons.
"Put your gun down," the young woman grumbled, casting a fierce glare at Jayden, stopping only inches from the gun that was being pointed at her.
If Jayden decided to pull the trigger, it was certain that the woman wouldn\'t be able to see the next second.
"Of course it\'s not that easy pretty," Jayden replied in a calm voice, but his grip seemed stronger. "Just because you\'re beautiful, you can\'t just beat up people."
The four men who were currently in the room looked a little embarrassed by the fact that they were all defeated by a woman.
"At least tell me who you are?" Jayden asked.
"I am the daughter of the man who is dying because of your stupidity," the young girl said sarcastically, her gaze hard as if that alone could kill Jayden with her fury.
"Oh." Jayden remembered what Pyro said before, he lowered his gun. "You are Pyro\'s illegitimate child."
He didn\'t know what went through Pyro\'s mind to say that, because that was the last conversation between him and Pyro, but he didn\'t mean anything bad with his words.
On the other hand, as soon as she heard what Jayden said, the girl very quickly and swiftly grabbed the gun that Jayden had just lowered and aimed it at him.
The tip of the gun was now digging into Jayden\'s forehead.
Her sudden action made the four men behind her immediately take out their weapons and point them at the mad woman.
"Wow! Easy, easy…" Jayden said as he raised his hands, now things have turned around and the woman was in control. "Why are there so many people trying to kill me today?"
"You just realized that there are a lot of people who want to kill you? You shouldn\'t be surprised," the woman said sarcastically.
"Of course not, there will be a big party if my enemy manages to kill me." Jayden lowered his hand and shrugged nonchalantly. "But, at least wait in line."
In such close proximity, Jayden could see the similarities between the girl and Pyro. She had the face of the man, but of course in a good sense. She looked sweet and beautiful, but dangerous and fierce at the same time.
Interesting combination…
From the way she held the gun without hesitation and how comfortable she was with the gun in her hand, it was certain that this girl had learned all the tricks Pyro had.
"Get out of the way," she said impatiently. "And tell your fools to lower their guns."
"Hey you fools, put your guns down," Jayden said to the four men behind the girl. "I don\'t want to be rude, but this girl put a gun to my head," Jayden explained that he was only saying what she asked.
The four men then lowered their guns and Jayden signaled them to leave.
Hesitantly, they exited the room and closed the door again, realizing that the girl was Pyro\'s daughter.
"Very stupid."
Suddenly there was a voice from the direction of the sofa, which was located a bit far from the bed where Pyro was lying and neither of them noticed that Misha was there.
"How long have you been there?" Jayden asked, as the girl was about to point the gun at Misha.
"You don\'t have to be like that, Apple," Misha said, then he got up from his seat and walked toward the door. "I\'m going out now."
"You two know each other?" Jayden looked confused.
"Of course, she is Pyro\'s only daughter," he replied in a matter of fact tone.
"Then why am I the only one left out?" Jayden muttered, disbelieving this fact, because he thought he and Pyro were quite close.
"You too, out now." The girl named Apple put the gun into Jayden\'s hand again and immediately sat on the seat that Jayden had vacated when she barged into the room earlier.
Misha then took Jayden\'s arm and pulled him out of the room.
For a moment, Jayden, who was still surprised that Misha knew Pyro\'s daughter, didn\'t say anything as his cousin pulled him out. But when he was out of the room and walking down the corridor following Misha, he realized something.
"Why should I go out? Didn\'t I pay for this hospital room? Then why am I the one being thrown out?" he said pettily.
