Chapter 555 HER BACKGROUND
Chapter 555 HER BACKGROUND
Apple came over in a limousine that stopped right in front of a luxury resort that had been reserved for the Tordoffs.
The resort is a tourist destination that is very famous for its beautiful sea views and is located on a high cliff. So you can be sure that privacy is very well maintained in this place.
A place that is very suitable for members of the Tordoff family who really value their privacy.
And booking just a single resort villa requires a very good fortune and wealth because this place is very expensive.
But, Apple shouldn\'t be surprised, considering this is the Tordoff family gathering, where the rich people gather.
Apple felt like a swindler in fancy clothes and expensive jewelry, getting out of this limousine, while being arguably the poorest of the people in there.
"No. No. No. Don\'t think like that," Apple said to herself. She shook her head vigorously. She didn\'t want these negative thoughts to damage her self-confidence even more.
Jayden would be there and he wouldn\'t let herself get into any trouble. All Apple had to do now was be a good girl and not cause a mess.
There is no need to talk unless you are asked. No need to have a conversation with anyone. She would be very grateful if no one spoke to her tonight and left her alone.
Okay, she just had to survive for a few hours there and after that she could go home and curl up in her comfortable blanket.
"Okay, you can do it," Apple whispered to herself as the driver opened the door for her and let her step out of the car. Not to forget, Apple had even drank a glass of champagne to soothe her tense nerves.
But it seemed she needed a bottle of champagne to really ease the tension in her system when she stepped in and was confronted by two young girls who were serving as receptionists.
"May I see the invitation?" one of the girls asked very politely. She tried not to stare at Apple too long, but of course it was difficult to do, because the woman in front of her was absolutely stunning.
Apple then took out her cell phone from the small handbag she carried, but when she saw the cellphone, she cursed in her heart because of his stupidity.
She forgot to charge her cell phone because today the two stylish people sent by Jayden had taken all her attention and time, so much so she forgot that her cell phone\'s battery was low and now the little gadget wouldn\'t turn on at all.
"You guys have chargers? Can I borrow it for a moment? My phone has no power." Apple showed both of them the screen of her totally dead phone.
The invitation was sent via email and only family members and a few plus ones from Tordoff family members were invited.
These plus ones are important people for the Tordoff family because they have been considered to be part of the Tordoff family and one of the goals of tonight\'s event is to introduce them into the big family.
"Oh, please come with us," one of them said very kindly. She was still smiling sweetly at Apple.
But then, one of them seemed to recognize Apple and gasped for a moment. "You are Apple, Jayden Tordoff\'s girlfriend, right?"
Apple chuckled, still feeling weird about the name, especially when she said yes.
"Yeah, you could say that," Apple said in a low voice.
"Ah, too bad, we have to register your invitation before letting you in, even though Mr. Tordoff asked if you had come or not," the girl who had dimples looked regretful about that.
"It\'s okay, once your phone is on you can directly meet Mr. Tordoff." The other girl, who was about to take Apple to charge her phone, looked much more excited.
"Thank you, I\'ll be back soon." Apple was then about to follow the girl when someone came from behind them and called out for Apple.
"Who are you?" the woman asked. She looked very elegant in her black evening gown with a man beside her.
Apple turned and looked around, thinking that the woman was talking to someone else, but there was no one there except her, so it was certain that the woman was talking to Apple.
"Oh, I remember, you\'re the woman who\'s rumored to be together with Jayden Tordoff, aren\'t you?" she said in a low voice and with an appreciative look in her eyes.
Oh, please, the night hadn\'t even started yet, she was already in an unpleasant position. Apple cursed inwardly. She wanted to ignore this woman, because she didn\'t even know who the woman and man beside her were.
"What did you come here for? You think Jayden invited you to come?" she asked sarcastically, but the man Apple thought was her husband just stood there, doing nothing when his wife started insulting someone she just met. "You don\'t have to expect much, there\'s no way Jayden likes you. Your family background doesn\'t support being in the Tordoff family at all."
This is one of the reasons why Apple is so reluctant to have a relationship with Jayden, because her family background will always be an issue.
It\'s just that, at this point, Apple didn\'t want to lower herself like that, let alone admit defeat in front of this woman.
Especially since Jayden had convinced her many times that there was nothing wrong with her family background, and Hailee had said the same thing.
Therefore, very calmly, Apple replied to the woman\'s words.
"If you have nothing more to say, then I\'ll go," Apple said lightly and was about to walk away from there, but the woman didn\'t want to let it go and reached out her hand to pull Apple.
Unfortunately, Apple had pretty good reflexes and when she sensed herself being in danger, her bodily reflexes took over before she could think long.
