Chapter 722: PRESS CONFERENCE

This morning, no, lately, Jayden had been a little more spoiled than usual. He would cuddle Apple more and touch her flat tummy more than necessary.         

He seemed to have calmed down a bit and it was actually a bit odd for Apple, since she was not used to seeing this side of Jayden, but it was not that she didn't like it.     

"I was just saying hello to my child," Jayden replied in a soft voice. "Good morning, my baby." Jayden then landed a soft kiss on Apple's stomach. "You make me so happy," he said in a sincere voice.     

Apple laughed softly when she heard Jayden's statement, she then gently stroked the man's head and kissed the top of his head.     

"You are tickling me," said Apple. "Shouldn't you go to work now? Or else Misha will be mad at you."     

"Let him be angry, it's worth it, if I can spend more time with you," Jayden said sulkily. "Ah… why do I have to keep working, even if I don't work for a month or nine months, the company won't go bankrupt anyway," Jayden complained.     

This wasn't the first time Jayden had complained like this. He would turn a little cranky when he had to be away from Apple at times like this, and it reminded her of a child who sulked when he didn't want to go to school.      

"The company may still be fine, since Misha is more than competent to manage it, but what about the case with Theodore Gevano? News circulating in the mass media about our relationship? My mother's misleading interview and also Jack's adoption issue?" Apple reminded him all of that and made Jayden immediately slap his ears shut and stare at Apple in horror.     

"Stop, stop!" Jayden exclaimed, because what Apple said really spoiled his mood, he didn't want to remember those things.     

"Or... since you are dealing with too many problems, let me help you, after all half of your problems are purely my own problems because they come from my family," said Apple.     

Hearing this, Jayden immediately frowned. He had already told Apple she didn't need to think about such unimportant things and should start thinking about herself instead.     

The only task she had to do right now was to ensure the health of herself and the child she was carrying, so Jayden would not allow Apple to touch the issues at hand.     

He was more than enough to handle them all. It was just, well… he was just a little lazy to keep himself busy and it seemed that after learning about Apple's pregnancy, he had become unmotivated, especially with the case involving Theodore, he just wanted the matter to be over quickly so he could have a lot of free time for himself with Apple.     

"Alright, alright…" Jayden sneered, he pursed his lips when he heard what Apple said. "It seems you really want to kick me out of here… I'm a little offended to hear that."     

Apple laughed when she heard that, especially when she saw the expression Jayden was making, how could he look so cute like this.     

Jayden then stood up and grumbled to take his coat, meanwhile, Apple also stood up and hugged Jayden from behind.     

"Hurry back home, I'll be waiting for you here," said Apple, which made Jayden beam, the feeling of someone waiting for him to come home was nice.     

This was one of the reasons why he was so desperate to get Apple out of this apartment and make haste of his plans to have their own place to live, because he wanted to have a little family like this, someone waiting for his return.     

"Of course I'll be home soon," Jayden said as he turned around and hugged Apple tightly. "Where else am I going to go after finishing all those annoying things? Of course I will return home as soon as possible."     

Apple tiptoed and kissed his lips gently.     

=============================      

A few days passed quietly since the day of the wedding dress fitting together with Hailee. Usually Hailee would take Apple out for shopping or she would just drop by and cook for Apple, even though she had said not to bother doing all that, but nothing could change Mrs. Tordoff's mind.     

Hailee would say that she only did the little things and wasn't bothered at all.     

Actually, Apple had no problem with Hailee wanting to cook herself a meal because Hailee's cooking was absolutely delicious and she couldn't resist the mouthwatering aroma every time she finished cooking.     

It was also undeniable that Apple would eat more when Hailee cooked for her, especially when she started feeling symptoms of morning sickness as she was now two months pregnant.     

Every morning, Jayden would wake up and patiently accompany her when the nausea became unbearable. Even if Apple asked him to leave, Jayden would insist on being with her. He would help Apple hold her hair or massage her head whenever she felt dizzy.         

He did all of this without complaining, even though he had only slept a few hours a night because he had so much to do, considering the many problems that came at them non-stop.     

And today, was the day that Apple would hold a press conference regarding the rumors that were circulating out there, especially when her mother started to attract sympathy from the mass media while public opinion about Apple went down the drain.     

"Are you nervous?" Jayden asked as they got in the car, heading for the Tordoff Company building where they were going to have a press conference.     

"No, I'm hungry," answered Apple honestly. She would not eat much, but ate often. She couldn't finish a single portion of food, but she wouldn't stop eating something every ten minutes. This time around, that was Apple's diet.     

Jayden chuckled when he heard what Apple said, but then he kissed the top of her head and smiled proudly.     

"I know that you will be hungry like this, therefore, I have prepared snacks for you," Jayden said. He then stretched his hand forward and Adrian immediately handed him a box containing strawberry cake that Apple recently came to like. "I've prepared this for you, where are my compliments?" demanded Jayden.     

On the other hand, when Apple saw the cake, she smiled happily and took the cake to eat it immediately.     

"Good boy," Apple said as she stroked Jayden's head, but her focus was entirely on the cake in front of her.     

"Good boy?" Jayden narrowed his eyes. "Why do I feel like you are treating me like a puppy?" he grumbled.     

"Don't complain, I'm enjoying my cake." Apple then ate voraciously.     

Seeing Apple like this, Jayden was of course very happy, at least she didn't have appetite problems, because based on what he had read, there were some pregnant women who couldn't even keep anything in their systems for too long.     

But, seeing Apple eating quietly like this, it seemed like she was fine, so there was nothing to worry about.     

"Eat in peace," Jayden said as he cleaned the cream on the corner of Apple's lips with his finger.     

The trip to Tordoff's company wasn't that long, because the apartment they lived in was very close to the building, so before Apple could finish her cake, they had arrived.     

They went through a special path so that security was guaranteed and there was no need to jostle with the reporters who were waiting for them in front of the building. Although the press conference was about to start and they could ask their questions there, it seemed some of them liked the noise.     

"Are you ready?" Jayden asked, holding out his hand to help Apple get out of the car and placing his hand around the girl's waist protectively.     

"Yeah, looks like I have no other choice in this case, doesn't it?" asked Apple, she then walked toward the company building with Jayden beside him.     

========================      

"This is the first time I have seen the future wife of Mr. Tordoff, you're so beautiful," said Apple's hairstylist, working on her hair while the others did Apple's makeup.     

This time, Apple wore a white dress with flat shoes. This outfit didn't look luxurious, but it did look elegant and make her look like someone you couldn't take for granted.     

It complimented the self-image that Apple would build in the eyes of the public from now on. It was not that she would be appearing in the media more often, but at least, for now, it was very important.     

"Thank you," Apple said awkwardly. She glanced back at the cake on the table and really wanted to eat it, but couldn't.     

"Your hair is also very beautiful," said Stella, the hairdresser. "So smooth, soft and shiny."     

"Thanks," Apple said again, but her eyes were still trained on the cake on the table. Ugh. She really wanted to eat, but the makeup artist was applying lipstick for her.     

"Ah, you must be tense, how about something to drink first? I'll bring you a drink," said the makeup artist, and then hurried off. Apparently, she misunderstood Apple's desire to reach for the cake she wanted to eat into a tense attitude before the press conference.         

Therefore, she returned with a glass of wine and passed it to Apple's hand.     

"Drink this first, I will fix your lipstick later," she said with a cheerful smile, but then she looked at Apple who did not immediately drink the wine she gave. "Why? Don't you like this?"     

Apple chuckled and handed back the wine glass, saying; "I can't drink, because I'm pregnant right now."     

They were silent for a moment, but then their eyes widened in surprise. "PREGNANT?!"
