Chapter 702: CONFUSING DEAL WITH APPLE
"Why are you so interested in that child? You want to suddenly become his sister?" Derek was still annoyed by the fact that Apple had ruined his relationship with Gladys, he realized that he really loved Gladys and wanted to be with her.
The days he spent now felt very suffocating and made him choke with guilt and regret.
"That's none of your business, you can also not answer it," said Apple, she then leaned her body against the back of the sofa.
Of course, Apple wouldn't force Derek to talk if he didn't want to, especially if he wanted to be this annoying. Sometimes, Apple couldn't understand what was really going through Derek's head. He destroyed his own life like this by cheating on Gladys with Rachel.
"I'll answer your question," Derek said at last because he couldn't stand the tense, wordless awkward situation between them, even though it was really just him feeling that way, because Apple looked so casual.
She didn't want to stress herself about what was going on, because she didn't want anything to happen to her or her child.
Right now, she was thinking that her pregnancy was likely to be easy when compared to the first pregnancy experiences of every woman in some of the stories she read.
She didn't feel excessive nausea or strange cravings.
"Huh? What? What did you say?" asked Apple, trying to get out of her own head. She had almost forgotten that Derek was in front of her because the atmosphere had indeed become very calm.
Derek frowned, but he didn't want to lose his temper. Actually, he didn't want to ask Apple for help, considering that this girl had made Gladys so determined not to contact him again.
However, Apple was the only one he could turn to for help at this time.
"I'll answer your questions, all your questions," Derek said in a calm voice. "But, I want you to help me with something."
Apple blinked her eyes for a moment and then raised her hand as she said. "Pass."
"What?" Derek didn't expect to get such a reaction, what did she mean by that? "What do you mean?"
"I know what you want and I don't want to help you with it," Apple said. Oh, she knew very well what this asshole in front of her wanted.
"What do you know? You don't know anything," Derek grumbled, he didn't want to admit it. But it really looked like that, didn't it?
Apple raised her eyebrows when she heard that and chuckled, while crossing her legs. "Okay, let's hear what you want, but if you start talking about Gladys, then I'll close my ears, okay?" asked Apple in a calm voice.
She knew what he was doing and she didn't want to spend her time discussing unimportant things with Derek, while she could make the most of this waiting time by looking up articles about pregnancy and reading them on her cell phone to increase her knowledge, because she had been so ignorant all along about that.
On the other hand, Derek could only clench his jaw because he knew that what he was going to say after this would have everything to do with Gladys, regardless of whatever he was going to say later.
"So?" asked Apple provokingly, but Derek didn't dare say a word, because what he was going to say next would of course have to do with Gladys, whatever it was, that girl would definitely be a topic of conversation for him. "I think I already know the answer," Apple muttered.
"How is Gladys doing now?" asked Derek.
But instead, Apple kept her ears shut, as she said she would do earlier and this made Derek a little annoyed at Apple's slightly childish attitude.
"You don't have to be like that, do you?" he grumbled because he saw Apple doing things she didn't need to do.
"I didn't hear you," Apple said curtly which irritated Derek even more, but he couldn't do anything to force the girl to speak.
Not to mention using violence, it wasn't because she was Jayden Tordoff's woman, but he knew that Apple wasn't the type of woman you could push like that, moreover, he saw what Apple did when they were on the island.
The incident at the pool certainly made Derek understand that Apple wasn't a girl you could afford to provoke.
"Ask me anything and I'll get it right, if you agree, you have to help me talk to Gladys. I just need to talk to her for five minutes," Derek was still trying to persuade Apple.
In the end, Apple lowered her hands from her ears and looked at Derek with scornful eyes. "I just asked, where is he?"
They both understood who the 'he' Apple was referring to was, of course, none other than Jack.
"He's with his dad, they share equal rights of his custody," Derek replied with certainty, which made Apple laugh.
"Dang!" exclaimed Apple. "Your answer is wrong!"
Derek frowned, how could he be wrong? Because that was what Apple's stepfather and mother said. "How could I be wrong?" he grumbled disapprovingly.
"Of course you are wrong, how can the child be at his biological father's house and in my house at the same time?" asked Apple, a triumphant smile on the corner of her lips. It seemed like upsetting Derek was a more pleasant way of spending time here.
"What do you mean?" This time it was Derek who asked Apple, prying to get a more detailed explanation.
Apple scoffed when she heard this. "If I explain things to you, then that means you have to explain more about the dynamics in this family, how about it? Then I will tell you why that child is in my house."
Wait, it looked like the initial agreement wasn't like this, then why did their barter make Apple the most profited here?
