It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!-Chapter 710: SURPRISE!

"You don't want to go home?" asked Apple gently. She sat down on the floor next to her little brother.

Jack then answered by shaking his head.

"You don't miss mommy?" Apple felt a little weird about this, since all she knew was; most children of Jack's age would think of and miss their mother when they were away from each other.

However, Jack didn't seem to want to go back to his mother at all.

On the other hand, hearing Apple's question, Jack fell silent.

"I miss her," replied Jack in a very low voice and this allowed Apple to see that there was still that longing left in Jack, after all, he was a child who still needed his parents. "But I like being here, with sister Apple and uncle Pyro."

Apple didn't know how to respond to this, so she just let things flow.

"You want to see mom again?" asked Apple and she saw Jack shaking his head. "Why? Don't you miss mommy?"

"She doesn't miss me," said Jack after a moment of silence.

For some reason, Apple felt sad when she heard what Jack said. Wasn't a child his age very close to his mother and wanted to always be with his mother?

Especially when he was in a unfamiliar place he didn't know about? So how could Jack be so comfortable here and not even ask for his mother? f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

But then, who was she kidding? She was also like the current Jack when she found out that her mother didn't want her at all, so there was nothing strange about this, right? Especially when you had a mother like Nadia, she could be your worst nightmare even when you were wide awake.

Meanwhile, Apple couldn't answer Jack's last words, because she didn't know how to respond to them.

"I want to live here, can I just stay here, sister?" asked Jack in a pitiful tone. He looked at Apple with pleading eyes, as if he would cry if Apple rejected him at that moment.

However, such a decision was not an easy one to make, there were several things that should be considered before enduring a long procedure if they really wanted to take custody of Jack.

After all, Pyro was not Jack's biological father, therefore, the only possible thing to do was to adopt him.

"I promise I'll be a good boy," Jack said, persuading Apple, because he thought she would say no to his request. "I promise I will help and not make a mess of the house, I'm used to cleaning the house."

Apple believed in him. Who else would clean the house if not this little boy? It was highly unlikely that Nadia or James would be the ones cleaning the house when they had someone they could turn to.

"Hey, you don't have to make promises as such," said Apple in a soft voice, she then reached out her hand and hugged her little brother. "We will try to make you stay here, okay?"

Jack nodded and he cried in her arms, while Apple patted him on the back. "Everything will be alright."

Allowing Jack to live in this house was not a difficult thing, because Pyro definitely wanted this child around here, he seemed to have accepted Jack very much, considering he would live alone in the future.

And it seemed with the connections Pyro had, it was not impossible for him to adopt Jack, but of course it was going to be a long and a bit tedious process.

"We'll try to get you here, okay?" said Apple gently.

========================

"Where have you been?" Jayden asked as he grumbled to Apple and immediately hugged her tightly as she just got out of the car.

This man was so impatient to meet his pregnant fiancée, he couldn't even wait inside the apartment and insisted on waiting in the parking lot so he could meet Apple as soon as possible.

"What happened at your house?" Jayden asked, taking Apple's small handbag and carrying it, because he didn't want her to carry anything.

Based on the way Jayden asked this, it looked like he already got a report from Gabriel or Danny about the police coming to her house. He was just asking Apple to clarify the matter now.

At that thought, Apple then told what happened and also about her and Pyro's decision to adopt Jack. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

"I'll talk to my lawyer about it," Jayden said, as the two of them got into the elevator.

Only, Apple looked at him disapprovingly.

"What is it?" Jayden asked as he sensed Apple's sharp gaze. "I know I'm handsome, but there's no need to look at me like that, you're embarrassing me."

Apple could only laugh resignedly when she heard this. They hadn't been alone for a week or two and it wasn't the first time Jayden had behaved this way either, but still hearing what he said just left Apple in awe, as she shook her head.

"You don't have to do that, aren't your lawyers busy with their cases?" said Apple.

And it was only now that Apple had realized that Jayden was involved in many legal cases, such as legal issues with the Gevano family and also legal issues with her former modeling agency.

Therefore, Apple didn't think adding one more case to Jayden's plate was a good thing to do now.

"No problem, I can recruit another lawyer," Jayden said lightly.

And then, they arrived at their apartment, and Apple found herself unable to move an inch when Jayden finally opened the door.

"Surprise!" Jayden said in a cheerful voice, while Apple was speechless when she saw what Jayden had prepared for her.

"When did you do all of this?" Apple stepped out of the elevator slowly and looked at what Jayden had prepared for her. "Oh, I can't believe this at all," Apple muttered.

"Why not? Don't you know how romantic your future husband is?"

"No, this is outright cheesy."
