A feeling of dread enveloped her as soon as Apple entered the swimming pool area where the party was taking place and found that all eyes were on her. She could feel the sharp gazes of all of them, who were staring at her scornfully.
However, she knew it was because of the man next to her, who was half hugging her body and it was this man who earned her the hostile stares of the women here.
So, subconsciously, Apple's instincts told her to stay away from Jayden. She didn't want to get into any trouble tonight, nor to cause a mess at Jayden's cousin's party which she was attending for the first time.
However, Jayden did not agree with Apple's intentions. He didn't want to be away from her and after all, why should Apple avoid him anyway? He wanted to show that he had someone by his side and that was Apple, because he was proud to have her, so they could walk away from him for all he cared.
