Jayden never thought that he would find Apple in such a scenario. In his mind, he concluded that now Apple would be in pain, injured, having fallen from a horse.
Or maybe the worst case scenario was that the assassins were after Apple and now the woman was in their captivity.
However, what Jayden had now in front of him was far from what he had imagined and it made him unable to decide whether to laugh or cry when he saw what was happening.
"Come and hold me, I want to get away from this man," Apple said again because Jayden didn't move from his place at all. The man just stood there stunned, staring at her. "No need to worry, I have disarmed him, he is not dangerous," Apple said proudly. She even said that she was injured very lightly, as if it was not a big problem.
Apple thought Jayden didn't come to her right away because he was being careful, wary if this man had a gun he was hiding.
