<h4>Chapter 465 RELAX</h4>


    "You have a gun?" he asked directly, without greeting her or whatsoever. Those were the first words spoken by Jayden once themunication between the two of them got back to work.


    "One gun." Apple remembered the gun she had, but now it was in the room where the kids were being held, because it was in the jacket she left in there. She had to go back into the room to get it.


    "Go up to the deck of the ship, I''ll be there in two minutes." It was a hasty order and Apple didn''t have much time to question it.


    "What?" Apple frowned, but then she followed what she was told and immediately rushed out of the room, but before that, Apple took the time to kick the leg of the man she was holding captive. "I''ll be upstairs in five minutes."


    It took Apple about three minutes to go back into the room where the children were being held and retrieve her jacket, inside which she found the gun and knife.


    The kids and teens were shocked at the sight of the weapons, but Apple didn''t have much time to exin.


    "I''ll be right back." She ran toward the door and this time she didn''t lock it, just leaving it open. "Come out in fifteen minutes, okay?"


    Everyone inside nodded and looked at Apple with eyes full of amazement, and only then did they believe that this girl wasn''t lying when she said she would save them.


    It took Apple six minutes to get to the deck of the ship and find that Jayden was in a low-flying helicopter, trying tond on this ship, while the men on board attempted to shoot him.


    Well, it was a great idea toe by helicopter since Jayden had trauma of the sea and ships, but it wouldn''t be a wise choice to fight them from up there either…


    Helicopters were unstable for this kind of battle.


    And now, Apple knew why she had to get out of the hull and help Jayden knock these people out.


    Once Apple was on the deck of the ship, she didn''t hesitate to step up and shoot the first man she saw followed by the second.


    It was quite easy to do because they were not aware of her existence at this time.


    However, when they found out that someone else was on board and was trying to attack them, the remaining four went straight for Apple.


    "I have to admit your idea is cool, but could you please send someone to help me? They''re going to kill me here," Apple grumbled to Jayden through theirmunication device.


    Apple then looked up and saw Jayden sitting in the back seat of the helicopter and ordering two people to get down on a rope to help Apple.


    "Keep them busy, I will send two people to help you."


    "How do I keep them busy? By offering myself as a target for their guns?" Apple quipped, but then she did what she could now; fired her bullets wildly to attract their attention toward herself.


    "Well, it will only take them ten seconds to get down, so hang on as long as you can," Jayden replied.


    Apple grumbled something incoherent, dodging the shots that were aimed at her.


    "If you''reing by a helicopter, you shouldn''t have let me get on this ship."


    "This n urred to me just a moment ago."


    "You''re not a great nner."


    "No, but I''m a great executioner," Jayden corrected Apple. "Okay, they''re down, you can rx now."


    Rx? What did Jayden mean by rx? Sit back and enjoy the oceanic view?


    "No, thanks, I will rx once I get to my room." Apple jumped from ce to ce to take cover from the four men who wanted to kill her, while Jayden watched her from the helicopter. "Why don''t youe down and try to rx here?"


    "Oh, no thanks, you know that I have trauma of the sea and ships? I feel much morefortable in my expensive helicopter." Jayden even waved his hand at Apple with a smile, making the girl feel tempted to fire her gun at the helicopter above her.


    "Get out of here now before I shoot down your expensive helicopter!" Apple grumbled.


    "Look to your left," Jayden said, informing her that one of the four men would attack her from the left.


    Luckily, thanks to Jayden''s warning Apple was able to fire the bullet right at the man just in time.


    "Nice teamwork!" Jayden said.


    "I am the one who works here, not you," Apple snorted, but she was grateful that Jayden had alerted her, even though she didn''t express her gratitude verbally.


    "Oh, my sweet cousin ising on the speedboat, you''ll be safe now."


    And sure enough, in the distance Apple could see several speedboats moving closer, their voices could even be heard before the speedboats appeared.


    "See you on the ground," Jayden said, waving his hand from the helicopter before ordering the pilot to take him away from there.


    Just looking at the scenery below made Jayden feel nauseous. His head felt heavy, but he insisted oning to this ce himself.


    ====================


    In the end, that day''s mission waspleted and it could be said that it waspleted quite well, although there were some things that were not nned.


    "Come here, let me help," Jayden said as he approached Apple who had just gotten off one of the speedboats with Misha.


    He came over with a box filled with medicine and bandages.


    "What?" Apple was just about to get mad at him for changing his ns on a whim, but her protests were pushed back when Jayden told her to sit down and then helped her clean the wound on her hand. "Oh, I didn''t realize that I was hurt," Apple muttered.


    She looked down at her bloody hand. This must have happened when she beat up the man in the hull because he started acting like a jerk.
