Chapter 5 - She Married a Crazy Man

Jade's face contorted as she tried hard to contain the rage in her heart. 

The main reason she decided to go to her apartment was to have some peace. But this man wouldn't let her have a respite.

"I'll come back before dusk," she said, hoping that he would let her go by herself. 

"I will go with you, whether you like it or not," he spat his words authoritatively like a military general giving orders to his  subordinates.   

She can't show her anger so she resorted to mocking him. 

"Sir, yes, sir, " Jade said as if she saluted her commander. 

Instead of getting exasperated at her mocking, Tyler's lips twitched. 

Tyler held her hand the whole time they made their way to where his car was parked. 

Jade couldn't do anything but to swallow her anger. She can't even scowl at Tyler as there were servants looking at them. 

"Where to madam?" Tyler said, while Jade buckled up. 

She raised her eyebrow, trying to decipher if he was teasing her. However, she's got no clue as his expression was cold and decided to type the address on the navigation system screen. 

He slammed on the accelerator.  And the car zoomed off. 

"Could you slow down," Jade could not stop herself from speaking out. 

Her beautiful face drained out of color and she looked like a corpse. If she hadn't emptied her stomach a while ago she would have vomited inside his car. 

Rather than slowing down, Tyler made it faster. 

Jade knew that he was trying to piss her off. So, she shut her mouth and didn't make a comment even when she felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

'I married a crazy man' her mind screamed. 

When they arrived at her apartment building, Jade hastily went out of the car and dry heave. 

Tyler just stayed inside the car until she finished dry heaving. 

She walked into the building hurriedly, and entirely ignored Tyler. 

It wasn't difficult for Tyler to catch up with Jade, with his long slender legs he was able to catch up with her, in just a few strides he was walking side by side with her.

Jade reminded herself of the purpose in marrying this annoying man so she wouldn't explode in anger. 

As they entered her apartment, Tyler wasn't surprised, the elegance and the simplicity of the apartment's interior design was like Jade. She wore no accessories, no make up, yet she looked exquisite. 

Tyler shook his head. 'What on earth is happening to my head?' 

Jade went straight to her room, took her laptop and put her earphone on both ears. 

She better have to work with the mission so she could divorce this man and have her peaceful life back. 

She started hacking. The earlier she could give the complete list of masterminds of the rebellion and their cohorts, the earlier she could divorce the man. 

After a while when she didn't come out of her room, Tyler followed her and saw her concentrating on her mission. He silently took a chair to sit behind her. 

Two hours later, Jade tied her long blond hair in a messy bun, exposing her sexy neck. 

Tyler's gaze darkened while watching her slender and long finger delicately rubbing her neck. 

He reached out to remove her earphone, just to make her remember that she wasn't alone in the room. 

Jade suddenly remembered that Tyler came with her. She turned her head and came face to face with the man. 

Their nose touched, making her face suffused with color. She stood abruptly to hide her blushing face but regretted doing it as her numb feet couldn't hold her weight making her pitch forward to Tyler and tumble down. 

His quick reflex enabled him to protectively wrap his arm around her before they fell. 

Still in daze, Jade leaned her head on his chest. The thundering of his chest took her out of her daze. And realized that she was lying on top of him. 

Tyler looked down and was just in time to see her face turned bright red. 

She rolled over from him and sat up, her back towards him.  

"What are you doing here?" She asked, curbing her temper because she was tempted to kick him. 

Tyler sat up and looked at her with an indecipherable gaze. "I was looking at how you do the hacking." 

Jade took a deep breath before opening her mouth to speak. "You're scaring me to death. If I die, I couldn't finish my mission of helping you to know the moles in your ranks." 

"You're exaggerating, no one dies being startled," Tyler stood and rearranged his disarrayed shirt as if he was in his military uniform. 

Jade couldn't resist the urge to roll her eyes and gave into it. She stood after a minute and glanced at the clock on the bedside table and found it's already lunch time.
