It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!
210 FIND OUT WHO IS THAT MAN
Although Amy's question sounded simple, there was another meaning behind the question.
Of course what Amy really wanted to ask was; what was Ramon and Hailee's married life really like? Was it true that the rumors out there that this marriage was just a sham to benefit both parties? A convenience marriage?
However, while Amy could list the long list of benefits that Hailee could get when she married Ramon, she couldn't make even a handful of lists, of the benefits that Ramon could get from marrying Hailee.
What game were these two actually playing?
Indeed, it was not Amy's place to ask this and also this was not the right question to ask in a light game like this, so Charlie had given Amy a warning look, but she just ignored it.
It seemed that Amy's curiosity was greater and the fact that they were from the same school made her even more daring to think that Ramon was her old friend.
On the other hand, of course Hailee caught the meaning of the sentence.
Huh. She realized that even being in Ramon's circle couldn't help one to discern whether someone was a friend or foe. Because, they would try to stab or scrape something about you subtly, even when you were a person that they just met.
So bold…
Hailee had to give a thumbs up to all of them here who could live in such a grueling social environment.
"What is our marriage life like?" Ramon repeated the question in a fairly calm tone as he took a sip of his wine. Then the man pulled his wife closer and tilted Hailee's head until their gazes met. "This is how our wedding looks like."
Then, without warning, Ramon suddenly kissed Hailee's lips and bit her lightly, leaving everyone there were stunned by Ramon's unexpected answer and plummeting the atmosphere into an awkward situation.
Who would have thought that Ramon was the type of guy who wouldn't mind displaying affection in public?! It just didn't fit the image of him that's circulating out there, okay!?
Only, Ramon didn't seem to care about the change in atmosphere that ensued his bold act.
One thing they should know, that; Ramon didn't like it when his personal life was disturbed or questioned.
He knew, once he answered that question, another stupid question would follow and Ramon didn't want to have any of that.
"Is this enough to answer your question?" Ramon asked, glancing at Amy briefly, before finally turning his attention back to his wife's flushed face.
And as if realizing that Hailee's lipstick had got stuck to his lips from the kiss, Ramon wiped his own lips with the back of his hand.
Hailee could have sworn that she had never seen any man look so sexy while doing something so simple.
Ugh!
Was it a sin to be addicted to your own husband?
================
This was Giana's second day in the hospital, and also the day she forced herself to return home, because she felt that staying here was just an excuse for her father to hide herself from the eyes of the outside world.
Giana was tired of hiding...
However, the first thing Giana saw when she woke up and was about to get ready to be discharged from the hospital was a live broadcast of the press conference that was being held by Aidan.
It was ten-thirty and the press conference seemed to be nearing its end.
Chloe, Giana's secretary immediately grabbed the television remote and tried to turn it off, but Giana swiftly pushed her hand away and grabbed the remote.
Her eyes blazed with anger staring at the innocent television screen. And, her knuckles instantly turned white as a soft crackling sound was heard from the television remote she was holding.
Behind the television screen, Giana could see the face of Aidan, who shamelessly announced their divorce, saying that he had known about Giana's affair for a long time and now they were in the process of divorce.
Aidan said all of this very convincingly, leading public opinion to sympathize with himself and further railing masses against Giana for her immoral actions.
Aidan had not only destroyed Giana's reputation and good name, but also destroyed the status of the Dawson family, in order to save his own name.
He was sorry?
Even if Aidan knelt down in front of Giana, it wouldn't be worth the damage Giana had to endure as a result of this press conference.
================
Ramon was sipping his coffee in the hotel cafeteria accompanied by Dr. Bram, who had absolutely no idea what it meant to be on this vacation with them…
As the Doctor said that Hailee was fine and there was no need to take him on their second honeymoon, but Ramon persisted and wouldn't let him go home.
"She looks drowsy all the time and she sleeps longer," Ramon commented.
"Yes, because her body is still adjusting and every pregnant woman has her own condition," Dr. Bram explained patiently and ate his sandwich.
Currently, Hailee was still sleeping soundly after several nights of insufficient sleep because of the cramps she had. After all, Hailee couldn't smell coffee, therefore as a coffee person, Ramon couldn't possibly call room service and order coffee to be brought to their room.
"But, there's nothing for you to worry about," Dr. Bram reassured Ramon. What's with this man? He didn't usually look nervous. Maybe, it's true when people said that having your first child could change you...
"Hm," Ramon muttered as he took another sip of his coffee, but then, his gaze focused on the two people who had just entered the cafeteria.
A man and a woman.
The female one, Ramon definitely recognized her because it was Lis, while the male one… Ramon didn't remember he had ever met the man before. Or maybe, they had met but Ramon didn't remember?
However, there were more pressing questions today; what was Lis doing at the hotel with a guy so early?
"Didn't you say you wanted to enjoy one of the ice creams at the cottage by the beach?" Ramon asked Dr. Bram, when he saw Lis and the man waiting for their order. They didn't seem to be enjoying their drinks here.
"You make it sound like I'm a ten-year-old," Dr. Bram complained, but then he stood up. "Okay, if you don't need me here anymore, then I'll enjoy my time. Think of it as a vacation for me too."
Having said that, Dr. Bram walked toward the cafeteria door which led directly to the beach while Lis and the stranger were near a different entrance, which led to the hotel.
From the start, Ramon kept staring at his mother and the man, trying to remember or catch every little movement Lis made when she was around him.
Lis smiled as the man whispered something into her ear and lightly smacked his arm, small gestures that a genius wouldn't need to know what it was all about.
Meanwhile, slowly, Ramon took out his cell phone and called Lexus.
It only took two dial tones before his brother answered the call and started nagging about the workload that was dumped on him.
"How long are you going to be on your honeymoon?" He babbled. "I know you are so excited about having a baby, but don't you feel sorry for this little brother of yours who works day and night to keep the company running and making a good profit?" Lexus started exaggerating his sentences, using a pitiful tone as he stared at the coffee cup in front of him.
Yes, Lexus was still at home and the work he had to deal with was actually not as much as he made it to be.
"Where is mother now?" Ramon asked, completely not paying attention to Lexus's begging for mercy, but asking straight to the point.
"Mother?" Lexus's brows furrowed. "Why are you suddenly asking mom?"
"Just answer me," Ramon said impatiently. He looked at Lis and the man who was taking their drinks order.
"Mom is in L city." Lexus tried to remember his mother's last errand he knew. "I've tried to call her many times, but she's not picking up. I think she's very busy, so I just left a message about Hailee's pregnancy news."
"What's going on in L city?" Ramon again ignored the additional information that Lexus had given him. He slowly stood up after leaving some bills on the table. "Do we have a project there?"
"Yeah, there's a small project we're working on over there…" Lexus tapped his hand, trying to remember. "Hey, I don't remember, if you want details on what project it is, give me ten minutes and I'll tell you the details."
"Okay, ten minutes it is." After that the phone line was cut off, leaving Lexus who could only stare in disbelief at his brother's treatment of him.
"Hey! Can't you give me a nice goodbye before hanging up the phone coldly?" He grumbled at the dial tone that could still be heard.
And of course Ramon couldn't hear the complaints anymore, because now he was following after Lis and her strange companion.
Lis seemed pretty sure that no one would recognize her after wearing a mask and hat, but Ramon had seen Lis in various outfits, so it was easy for him to recognize his mother right away.
Lexus said that Lis was now in city L, while this place was definitely not city L.
Why did Lis lie? Even if they were dating, why was it hidden? Ramon's father had died many years ago and Lis was free to decide her own life. Ramon couldn't stop thinking about this situation...
Could this be the secret Ramon told Giana? The secret that the woman knew? How far had Ramon investigated Lis?
"Find out what room they're staying in as well," Ramon said to David, as he watched the two get into the elevator. "Find out everything that has to do with that man."
