It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Hailee was in the middle of a chat with Ian when she realized something was amiss. She then glanced at the bathroom where Zia was, not paying attention to the rest of Ian's words.

There was no sound or sign of Zia coming out and it had been too long for her cousin to use the bathroom, making Hailee suspicious in an instant.

"Ian," Hailee called, but her gaze never left the closed bathroom door.

"What is it?" Ian asked, cutting off his words.

"Wasn't Zia taking too long?" Hailee asked, her brow furrowed and she looked really worried.

Meanwhile, it didn't take long for Ian to realize what Hailee meant. He immediately stood up and rushed to the bathroom and knocked on the door with Hailee following behind.

"Zia, are you done?" Called Ian. "Hurry up, I want to use the bathroom too. My stomach hurts."

Ian's words received a meaningful look from Hailee, as if she was saying; you're really using that excuse...

This time, it was Hailee who knocked on the bathroom door. "Zia what are you doing? Hurry out."

No answer. There wasn't even any sound from inside.

"Zia?" this time Hailee knocked harder as fear and anxiety began to creep up in her heart.

"This isn't right," Ian muttered.

"Zia! Open the door!" Hailee screamed this time, she smacked her fist against the closed door, while her heart beat got louder and more painful as the thought of the worst possible scenario haunted her head.

"Back off Hailee, I'm going to call someone to ask for a spare key." Ian stopped Hailee's attempts to hit the door and asked her to wait while he looked for someone who could open the bathroom door.

While Ian was gone, Hailee tried to see what was going on in there. She lowered her head and settled herself in a prostrate position, trying to take a peek through the gap in the door.

At first, only the white floor was visible while Zia's figure was out of sight, but then Hailee saw something that made her hysterical.

Hailee's screams echoed through the walls of the room, her body shaking with fear as she watched the blood flow, a stark contrast to the white bathroom floor.

The blood came from the left side which Hailee knew was Zia's bathtub and she couldn't see it clearly from the gap under the door.

However, Hailee didn't need a clear view to know what was really going on in there.

Hailee didn't know how long she screamed, but when she stopped she could feel her throat burning and Hailee only stopped when Ramon hugged her tightly and Uncle Diego and Ian were around.

There was one more person in the room saying something, but Hailee couldn't hear clearly what that person was saying, or what Diego and Ian were shouting.

Hailee's body trembled with fear as Ramon picked her up and carried her out of Zia's room.

"No… I want to be there…" Hailee struggled to get out of Ramon's arms, she wanted to see what happened to Zia. Is she okay? How bad is it?

"You don't want to see her in this condition Hailee." However, Ramon didn't let her do that and kept his arms around Hailee until they were in different rooms and the noise from Zia's room could no longer be heard.

Ramon caught a glimpse of what was happening in the bathroom and could see Zia's condition, so he could decide that it wasn't a sight Hailee could face.

"Ramon…" Hailee sobbed, hugging Ramon's neck tightly and burying her face, trying to control her explosive emotions, while Ramon rubbed her back in a soothing motion. "Ramon..."

Hailee couldn't say anything more except calling his name, but it was enough for Ramon to understand what Hailee meant. What were the words she couldn't say…

"I'm here… calm down… everything will be fine…" Ramon whispered softly into Hailee's ear, kissed her hair and whispered some sweet words she wanted to hear.

Hailee cried until she felt her chest tighten, the sight of the blood on the bathroom floor was still clear in her mind.

"Blood… there's blood…" Hailee whimpered in a trembling voice.

"They're taking her to the hospital, Zia will be fine," said Ramon.

Hailee sobbed again as Ramon hugged her tighter. "I want to see Zia…"

"We'll go to the hospital when you're calmer." Ramon promised, because in a situation like this, there was no way he would stop her from going.

Aileen smacked the table with a bang when she saw an article about her in the mass media, replacing the commotion of the photo of Zia and Aidan.

Who else has done this if not Hailee? Because she was the one who started the whole fiasco of exposing Aileen's lies. No one else knew about this except Hailee.

Oh, the Gevano family wouldn't be able to expose their own disgrace like this, Aileen could guarantee that Rebecca wasn't that crazy to bring her down by humiliating her son.

B*tch! Aileen should have killed her along with her parents when she got the chance!

"You seem annoyed." Giana entered the VVIP room at a restaurant she had booked to meet Aileen.

Aileen's anger and hatred made her oblivious to her surroundings for a moment. She only noticed Giana when she was sitting in front of her.

"What is it? Something bad happened to you?" asked Giana in a worried tone, but what fool would believe that this woman was worried about anyone but herself? And who would believe that Giana didn't know about the news that was hitting her?

"Looks like you brought bad luck," Aileen snorted. In her anger she no longer wanted to pretend to be polite, after all they were both in the same boat.

"You mean, my divorce got you divorced too because you were in cahoots with me?" Giana wasn't offended at all by Aileen's harsh words. It was not much to be honest. If she had to mind all the harsh words and take them to heart, then there would be no way she would reach her current position.

Because for people like them, mastering one's own emotions and responses to others is very important.

Aileen still has a lot to learn to be at the same level as Giana.

"Don't flatter me like that, I parted ways with Aidan because he was an asshole, so if you end up separating from Theodore because of me, isn't that something you should celebrate? Because I'm celebrating my divorce."
