It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Seeing that sight, Aileen rushed out of her car and approached the flames. "What is this?" Aileen asked the two maids and one of the gardeners who were nearby. "Why are you guys burning something in front of the house?"

But, then there was something else that made Aileen even more surprised, namely when she recognized the items that were almost burnt out.

Those are her things!

"To repel pests like you." Someone answered Aileen's question.

==============

"Ramon, I want us to return to the Tatum residence," Hailee requested out of the blue before raising her head to look at Ramon resolutely. "I want to go back to the Tatum residence."

"Why? Will you be tired because the journey to city A is too long?" asked Ramon, he reached out his hand to brush the hair around Hailee's face aside and noticed that his wife's hair had grown longer.

"No…" Hailee shook her head and pondered for a moment. "I just wanted to go home for a bit," she mumbled, looking down to avoid Ramon's gaze.

And immediately Ramon understood what was on his wife's mind. "You miss home?"

"Yes yes." Hailee immediately nodded in agreement, looking back at Ramon with hopeful eyes. "We can, right?"

"Even though you know that Aileen lives there?" Ramon added.

Hailee grimaced when she heard him. Ugh. It's too hard to fool this man.

"The real reason you want to go home was because you want to settle scores with Aileen, right?" Ramon elaborated his words.

Hailee lowered her head further, then buried her face against Ramon's chest. "If so, are you going to stop me?" Hailee asked, her voice muffled against Ramon's chest.

And yet again she used her spoiled attitude to persuade Ramon. Because she knew from experience that this method almost never disappointed.

"I promise I will not do anything extreme," Hailee promised and suddenly raised her head to look at Ramon before pleading with teary eyes. "I also really miss home… this must be our child's wish… I am usually not this sentimental…"

Very nice. Now Hailee got one more weapon to use against Ramon...

Well, this isn't a bad idea, is it? Since this baby was in her womb, it meant they were a team.

"You are usually very sentimental," Ramon corrected Hailee's words.

"I swear I will not do anything dangerous," Hailee promised again. "You will be with me after all, there's no way you'd let this wife you love the most to get hurt, right?"

"The one I love the most?" Ramon raised his eyebrows. "I have no other choice, right? You are my only wife." Hailee laughed at that, but then her laughter seized when Ramon added. "Perhaps it takes another woman for a fair comparison?"

"Oh, say that one more time and I will tell our child when they grow up," Hailee threatened, which made Ramon pause while Pyro and David had to hold back their laughter.

This was a rare moment where Ramon lost an argument.

================

In the end, Ramon succumbed to Hailee's wishes and ordered David to turn back their car and head for the Tatum residence.

Once they got there, some of the welcoming maids were surprised since Hailee had left without any notice before, but from the expressions on their faces, they looked happy to see Hailee again.

Two of them immediately prepared Hailee's room and the other asked if there was anything Hailee wanted to eat.

But, for Hailee, only one thing concerned her.

"Where's Aileen?" she asked as soon as she sat down on the sofa, waiting for her room to be ready, taking a glass of her favorite mango juice that one of the maids had given her.

"Elder Miss isn't home, she left this afternoon and hasn't come back yet," one of the maids reported.

"So it's true that she returned to live in this house?" Hailee wanted to confirm this.

"Yeah, she's back a few days ago, carrying some suitcases containing her things."

"She's staying in her room?" asked Hailee again.

"That…" the maid seemed hesitant to tell Hailee the truth and this made her suspicious.

"It's okay, you can tell me," Hailee coaxed, while Ramon hugged her from the side while making a phone call, as if this man couldn't help but touch his wife even though he had other things to do.

"That… Aileen occupied your late parents' room…" said the middle-aged maid. She has been working for the Tatum family since Hailee was little, in fact almost all the maids in this house have worked for the Tatum family for more than ten years.

Therefore, Hailee knew them very well, like a family.

"She's staying in mom and dad's room?" Subconsciously, Hailee growled as she said those words.

How dare that shameless woman!?

"Then what about my father and mother's belongings?" Hailee asked again. She remembered telling them not to touch their belongings without her permission.

"We're sorry, but we moved your parents' things to the warehouse on Miss Aileen's orders." The maid's voice trembled as she told Hailee about this. "We don't know how to contact you."

Indeed, ever since Hailee's phone number changed, only a few people were aware, so they couldn't be blamed when it was Hailee who never thought of giving them her new number.

"She moved my parents' stuff to the warehouse…" Hailee hissed furiously, while Ramon rubbed her back as if to comfort her, while he was still talking quietly to someone on the phone.

Hailee was silent for a moment, before she finally gave an order. "Take out all of Aileen's belongings. Every single thing. Don't leave anything behind and heap them in the front yard."

Without questioning again, the two maids who were standing beside Hailee immediately carried out what they were told with the help of the other maid.

================

It just took less than twenty minutes to collect Aileen's belongings, which consisted of the latest branded items, but now they were no different from trash piled up on the dirty ground, while Hailee stood on the terrace of her house.

"All of Aileen's items have been brought out, so what are you going to do with them?" asked the maid.

"Burn," Hailee said coldly. "Burn all of that stuff."

"Burn?" The servant was surprised. "Everything?"

"Yes, everything," Hailee said firmly. "I don't want anything left."

This was the maid's first time seeing Hailee like this. She had known Hailee since the latter was just a child and all she knew was; Hailee is a cheerful child and loves her adopted sister, but Hailee's attitude this time is very different.

On the other hand, Pyro and David couldn't help but grin, they remembered well how Hailee had promised Ramon in the car earlier, that she wouldn't go to extremes. Isn't this going extreme…?

However, they also agreed with Mrs. Tordoff and for a moment, Hailee looked like the female version of Ramon. Maybe Mr. Tordoff had passed these qualities on to his wife…

Meanwhile, Ramon ordered David and Pyro to bring the sofa from inside the house, he wouldn't let his wife stand too long, even if it was to enjoy her own handiwork.
