It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

The flashing headlights of the cars on the dark street gave off a calm and cool feel, especially since it had just rained.

In a yellow car, Chad was heading to the place where Ramon was holding Leon captive, to free his boss.

This could be achieved because they had their own man infiltrate Ramon's security stationed there, none other than a subordinate of Axcel Dimatrio.

Yes, the men who betrayed and took Hailee away from the Tordoff residence were actually Axcel Dimatrio's, and the man had been planning for quite a while. Precisely, right after Ramon destroyed Dimatrio's career and family name by throwing his father in prison.

Only, Axcel wasn't a good planner and he didn't really know what to do after getting his men mixed with Ramon's guards.

And what was more, Axcel was not a risk taker and too cowardly to do big things.

Therefore, Leon took advantage of this and invited him to join him, just like he did with Aileen.

Knowing what Axcel had done and the crucial positions of his men in Ramon's security, of course it was a piece of cake for Leon to execute his own plan.

And in the same way, Chad was able to get the exact location where Ramon had hidden Leon.

Now, Chad was looking at a three-story building, which was one of the branch offices of the Tordoff company, and was currently under siege by the police because of an alleged kidnapping case.

This was also Leon's idea, and also one of his ways to reintroduce himself to the outside world.

Had he not been forgotten after his name was removed from the Dawson family register? Many people from the Dawson family circle didn't even remember his name anymore. As if he was not an important person to remember or his presence was just a mere trivial thing.

And now, not only the police, but also the journalists were crowding the place. They couldn't believe that one of the Tordoff family's office buildings was being used to hold someone captive.

Of course, this news would be huge and if not handled properly, then Ramon's reputation would be in smithereens later.

Across the street, Chad could see Leon being carried by two policemen into an ambulance. Their gazes met for a moment and Chad nodded at Leon as a greeting.

This news would certainly suppress the hype of infidelity and divorce issues between Giana and Aidan.

"We're leaving now," Chad said as he got into the car and the ambulance door was closed, carrying Leon away from the building.

The glow of the street lamps lit up the crowd of reporters still hounding for more information on what was really going on in there.

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

Lis brought a bowl of hot soup to Ramon and tried to carefully persuade her son to eat something, because Ramon had not touched any drink or food since last night and now it was already morning.

"Ramon, you need to eat something," said Lis timidly. She didn't dare look at her son, but it was impossible for her to just leave him be and close her eyes while Ramon was torturing himself right now. "You haven't eaten anything since last night."

No response or acknowledgement.

Lis then put the soup bowl on the nearest table and touched Ramon's shoulder, and immediately his son's shoulders tensed, as if he didn't want to be touched by her. This is so painful…

"Ramon..." Lis said, but then Ramon shook her hand off of his shoulder, though not in a rude way, but this only confirmed that Ramon didn't want to be touched by her. "I know how you feel..."

And as if those words were the trigger for Ramon, Lis finally got what she wanted.

Ramon turned and stood, so tall Lis had to lift her head to see her son's face.

However, she didn't need to do so for long, because there was something in Ramon's eyes that scared Lis to look at him any longer.

"You don't know how I feel," said Ramon without emotion. It was as if he was reading a text when he said that. "So don't ever say you know how it feels."

Hearing those words, Lis's tears fell down her cheeks again, but that also couldn't make Ramon warm up to her.

"I didn't know Leon could do that… I didn't know the plan…" Lis sobbed, but then Ramon cut her off.

"I don't want to hear that." Ramon then glanced at Hailee, as if he was afraid that he might miss the first moment his wife opened her eyes. "If you want to help me, please don't be around me."

Meaning, Ramon didn't want to see Lis at all right now. Because by seeing his mother, of course it would remind Ramon that all this happened because of the man Lis liked, the father of Lexus.

Ramon didn't want to hate either of them, but his emotions were unstable right now and he needed someone else to blame, because if he had to put all the blame on himself, then Ramon wasn't sure he would be able to get through this.

This feeling was so heavy and excruciating. He needed an outlet…

"At least for now," Ramon added so that it wouldn't sound too cruel.

Lis then wiped her tears and nodded. "I understand," she said in a firmer voice. She then turned to get her bag and jacket and looked at Ramon with an apologetic look. "Don't forget to take care of your health."

After saying that, Lis walked out of the room with unsteady steps, she held back her tears and tried to understand the situation her son was in.

After Lis's departure, the atmosphere in the room calmed down again, but it didn't last long, because a few minutes later, Ian knocked on the door and entered the room without waiting for Ramon's approval.

"I didn't want to bother you," Ian said.

"You've already done so," Ramon replied, not looking at Ian at all.

Ian then glanced at Hailee who was still lying unconscious, while the light of the morning sun shone on her face.

"Yes, I think so too. But, I want you to see this." Ian then took out a cell phone from his pocket. "This is Axcel Dimatrio's cell phone."
