Chapter 60: YOU CAN DO ANYTHING TO HER
Chapter 60: YOU CAN DO ANYTHING TO HER
A heavy slap landed on Hailee\'s cheek and sent her head spinning. The intense pain forced Hailee to curl her lips hard to prevent herself from screaming in pain.
Hailee didn\'t want to give Aileen that satisfaction, letting the latter see that she had succeeded once again, in hurting her.
"You think you can slap me carelessly?! You are no longer part of the Tatum family! You know that?!" exclaimed Aileen. "I am the heir of our parents! And don\'t you ever say Theo\'s name with your mouth!"
Hailee didn\'t give any reaction when Aileen bashed her like that, but once she had finished screaming and was panting to control her emotions, Hailee lifted her head and Aileen saw a look she had never seen on Hailee\'s face before.
It was a gaze full of hatred, very cold and filled with rage, and if Alex loosened his grip on Hailee\'s hand, then this girl would pounce on Aileen without a second thought, brutally lunging at her.
For some reason Aileen didn\'t understand, she was starting to feel her heart racing faster.
What\'s all this about? Why did Hailee, who always seemed carefree and easy to sympathize with, have such cruel eyes?
"The heir of our parents? You?" Hailee didn\'t hide the scorn in her voice at all when she said that. "Are you sure that you are part of the Tatum family?" Hailee asked, staring sarcastically at Aileen from head to toe. "Everyone also knows that you are just an adopted child in my family."
Anger rippled through Aileen\'s veins and Hailee\'s words whizzed painfully against her ears. Everyone always tried not to say that fact directly in front of her face, but no matter what, no one could prevent them from whispering behind her back.
And when Hailee said it so plainly, Aileen felt an impulsive urge to tell her what had happened! The real truth.
But, a hand that tapped her back brought Aileen back, out of that thought.
Don\'t be stupid… it\'s not time yet… thought Aileen to herself.
"There\'s no need to get too carried away with emotions," said Roland in his voice that was slightly hoarse and disgusting. "Now that she\'s here, I think the problem between us is over."
Aileen glanced at the old district attorney beside her with a very cynical gaze, but then she sighed to regulate her emotions and tried to smile, even though it looked stiff and forced.
"Yes, I suppose so," Aileen said stiffly. "May I know what will you do to her?" she asked curiously. They both knew that Ramon had announced his marriage to Hailee and this worried Aileen about her plan to get rid of Hailee.
"You don\'t have to think about it, I\'ll take care of Ramon Tordoff." Roland patted Aileen\'s shoulder again and rubbed it, making her slightly uncomfortable with the old man\'s touch.
"Handling whom?" Hailee asked with a cute smile on her face, although now the side of her cheek that Aileen slapped earlier looked much swollen, but that didn\'t reduce her attractiveness at all. "Did you mean it when you said you could handle Ramon Tordoff?" Hailee asked.
She herself didn\'t know what she\'s saying, it\'s just that Hailee knew her worth in Ramon\'s eyes right now. That man would lose a big business if he lost Hailee, so there was no way that Ramon would just keep quiet seeing his future wife being treated like this, right?
"SHUT UP!" Roland snapped fiercely. "I\'m still not done with you! We will calculate every single thing that you did last time to me!" the district attorney could still feel the shards of glass slicing through his skin. He sure was on the verge of death because of this girl!
Therefore, Roland would treat her the same. She too had to go through the same experiences that Roland had to endure.
"Take her to the room!" cried Roland angrily.
Meanwhile, Aileen stared in satisfaction at her step sister who was trying to escape Alex\'s grasp in despair.
Aileen even had time to wave her hand at Hailee, as if saying goodbye.
Only after Hailee could no longer be seen did Aileen turn her gaze to Roland Dimatrio. "Then, I\'ll be going, have fun," she said in a calm tone, although it was obvious that Aileen was trying to avoid the old man, who was staring at her with interest.
You immoral old Bastard! Aileen grumbled inwardly as she walked away, leaving Hailee in the hands of Roland Dimatrio.
She didn\'t know what Roland would do to her, but Aileen didn\'t care, as long as Hailee never appeared in front of her again, that\'s enough for Aileen to carry out her next plan.
==============
"Who is the person in Hailee\'s circle who owns a property in this area?" asked Ramon, pointing at the final location where Hailee was no longer moving. It seemed, whoever brought Hailee, had achieved their final destination.
Danny took Ramon\'s cell phone and checked the address, matching it to the other residences of the Hailee family, but nothing matched.
The address of that place was also not a remote place, to be more precise, it was an elite residence in the city of R.
"None of the Hailee family members owns property in this area, there are two people who have a vacation house in the city of R, it\'s just that it is so far from where Hailee is." Danny notified Ramon after he had searched for some time.
For a moment Ramon did not give any response. Now he and the point where Hailee stopped, were about an hour and a half apart and anything could happen in that time.
"Find out what properties Roland Dimatrio owns." If Ramon\'s guess was right, then that bastard was really looking for trouble with him.
==============
Hailee stared around the room where she was locked up. This room seemed to be specially modified for her; no windows, no vases, no display items that Hailee could use as a weapon…
It seemed that Roland was a little traumatized by their last encounter and that was great.
Hailee didn\'t got long time to observe the surroundings and find a useful tool for self-protection, because she soon heard approaching footsteps and not long after, Roland entered the room.
"Have you been waiting long?" he asked.
"I can wait all my life if that\'s what it takes not to meet someone like you," Hailee replied fiercely.
