Chapter 61: MY FUTURE HUSBAND COMES TO PICK ME UP
Hailee couldn\'t believe she was caught in a situation like this again. All this was thanks to Aileen, because that stepsister of hers managed to find someone as persistent and vengeful as Roland Dimatrio.
"If you dare touch me, Ramon won\'t stay silent!" exclaimed Hailee. She looked around the room and tried to find something she could use as a weapon, unfortunately, she had been searching since she was put in this room and found nothing.
Meanwhile, hearing Hailee\'s words Roland burst out laughing, he seemed to think Hailee\'s words were the funniest things he had ever heard in all these days.
"You think you\'re worthy enough of someone like Ramon?" Roland asked in a mocking tone. He then took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it with a lighter, which he got from a nearby drawer.
Hailee cursed because she didn\'t go through the drawers. She could have found some scissors, nails, hammer, saw or even a knife there... she thought sarcastically.
"Why don\'t you try calling Ramon to find out how much I mean to him?" Hailee asked with a worried heart. "He will give you double the money you gave Aileen to get me." Actually, Hailee wasn\'t sure of this, nor did she know how much money Roland had spent buying Hailee from Aileen.
When Aileen\'s name flashed in her mind, Hailee couldn\'t help but grit her teeth and feel her blood boil with anger.
"You? Valuable for Ramon?" asked Roland with a snort, then he sniffed the tobacco he was holding between his fat fingers deeply. "You think I\'d believe you?"
"You saw it, didn\'t you? The sudden press conference that Ramon held a few days ago, which said that we were getting married. You think he doesn\'t think of me as someone important to him? If I\'m not important, you think he wants to marry me?" Under these circumstances, Hailee really wanted to thank and kiss Ramon for announcing their marriage, even though Hailee was against it.
Now, she could see how important that announcement was.
Hold on ...
If at that time Ramon had found out Hailee\'s real identity and instead announced their marriage in public, wouldn\'t that mean Ramon already knew about her problem with Roland Dimatrio and wanted to protect her?
Or was she thinking too far?
The thought alone made Hailee feel like a giddy teenager, regardless of her current situation.
"The press conference was just a show, right?" said Roland, asking a rhetorical question to the girl before him.
"You think, someone like Ramon is as easy to trick, just like you who could be fooled around by Aileen?" Hailee asked, feeling satisfied when she saw the tinge of anger that crossed Roland\'s eyes as she said that. "He loves me, of course he will marry me."
"Don\'t be kidding," Roland blew white smoke into the air. "You didn\'t even know each other before the accident, where you lied that you were his fiancé."
Hailee should have anticipated this, not only had Ramon been investigating into her background, but Roland had done the same.
What\'s with these influential people? Do they really enjoy finding out personal details about other people? Using their power for trivial things like this?
Well, maybe this wasn\'t as insignificant as Hailee thought ...
"You think I don\'t know Ramon has amnesia? You must have lied to him by saying that you are his lover, right? I don\'t know what you said, until he agreed to marry you." Roland could see surprise crossing Hailee\'s face and interpreted it as fear.
However, what Hailee was thinking right now was not the same as what the district attorney assumed. Hailee\'s surprise was that he had guessed it so well. Is he some psychic?
Of course if Roland had said this a few days ago before the chat between Hailee and Ramon which took place in the latter\'s study, Hailee would have been very panicked and even terrified, but not now.
"What do you think he will do if I expose this lie of yours?" Roland asked. This was what made the district attorney so brave to keep Hailee there and so sure that Ramon would not do anything to him for taking this little con woman.
"Just say it," said Hailee, folding her arms across her chest. "Just tell him what you think you know. Why don\'t we just call him now?"
Just at that moment, someone knocked on the door, interrupting the chatter of Roland and Hailee which seemed to have reached a climax.
"What?!" cried Roland angrily because his line of thought had been interrupted.
"Sir, someone named Ramon Tordoff said he wanted to see you," said the man behind the locked door and Hailee recognized his voice as Alex\'s.
"Did you hear that? My future husband came to find me." Hailee tilted her head, looking at Roland with a triumphant look on her face.
Hailee didn\'t know how Ramon could find her, this was a question Hailee forgot to ask when Ramon also managed to find her after escaping from the bar, in a park miles away.
But, whatever method Ramon used, there was only one thing Hailee wanted to do now; hug him for being so smart and moving so fast to find her.
Ah, it seemed like it\'s so easy to love this man ...
"Why are you silent? Meet him. Aren\'t you impatient to reveal my secret? After all, you have kidnapped his future beloved wife," Hailee said in an exaggerated tone.
Right at that moment, Roland felt that something was wrong… Hailee was so calm for someone who was lying. Had his judgment been wrong all along?
==============
Just as Ramon had expected, the people who had taken Hailee away were Roland Dimatrio\'s men.
Based on the CCTV around the cafeteria, Ramon knew that Hailee had just been taken away by strangers.
And the fact that Hailee was in one of Roland Dimatrio\'s residences, only confirmed Ramon\'s conjecture.
From inside the car, he could see how the tall gate protecting Roland\'s house opened and revealed a building which was quite magnificent, although it would not be comparable to that of the Tordoffs.
Of course Roland would let him in after hearing who it was, the Tordoff surname was not to be taken lightly…
Meanwhile, Ramon could only exhale in annoyance that he had to cancel his meeting because of this problem.
