Chapter 82: HAILEE IS RAMON\'S
"Ah, about that…" Hailee just remembered that she hadn\'t said anything about this to Lis. "The plan is, this weekend Ramon and I will visit my family."
"The Tatum family," Lis said. She already knew where Hailee was from and did some background check and found some irregularities there, it\'s just that Lis didn\'t want to spoil what Hailee and Ramon had planned and was waiting for them to explain this on their own.
No, Lis expected Hailee to explain this, because it was certain that Ramon would not say anything and if Lis asked the wrong question, this would actually trigger an argument with Ramon like before, therefore, she chose to shut up, while learning more about her future daughter-in-law.
"Ah, yes..." Hailee was a little surprised because Lis knew about her family. But, after a while she realized that given their status, it was impossible to cover this up, it\'s just that for some reason Hailee was not in a state of wanting to explain about her family.
If Lis knew about her family, it meant that she probably heard rumors about her engagement to the first son of the Gevano family, Theodore Gevano, too.
And what if Lis found other information that Hailee didn\'t expect?
It was all too complicated to pin down and Hailee didn\'t want to start this with lies. Seeing how Ramon revealed Roland Dimatrio\'s secrets in no time, it wouldn\'t be surprising if Lis would later ask questions that Hailee didn\'t expect.
"Yes, I\'m from the Tatum family," Hailee said, staring at Lis with a waiting gaze, waiting for what this woman would ask.
On the other hand, Lis could see the anxiety in Hailee\'s eyes, this young girl seemed reluctant to continue any further talks about her family and it was clear from the look on her face and eyes.
Lis could have immediately asked about Theodore Gevano and expressed her suspicion, whether it was because of this man Ramon kept his relationship with Hailee a secret for two years or not, even though it sounded too absurd, why his son had a relationship with an engaged young woman like Hailee.
However, seeing Hailee\'s reluctance, Lis smiled understandingly.
"Just tell Tania, the people you will invite before next Monday," said Lis and she could see Hailee sighing in relief.
"Alright... thanks mother," Hailee replied happily.
"You didn\'t tell Ramon that today is the day you are going for your wedding dress fitting?" Lis asked, changing the topic so that Hailee could relax more around her. Not that Lis would just let this pass, but she didn\'t feel like this was the right time for that.
What\'s more, until now Hailee had never done anything wrong. In Lis eyes right now, Hailee was a cute girl who grew up from a good family, and that\'s enough.
"I told Ramon, but he said; what\'s there to see? I\'ll see it on the wedding day too," Hailee complained to Lis and smiled a little when she saw Lis\'s annoyed face.
"That child ..." Lis grumbled. "Really unreliable ..."
Seeing the annoyed Lis, Hailee then told the other annoying words that Ramon said about why he couldn\'t come today and Hailee was quite happy that her annoyance was reflected in her future mother in law.
==============
Hailee would be wearing a total of three dresses at the wedding, and they were all designed by Margaretha Lamos, so you could imagine how much money Ramon would have to spend on just three dresses.
However, it seemed that for the Tordoffs, who even breathed money, it was no big deal.
Ugh!
Should Hailee be grateful for the trouble Aileen caused her, which eventually led her to become Ramon Tordoff\'s wife? Maybe this was what they called; blessing in disguise.
Since wedding dresses were always complicated, Hailee would try it last, for now, she was trying on a white evening gown with swarowsky stones sprinkled on her belt.
"Why isn\'t Ramon here yet?" Margaretha approached Lis and sat next to her, looking at Hailee who was trying on her dress.
Hailee looked beautiful, even without any make up, with her long hair flowing down her back gave off a natural impression.
Even Margaretha, who rarely praised others, said that Hailee was extraordinary, if only she was not Ramon Tordoff\'s future wife, it was certain that she would have asked Hailee to be her model for one of her new arrivals in her fashion show in two months.
It\'s just that, knowing Lis and Ramon\'s nature, they would definitely not agree.
"That kid is complicated..." Lis grumbled, while taking out her cellphone and taking a photo of Hailee who was smiling, saying something to one of Margaretha\'s staff.
After getting the photo that Lis wanted, she sent it to someone, meanwhile, Margaretha who was sitting beside her could clearly see the recipient of the photo.
"Why are you sending Hailee\'s photo to Lexus instead of Ramon?" Margaretha asked, frowning.
"If I send this photo directly to Ramon, it is certain that he will not respond," said Lis with a wicked smile.
"So you will ask Lexus to persuade him?" Margaretha raised her eyebrows, she didn\'t know that Lis could be so cunning that she used her child like this too.
"Because Ramon sometimes listens to his talkative little brother more than me, his mother." Lis then called Lexus.
==============
Lexus was in his room, staring at the seemingly endless pile of documents, when he heard the sound of a ringtone, indicating an incoming call.
Seeing who the caller was, Lexus\'s face turned grim. "Yes?" said Lexus.
From the other side, Lis started asking, "Are you in the office?"
"Yes, immersed in a pile of work." Lexus was deliberately exaggerating his answer, which was reward by a scolding from his mother. "What\'s wrong mom?" cut Lexus.
"I sent you a photo, take a look," said Lis.
"Photo? Photos of girls?" Lexus\' voice suddenly became defensive. "Geez! I can find a woman for myself, no need to do it this way..."
And this time it was Lis that cut off Lexus\'s words.
"That\'s not for you! That\'s Hailee\'s photo. Have you received the photo?" Lis asked immediately.
"Hailee?" Lexus stared at his cellphone screen confusedly, there was an incoming message and he found a photo of Hailee wearing a white dress. "You forgot, didn\'t you? Hailee is Ramon\'s future wife, not mine," Lexus protested.
And across the line, Lis could only facepalm herself.
