Chapter 105: STAY AWAY FROM HER
"Is it true?" Ramon snorted at that, with an unfriendly smile etched on his lips, the heir of the Tordoffs looked very dangerous now.
Hailee never knew that Ramon was this type of jealousy man, but whatever it was, she felt good that he saw this side to her and felt protected. After all, she had never been jealous before.
Well, if your only ex- boyfriend is Theodore Gevano, the same person, who had an affair with your sister, it was certain that this guy would never have any interest in Hailee.
No matter what the reason was.
However, what made Hailee feel confused now was; why was Theodore asking to have a conversation with her? Even to the point of apologizing, as if he really regretted what he had done. Was he jealous or displeased that Hailee had managed to find a much better man than himself?
"Yes, Mr. Tordoff, no worries," Theodore said. "Hailee couldn\'t possibly turn to another man."
Even though that was what Theodore said, it was clear that he was mocking Ramon by saying that. Not to mention the way he spoke, which indicated that there was a secret between him and Hailee.
What a jerk!
If only Ramon hadn\'t heard some of their conversation and didn\'t know Hailee very well, he would have thought of the worst.
Unfortunately, Ramon was not that stupid enough to get into the cheap trap Theodore threw at him.
With a smile, still on his lips, Ramon kissed Hailee on her forehead and after that he glared at Theodore. "Of course. If she got me, there was no way she would glance at another man. At least I know that her taste is amazing."
Hailee, who heard that, almost hung open her mouth with a stupid expression, if only Ramon didn\'t push her gently into the room, she would stay like that for a minute or two.
"Then, we will go in first. Good evening Mr. Gevano," Ramon said very politely and formally. This of course did not reflect the fact that they would soon be brothers- in- law.
Before entering the room, Hailee still had time to see the anger in Theodore\'s eyes which he was trying to cover up.
"Good evening, Mr. Tordoff." Theodore used the same tone and sentence to reply to Ramon.
But the Ramon didn\'t even glance at him again when he opened the door to Hailee\'s room and deliberately slammed the door very hard right in front of Theodore.
Even Hailee frowned in surprise, feeling sorry for the door which was not in the wrong whatsoever, but had to be slammed so hard by Ramon.
Outside of the door, Theodore gasped. It was totally unexpected that Ramon would show his displeasure so clearly.
It was certain that the two of them would not be on good terms.
However, Theodore did not have any intention of having a good relationship with Ramon either, so whatever that man did, it was good to show where they stood from the start.
"You don\'t have to slam the door so hard, do you?" Hailee looked at Ramon, who walked into her room and started to look at the room with a frown.
"So what?" Ramon asked in a casual tone, as if he had done nothing wrong.
"You can wake up the whole house," Hailee admonished him lightly.
"Nobody has slept yet," he replied.
And with that answer, Hailee could only sigh heavily. If she continued, there would be no end, so she preferred to save her energy by being silent.
"This room is small," Ramon grumbled.
Small?
Small your head! Hailee glared fiercely.
Hailee really wanted to scold this man in front of her. How could this guest room be called small?!
This room was even bigger than her room in the Tatum residence.
However, if one compared it to Ramon\'s room at the Tordoff residence, the size and taste of the selection of the furniture in the room was certainly very different.
"You can find a hotel if you don\'t wanna sleep here, after all, this is my room. Your room is next door." Hailee then walked past Ramon and into her room.
"Stay at a hotel?" Ramon snorted and poured some mineral water into the glass that had been placed on the table. "And let you reminisce with your ex- fiancé?"
Hailee rolled her eyes dramatically. "Seriously, you wouldn\'t think I would run into his arms when an opportunity arose, would you?"
"Whatever the reason." Ramon leaned back against a short table in the room and stared at Hailee, his serious face indicating that he meant it whatever he was going to say after this. "You have to know one thing Hailee; I can tolerate anything, but not an affair."
Had Ramon not been this serious, then Hailee would kindly have leveraged himself with Aidan Smith\'s wife, Giana.
How could Ramon say that while he was having an affair himself? Well, even though he didn\'t remember now. But, that didn\'t mean the affair didn\'t exist, right?
Actually, Ramon had been asking himself the same thing, how could he get involved in such a scandal with Giana? But, without his memories of the last four years, he couldn\'t possibly get any answers.
"Fine," Hailee said, knowing enough to read the situation and not making any comments about Giana. She didn\'t know what kind of angry expression Ramon would show, and Hailee had absolutely no interest in finding out. "But, you sure are confident enough to say that I will not glance at other men, once I have you."
Hailee tried to break the tense atmosphere between them by throwing light jokes.
"Is not that what you said a few days ago?" Ramon shrugged his shoulder. "I am just repeating what you said."
Correct.
Hailee forgot that she ever said that.
Ugh! This man ...
"Ehem!" Hailee cleared her throat, embarrassed to have been reminded by Ramon about her embarrassing words. "I am going to sleep, so you can go to your room now."
However, Ramon didn\'t listen and instead began to take off his clothes and get a towel to shower.
"What are you doing?" Hailee furrowed her brows in disbelief, seeing how Ramon casually walked into the bathroom half naked. "You can bathe in your own room."
And just like before, Ramon didn\'t listen and closed the bathroom door, making Hailee\'s complain went to deaf ears.
Meanwhile, Hailee, who was left alone with Ramon\'s clothes that he just discarded on the table, could only sigh and hang the clothes in the wardrobe.
==============
Theodore returned to his room to find Aileen still asleep, her body wrapped in a blanket and strands of hair covering part of her face.
Before this, Theodore had always felt happy whenever he found Aileen by his side, especially after what they had done a few hours ago, but he didn\'t feel that way now.
Maybe it was because the timing was not right, or it was because Theodore was feeling anxious and in a bad mood.
Seeing how happy Hailee was with Ramon and how that man treated her, made Theodore feel like a fool.
"Hm?" Aileen muttered sleepily as she felt Theodore\'s hand hugging her. Then with a sweet smile on her face, Aileen pressed herself against the man\'s body and fell back asleep.
On the other hand, Theodore looked at Aileen\'s face and began to think about the things that would happen between him and Aileen.
The first thing he had to face was of course the anger of his parents if they found out about this.
His mother still strongly disapproved his relationship with Aileen, but his father gave a sign that he did not have any problem with Aileen as his daughter- in- law, provided that Aileen would bring benefits to the Gevano family.
Especially the Tatum Jewelry\'s shares.
Initially, Theodore strongly opposed the idea, he was sure that what he had with Aileen was love and he didn\'t want any business interest in it.
However, after hearing that Aileen was pregnant with their child and seeing Hailee now, for some reason, he was no longer sure of that impulsive answer.
A child…
He will be a father ...
Is that what Theodore wanted now?
==============
"Hey, are you really going to sleep here?" Hailee stabbed Ramon\'s back with her index finger.
They were now sleeping on the same bed, because Ramon said he was lazy to change rooms.
"Hm," Ramon muttered.
"You can\'t sleep here. If Uncle Diego finds out, he will be furious." Hailee reminded him. "He is working in the military."
"You think he is going to shoot me?" Ramon asked, his eyes still closed and his back facing Hailee.
"Hm?" Hailee thought. "It won\'t go that far, though..."
"Then there\'s nothing to worry about," Ramon said in a light tone. Ignoring the irritated grunts of the girl sleeping beside him. "Besides, what are you afraid of? This isn\'t the first time we\'ve slept together."
It\'s true, but ...
"Hey, Ramon ... are you sleeping?" Hailee asked again, again stabbing the man in the back for attention.
"Yes."
"If so, how could you answer me?"
"..."
Annoyed, Ramon then turned around and found Hailee hiding under a blanket, so that only her head could be seen.
Seeing that sight, Ramon\'s irritated gaze softened.
"What do you want?" he asked.
"I just want to ask…" Hailee hesitated as she was about to say this.
"And the question is?" Ramon raised his eyebrows, waiting for Hailee\'s next words.
"You…" Hailee\'s voice became low as she remembered what she was about to ask. "What you said earlier..."
"What I said earlier?" Ramon frowned, not understanding what Hailee was trying to say. "What do you want to say?"
Hailee was now hiding half of her face under the blanket when she started asking her question. "You said you wanted to have children..."
There was silence after that, until Ramon spoke up.
"Then?" Ramon still didn\'t understand where Hailee wanted to take this conversation.
"You want to have children with me?" Hailee felt really embarrassed when she said this. "I don\'t know why I keep remembering your words."
"If not with you, then with whom would I have children?" Ramon lightly hit Hailee\'s head. "Do you want me to have a child with another woman?"
Hearing that, Hailee glared and removed the blanket. "What?! We are not even married yet and you are already thinking about impregnating another woman?"
Hailee then took a pillow and started hitting Ramon in annoyance.
However, luckily Ramon had good reflexes and caught the pillow and ambushed Hailee with ease.
Now, with her back on the bed, Hailee could see Ramon on top of her.
"Hailee… you brought up a dangerous topic in the middle of the night," Ramon spoke in husky tone.
