Chapter 142: HONEYMOON
Hailee didn\'t know where she was. This place seemed so strange that she felt she had never been in this place before.
Hailee couldn\'t recognize any familiar faces among the people passing by her either.
Not to mention the fact that made her even more confused, that she didn\'t even remember how she ended up in this place...
Where is this?
Hailee glanced left and right, trying to find a familiar figure or any clue that could lead to something familiar.
However, no matter how hard Hailee tried, she still couldn\'t remember anything.
She was now standing in front of a busy shop, on a side street that was not too crowded with vehicles.
Everyone who passed her, were all in pairs and only Hailee was standing there looking around. Her eyes were frantic looking for a sign that could tell her where she was.
And just like before, her efforts were completely unsuccessful and Hailee could not help but remain silent, frozen where she stood until the traffic lights beside her turned red and all the vehicles stopped behind the white line, to allow pedestrians to cross the road.
Above her the sky looked dull with the color of blue and white clouds, though the light from the sun was not really bright, but Hailee felt uncomfortable.
Not many pedestrians were waiting to cross the road, but there was one pair that stunned Hailee, because she recognized them.
Ramon and Giana. The two of them were walking while holding hands, and Ramon smiled affectionately at the woman beside him, who also reciprocated with the same smile.
Not only that, Giana even tiptoed and whispered something in Ramon\'s ear and made the man laugh. The kind of laugh that would be hard for one to forget, because it was so charming that Ramon rarely showed it.
Only, this time Ramon actually laughed and the laugh was aimed at Giana, not Hailee.
On the other hand, Hailee couldn\'t help but stare stunned as Giana walked past her and looked at her sarcastically, smiling provocatively as she leaned her head on Ramon\'s shoulder while the two of them walked past Hailee.
Hailee could only stand shocked there. All words got stuck in her throat suddenly, making Hailee felt choked.
Especially when she saw how Ramon just walked past her, as if he didn\'t know Hailee.
But, how come? Aren\'t they married? Hailee is Mrs. Tordoff and Ramon couldn\'t possibly forget their incredible wedding party already, could he?
Hailee shook her head, trying to get rid of all the questions crammed in her head, it was just that she couldn\'t just get rid of it.
"Ramon?" Hailee called out his name with difficulty. She felt like she was drowning and running out of air, unable to ask for help.
It\'s just that the call didn\'t seem loud enough to make the man stop and give Hailee a chance to talk.
However, it was Giana who turned around and looked at Hailee with a triumphant smile beautifully curled on her red lips.
Giana\'s red lips then moved, forming a voiceless sentence, which Hailee could strangely hear clearly, as if Giana was standing beside her and whispered those words.
\'You are indeed Mrs. Tordoff and very proud to be married to him, but Ramon\'s heart will always be mine.\'
That\'s more or less what Giana told Hailee and made her heart beat so fast, as if it was going to explode into a million pieces, until her body trembled.
Hailee\'s body was shaking and she was whimpering in a muffled voice, asking for an end to this.
It is just that, instead of ending, Hailee actually heard Ramon\'s voice calling out her name in a persuasive tone.
"Hailee, wake up ... we are here ..."
Ramon\'s voice was close and Hailee could feel his body very close, but didn\'t Ramon have gone away with Giana and left her alone?
"Hailee ... how long do you want to sleep?"
"Hm?" Hailee blinked her eyes groggily and found Ramon\'s face so close to hers. "Where is this?"
Hailee rubbed her face roughly and immediately surveyed her surroundings. She was now in a room with Ramon sitting next to her. An airplane cabin.
"I think I should carry you out of here," said Ramon as he un- did the seat belt he had attached to his wife.
Hailee was out cold, and Ramon didn\'t have the heart to wake her up when the plane was about to land. Thus, he put the seat belt on carefully so that Hailee wouldn\'t wake up.
It was just that, Hailee was fast asleep and she didn\'t even wake up after ten minutes of Ramon trying to make her realize that they had arrived at their honeymoon destination.
"Where are we?" Hailee wiped her face again, while Ramon watched his wife suddenly look a little confused after an hour of sleep.
Ramon could understand, because despite her enthusiasm, she looked tired after going through their long wedding and facing hundreds of guests invited by Lis, almost all of whom Hailee didn\'t know.
Pretending to smile at people you were meeting for the first time could be absolutely draining, both emotionally and physically.
"We have arrived, you slept very soundly," said Ramon. He then reached out his hand to tidy up the baby strands that covering Hailee\'s forehead and made her look cute.
"I had a strange dream," Hailee grumbled indistinctly between her yawns.
"Dream?" Ramon then rose to his feet and stretched out his hand for Hailee, as if this was a natural thing they always did; hand in hand. "What dream was it?"
"I dreamed that you were having an affair and walking with your mistress in front of me!" Hailee\'s voice became a little bit louder because of the sound of the wind being so strong. She clutched the black jacket that Ramon had given her tighter.
The bride and groom then got out of the cabin and down the airstairs.
"Walking in front of you?" Ramon grabbed Hailee\'s waist tighter and walked more slowly, to keep up with his wife\'s steps. "It was just a dream," commented Ramon dryly.
"It was just a dream, but the fact that I dreamed of you having an affair can\'t just be ignored," Hailee pouted. It seemed that the bubble of happiness that she had been feeling since their wedding vow, threatened to be burst open this time.
"Why am I that stupid to bring my affair in front of you?" Ramon then kissed the top of Hailee\'s head and the two of them walked toward a red sports car that was waiting for them there. "If I want to cheat, of course I will do it behind your back."
Hailee glared at Ramon\'s comment and started beating him with all her might.
"You said yourself that you will take this marriage with utmost seriousness!" Hailee exclaimed while starting to pinch on Ramon\'s body anywhere she could reach, but the man swiftly dodged and started half running toward their car, to avoid Hailee\'s attacks while laughing.
If someone who knew Ramon saw this kind of scene, they would never believe their eyes that Ramon Tordoff could be playful as well.
"Which fool takes her dream so seriously?" Ramon then received the keys to the red sports car from a man who was dressed neatly and nodded at him respectfully as he got out of the car.
"No way! Did you just say I am stupid?" Hailee caught Ramon and hit him on the back again, but before Hailee could land a second punch on his shoulder, Ramon had already caught her hand and smiled knowingly at the girl.
"You can hit me later to your heart\'s content, but not now and not in this place," Ramon whispered with a double meaning in his sentence, which sounded very sexy in Hailee\'s ears and made the girl\'s anger immediately subside. Her face flushed again and this was one of the things Ramon liked when he managed to make her blush.
"Stop saying sentences with double meanings like that," Hailee hissed at Ramon, while her eyes fixed on the man.
"What is a word with dual meaning?" Suddenly Ramon pulled Hailee closer and squeezed her into the car, leaving the girl unable to move, biting her red lips in annoyance.
"Whatever you say," Hailee exclaimed in a low voice.
Ugh! Even her own voice betrayed her!
Hailee was very upset at being embarrassed like this and it was certain that the warm blush on her face had betrayed her and told Ramon what she was thinking.
"Very well, although I don\'t understand what you mean, but we should immediately leave from this place to a more comfortable place." Ramon gaveher his half smile Hailee likes and opened the car door for himself. "You seem to be getting uncomfortable in that dress."
Hailee looked down while assessing her pretty dress. This dress was actually very comfortable to wear, but that doesn\'t mean Hailee prefers to wear this dress than pajamas for her sleep.
And just like what Ramon said, Hailee started to feel like taking off the dress.
"Yes, this dress is starting to feel uncomfortable," Hailee muttered softly, agreeing to what Ramon had been saying and making the man lower his head to whisper something into his grumbling wife\'s ear. "Let\'s go, I want to change clothes."
"Don\'t worry, I will help you take off that dress later," Ramon said as he landed a soft kiss on Hailee\'s neck and made her tremble, not because of the cold, but from something churning in her stomach and making this dress even more uncomfortable to wear.
