Chapter 362: I HOPE YOU LIKE IT
"I told you not to touch them!" Lis clenched her jaw as she rebuked him. Her voice sounded more like someone who was hissing. Her eyes burned with fury. The same was evident from how she tried to ward off Leon\'s hand that held onto hers tightly. "Do not touch me."
Lis didn\'t want to be caught on camera with Leon. She didn\'t want to cause anymore trouble for her sons, but also didn\'t want to provoke Leon, because she knew how unpredictably the man in front of her could act.
Leon might make this issue public if necessary and Lis didn\'t want that to happen.
This man was crazy if he thought Lis would still want to be with him after what he had done to Ramon and Hailee.
"Where are you going?!" Leon exclaimed. He tried to stop Lis from leaving and to calm her down, but in vain, because he saw the determination in her eyes. Lis didn\'t want to have anything to do with him anymore. "Was it Lucas\' son who wanted to send you away? He\'s the one who forced you to leave this country, right?"
Liz narrowed her eyes. "You\'re still blaming Ramon? Are you targeting him?"
"Everything that happened was his fault," Leon argued. His grip on Lis\'s arm tightened as he looked at her intently. "You don\'t have to go anywhere. You will be coming with me. You don\'t have to worry about Lucas\' son."
"What are you going to do to him?" Liz asked. She looked at Leon suspiciously. "You won\'t fight him, Leon…" she could even see that herself.
How Ramon had a look of determination, just like the look in his father\'s eyes. Ramon looked so scary when he was like that.
"I will fight Lis, and I will get Lexus back." It sounded like a promise to Lis\' ears. It was as if Leon would dedicate his entire life to achieving that goal.
And nothing was more terrifying than a man who was determined to do something.
"You won\'t get anyone back." Lis shook her head when she saw Leon\'s madness. "Don\'t you realize now that Lexus doesn\'t at all like the fact that you\'re his father."
Leon laughed at this and Lis felt like she didn\'t want to talk to the man in front of her anymore.
What Leon had done to Ramon and Hailee was far more hurtful to her as a mother, than having to leave the man she loved as a woman.
Lis didn\'t understand what made Leon so ambitious to bring down Ramon.
Many a time, they had discussed her plan of introducing Leon to Lexus slowly and tell their son what actually had happened, to make him understand. Things then would have gone much more calmly than the path Leon had chosen.
"I don\'t have anything to tell you," Lis said quietly, then stepped away from Leon and this time he didn\'t stop her anymore.
"I\'ll look for you Liz. I will look for you with our child and then, you will realize that your judgment all this time was inaccurate."
Lis didn\'t turn her head when she heard Leon\'s final words, she didn\'t turn her head because she didn\'t want him to see her cry, because after all, Leon was the man who her heart was filled with...
And it\'s so hard to walk away from the man you actually still love...
================
Ian came just as Aidan was trying to make Zia listen by holding her hand tightly.
"Do not touch me!" Zia shrieked, trying to press the emergency button, but Aidan held her hand, locking it in place so she wouldn\'t move around recklessly.
Aidan didn\'t understand why Zia was still in the hospital even though she looked fine. Her wound was healed now.
However, he thought there might be a wound he didn\'t see. And of course there was another wound, but it was in Zia\'s heart.
Zia didn\'t expect that Aidan would only come to see her after a few weeks had passed.
How could Aidan meet her after so long? And even if Zia didn\'t have her cell phone, she was very sure that Aidan could find her whereabouts easily.
Just like now...
But, he only came to see her after quite some time had passed? What if something happened to Zia? What if she died trying to kill herself? And what if the Tordoff and Dawson family troubles and the rumors behind Lexus Tordoff\'s dating life didn\'t push the scandal involving herself and Aidan out of limelight?
And this man only met her now?
Zia wanted to laugh hysterically at the thought of her pitiful self, especially when she heard Aidan\'s excuse.
"I have a lot of things to take care of. Please understand Zia," Aidan said with his voice sounding tired, as if he had just been through all the troubles in the world.
"And I\'m not your priority, am I?" asked Zia fiercely. She couldn\'t accept this.
Zia wondered, even if they were together, would she have to spend her life understanding Aidan endlessly?
In the past, she wasn\'t a priority because Aidan married Giana, and now she was not a priority because of his hectic work?
"Zia don\'t say that, you know very well what I mean," Aidan pleaded with Zia, he could see the cold eyes of the woman in front of him.
And just at that moment someone opened the door, it was Ian.
It was very clear that the message Zia sent and the short call she made had woken the man up. He looked like a mummy who just woke up from his coffin…
"What are you doing here?" Ian inquired, without saying much. "Get out of this room."
Ian\'s mood was not good, his head felt dizzy by the time he came to this hospital and it hurt even more when he saw Aidan trying to calm Zia by holding her hand.
Wait…
Ian didn\'t notice this before, but then his eyes fell on Aidan\'s hand which was holding Zia\'s hand tightly, locking it in place.
"Let her go," Ian growled.
He took long strides toward Aidan and Zia, then grabbed Aidan by the collar with a savage expression, the same expression he had when he was about to beat up his opponent last night.
"Get your dirty hands off me," Aidan growled. He couldn\'t digest being treated like that. And thus, he couldn\'t help but let go of Zia\'s hand.
Meanwhile, Zia looked panicked as she feared that the two of them would start fighting. The two of them could get into trouble if that happened.
"Oh no, until you walk out of this room, I won\'t let you go," Ian said in a voice that was calm, but also dangerous.
"Don\'t try to be crazy with me," Aidan said calmly, then in one smooth motion, he pulled himself away from Ian.
But, on the other hand, instead of approaching Aidan, Ian took out his cellphone and started recording the man.
"Okay, stay as much as you want, and let\'s see what kind of trouble you\'ll get yourself in if the public finds out." Ian shoved his phone in Aidan\'s face. "You must be finally free. You visited Zia after a long time."
Those words not only pierced Zia\'s heart, but also made Aidan clench his fists in anger.
"Leave Mr. Smith, you\'re not welcome here," Ian said. He looked at Aidan fiercely.
"I\'ll come back later," Aidan said to Zia, and then walked out of the room. But then he heard Ian say; do not come back again just before he closed the door.
"Thank you Ian," Zia mumbled, but then she saw Ian raise his hand nonchalantly, then stride toward the sofa located in the middle of the room.
"Thank me later, let me sleep for a while," said Ian in a sleepy voice. "I need sleep," he mumbled, then plopped down on it.
"Sorry I disturbed your sleep," Zia felt bad, but then she realized that Ian was asleep and wasn\'t listening to her words.
Huh? That fast?

"What did you come here for!?" Aileen screamed right in front of Hailee. She was the last person she wanted to see.
Aileen didn\'t expect Hailee to make her do such a shameful act. When her consciousness finally returned and she was able to think more clearly, Aileen realized what had happened and became hysterical. She had been screaming all night cursing Hailee and needed someone to inject a sedative to stop her acting like that.
Not only that, Aileen even acted like a crazy person after that, because she couldn\'t accept the reality that was in front of her eyes.
"Didn\'t I tell you I\'d take you somewhere interesting?" Hailee crossed her arms in front of her chest and smiled very sweetly, a smile that she knew could make Aileen even crazier because of the hatred she felt toward her. "You don\'t think this is that special place, do you?"
Aileen went berserk again and there were two officers who finally came in to secure her and asked Hailee to come out, because they didn\'t want anything bad to happen to her.
They both knew who Hailee was, besides being the wife of Ramon Tordoff, she was also the niece of Diego Tatum, who was a big name in the military.
"Okay then," Hailee got up from her seat, but her eyes were still on Aileen, who was screaming hysterically.
Only when Aileen stopped screaming did Hailee say her last words before she left the room.
"Don\'t worry, we\'ll meet again at the special place I mentioned to you," Hailee said, waving her hand. "I hope you will like it."
