Chapter 268: COMMON MISTAKES
Hailee couldn't believe the article that Ramon showed her, she woke up because Zia called her, so she didn't have ti to check her cell phone or see the news.
In the article, Hailee saw Zia and Aidan together in an intimate pose, clearly showing what had just happened between the two of them before the photo was taken.
And even though Zia's face is blurred, those close to her and know her will imdiately realize that it was Zia, just like Hailee did.
"This…" Hailee couldn't find any words to describe how she felt right now.
"I think this is what happened to her," Ramon said, looking at his wife. His face didn't show any expression, because Zia wasn't soone he knew, but it was different for Hailee...
"Ramon, how is this..." Hailee looked confused, she was so worried about her cousin and Ramon was worried about Hailee. "If Uncle Diego finds out about this…"
Even though Zia was an only child and Uncle Diego rarely got angry with her, that didn't an he would just sit back and accept with an open heart, knowing his only daughter was involved in such a shaful scandal.
Uncle Diego's anger was unimaginable… even Hailee shuddered at the thought of her uncle being angry.
"I'm sure he'll find out sooner or later." Ramon understood how this kind of information worked, or people like Diego Tatum, there's no way he wouldn't have seen the article. They might as well think that he already knew about it.
"Isn't there anything we can do?" Hailee knew that what Ramon said was true.
Of course if this matter was about Hailee, Ramon would do anything to fix it, but this matter was about Zia, not his wife, so why should Ramon go to extra trouble of helping soone he didn't even know that well?
"Relax, I'll be doing sothing with the dia." But, still, seeing Hailee so flustered and panicked like this made Ramon feel uneasy.
So, even if it troubled him, he would still do it for Hailee.
"Really? Will you help?" Hailee felt the knot in her chest unravel a little.
"Just for you," Ramon said softly as he lowered his head and kissed Hailee's forehead. "Stop worrying. We'll see what I can do about this situation."
Imdiately, Hailee threw herself into Ramon's arms and hugged her husband tightly, showering Ramon with small kisses on his face. "I know that I can count on you. I love you. You are the best." Even Hailee wasn't stingy with her complints.
On the other hand Ramon laughed softly. "I know."

Zia hugged her knees tightly, and rested her chin on them, while outside, her father knocked loudly on her bedroom door, forcing her to answer his call.
"Zia you're inside! I know you're in there! Tell it's not you!" Diego exclaid, anger palpable in his tone. "ZIA! OPEN THIS DOOR OR I WILL BREAK IT NOW!"
Zia's sobs grew louder, she tried to cover her ears, wishing her father would leave her alone. She didn't want to see him for now.
Not only out of fear, but also out of sha…
How could she face her father now when she knew that almost everyone in this country had seen her indecent photo with Aidan? The disgrace was known by many people. How could she get out of her room and face people out there realizing that they knew she was the woman in the photo.
The woman who had been the object of their gossip for the past few weeks. The woman who has ruined Aidan and Giana's marriage.
Whatever Zia said, no one would care. They wouldn't want to hear the story from her side and after all, she didn't have the ability to say a word right now.
"ZIA! OPEN THE DOOR!" Diego's roar was heard again and there was nothing Zia could do to dispel that horrible sound.
With trembling hands, Zia tried to take hold of her phone again. She tried to contact Aidan.
The man had to save this situation. He promised that no one would find out about her identity.
But, as before, the number she dialed was inactive. Aidan was unreachable and Zia was directed to a voicemail.
"Aidan… help … what should I do?" Zia said quietly, sending the voicemail, hoping Aidan would hear it. "I'm afraid… you promised to take care of everything. Why is it like this? Is this the karma I have to live with? Aidan… what should I do?"
Zia burst into tears, with a furious growl from her father as her background who was still trying to open the door to her room.
================
A slap from Mr. Smith landed on Aidan's cheek causing the man to fall to the ground.
No, it wasn't just a slap, but rather Mr. Smith hit Aidan so hard it caused the man's lips to bleed.
anwhile, standing behind her husband, was Mrs. Smith. She scread in terror when she saw the father and son's quarrel turn into a physical squabble.
"You don't have to hit him like that!" cried Mrs. Smith angrily, she imdiately rushed to her son and hugged Aidan, panicking even more when she saw the blood flowing from her son's lips.
"Renfred, you're crazy!" Sophie rebuked angrily.
"? Crazy!?" Renfred could no longer contain his anger. "Your son is crazy!?" he cried angrily. "How can he destroy what my family has built for decades, destroy all the hard work that helped us beco a prominent family in city A, in just a week?!"
Renfred didn't know how he could teach Aidan a lesson anymore. He wanted to kill his son for the disgrace he brought upon his family. However, of course it would only be a re wish and could not possibly be realized.
"We can solve this problem! We just need to find the best solution!" Sophie insisted. She hugged Aidan tightly, protecting her son from Renfred's wrath. Who knows what her husband will do?!
"Solution!? I already gave him a solution, but he refused!" Renfred had co up with the best solution they could co up with at this point, but Aidan had refused it blatantly.
"Aidan, just do what your father says, okay?" Sophie tried to persuade her son. "It's for your own good. You must restore your good na."
Aidan closed his eyes tightly. How could he agree to that? How could he say that all of this was Zia's fault for seducing him and trying to destroy his marriage? That everything happened between him and Zia was a mistake?
Common mistakes that many n make in dostic life. Having an affair or two, for n, is a natural thing…
