Chapter 353: WHAT RAMON HAS DONE FOR HAILEE
"So, where is the answer I want?" Ramon questioned this to Hailee while kissing her forehead and then looked into her eyes that were still locked on him with a look of disbelief, as if Hailee still didn't expect that Ramon would actually co here just to ask for this.
Hailee bit her lip, but Ramon then held her chin with his two fingers, staring at her intensely.
"Why did you co here?"
Of course, the journey between the Tordoff residence and the Tatum residence would take about three hours, if the streets were really quiet.
But, seriously? Did Ramon just waste his ti coming to Hailee in the middle of the night like this just to keep her company because Hailee wanted him to co?
Hailee didn't know that Ramon could be this crazy...
This was a surprising discovery. What a sweet surprise, if Hailee could say so. And she really liked it…
"That's not the answer I wanted, honey," Ramon whispered into Hailee's ear and kissed her neck, making Hailee's heart skip a beat, she could feel a wild feeling awaken inside her.
"Then, what kind of answer do you want?" asked Hailee, she smiled faintly when she heard Ramon groan in annoyance at her stubbornness.
"You know what I want to hear." Ramon then pushed Hailee's body slowly onto the bed and started tracing her jaw, while his other hand gently squeezed the girl's slender waist.
"No… it seems you have too high expectations of ," Hailee said in a whispery voice. Her breath hitched as Ramon's hand started exploring under her pajamas.
"You want to hear it again?" asked Ramon.
"Hmm." Hailee nodded weakly. She could feel Ramon's cold hand against her smooth stomach, as he gently caressed her.
"I love you, Hailee..." said Ramon again for the umpteenth ti tonight.
"Yes I know." Hailee laughed as Ramon growled, because that wasn't the answer he wanted.
================
Ramon didn't sleep at all tonight, he just hugged Hailee all night and coaxed her to sleep.
They did nothing but hug and tease each other.
Of course, Ramon wouldn't have the heart to do that to Hailee after what she had been through. It was too soon for her to accept such attention and Ramon didn't want to hurt Hailee, no matter how much he wanted it.
Thus, Ramon spent the night coaxing his wife to sleep and to stop being naughty and provoking him further.
In the end, with a groan, Hailee fell asleep.
Not only because Ramon had to think about the next step he should take, which was the reason why he didn't fall asleep, but also because he needed to return to town A soon, considering the long journey he had to go through.
Even though he only got to see Hailee for a few hours and this disrupted his rest hours, Ramon didn't regret it at all. Maybe Lexus would say that what Ramon was doing right now was unnecessary, because Hailee would be ho the next day, but for her… This is worth it.
Ramon lifted his hand from Hailee's body and looked at his watch which indicated that it was ti for him to leave.
Therefore, slowly, Ramon removed himself from Hailee's side and kissed her forehead. He also tucked the blanket around the woman so she wouldn't get cold. After that, he slowly walked out of the room.
Ti to go back to town A…
================
Hailee woke up and found that she was alone, the spot next to her was cold, which indicated that Ramon was gone for a long ti, even though the sky outside was still dark.
With sleepy eyes, Hailee took out her cell phone and called Ramon.
Her husband picked up the phone on the second ring. "Are you awake?" he asked gently. "Why don't you sleep so more?"
"Are you on your way back to town A already?" Hailee asked in a hoarse voice that made Ramon smile.
"Yes. I have a eting this morning that I have to attend," said Ramon. "And also a trial."
This afternoon's trial would involve Axcel Dmitri, where he would testify against Leon by saying that he knew about the illegal trade the man was engaged in.
Axcel did know this, but not to the extent that could make him a key witness in this trial.
But, with Ramon behind him, of course knowing an important detail was not a problem anymore.
And after all, Axcel didn't have much choice; be a witness at this trial or get popular as the video made at that ti would be widely circulated in the cyberworld without censorship…
That's crazy!
Axcel's life was already a ss, so if this had to be added to it, of course he would be utterly devastated…
For the narrow-minded man, the most important thing now is how he survives. For that alone, he would do whatever was necessary.
"Go back to sleep, it's still early…" Ramon coaxed when he heard Hailee yawning.
"Let know when you get ho," Hailee mumbled sleepily.
"Of course."
"I love you."
And Ramon smiled when he finally heard those words. Last night, Hailee was so stubborn not to say it back.
================
This morning, Lexus felt better and decided that it was okay for him to go to the office, thanks to Doctor Bram and the two infusion bottles. Oh, he didn't forget the food that Ramon brought.
Maybe the real problem wasn't with his body, but rather with the thoughts and feelings that weren't being channeled, so after Lexus' brief chat with Ramon last night, he felt much better.
"You weren't ho last night? Where did you go?" Lexus asked when he saw Ramon had just co down from his room. "I heard the sound of your car in the middle of the night."
Ramon took a few slices of bread and let Martha pour him coffee.
"You hanging around in the middle of the night because Hailee isn't here? I'll tell my sister-in-law if you ss around," Lexus threatened in a relaxed tone.
anwhile, Ramon glanced at Lexus and said quietly, "I went to et Hailee."
It took Lexus two full seconds to digest the words until he finally turned to Ramon to confirm that what he had just heard was true.
"You are actually with her? You went to the Tatum residence last night?" Lexus looked at his brother in disbelief.
And even though Ramon didn't respond to the question, Lexus knew that Ramon wasn't lying when he said that. "You two really leave speechless…" Lexus muttered… he could only shake his head and finish his breakfast.
================
Pyro knew of Aileen's whereabouts now, and this would be the first thing Hailee planned to do; et her beloved adoptive sister to release longing...
Hailee really couldn't wait to see how Aileen was now that she had beco a fugitive. Did she know that her status had changed? That she could no longer roam around freely out there? It would be a very pleasant thing for Hailee to know that Aileen was living in fear if she realized that.
Therefore, Hailee would make sure that her beloved sister knew what her current status changed to.
The police did move quickly to find Aileen's whereabouts, but Hailee had known her sister for a long ti, so at least there were so places she believed to be where Aileen was hiding and Pyro had his own way of finding out about the information.
And now, Hailee was on her way to what was believed to be Aileen's hideout.
This morning, while she was checking her phone, Hailee found a sweet ssage from Ramon wishing her good morning and informing her that he had arrived ho.
Maybe these little things don't really an much, but these kinds of things can definitely make Hailee feel over the moon.
Ramon said he would let her know when he got ho and he did, whether Hailee was awake or not when she received the ssage or if he would get a reply soon, Ramon kept her updated.
This is indeed a trivial thing, but Hailee genuinely appreciates it nonetheless.
Hailee then read Ramon's words from this morning again that sounded so sweet. She didn't expect Ramon to use these kinds of words…
'You are probably sleeping like a cute little baby right now. I just wanted to say good morning beautiful. Hope you have an amazing day today, my wife.'
It was a line Hailee didn't expect Ramon to use. Maybe it was a good idea to not be at ho once in a while to bring out this sweet side of Ramon.
"We're here," Barry said as they turned into a narrow alleyway where no cars could go. He could see Pyro, standing nearby, waiting for them.
Hailee cleared her throat for a bit to wipe the silly smile off her face before she muttered. "Okay."
"Mrs. Tordoff, are you sure you want to co down? Wouldn't it be better if we took Aileen out of her house to et you?" asked Barry. He didn't like Hailee being in a strange place like this.
"It's okay, Pyro said this place is safe," Hailee said, then she opened the door when the car stopped.
With no other choice, Barry got out of the car, as did several bodyguards from the six cars following them.
Hailee recalled that she only brought twelve of them yesterday when she went to Tatum's company, but when all the bodyguards finished coming out of the cars, why did their number seem to be doubled?
Hailee was stunned for a mont when she saw the large number of them. What's this? It looks like she's on a parade right now...
Even Pyro had widened his eyes when he saw the n around Hailee.
Although most of them wore casual clothes, that didn't an Pyro couldn't tell them apart.
"Ramon…" Hailee was sure that this was her husband's doing.
