It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 56: BRING HELL TO THEM

"What are you going to do with that district attorney?" Hailee whispered as they were in the speeding car to take Ramon for his routine check-ups, to follow up on his health progress during these few days after his surgery, namely a post-surgery check-up and also to monitor for amnesia he was experiencing.

Ramon glanced at the girl beside him, after yesterday's incident where Ramon confronted Hailee to be honest and half-forced her will to sign the documents he had prepared, Hailee seemed more comfortable and free to be around him.

"Nothing," Ramon replied curtly and made Hailee crease her forehead in confusion.

"Why nothing? You said you would handle it," Hailee was still whispering as she spoke to Ramon, her body so close that he could smell the perfume this girl was wearing.

Ramon knew he should answer Hailee's questions, because this girl would pester him until she got the full answer she wanted.

"He wouldn't dare to say anything about that night, but if he intends to do something stupid by spreading the news, I will handle it head on." In other words, as long as Roland Dimatrio didn't bother him, then Ramon wouldn't take any action, because this man's goal was the Tatum family's company and not the district attorney.

"Deal with it in person?" Hailee repeated Ramon's words, a mischievous smile on her lips. "I like hearing it. You look sexy when you say that."

Just as Ramon turned his gaze toward Hailee, the girl glanced at him, which made Ramon roll his eyes dramatically. He simply couldn't understand what was going around in this girl's brain or how her thoughts wrap around the issues she pondered about.

However, the thought that he would spend a long time with her and keep wondering what kind of absurd things Hailee would do or say, seemed quite interesting and Ramon didn't hate it.

"Other people who heard you will think you're crazy about me," said Ramon, ignoring the fact that Hailee was still leaning so close to him even though there was enough space in the car for them not to huddle together like this.

Hailee clicked her tongue. "That means they were observing well," she replied indifferently.

However, Hailee immediately moved away when Ramon looked up at her fiercely, the girl chuckled when she saw Ramon's expression that seemed to say that Hailee had interrupted his work.

"Why?" asked Ramon suddenly.

"Why what?" Hailee turned her attention from the fairly congested highway toward the man beside her who nodded at her stomach. "It's okay, my stomach just hurts a little, a slight cramp," said Hailee as she lowered her hand.

Hailee rubbed her stomach which was a little hurt without she realizing it herself. Because of what happened yesterday, Hailee skipped breakfast and was late for lunch. That night, Hailee didn't eat properly, too excited about this unexpected progress.

Besides, Ramon didn't want to be disturbed and Hailee was too lazy to have dinner alone, while Lexus immediately ran away after catching her and Ramon on the stairs, saying things like; the two of them shouldn't be doing that in public and something about being single.

Hailee could only laugh cheekily while Ramon, as usual, didn't show any emotion.

"When are you going to visit your family?" Ramon asked again when he saw that Hailee was not concerned about her discomfort. For this visit, Ramon had to rearrange his schedule and of course, he really wanted to learn what the Tatum family was like.

"If our wedding is on Saturday next week, I want to visit them a week before, at least they will be home on the weekend," Hailee said thoughtfully, she had thought about this before. "But, I have to make a phone call in advance to notify them of our arrival."

Ramon listened to her. "Tell Danny after you've confirmed it."

Hailee nodded, but then she glanced at Ramon and drew closer to the man again, it seemed like this girl wasn't awkward around him now.

"Hey, I didn't expect that you would actually do this for me," said Hailee with a frown.

"Do what?" Ramon glanced at Hailee's face who was staring at him and then removed his laptop from his lap before he focused all his attention on Hailee.

"Agreeing to visit my family," Hailee replied.

"Of course I'm not doing this for you, but to get to know them better and make my plans easier." One must know the enemy and the terrain they must face when they enter a battle.

And Ramon had a hunch that this would be a battle for the company in the future. They wouldn't just leave the company into the hands of a stranger who suddenly came and introduced himself as Hailee's future husband.

However, Ramon would not make a fuss because it was all worth it.

"Plans to take over my family's company?" Hailee said sarcastically.

"Taking over the company of my future wife," corrected Ramon.

"It doesn't make any difference," said Hailee, curling her lips. "And I told you, didn't I? I don't know it before, but your words make me think again about the death of my parents. "

It never occurred to Hailee that the death of her parents had an element of intention and that her extended family was involved in it.

But, after what happened to her and how Aileen's attitude changed one hundred and eighty degrees and even more so after Hailee found out that the company was now managed by Aileen and her father's younger brother, Hailee started to feel something was wrong.

"What if what you suspect is true?" Hailee asked in a voice like someone who was muttering and talking to himself. "That the robbery is not an ordinary robbery."

Ramon shifted his body so he could gaze intently at Hailee. "What would you do if it was true?"

What will Hailee do?

Hailee never came to that thought, but if that's all true ...

"I will not forgive them," replied Hailee simply who got a snort from Ramon. "What?" Hailee asked, frowning, not understanding the response she was getting from Ramon.

"You think by not forgiving them, they will care?" asked Ramon in a condescending voice at the answer Hailee chose.

"Then, how about you?" Hailee asked Ramon. "What would you do if you were in my position?"

"Show them how terrible revenge is." Ramon shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "I am not a saint and an easily forgiving person."

Hailee felt the pain in her stomach return when she heard Ramon's words. She was grateful she wasn't this man's enemy.
