Chapter 158 - THE SWEETEST SIN
Hailee arrived at the Tordoffs residence when it was almost night and she no longer had the energy to open her eyes.
The drowsiness struck her quite strongly, after completing this tiring and quite sudden journey to home.
So, Ramon decided to carry her into their house and then took Hailee straight to their room.
Prior to their return journey, Ramon had contacted Danny to inform him of their departure ahead of schedule.
Hence, Ramon's room had a 'new' feel to welcome this new couple to the Tordoff family. Yes, this new couple would occupy Ramon's bedroom and all the decorations in the room, which at first looked very dull, minimalistic and seemed a little lonely, now have a little color with a combination of blue and white gradations.
And not only that, even Hailee's clothes have moved into Ramon's closet now.
Ramon's walk- in closet looked crowded with the addition of Hailee's clothes on the other side. There were also two large cabinets, which appeared to be newly purchased for the two of them. In addition to kept Hailee's jewelery as well as all kinds of ties, watches and also Ramon's safe.
During their honeymoon time was enough time for Lis and Lexus to fulfill their crazy dreams by entering Ramon's private territory and changing some without his permission.
It was certain that this was the work of Lis and Lexus. They both were the masterminds of all these crazy ideas.
But oddly enough, Ramon didn't mind at all when he saw all of this. He just glanced at his room which had changed in looks and vibe and then put Hailee on the bed with ease.
Seeing that Hailee was still wearing her jacket, which was sure to make her sleep uncomfortable, Ramon then took it upon himself to take it off for her, leaving Hailee with only a t-shirt and jeans.
Hailee didn't even dress up when they went to the small airport on Crestgold Island, so they could reach city A in the immediate flight. She was in rush, or you could say she was really upset to be in the same place with Giana.
Although during the air trip Hailee looked cheerful as usual, despite the short drama of her jealousy toward Giana, but as they continue the road trip, Hailee got sleepy and began to fall asleep in the first five minutes of their car moving through the traffic of city A, toward the Tordoff residence.
And until now, it seemed that Hailee was still asleep and didn't remember anything about their return trip.
After removing the jacket Hailee was wearing, Ramon then covered her and kissed her forehead.
However, it was at this time that something happened, or maybe it was more correctly; Ramon seemed to feel deja vu from what he was doing.
Ramon seemed to see a flash of a memory from his past, in those four years he had forgotten.
But, what was certain was this incident happened not too long ago. Because when he got that flash of memory, the face that appeared in his eyes was Giana.
Ramon's subconscious recalled that he had done almost exactly the same things he was doing now to Hailee.
Giana was sleeping and he kissed her forehead, then covered her body with blanket...
However, after that Ramon couldn't remember anything else. Only that fragment of memory had returned, while the rest were still shrouded in a mist of mystery.
Ramon frowned and looked at Hailee's face, who was fast asleep, which strangely brought calm to his rumbling heart.
What is that memory?
Even though that was a question Ramon asked himself, but he knew the answer to that question.
It was not new information for Ramon to know that he was having an affair with another man's wife, despite his distrust of this fact, for which he kept questioning himself; why he did that?
Ramon knew he wouldn't be crazy enough to do all that, right?
And what made him so attracted to Giana that he risked his reputation and status for such a completely worthless affair?
Even Ramon didn't want to believe that this unreasonable man was him.
What really happened between him and Giana? And how did it all start? This was still a big question mark for Ramon and the only way to get the answer was to get back his lost memories.
However, on the other hand, Ramon did not want that memory. He was quite comfortable with the way he was now, with the state he was in with Hailee.
Ramon thought all of this was enough...
Moreover, the fact that his past with Giana was not a pleasant thing to remember, this made him reluctant.
However, there was still something that bothered Ramon. An uncomfortable feeling that he felt when such flashes of memory came back to him and he didn't know how he could do something like that? What was the reason?
Once again, Ramon stared at Hailee's sleeping face and pulled the blanket over her chin, gave her a brief kiss and then tucked the blanket for her neatly.
After a while, Ramon decided to enjoy the evening breeze while clearing his slightly tangled thoughts on the balcony.
And without being noticed, Ramon spent the night there, until the morning sun greeted the world again...
==============
Dillon sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Giana's sleeping face, who seemed to be very sound asleep, as if nothing could wake her up.
His head was still throbbing painfully, so he massaged his temples slowly as he was trying to remember what happened last night.
Not that Dillon forgot about it, of course not. Dillon clearly remembered everything he did with Giana.
Every inch of her soft skin he touched and how she sighed in his ear when she called out his name.
Did that mean Giana would remember it? Giana realized that it was Dillon and didn't mind at all? Or maybe Giana called him out for them to stop all the madness, but Dillon didn't understand and he misinterpreted her words and reactions.
Giana's reaction last night ...
Dillon was reminded again how responsive Giana was to every touch from him. So, the last thought wasn't exactly right, right?
Or...
Dillon felt like his head was going to explode and the throbbing in his temple was getting crazy, it felt like this pain alone could kill him.
However, there was something more urgent that he had to think about…
How would Giana react when she woke up? Was it all right if Dillon stayed around until then, or maybe he should pretend that nothing really happened last night.
Would Giana remember what happened between them?
Should Dillon tell her? But, how should he get started?
'We just slept together and I know it was a mistake.' But after that what? Their interactions would be awkward, especially since they were working together and most of Dillon's time was spent staying with Giana.
Or should Dillon just pretend he didn't know anything? If Giana didn't remember this incident, then Dillon could forget about it and think that this was just a dream...
But, could he really do that?
It felt completely impossible after what the two of them had done and hoped that the relationship between them would return to normal.
While Dillon was thinking about all the possibilities, suddenly Giana stretched out in her sleep and this made Dillon froze in his spot. His eyes watched Giana's body twitching restlessly, before finally her beautiful eyes opened.
She blinked for a few moments before finally her eyes caught Dillon's figure there; stunned and at a loss for words...
Giana then realized that something was wrong, and tried to sit up, but it caused the blanket that was covering her to fall onto her lap, revealing her uncovered upper body.
But, luckily her long hair covered her sensitive parts…
Still, Dillon had to keep his eyes on her face and not any other part of Giana's body.
For a moment, they remained in that position until Dillon cleared his throat and took a deep breath, trying to be as calm as possible and face the situation with a cool head.
But, still, everything he thought was inconsistent with the roar in his chest and the words of accusation that kept echoing in his head saying that he had taken advantage of an unstable situation and woman ...
What an animal he had been.
"Giana ..." Dillon started to speak, but then his words stopped when Giana just stood there, showing her naked self right in front of him.
Indeed, Dillon had seen Giana's soft body last night, but now things were completely different. The situation and the atmosphere are also different.
Now, they were both very aware of each other's presence and perhaps the most beautiful sin they committed last night.
It's just that, why was Giana not bothered by this at all? She didn't show any strange reaction.
"I am going to take a shower," Giana said in her voice that still sounded like someone who had just downed a kilogram of sand, rough and hoarse, as she passed Dillon who was looking down, looking away from Giana's naked body.
"Oh ... yes ..." Dillon stammered. He didn't understand why Giana acted like this was nothing big...
Or maybe Giana was still not fully aware of what had happened... Maybe her mind was still clouded by the influence of alcohol from last night.
Then, did Dillon have to wait there until Giana finished taking a shower? Or should he leave this room now?
