It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

"We have to go to the central hospital," Ramon said in a calm tone, which only made Hailee frown.

"What are we going there for?" She asked confusedly. Aren't they currently in a hospital as well? Why go to another hospital if Ramon wanted to do another examination?

Hailee couldn't understand what was going on in Ramon's mind, because from his expression it was clearly hard to read.

"A thorough check up," Ramon said in the same tone of voice. He then took off the coat he was wearing to drape it over Hailee's shoulders.

Of course, this action made the wrinkles on Hailee's forehead deepen. What was Ramon really trying to do? Hailee was already wearing her own jacket and she wasn't feeling cold, so this romantic gesture wasn't really necessary…

However, Hailee didn't say anything, in order not to spoil the mood and let her husband help her out of the hospital bed carefully, as if Hailee was suffering from a serious illness and unable to function normally.

Hmm, was this one of Ramon's ways to show his concern? May be…

Though it was a little bit strange, but Hailee was curious to see what else Ramon would do.

Then, without saying anything else, Ramon led Hailee out of the room, leaving the doctor alone, as his arms wrapped around her waist protectively.

Outside the room, they met Zia who was still waiting for Hailee. The young woman immediately stood up and approached her with a happy smile on her lips.

She then shifted her gaze between Hailee and Ramon and then back to Hailee. "Congratulations Mr. Tordoff!" Zia said cheerfully.

"Hm," Ramon responded flatly.

And when Zia was about to hug Hailee, Ramon suddenly pulled his wife's body which was still in his arms back a little, preventing Zia from coming closer. "Eh?"

Hailee who saw this could only grimace. "We're going to the central hospital," she said, informing her cousin.

"What for?" Zia immediately came back from her shock and tried to act normal. Although, she didn't understand why Ramon had to act like that. It was not like Zia would hurt Hailee by hugging her, right? If that was what this man thinking, then it was too much.

"For a thorough check up," Hailee replied, but she used a questioning tone at the end of the sentence while looking at Ramon beside her, unsure of her own answer. Well, Ramon didn't explain further about why they had to go to the central hospital.

However, as long as Ramon cared about the health of Hailee and their future child, Hailee would not comment much. Just let this cold man show his care in a strange way.

"Oh, then I will go home and tell dad this happy news, he must be very happy to hear that," Zia said with a big smile, but this time she didn't try to hug Hailee, but just waved her hand

"Oh, okay," Hailee said then took the initiative to hug Zia first. "I will call you back later," she said, kissing Zia's cheek lightly.

"Okay, be careful on the road," Zia said. "Take care."

Hailee smiled happily, while Ramon just gave Zia a small nod, like the formal nod he always gave to those who greeted him.

Then, Ramon and Hailee left from the hospital to the central hospital accompanied by several bodyguards who escorted them in a much 'low profile' manner.

Meanwhile, Zia could only wince when she saw the way Ramon treated Hailee.

Maybe, people would think that Ramon's attitude was too much, but that guy did it because he didn't know how to react properly in a situation like this.

Ramon had, of course, expected this moment to happen, but when Hailee was actually pregnant, he didn't know the right reaction to show and had no one to ask.

Well, Lexus would never be included in his count because his younger brother had never experienced anything like this too.

Zia, who watched Ramon and Hailee leave until their figures disappeared, could only stand there alone.

Actually the reason why Zia asked Hailee out was because she didn't want to be alone. That was why, she met Hailee so she could distract herself from Aidan's problems and the fact that he kept refusing her calls.

However, now of course, she couldn't bother her cousin.

Zia then reached for her cell phone which she put in her trouser pocket and started looking for a number in her cell phone contacts which, you could say, she didn't call often. "Ian?" She greeted. "Where are you?"

Then, there was a grunt from the other end of the phone because Zia had disturbed his sleep.

Meanwhile, the sky had revealed a reddish glow, signaling that the day would turn into night, leaving today with many unresolved stories between those who were feuding.

================ 

"Giana I apologize in advance for what I am about to do," Aidan said at the end of his long explanation of the reason why he kept apologizing to this woman.

Aidan knew he was an asshole for making Giana feel this way and adding to the devastation in the midst of the troubles she was in, but wouldn't it be better if Giana knew about this beforehand so she could prepare herself?

Meanwhile, Giana closed her eyes very tightly and gritted her molars hard, to contain the anger that welled up inside her. Her hands gripped the blanket until her knuckles turned white.

"That's all I wanted to say," Aidan said, ending his long speech. He then fell silent for a moment, waiting for Giana's reaction. Is this woman going to throw a tantrum again like she did a few hours ago, or is she going to try to throw something at Aidan again…

Whatever it was, Aidan had prepared himself for whichever reaction Giana would give.

Only, Giana did not budge. She sat on her bed without saying anything, nor wanting to look at Aidan.

Silence fell between the two of them for what seemed like a very long moment and Aidan was still patiently waiting for what Giana had to say, but the woman didn't say a word.

Until in the end, Aidan gave up and thought that Giana needed some time alone, so that's what he gave her.

Aidan then got up from his seat and straightened his clothes. He had asked someone to get him a change of clothes so that the clothes he was wearing now no longer had bloodstains on them. Only his bandaged hand indicated that the horrific incident at Dillon's apartment had actually happened.

"If there's nothing you want to ask or say, I will go." Aidan waited, but still no reaction. "I think you need some time alone to cool off."

After saying that, he stepped across the room, about to leave, but was stopped when Giana's hoarse voice called out to him.

"Aidan," Giana said his name very stiffly, as if there were a million emotions that pushed her to be able to speak. "I will make sure you pay for all this. If you think you can get out of this just like that with just meaningless apology of yours, then you are very wrong. I will drag you down with me as well as your little slut."

It was a warning and a threat. And, Giana was determined to make it happen at any cost.

The hatred that possessed her seemed to drown and strangle her strongly, making it hard for Giana to breathe, but at the same time, it was this hatred that pushed her to survive.

================ 

"Hey, you can have your coat back, I am not cold," Hailee complained. At first, she was okay with Ramon's strange attitude, but after a while the coat made her felt uncomfortable and too hot.

She had already put on a jacket and now Ramon added the coat he was wearing, not to mention their sitting position, which indirectly made Ramon half hug her.

Ugh! Could you imagine how hot and uncomfortable it is?

Ramon didn't say anything, he just looked at Hailee with a slightly furrowed brow, but didn't let go of his embrace or made a move to remove the coat that he made his wife wear.

Tsk! Had Ramon become more quiet now than usual? No, he wasn't actually quiet. It's safe to say that Ramon talked quite a lot, but only with certain people he deemed worth talking to, then only he would utter a few more words than usual.

"Ramon…" Hailee sulked. "I am hot. You can't wrap me like a sweet potato like this."

It was only after seeing the sweat that was starting to form on Hailee's forehead, that Ramon was willing to let go of the woman and the coat he put on her.

"Hey, are you worried about my condition?" Hailee asked curiously. She could have guessed it easily, but still, getting a direct answer from Ramon was far more satisfying. "You are worried about me now that I am pregnant?"

Ramon didn't answer immediately, he looked at Hailee first, long enough for the woman to feel uncomfortable with his intense gaze.

"Yes," answered Ramon at last. "You can say that."

'You can say that'? What answer is that? Ramon should just say 'yes' and didn't need to add any explanation.

Exasperated, Hailee turned her body so that she was facing Ramon, then she cupped her palms to the man's cheeks so that their eyes met.

"Are you happy to hear this news?" Hailee asked carefully, since Ramon had not yet said anything about her pregnancy, except that they needed to go to central hospital.
