Chapter 284 - I WANT TO ACCOMPANY YOU
Lis accompanied Hailee for her obstetric appointment, and this was her second time in a month.
Although Hailee went once with Ramon, because Lis wanted to experience the activities she had promised since the beginning of her daughter- in- law's pregnancy, Hailee complied.
However, studying the results of this examination, the doctor said several things, including that Hailee had to rest completely for three days and take the medicines and vitamins that were prescribed.
"What is it?" Hailee asked worriedly, while Lis beside her had the same expression on.
Then the doctor explained that there was a problem with Hailee's pregnancy, but it wasn't a serious one, it seemed that it was because Hailee was too tired.
The doctor also asked if recently there was anything that stressed Hailee or made her feel depressed.
It must be admitted that this week was the toughest week for her since she got pregnant, especially the issue regarding Zia which drained her emotions and thoughts.
Hailee had tried not to think too much about the matter, but of course it wasn't an easy thing to do, especially when it came to the people closest to her.
Knowing that there was a death threat against Ramon, involving Ian, had drained most of her energy.
"Yes, it is best for you to rest for the following few days and not think about things that would stress you too much," said the doctor, who then gave Hailee the medicine and vitamins she needed.
This is completely unexpected.
Hailee didn't know that this would have an effect to this extent on her pregnancy, of course hearing that explanation made her even more worried and guilty, and it was evident on her face.
"It's okay, this is normal during the first term of pregnancy, especially during the first pregnancy." The doctor could easily read what Hailee was thinking through her facial expressions and she tried to calm the young mother- to- be.
"It is okay, Hailee." Lis grabbed Hailee's hand and held it. "You just do what the doctor says and after that you will be fine. Mother also experienced this when she was pregnant with Ramon."
Hailee looked at Lis and nodded slowly. All right, she is going to rest and not think about the things that have been bothering her. After all, Ramon had taken care of Zia's problem and now Zia was fine, so there was nothing for Hailee to worry about.
================
"Why would I attend Tordoff's company anniversary?" Aileen exclaimed at Leon's wish for her to attend the event. Knowing it was Hailee's territory, of course she didn't want to embarrass herself at the event.
Leon, the man sitting opposite Aileen, was now drinking his coffee quietly, while the sunlight from the window of the expensive restaurant where they had met, shone onto the dragon tattoo along his left arm. It was the symbol of an organization that he led.
Although not many know the organization, for the people in their circle, this organization was the most feared.
Leon moved slyly and did everything he could to get what he wanted.
"Of course you should go," Leon said slowly. "Don't you want to meet your sister?"
"She is not my sister," Aileen refuted with a growl.
Leon shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, then turned his face to admire the sunlight. He closed his eyes and spoke in the same tone, as if he had not heard Aileen's previous refusal.
"You should attend the anniversary event," he said without giving Aileen any room to argue.
This man is really hard to deal with.
================
When Hailee came out of the examination room, after asking a few more things about her pregnancy, she was surprised to find Ramon outside.
The man leaned his massive body against the wall behind him and when he found out Hailee had come out with Lis, he immediately went to his wife and hugged her.
"Could you leave me and mother for a bit? Wait in the car, I will follow soon," said Ramon softly, he had some things he had to ask Lis directly.
But, at this point, actually Ramon still had no idea how to start or what he should ask because, after all, Lis was his mother.
Not for sensitive reasons or matters of feelings, but because, just like Lis, they both know how each other thinks and to what extent they can manipulate the other person.
Tell lies undetected and also find out the information hidden in each answer given.
Hailee looked at Ramon and Lis in turn, before she finally nodded, knowing that this was not her realm to interfere.
Listening to it live or not, Ramon would tell her everything in the end, at least that was what Hailee knew.
"Okay," Hailee said, then walked to the car with Pyro.
After Hailee left, Ramon then looked at Lis and spoke in a firm voice, their gazes met and both seemed to know that this was an important discussion that couldn't be avoided.
It was a question That Lis had to answer, if not now, she would have to answer it one day.
However, on the other hand, Ramon was determined to get that answer right now.
Unbeknownst to Lis, Margaretha had said a few things to Ramon, although the information he got from the designer was incomplete and still needed further confirmation, but at least Ramon stumbled upon some key points.
"We have to talk," said Ramon.
================
Ian returned to Zia's room after he finished talking to Ramon and saw the woman was sitting on her bed weakly, with the IV tube still stuck in her arm.
However, what caught Ian's attention was the object Zia was currently focusing on that she didn't notice Ian's arrival.
It was a knife on the table, which was used to peel fruit. Zia looked at it as if she had other thoughts about the thing.
