Chapter 80 - HORROR MOVIE
Are you crazy?
Hailee's words, right after they finished lunch had returned to his ears and somehow this irritated Ramon.
He knew that it did sound crazy, even he himself did think so, but that didn't mean Hailee could just say it out loud.
"Mr. Tordoff… " Silvana, Ramon's secretary, who had been standing beside him, was waiting for two more documents that Ramon had to sign.
Meanwhile, hearing his name being called out, Ramon glared at Silvana, it was obvious that his mood was not very good and this made the poor secretary have to swallow nervously before she told her boss.
"Mr. Tordoff, you're scribbling on this document… I think we should reprint the agreement," Silvana said timidly. It was rare for Ramon Tordoff to look so angry as he was now.
Because Ramon usually wouldn't be concerned over trivial matters, and tended to have a calm personality, but other people would know not to mess with him.
Yes, seemingly only Hailee could make Ramon talk more, because somehow that girl always managed to provoke his emotions and sides of himself that were rarely seen by other people, even Ramon only realized that he had that kind of character recently.
For example, when he teased Hailee or just said something that could upset her. As long as Ramon could remember, he had never interacted with other people like that.
"I better replace it immediately," Silvana said, as she reached out to take the document from in front of Ramon. The man could see the ink stain spread across the place where he should have signed it.
Ramon said nothing and let Silvana take the document and walk out of his room, while he leaned his back against the back of the chair, massaging his throbbing temples.
That girl really had a bad influence on him.
That night when Ramon came home, Hailee was busy preparing dinner for the two of them, accompanied by Martha.
Hearing the familiar sound of Ramon's car, Hailee immediately greeted him with a spoon in her hand.
This kind of scene was not the first time Ramon had seen it, but every time Hailee did this, Ramon found himself smiling.
All this time, no one had been waiting for him to come home and no one had ever greeted him. Even when he was a teenager or before he occupied this house.
Because Lis would be busy with her business matters and Lexus would always be out of the house all the time, hanging out with anyone or dating some woman.
But now, seeing Hailee twirled the spoon in her hand while saying, 'I've prepared dinner, come down right away. I'm hungry,' made Ramon's feel his days in this house not so gloomy and boring.
"What are you cooking?" Ramon asked casually before he climbed the stairs to his room on the second floor.
"Chicken cordon bleu," Hailee replied, walking back into the dining room.
Ramon nodded. Sounds quite appetizing ...
==============
It didn't take long for Ramon to clean himself and change into more comfortable clothes. When he was done, he went back down and found Hailee who was just about to climb the stairs, it seemed that she couldn't wait to call out to him.
"You took so long…" Hailee sighed, frowning.
"You can eat first if you're really hungry," Ramon said as he walked past Hailee.
"I don't want to eat alone," Hailee replied casually and walked beside Ramon. "Oh yeah, your mother called earlier, she said she wants me to come with her to try the wedding dress tomorrow..." she reported, feeling a little uncomfortable when she said 'wedding dress', for some reason Hailee felt embarrassed.
However, when Hailee glanced at Ramon beside her, the man didn't show any expression.
"Okay," he replied simply, then sat down on a chair to start eating.
Only that? Hailee thought. "You don't want to see?" she asked.
When the two of them had sat down, several servants immediately served drinks and took out the dishes Hailee had made, after which they left the couple alone.
"What?" asked Ramon with a slightly confused face.
"Seeing me wearing a wedding dress."
"I'll see you wearing it in our wedding."
That is true.
But, wait… "Of course it's different. You can see it before anyone else. "
"Will seeing it first change anything in our marriage later?" asked Ramon. And again Hailee had to admit that this was also true.
But…
"Hhh…" Hailee sighed heavily yet silently, and didn't say anything else as they ate.
But, during that time, Ramon glanced at Hailee a few times and saw her expression that looked annoyed.
Honestly, Ramon didn't understand why he had to see Hailee in her wedding dress before the wedding when he would eventually see it on the day of their big day.
And as for Ramon, because some of his clothes were hand made, they already knew the exact size. What's more, the two suits that he would wear later wouldn't be as complicated as Hailee's.
After dinner, Ramon intended to return to his room and rest immediately, but Hailee chose that moment to talk to him again.
"Will you be working again later?" Hailee asked as she followed Ramon out of the dining room to their respective rooms on the second floor.
"No," replied Ramon. "Why?" Hailee didn't usually ask this.
Hearing that, Hailee clapped her hands hard and her sullen expression immediately turned cheerful.
This girl's mood changed very quickly ...
"Then, how about we watch a movie together?" Hailee walked backward in front of Ramon as they climbed the stairs.
"No," Ramon immediately refused, his forehead creased when he saw Hailee walking like that. "Do you not know how to walk the right way? You could fall," he grumbled.
Hailee ignored Ramon's warning as they had reached the second floor.
"Come on… accompany me…" Hailee persuaded while pulling on Ramon's sleeve.
"No," said Ramon again.
However, that man should have known enough that Hailee wouldn't give up with just a 'no'.
The girl was standing in front of Ramon's door, blocking him from entering his own room.
"You have a television in your room, you can watch it yourself." Ramon protested,
"I don't want to watch it myself, I'm afraid."
Ramon frowned. "What film do you want to see?"
"Horror."
"If you're afraid don't watch it!" Ramon really wanted to know, what's inside this girl's head!
