Chapter 86 - WHY ARE YOU BLUSHING?
"I didn't expect your meeting to be so cliché like that..." Margaretha looked a little disappointed, but seeing Liz walking over, her face was cheerful again. She then shared what Ramon had told her about his first meeting with Hailee.
Switched onto gossiping style.
If Lis was famous for her assertiveness in the business world and was able to take over and manage the company very well after the death of her husband, then Margaretha was known for her magical hands in creating amazing works through her dresses.
People out there would not have thought that these two high-class socialite women had this side too, because they were both famous in their respective business and no one would be able to deny this fact.
"Accident?" Lis asked while raising her eyebrows, she looked at Hailee and Ramon alternately. "You have never told this to me before."
Ramon casually sipped his coffee, while Hailee could only smile.
"There's nothing to tell, nothing is special about our first meeting," Ramon said, then looked at Hailee, who then forced out a laugh.
"Yes, right..." she said affirmatively.
Ramon had told Margaretha that Hailee accidentally bumped him with the car she was driving and it was the start of their meeting, but Ramon refused to tell any further about this.
Knowing Ramon's nature, of course Margaretha could understand. However, her eyes flashed with obvious curiosity toward Hailee. This woman would definitely find out more.
"Then, how do you guys started keeping in touch?" asked Lis, who had the same curiosity.
It's not entirely wrong about the accident, it's just that the story was very different from what actually happened.
"I asked for her number to pay for my treatment," replied Ramon casually.
Hearing this, Lis almost choked on the green tea she was drinking. Since when would her son ask for treatment fees, especially when he was all fine?
However, Margaretha picked up on something else and started teasing Ramon and Hailee. "Ah, I know!" She clapped her hands happily when she heard that. "Is it love at first sight? You saw Hailee and was looking for an excuse to see her again?"
Lis, who felt a little disappointed when Ramon said stingy things like asking for treatment fees, immediately had the same thoughts as her best friend.
"Is it true?" asked Lis.
On the other hand, Hailee could only grimace inwardly. How could these two middle-aged women change their attitudes to teenagers? Love at first sight? Who would still do that in modern times like this?
"Yes, you could say that," Ramon answered again with the same tone. This time, it was Hailee who was choking on the food she was chewing. "Are you okay?" asked Ramon while handing a glass of mineral water to Hailee, who was staring at him fiercely, as if to say;
Love at first sight? Oh, please! Who would believe that bullshit?!
"Right, right? They must have experienced love at first sight…" Margaretha sighed with an adoring gaze at Ramon. As if she had just found a new dream person besides her husband. "Love at first sight actually exists."
Hailee: "…"
==============
"Didn't you say that you couldn't come?" Hailee asked in an inquiring tone as they headed back to Margaretha's boutique.
While the fashion designer was walking in front of them with Liz, Hailee and Ramon following behind, far enough from them that their conversation couldn't be heard.
"I decided to come," Ramon answered, glancing at the girl next to him.
"Why? Because you wanted to see me in that dress before anyone else could?" Hailee asked, taking Ramon's arm and clinging on to him, like a spoiled girlfriend.
Ramon was smiling so charmingly, but his words really made Hailee want to scratch his handsome face. "I just wanted to make sure you were wearing something appropriate for the event."
Hearing that, Hailee stopped clinging to Ramon and glared at him. "Something appropriate?" she asked in a hissing voice.
What does he mean by something appropriate? Isn't this dress made by Margaretha Lamos? The Diva? How could anything go wrong? Moreover, to the stage of 'inappropriate'. What kind of statement is that?
"What do you mean inappropriate? How could it be inappropriate?" Hailee then narrowed her eyes. "Could it be that you underestimate the Diva's works?"
Ramon didn't answer, he only glanced at the girl next to him, without giving any reaction or change in his facial expression.
Seeing this, Hailee got upset and decided to teach Ramon a little lesson.
"Mrs. Lamos," called Hailee. "He was ..."
But, before Hailee could finish her sentence, Ramon had covered her mouth with his big hand.
Poor girl…
Meanwhile, Margaretha and Lis, who were walking in front of them, immediately turned their heads and saw the scene, the fashion designer immediately giggled with amusement. "What is wrong?" she asked.
Meanwhile, Lis could only be amazed to see what had happened. She didn't think that Ramon could be so childish like this.
But, then a smile spread across her lips. It reminded her of herself and Ramon's father when they were young. Indeed, with the right person, you can transform even the coldest and most indifferent people.
"What do you want to say?" Margaretha asked, still laughing softly at the behavior of the two of them. But, because Ramon still didn't take his hand off of Hailee's mouth, the poor girl couldn't say anything.
"Nothing, Hailee was just playing around," Ramon said with a smile, a moment later, he bent over and kissed the top of Hailee's head and made the girl cast a sharp gaze at him.
Especially when hearing the choked laughter of Margaretha and Lis, who then said, "Let's just leave the two lovebirds. Young people these days..." Margaretha clicked her tongue as she shook her head and pulled Lis away from Ramon and Hailee.
Seeing that her efforts to get away from Ramon were only in vain, Hailee stopped struggling because now the two of them had caught the attention of several people, who were staring at her with envious eyes and a knowing smile, as if Hailee wanted this.
Therefore, Hailee decided to shut up and lick Ramon's palm, until the man gasped and immediately let go.
"Hailee!" Ramon exclaimed, his voice furious.
However, Hailee didn't focus on the tone of his voice, but the face of the man. "Why is your face so red?"
