It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 269: SUICIDE

"You don't have to come with me if you have a lot of work to do, I can go alone," Hailee rested her head on Ramon's shoulder, while the man wrapped his arms around her waist.

Now the two of them were in the car driving to Zia's house, because Hailee had promised her cousin, and again because she couldn't calm down before seeing how Zia's condition was now.

Uncle Diego's temper could be terrible and Hailee feared that something worse would happen.

"No problem," replied Ramon. "Not too much work in the office at the moment." But, those words would not be spoken by Lexus at this time, because he was the one who had to struggle with Ramon's absence.

Maybe from the outside the two brothers appear to have a quiet life, but not so with their business affairs. Since Tordoff's company had branches in several countries, of course it added work to Tordoff's second son's desk.

"Still I feel bad that Lexus had to work in your stead." Hailee remembered Lexus' expression clearly when Ramon told him to cover for him today. "He looked like he was on the verge of crying."

Ramon laughed softly at the term Hailee used. Maybe this was where the difference in their points of view was, because in Ramon's eyes, Lexus looked more like someone who wanted to beat him. He would have if he was not afraid of his brother.

"You don't have to worry about him, he's been doing his job too superficially, sometimes it's good to train him to be more sensitive," Ramon explained. "This is training for him."

Although Hailee still felt bad for troubling Ramon, she still appreciated how her husband left his job just to accompany her to meet Zia.

And even though Ramon didn't say this, Hailee knew her husband was doing all this because he was worried about Hailee's safety.

Meanwhile, sitting beside the driver's seat was Ian. He was also worried about Zia's situation after seeing the news this morning.

Granted, he wasn't very close to her, but their relationship was pretty good the past few days and Zia had even visited the Arena and watched him fight.

Well, even though she swore never to do it again or watch such a horrible thing, but after Zia's arrival that night, they had communicated several times just to ask how they were.

Ian didn't think that Zia was Aidan's mistress. Not that he was keeping up with the gossip, but because the news was too big to ignore.

In the silent car, suddenly Ramon's cell phone rang and he picked it up on the second ring.

"Hmm, yes. Okay. Do everything you can. Okay." These were the only short words that Ramon uttered before the phone line was cut off.

"Who is that?" asked Hailee. She looked at Ramon's face. "Is there any news regarding the development of Zia's issue?"

"My people are trying to reduce the media's focus on her story and they've managed to remove eighty percent of the story and divert it with other news," Ramon explained curtly.

"What news?" Hailee was curious, because she thought the news about Zia was too significant to be diverted with other news. Is it that easy to distract people nowadays?

Ramon looked at Hailee gently. "News regarding Aileen."

"Aileen?" Hailee adjusted her sitting position to feel more comfortable listening to Ramon's next words. "Which news?"

"Actually I wanted to tell you first before releasing this news, but I haven't had time and I think this is the right time for the news about your sister's fake pregnancy to be known to the public," Ramon explained briefly.

Hailee was wide-eyed, she then said quietly with admiration. "Wow."

"You did plan to release the news, after all, didn't you?" Ramon added.

"Yes," Hailee replied still with an amazed expression. "I didn't think you could take advantage of a situation like this."

"You should have guessed it," Ramon criticized Hailee. Of course these kinds of tricks and gimmicks and manipulations were daily meals for people like Ramon, it was just that Hailee's husband was on a different level.

"I think people's focus is starting to change," said Ramon.

Maybe the effect isn't as big as the news between Giana, Aidan and Zia, because the Gevano family certainly can't be compared to the families from town A, but still Aileen's issue is a shocking headline and people love drama…

"What is it?" Ramon grabbed Hailee's chin and lifted her pensive face. For a moment, Ramon could see the vacant look in his wife's eyes.

"I feel like this is a war in social media, where everyone is trying to bring each other down in a horrible way," Hailee mumbled.

Ramon smiled at Hailee's opinion. "If this is indeed a war, then you should rest easy."

"Why is that?" Hailee frowned in confusion.

"Because you've got the best strategist," said Ramon and this made Hailee smile. "Isn't that the case?"

"I think so too," Hailee replied between laughs.

Ramon was happy to see Hailee being able to laugh again and he was even happier that he was the one who made this woman laugh. He was the reason behind this sweet laugh.

Without hesitation, Ramon pulled Hailee closer and started kissing her.

Hailee let him be, because she thought it was just a short kiss, but who would have thought that Ramon would gently press the back of her head to deepen their kiss?

Hailee intended to push Ramon away because she realized they weren't the only two in the car right now.

Ian and Garry, who was driving, of course wouldn't be able to avoid the sight, but Hailee was powerless against her own will and ended up drowning in Ramon's demanding kiss.

Until Ian finally couldn't stand it and spoke up, surprising Hailee. "Can't you hold back? We're still in this car, you two aren't alone," Ian grumbled.

He wanted to take his eyes off of the shameless couple, but he couldn't. What is wrong with Ramon? Was he doing it on purpose to show that Hailee was his?

"Ah, sorry…" Hailee said shyly, but Ramon then grabbed her face again and started kissing her again. "Ramon…" Hailee complained.

"No need to apologize," Ramon said softly against Hailee's lips, "This is our car, if he doesn't like it, he can get out of the car any time."

Hearing that comment, Garry glanced at Ian's furious expression. How could they stop in the middle of the highway? The only way was; Ian jumping out of the car at this high speed.

Wasn't that tantamount to committing suicide?

The way Ramon got rid of people he didn't like was simply terrible...
