Chapter 381 - YOU CAN HANDLE HER
Ramon didn't really care what the news out there said about him because he didn't feel he had the responsibility to explain his actions.
And Ramon didn't even bother to find out who had leaked his relationship with Giana, because he knew for sure who was behind all this big news.
What missed Ramon's plans and guesses was the fact that Giana might leak this to the public in great detail.
He did not think that what he had done had cornered the woman and did not think long about bringing her down in any way. Even if it meant Giana had to ruin her own reputation.
At this point, Ramon felt that Giana must have known who Ian really was and connected the man to him.
Because otherwise Giana wouldn't have taken such an extreme action. Giana's love and self-respect were the main reasons why Ramon was sure she wouldn't reveal their affair.
However, it turned out that Giana made an unexpected decision and threw everything away. She chose to drag Ramon down with her…
However, all of that was fine with Ramon, but there was one thing that made him feel uneasy.
Hailee…
The woman had known about his affair even before they got married, but now that the affair had become public, it was Hailee who Ramon was very worried about.
He didn't want to hurt his wife and all of that happened before they met, but still Ramon felt that he had betrayed Hailee for doing that.
Now that everyone knew about the affair between Ramon and Giana, Hailee neither provoked him nor said anything to him.
Maybe if Hailee got angry and mad or vented her emotions like Lexus did, Ramon would feel better, but Hailee didn't do any of that.
She stood beside him, clasped their hands, and got ready to get through all this madness together.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd Ramon felt bad that Hailee had to go through it all while his wife didn't deserve such treatment.
"I don't care about the news, I feel bad for you," Ramon whispered in a low voice. He looked into Hailee's eyes and found no hatred there.
"Why do you feel bad for me?" Hailee laughed softly, while rubbing Ramon's face and touching the crease between Ramon's forehead. Her husband looked tired. "I'm fine."
Ramon shook his head. "I'd feel a lot better if you were mad at me."
Hailee laughed when she heard his nonsense. "I didn't know you wanted to see me mad so much," she said teasingly. "I'm fine Ramon. I know the story between you both and I wasn't there at the time."
"I still feel bad," Ramon said in a voice that indicated how bad his mood was right now.
"Hey, you should be the one persuading me not to be gloomy, but why are you the one who looks more gloomy than me?" Hailee complained, but then, her facial expression softened again. "We will get through all of this. We've been through even worse situations and we've managed to get through them all, so we're going to get through this too."
Ramon kissed Hailee's forehead gently, knowing that his wife would always be with him and it was exactly what Ramon needed. He wouldn't ask for anything else but their togetherness...

"You're really crazy Giana," Leon said to his niece after he turned off the television and looked at Giana with questioning eyes. How could his niece, who a few weeks ago was still curled up under the blanket, crying over the departure of Dillon, her personal assistant, was now trying to attack Ramon Tordoff, the man she loved the most?
It was true what people say, that sadness would change a person into a different person.
Leon was just curious, how deep was Giana's sadness that she became a person he couldn't recognize anymore.
"I'll take that as a compliment," Giana said as she took a bottle of alcohol from the fridge and poured its contents into two glasses, one of which she gave to Leon.
"No, I didn't mean to compliment you," Leon said firmly. He downed the glass Giana had given him and felt the drink roll down his throat. "You're an idiot for shooting yourself in the foot while dragging the Dawson family name in mud again," Leon growled.
The plan or action that Giana had just decided on, was more like an act of suicide.
Leon did want to kill Ramon and weaken the family under Ramon Tordoff, but that didn't mean he would let Giana destroy the family completely.
"You're too naive if you think so, uncle," Giana laughed softly, giving her uncle a scornful look. She knew that what Leon worried about was the legacy that would be left to Lexus. That was all that mattered to him, because of course Leon didn't want to leave Lexus with a company that had gone bankrupt. "Ramon Tordoff isn't going to fall down just because of the news."
Leon had indeed studied Ramon for years and devised a plan to put Lexus at the top of power, only things were unexpected, such as; Lexus had absolutely no ambition to take over the Tordoff company and that was something very unfortunate.
As for Giana, two years was not a short time for her to get to know Ramon, of course behind the man's pretense to love her and find out information about Leon. But he could not pretend all the time.
There were times when Ramon also acted as himself and with the intimate relationship between the two of them back then, of course Giana could have read the man a little better. Knowing things Leon didn't know.
"Not really," Leon replied. "But you ruined your own reputation."
Giana narrowed her eyes when she heard that. "Don't you think that you are too greedy? You want Ramon Tordoff to be destroyed but you don't want to take the risk." Giana tapped Leon's shoulder. "You can't get everything uncle. That's not how this unfair world works."
And Giana had felt the injustice of the world in a very bad way.
"Uncle, just do what I ask and we'll both get what we want," said Giana. "I want you to kill Ramon, somehow."
"And you will help me to escape from such action? You want me to believe that?" Leon asked, laughing scornfully at his niece.
"You have no other choice, uncle. You follow my word or you don't, you'll still end up in jail, as soon as I take a step back from your and Ramon's case." Giana then shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "I guess you can't avoid this even with my support. You were proven to have kidnapped Hailee and now they're accusing you of the murder of that key witness."
Leon clenched his jaw tightly when he heard that simple sentence from Giana, which was filled with hidden threats.
"Let's do this well and get the results we want." Giana then raised her glass and touched it to Leon's.

"That woman really is so impudent!" Renfred threw the glass in his hand across the room, until it shattered into pieces as it hit the wall hard. But, he still looked dissatisfied with what he was doing. Renfred felt his pride being trampled on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow could his son be cheated on when they were still married?! News of Giana and Ramon Tordoff's affair was in the news headlines for several weeks and didn't seem to be fading at all as time passed.
In fact, the news went out of control because of the attitude of the Tordoff family who chose to remain silent and did not make any statements. There was no explanation from the Tordoffs or a press conference to straighten this out.
Of course, this news dragged the Smith family into the dirty rumors again.
"Do you know about this?!" Renfred asked his son.
On the other side of the room, Aidan was leaning against the wall, seemingly unconcerned by his father's outburst that had destroyed the entire room, he seemed to be struggling with the cell phone in his hand.
Aidan was facing difficulty meeting Zia or contacting her. He had even waited in front of the Tatum family's house every now and then, but the girl didn't come out at all. And what made him even more furious was the fact that a man named Ian could freely enter and leave the house.
What was the relationship between the two of them?
"AIDAN!" Renfred roared, he then threw a display onto the floor in anger that his son had ignored him.
Aidan just raised his head and looked at his father with an expressionless face. "What do you want me to say? I also had an affair, so I have no opinion on this."
"Don't you feel your self-worth being trampled on?! Or do you really have no self-respect?!" Renfred cried angrily.
Aidan just shrugged his shoulders and glared at his father. "Didn't you choose her to be your daughter-in-law? If anything goes wrong here, then it's on you father."

Hailee was looking at herself in the mirror and applying a bright red lipstick that made her face look much more mature and elegant. In a matching red dress, Hailee gave off a vibe that no one could look down on.
"You look beautiful," Ramon praised, and then slipped his hand around Hailee's slender waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. "I want to come to the party too."
"No," Hailee said firmly. "This is a woman-to-woman affair, you better not interfere. Don't you believe me?"
Ramon laughed when he heard this.. "I'm sure you can handle Giana."
