Chapter 382 - THE EVENT
Tonight was the night where everyone who worked in the jewelry trade, especially diamonds, would gather to attend a leading diamond exhibition.
Of course, as companies dwelling in the same field, the Tatum and Dawson companies would be invited as well.
And that meant Hailee would? meet with Giana and exchange 'greetings' at the event.
This particularly attracted public attention as this was the first time for Hailee to appear in public since the scandalous news surrounding her husband, regarding the affair between Giana Dawson and Ramon Tordoff, surfaced.
And news on the 'epic' moment where Hailee Tordoff met Giana Dawson was far more interesting than the news of tonight's diamond show.
The reporters who came were certainly ready to aim their cameras and capture every moment when Hailee and Giana met for the first time.
Actually, this didn't bother Hailee at all, in fact, she had been waiting for this moment to meet Giana.
She wouldn't stop until she got the attention she wanted and Hailee was more than willing to give it to her.
"I want to go to the party, too," Ramon said, kissing Hailee's nape, teasing her so slyly that she would let him come with her.
However, Hailee didn't want to involve Ramon in this. "This is a woman to woman business, you better stay out of this."
Ramon chuckled when he heard this. "I promise not to interfere, even if you fight Giana until you two start scratching each other, I will not intervene."
Hailee turned her body and wrapped her arms around Ramon's neck, looking at the man with a seductive expression. "Is that true? If I fight with Giana, you won't help me."
"Of course not." But, then Ramon added, "I think Pyro and David are enough to bring that woman to her knees."
Hailee laughed when she heard that. "That's called an unfair fight."
"I don't care about 'fair' when it comes to my wife," Ramon said very softly, like a whisper, then his hands went down Hailee's thighs as he lifted her slowly.
"I don't have time for this, I might be late," Hailee warned Ramon, but she let her husband caress her skin very gently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"So, what if you are late? Weren't you just going to teach her a lesson?" Ramon asked while tracing Hailee's inner thighs, making the woman's breath catch and this made Ramon even more daring. "You want this too, honey..."
"No..." Hailee refused with a hoarse voice, while her body betrayed her instantly.
And when Ramon stopped what he was doing, Hailee opened her eyes and glared at her husband.
"Why?" Ramon asked with a smile on his lips. "Didn't you say to stop it?"
Hearing that, Hailee became sullen. Sometimes women would be hard to understand, there would be times when they say one thing, when they actually want another.
But, this time, Ramon knew exactly what Hailee wanted. "Let me tag along, then I will give you what you want."
Hailee pursed her lips. "No," she said in a shaky voice as Ramon again traced his hand purposely over Hailee's chest. This man really was a tempter!
"No?" Ramon then did it again and saw Hailee's eyes that shone with annoyance, but also a ferocious pent-up desire at the same time. "Are you sure about your answer?" This time, Ramon lowered his head and landed a kiss in between the girl's shoulder blades. "You don't want to change it?"
Hailee bit her lip. "Make me change my mind then…" Hailee whispered while smiling mischievously at her husband.
This was indeed a coercive way that both of them liked very much, when their egos and desires were at odds with each other, but both of them certainly knew the game well.
"Oh, of course..." Ramon said. "I will not only change your mind, but also that arrogant attitude of yours."
Hailee laughed. Compared to Ramon, she was far from arrogant. This man was just flattering himself…
"Then how are you going to change my mind?" Hailee asked, and then placed her hands on Ramon's broad chest, giving him a look that invited her husband to do more than this.
Of course, that always worked, because as always happened, Ramon immediately picked up Hailee's body, but this time, he didn't take her to their bed, and instead sat Hailee down on the round table in the middle of the room.
"Don't ruin my dress," Hailee warned Ramon. She didn't want to bother looking for dresses later.
Hearing that, Ramon just gave his wife a meaningful smile. "I don't promise, it depends on how you handle me…"
And after saying that, Ramon immediately knelt before Hailee, while his eyes locked on his wife's long legs.
Ramon was like a poet who had just found his favorite verse and he was about to immerse himself in the stanzas.
And as Hailee had expected, she would be late for the event.
================
"I'm really mad at you Hailee," Ramon said over the phone. He really couldn't believe that after all this time being together, Hailee had still managed to trick him.
Ramon didn't know whether he should be proud or annoyed at his naughty wife.
Ramon said that he was going to take a quick shower and change clothes after their hot 'persuasion' session, but Hailee just left the house and had the audacity to tell the bodyguards, who would come with her, to take all the ten cars that Ramon had parked in his garage.
And to get another car, it would take some time, meanwhile, Hailee was already halfway to the party.
"I will grant all your wishes when I get back home," Hailee said, holding back a smile because she could still hear Ramon's grumbling voice.
"I don't know what to do with you," Ramon said in a defeated tone. He took a deep breath, "Tell me if you need anything and come home as soon as that d*mned party is over."
"Hey, you're using harsh words on me," Hailee complained, even though she knew the words weren't directed at her.
"Sorry honey, I'm just upset that I can't be in the same frame with you in the news tomorrow morning." Ramon reasoned.
"Good reason Ramon," Hailee said lightly. "Okay, I'm almost there, I'll turn off the phone."
"Hmm, have fun," Ramon said.
After that, the phone line was disconnected, of course Hailee would 'have fun' in this event.
"Ramon?" Candice asked when Hailee had just finished turning off her phone.
Hailee turned to Candice and smiled shyly. "Yes…"
Candice smiled with her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmToday, Hailee deliberately invited Candice to this gemstone show, because she knew that Candice liked this field, but her family didn't approve of it.
"You shouldn't have asked me," Candice said. "I haven't kept up with the latest fashion and read news about developments in the industry."
"Oh, stop that..." Hailee said in a rebuking voice. "You wouldn't be here if you didn't want to."
Hailee knew very well how stubborn Candice was, so how could she persuade Candice if she didn't want to come? After all, she was not a child who could be easily coaxed.
Hearing Hailee's answer, Candice couldn't help but grin in resignation. Well, she was a little interested. Just a little…
"You're going to get me in trouble if they find out I'm on this show," Candice muttered. While in front of them, there were already many luxury cars queuing up to park.
The building that would be the venue for the event was a five-star hotel skyscraper which was one of the well-known hotels in city A.
"They won't be mad if you say you were with your sister-in-law," Hailee said teasingly. She was happy to see Candice blush when she said that.
"Oh, please… nothing is certain in my relationship with Lexus. We just met." Candice shrugged, trying to be nonchalant. "It's too soon to say that this relationship is something serious."
Hailee laughed when she heard Candice's rebuttal. She should have known how short Hailee's relationship with Ramon was when they finally decided to get married.
Well, it seemed that it would be a story for the two of them and would not be told to anyone else…
"Are you sure you want to see Giana Dawson?" Candice finally asked worriedly.
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be here." If it weren't for that reason, Hailee would definitely be in Ramon's arms right now, instead of being in the crowd and under the flashes of news-hungry reporters.
=================
Giana looked at the hotel building that would be the venue for the event, but what she saw was not a magnificent hotel building, but a place where she would meet Hailee.
Giana had confirmed many times that the representative of the Tatum company was Hailee Tordoff and not the board of directors of the company.
Gianna narrowed her eyes. She didn't know what she was going to show her to be so brave to face her. But, what was certain was that Giana would teach her a valuable lesson so that the girl would stop being arrogant and think that she could win this fight.
Of course Giana would not let that happen.
She would see Hailee getting humiliated in front of the crowd with the news that had spread in the mass media.
And as for Giana, she wasn't afraid to lose anything anymore, no matter how harsh the criticism she would receive, she didn't care about any of that anymore.
As long as she could take down Hailee and Ramon, then that would be enough for her to avenge this heartache....
