It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 71: QUARELL

Hailee woke up early in the morning, but you could say she was actually late because when she finally left the room, Ramon was about to leave.

Hailee's original intention was to cook breakfast for Ramon, but because she slept very late last night, she couldn't wake up as early as she wanted.

Therefore, half running, Hailee approached Ramon who was just about to get into his car.

"Ramon!" called Hailee and the man turned around, only to find Hailee who was still wearing her pajamas and with her hair in a mess, scattered in all directions on top of her head. Obviously she only had time to wash her face after waking up.

"What are you doing so early?" Ramon asked with a frown, disliking how Hailee looked now. Not because she looked so 'messy' when she just woke up, but because besides him there was Danny, the driver and someone else who would be going with him.

Actually, Ramon quite liked Hailee's appearance who looked innocent like this ...

On the other hand, Hailee didn't expect that someone else would be there either, so with her eyes wide open, she retreated back into the house.

What Hailee didn't expect was; Ramon followed her.

"What?" he asked in a cold tone that Hailee had grown accustomed to.

"Nothing," Hailee said, shaking her head lightly. "I just wanted to say be careful on the road."

Ramon raised his eyebrows as he folded his arms across his chest. "You got up so early just to say that?" he asked incredulously.

"Well…" Hailee muttered softly, twisting a lock of stray hair shyly. "I was going to make breakfast for you, but because I slept too late, I woke up late too..."

"You're going to make breakfast for me." It's not a question but a statement, Ramon just wanted to confirm that from Hailee.

"Yes," Hailee replied immediately.

"Are you going to make breakfast every day for me?" Ramon asked. He was not expecting forHailee to make him breakfast every day, though, he only wanted to know what this girl's answer would be.

But, Hailee agreed. "If that's what you want, no problem. I like to make breakfast for you."

Ramon laughed softly at that. "What is this? You want something from me? "

"What?" Hailee blinked in disbelief.

"I don't know, anything," said Ramon in a light tone. "I'm used to people expecting reciprocity," he said, looking at Hailee calculatively. "So what do you want?"

Instantly, Hailee understood what Ramon meant by reciprocity, Ramon explained it to her in a nutshell. A business life full of intrigue must have made this man a skeptical figure. Apart from his family, the kindness of others he received must have had its own hidden motives.

But, oh my! Hailee isn't someone else and she will be a part of his family too, very soon for that matter.

"Your life is so boring, huh? So that all you think about is profit and loss?" Hailee asked in a sarcastic tone, now she just became annoyed that her kindness was being questioned. Besides, what's so hard about making breakfast every morning? She also needs to eat breakfast, alright?

Seeing the girl in front of him with such an expression did not necessarily make Ramon react. Instead, he looked at Hailee closely.

"Alright, I just want to say be careful on the road." Hailee pouted, she walked past Ramon while waving her hand nonchalantly. "I wouldn't make you breakfast if you thought I had some motive by doing something good to you."

"Are you doing me good so that I will let you call your best friend?" Ramon was still reluctant to mention Ian's name and he emphasized the word 'best friend', as if he was making fun of it.

Hailee turned around and looked at Ramon fiercely. Why did this man have to mess with her so early in the morning like this? Hailee just wanted to see him off. That was all. Because last night it seemed like their relationship looked good and she wanted to keep it that way.

However, why was Ramon actually making things worse? Their way of thinking was too different...

"I'll keep calling even though you were rude and mean to me," Hailee said and walked toward her room. Leaving Ramon to stand alone there.

This was completely out of plan.

Hailee thought she'd at least get a good morning kiss from Ramon, but instead, they got into a fight.

==============

Hailee stared intently at her new cell phone, as if it was a foreign object she didn't understand how to use.

An hour ago, Martha came to her room and handed over a package.

Hailee thought that after their quarrel this morning, Ramon wouldn't give her the cell phone, but he didn't. He was quite good at buying her a phone with the same model as the two previous phones.

Hopefully this time the cell phone could live a long life unlike its predecessors.

However, what had troubled Hailee all afternoon and evening was; Ramon didn't contact her at all. No messages, no calls.

Granted, along with the cell phone, also included Ramon's personal phone number which only important people and family knew about, but Hailee insisted on not calling the arrogant man first.

It's just that, even after nightfall and Hailee had finished dinner, there was no news from Ramon and this made Hailee grumpy.

'Should I call him first?' Hailee thought as she paced in her room.

She looked back at her cell phone and confirmed that the network was OK. And everything was perfect except that she didn't get the calls from the person she wanted.

In the midst of that hesitation, Hailee then decided to meet someone who could definitely enlighten her.

With this idea she just got, Hailee immediately came out of the room and went looking for Martha who turned out to be in the backyard.

"Yes, what's wrong Miss?" she asked.

"Can someone help me get the car ready? I want to go to Lexus's house," said Hailee.

The Tordoffs' residence was so large that it was a five-minute drive from one house to the other.

"Okay, Miss. You can wait in front," said Martha and went to find a driver for Hailee, although a little curious why Hailee wanted to go to Lexus's house this late night.

This was not the time to visit…

Even so, Hailee hoped he knew his annoying brother well enough and found a way for Hailee to call Ramon without feeling awkward.

Ugh, this sucks!
