"Ramon!" Hailee chided and glared at the man who was laughing and opened the car door for her.
Has he drunk too much? Why does he seem to enjoy teasing Hailee so much? And his words became much… bolder.
If one looked at it, Ramon really enjoyed their time together this time around and became much more relaxed, it's just that his attitude changed to one hundred and eighty degrees and this made Hailee feel a little overwhelmed in response to this change in his attitude.
"Hurry up ... I am really tired." This time Ramon grumbled as he nudged Hailee's body lightly to get her into the car.
Huh, who made him tease Hailee all the time?
Grunting, Haillee got into the car and slumped herself down. She felt her sleepiness had long disappeared into thin air. Meanwhile, Ramon turned around the car and got behind the wheel.
It seemed that this last trip would only be a journey for the two of them, at least in the car, because behind them, it was certain that there were about two cars with four bodyguards following them discreetly.
Well, at least Hailee didn't need to be afraid that in the middle of the road they would suddenly get robbed in the middle of the night.
Then, it will be a very unpleasant honeymoon if that was the case.
They were practically in the middle of nowhere.
"Where is this?" Hailee asked Ramon who started the car. She looked out the windshield, and greeted by the endless darkness that enveloped them and the valleys hugging the small tarmac. "Hey, Mr. Tordoff. Where did you kidnap me to?" Hailee asked again after Ramon turned a corner and drove out of there, onto the main road.
"Crestgold Island," Ramon answered curtly. He rubbed his tired face and then smiled at Hailee, as if this was a secret that had just been exposed.
However, Hailee didn't understand where the surprise actually lied. "I have never heard the name of this island."
"Of course not," Ramon replied, refocusing on the road in front of him, but every now and then he would glance at his wife's expression.
"You rented a place on this island for our honeymoon?" Hailee guessed, her forehead creased slightly.
"Close, but not quite right," Ramon replied, the glow in his eyes becoming more and more clear.
"You rented the entire island?!" Hailee stared in disbelief. Given the wealth Ramon has, it is not impossible. And after observing him for the last few months, Hailee could conclude that Ramon was quite generous in spending his money.
"It is not quite right to call it renting, though," Ramon said, glancing at Hailee with a meaningful gaze, before he took Hailee's hand and squeezed it.
Ugh! This is so romantic! Driving the car with one hand and holding Hailee's with the other.
Isn't it like his body language was saying that Ramon doesn't want to let Hailee go? Or maybe it was Hailee, who thought too far...
Whatever it was, Ramon's seemingly casual actions actually make Hailee's head spin a little when she thought back.
"You didn't rent this place…" Hailee muttered softly, she glanced back at their interlocked hands and pondered a little. "Don't tell me that you own this island..."
Hailee only said that casually and wasn't really serious about saying it, but since Ramon didn't say anything, she lifted her head and stared at the man beside her wide- eyed as understanding began to dawn upon her.
"Don't say it's true," Hailee whispered with an expression that Ramon found ridiculous. Shouldn't she have guessed this fairly easily?
"Then, I won't say anything." Ramon glanced at Hailee and refocused on the road ahead.
"Ramon, seriously!?" Hailee exclaimed. "You bought this island specifically for our honeymoon?!" If it was true then Hailee would be deeply honored.
But, Ramon then let go of her hand that he was holding and tapped her head lightly. "Don't think too far," he grumbled. "I bought this island a very long time back. This is the first island that I bought under my personal name."
"Oh…" Hailee went 'oh' and was a little disappointed that Ramon didn't hold her hand again, but instead took control of the car.
But then Hailee looked out of the window again and was amazed… she had seen someone buy acres of land or even a very grand house, but had never met someone who bought an island.
And even though it's night time, but Hailee could still see how beautiful this place was and Ramon brought her here…
"Are we going to be the only people living on this island?" Hailee asked in confusion. She did not see any houses around them, even though the roads they passed were already very good with adequate lighting, it seemed that Ramon wanted to maintain the beauty of this island by not building too much here.
"Of course not." Ramon laughed in his distinctive style. "This is a tourist spot, it is just that we are in a different part of the island which is not too crowded. Some tourists come here for surfing and vacations."
"Are you going to surf with me?" Hailee asked enthusiastically, looking back at Ramon with hopeful eyes.
"Can you surf?" Ramon asked back and saw from the corner of his eye Hailee shaking her head with a grin.
"Teach me," she said.
"Sure." Ramon agreed. "We have arrived," he informed her.
Hailee turned her head very fast and looked straight ahead. In the direction Ramon pointed.
