Ramon's words made Hailee smile and move her body closer to this man. She didn't know what she had done, for her to get Ramon as her husband.
Maybe, because of what she had been through and all the sufferings Hailee had gone through had brought Ramon to her.
If that was the case then Hailee wouldn't complain if she had to repeat the bad times all over again. It's not that Hailee wanted to experience all those for the second time, but she would feel better knowing that a guy like Ramon was the one she would get and not a coward like Theodore.
"I love you…" Hailee whispered into Ramon's ear, which automatically made the man smile more widely. Getting rid of his last negative thoughts, as he kissed Hailee on the forehead gently.
"I love you too..." Immediately his annoyance at Theodore just disappeared and now he felt calm again with his wife beside him, feeling comfortable with the warmth radiating from Hailee's body.
While outside, it started to rain. The sound of raindrops hitting the car windows lulled Hailee and Ramon the rest of their long journey back home, to the Tordoff residence.
Tonight will be a long night ...

Zia was staring at her cellphone screen, because since earlier Aidan had not stopped to call her.
It didn't take a smart person to know what Aidan was going to talk to her about, because she knew what he wanted to say.
Remembering Zia's last remark, which was giving Aidan a condition to part with Giana so that they would be together, it didn't need to be said that that was what Aidan would discuss if Zia picked up this phone call.
Actually, the decision that Zia had to make was very simple. Wasn't this what she wanted? Reconnecting with Aidan and being able to freely publicize their relationship?
And now she could do it ...
But, why did Zia feel that there was something stuck in her heart?
Something that had to do with the fact that Aidan had slept with Aileen bothered her a lot.
Zia tried to focus on the fact that there was a chance that her and Aidan's relationship could work out, but when she remembered that, Aileen's face flashed back to her mind and crushed her hopes.
It turned out that things were more serious than what Zia thought...
Again, the number of missed calls on Zia's phone had increased by one and she knew leaving things like this wouldn't make matters better.
Knowing Aidan, the man wouldn't stop in his attempt to get what he wanted.
Maybe Zia should just face all this and decide what's best for the two of them.
And as she had previously thought, the phone call happened again. This time Zia picked up the call.
"Aidan, I think we should talk," Zia said without greeting with a 'hello' as her opening sentence.
Silence followed her words, but then Aidan's voice spoke with relief. "Come out, I am in front of your house."

Ramon had been trying to shake Hailee's body, trying to wake her up, but it seemed that Hailee was too fast asleep and Ramon didn't have the heart to interrupt her dream, so he chose the last option he had; carrying his wife to their bedroom.
This wasn't a big deal for Ramon, and Hailee's body wasn't heavy either.
So, in one fluid motion, Ramon lifted his wife princess style and carried her up to their room on the second floor.
Upon hearing the car door closing and feeling the cold night air, Hailee's body shivered slightly and she awoke for a moment, only to put her arms around Ramon's neck and then fall back asleep again in her husband's arms.
Looking at Hailee's sleeping face and slightly parted lips, Ramon could feel a smile blooming on his own lips.
Perhaps the beginning of this marriage was a business relationship where Ramon was looking to profit from marrying Hailee, but after spending quite a bit of time with this woman, Ramon felt comfortable having her by his side and it was an undeniable feeling.
Now that feeling was clearer.
It was just that, there was another feeling bothering him. His random dreams about that women from his past… Giana.
Yes, the last few days Ramon had been dreaming about that woman. Nothing significant, just a flash of imagery or a memory of a scene Ramon felt had happened between the two of them.
And having dreams like those were making Ramon feel uncomfortable.
His mind continued to wonder, questioning the past that was lost in his memory. But, on the other hand, Ramon didn't want to remember. He felt that it was enough to live in the present together with Hailee.
This is all quite confusing...
==============
Hailee felt bothered as her body felt hot, although she could still feel the cold air blowing from the air conditioner against her skin.
