"I came to pick you up," Ramon said in a relaxed tone, then he opened the car door for Hailee, waiting patiently for her to volunteer and happily step inside.
It is just that, it turned out to be an impossible imagination for Ramon, seeing how Hailee was staring at him so fiercely right now. If possible, Hailee would really like to scratch her husband's face, and make him stop staring at her with that triumphant smile that reflected on his eyes.
Arrghh!!!
Hailee was mad at Ramon! She was utterly speechless!
Hailee's original intention was to tease Ramon and make this man a little jealous. You know… the essence life of being married. It wouldn't be fun if this relationship always went so smoothly.
Every now and then, Hailee wanted to see and test how much Ramon cared for her. Maybe, now Hailee couldn't really say that Ramon had fallen in love with her, but she had a concern as the beginning of their relationship which started off a little weird.
But, who would have thought, that Hailee's original intention to get Ramon worked up would turn into her who was being teased by Ramon.
And what is more, she still had not met Ian and Zia!
"I do not want to!" Hailee backed away from the opened car door with Ramon standing by its side, as if these two things were her enemies. "I don't want to, I want to meet Zia and Ian first," Hailee reiterated her refusal.
"No can do." Ramon shook his head firmly. "You asked me to pick you up, so here I am; to pick you up while ignoring some of my work."
"I am not asking you to neglect your work," Hailee defended herself.
"Oh, but I did it to be able to meet you," Ramon said lightly, still holding the car door open. "Now get in, because soon I have an important meeting that I must attend." Ramon glanced impatiently at the watch latched around his left wrist.
"I don't want to," Hailee said more firmly, insisting that she didn't want to leave with Ramon.
What picking up!? This was not picking her up, but coercing!
"Then…" Ramon shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "If I lose a fantastic project, then I will blame you..."
"What?!" Hailee exclaimed in disbelief at Ramon's childish attitude. "You can't do that to me."
"Then go back to the office with me," Ramon said as he tugged on Hailee's wrist, which she didn't expect this man to do, so she didn't have time to dodge and was successfully pushed into the car without a fight.
"Ramon! I have to meet Ian and Zia, they are on their way here!" Hailee protested again. But unfortunately, the complaint was not heard by Ramon, as he asked the driver to start the car immediately, in order to return to the office quickly. "Ramon, you can't treat me like this!"
Ramon finally turned his attention to his wife who was screaming hysterically and looked like a person who had almost lost her temper. "Then, you can change your meeting place. There are several coffee shops in the building. You can meet them there." Ramon finally came up with a solution.
However, Hailee didn't like how things turned out to be her defeat at all. Thus, she folded her arms across her chest, showing her displeasure.
Hailee was sulking and Ramon could only take a deep breath, feeling confused at himself who had such a high level of tolerance if an issue had anything to do with Hailee.
Then, Ramon stretched out his hand to brush the strands of hair off Hailee's sullen face. "I told you, didn't I? I don't like it when you meet that street fighter again?"
Okay, they came back to this topic again and Hailee was too tired to explain why Ramon shouldn't worry, or to clarify that Ian was not a street fighter. He was in professional stage.
"Zia will be there too, so there is nothing for you to worry about." Hailee sighed. She was subtly enjoying the touch of Ramon on her face and felt 'she was too easy' to be easily persuaded in this way.
Ugh! What else could she do? Hailee liked it when Ramon touched her gently like this, so all the protests she was about to convey were swallowed up instantly.
"I am not worried," Ramon denied. He then looked into Hailee's eyes deeply. "I just do not like it. They are two very different things."
Hailee laughed softly at his statement, then unexpectedly, his wife leaned over to kiss his lips gently.
"If you are jealous, then just tell me straightly Mr. Tordoff," said Hailee.
"Of course not," Ramon denied again and this made Hailee giggle.
Okay, it seemed like an impossible mission for Hailee to make Ramon admit the feeling that felt odd for him.
