Hailee turned off her phone before Lexus got into the car, but not before saying something to the gatekeeper for a while.
"What now?" Hailee asked, her small face full of concern.
Hailee didn't need much consideration in her plans this time, because thinking too much about it wouldn't do anything good for her now. Sometimes words like; think less, do more, were very necessary and this was what Hailee want to do.
If Lexus couldn't take her out, then Hailee would find a way to get out of this residence, tonight. After all, Ian would come to meet her in town A.
"Okay, let's go now," Lexus said with a happy smile.
Hailee was quite surprised when Lexus managed to get them out of the house fairly easily. "Is it true? Ramon agreed to let you take me out?"
"More or less," Lexus replied, grimacing.
Actually what Lexus did was; he called Lis and briefly told what happened. Perhaps, the way Lexus phrased the situation might have been too much. He added that Hailee looked depressed after her fight with Ramon and Lexus would take her out for a while to get some fresh air.
Of course Lis could understand the turn of events, especially after finding out that Ramon did all that without telling Hailee first. Never mind Hailee, even she was shocked by the news.
Ramon previously changed his decision from an engagement ceremony to a wedding ceremony. And now, the originally planned private wedding banquet with only close confidants was revealed to the public, just like that.
Maybe something indeed went wrong with Ramon when the accident happened. Maybe Ramon should go for a follow-up and should be thoroughly diagnosed whether he really was capable of making up his own decisions.
Why was each of his decisions nowadays were so absurd and so far from his previous character?
"More or less?" Hailee frowned in confusion at Lexus, but the man just ignored her.
"You don't need to know the details," said Lexus as he restarted the engine. "We have to get out of here…" before Ramon realized that Hailee and he had left. However, Lexus did not say the last sentence out loud.
Ramon did have some influence, but Lis, as the head of the family controlling this household from much earlier than Ramon, after the death of their father, was naturally more respected by the servants and guards at the Tordoff residence.
However, Lexus would have to face trouble, the trouble named his brother's 'wrath' when he got home later.
Well, he could think about that later, for now he just wanted to cheer up his future sister-in-law and also, Lexus didn't want to look bad in front of Hailee because he had already promised her to take her out.
==============
Because it was late at night, Lexus decided to take Hailee to a bar to get her relaxed, maybe with a few drinks in her system, Hailee won't look so upset anymore.
At least that was the only solution Lexus could think of, because that was what he always did with the women he went with.
"You're old enough to go to places like this, right?" asked Lexus, as he parked the car and turned off the engine.
"Of course," Hailee replied, removing the seat belt and opening the door.
Granted, Hailee didn't go to places like this very often, but Ian did take her to bars a few times and Hailee would always stay close to her friend if she was going to places like that.
"Good then," Lexus then got out of his car and stashed the keys in his pocket before walking beside Hailee.
It was at this time that Hailee saw the name of the place and remembered something about the Tordoff family, she got this information while looking for more details about Ramon Tordoff.
