It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 27: NEWS IN THE MORNING

In the days that followed, Ramon stopped bothering Hailee with questions about her past and often stayed at the office more, finishing business proposals and catching up with the memory of the four years he had lost.

Ramon was too busy to have time for Hailee, but that didn't mean the girl could casually enjoy the time and plan her escape plans.

On the contrary…Hailee was preoccupied with their wedding plans, which, she didn't want at all but, had no reason to refuse.

It's not that Hailee wasn't trying to negotiate this with Ramon, but that man had a million reasons to break Hailee's words.

Of course, Hailee, who was inexperienced in matters of debating and negotiating, had to accept the defeat with an irritated heart when Ramon was being adamant and unpersuaded in understanding to postpone their marriage.

"6 months," Hailee offered.

This morning she entered Ramon's room by force and surprised the man who was changing clothes.

So far, no one had ever dared to enter Ramon's room without his consent, therefore, Ramon was not used to locking the bedroom door. And, of course, Hailee was completely unaware of the unwritten rule.

Luckily this time Ramon had put on his white shirt and was choosing the right tie for him to wear. Or… can you say that Hailee was out of luck? Because if she had arrived earlier, maybe the scenery would be even more interesting ...

"Instead of a week, I can take you to record our marriage now if you keep talking about this," Ramon bluffed in an even voice. His fingers traced the rows of ties in a glass case and selected a gray tie. He had an important meeting in an hour or so. "Put it on."

"What?" Hailee was shocked when she saw something thrown at her and instinctively caught it before it could hit her face.

Ramon walked over to Hailee who was sitting on the edge of the bed. "Put it on," he repeated.

"I can't," said Haile, looking at the gray tie in her hand a frown was etched on her beautiful eyebrows. In all her life she never had to dress anyone, nor knew how to.

Then, Ramon's hand stretched out and pulled Hailee up to her feet. Now that they were facing each other, Hailee just realized how tall Ramon actually was.

Hailee was not exactly a short girl, she was of normal height like girls her age. However, standing in front of Ramon, Hailee felt she had to grow a few more inches, which was impossible.

The top of Hailee's head only reached Ramon's shoulders and it troubled her when she had to look at the man closely, because Hailee had to tilt her head up.

"I told you I couldn't," Hailee protested.

"Then learn," interrupted Ramon. He grabbed Hailee's hand that was still holding the tie and draped it around his neck. "Well."

One more thing Hailee realized from Ramon today, he turned out to be someone who was able to treat women gently. Despite his voice that sounds harsh and cold at times, but when he told Hailee what she had to do to tie the knot, he was so patient and calm.

"Understood?" asked Ramon. He stared at the girl in front of him in annoyance that Hailee didn't seem to notice.

And sure enough, Hailee shook her head shyly. "No," she said in a voice that was almost a whisper.

"Are you actually listening?" grumbled Ramon as he adjusted his tie and walked toward the nightstand where he kept all his ties and took one, then threw it again at Hailee. "Learn it, I wish you could do it tomorrow."

"What?" Hailee raised the silver tie in her hand and frowned in displeasure.

"I'll go now." Ramon approached Hailee and kissed her head before he walked out of the room.

This had now became common gesture, he had been doing since the last three days when Hailee always bothered him every morning to discuss the same thing again and again. Therefore, Hailee didn't feel anything strange. She just thought that Ramon used to do it to his real lover so it became a habit for him.

Hailee chased after Ramon out of the room. She was standing on the threshold while looking down, where Ramon had just descended the stairs. "Wait, you haven't had breakfast," she said. "You have to take medicine!"

"You're making me late, I'll have breakfast later," Ramon replied, not heeding Hailee's warning at all.

"Huh, whatever," grumbled Hailee as she walked back into her room in annoyance. She only hoped that Ramon would really take the medicine, because if Ramon got sick, Lis would immediately ask Hailee.

It seemed that Lis was a motherly figure who was very overprotective of her children. But, on the other hand, Lis was also seen as a female leader who was worthy of admiration.

Based on the information Hailee gathered, before Ramon took over the company when their father left, Lis was the one who clashed with the other heads of the Tordoff family in order to secure a leadership position in the company for Ramon. Before Ramon could be considered mature enough to take up his current position.

However, Lis's struggle was not in vain and it was all proven by all the success that Ramon had successfully achieved. And all these achievements have succeeded in closing out discordant voices that were still in opposition to Ramon.

"Hold on," muttered Hailee as soon as she got to her room. "Wasn't I going to talk about marriage matters earlier? Then why do I have to learn how to drap a tie now?" Hailee looked at the silver tie in her hand and felt really stupid.

This was not the first time Ramon had distracted her and made Hailee stop talking about what she should have said.

Ugh!

"Ah never mind! I'll try again tonight after he gets home from work, "Hailee grumbled.

Then, after she had finished showering and changed clothes, she went downstairs to make breakfast for herself.

It's not that the servants there weren't providing any food for her, but Hailee preferred to prepare her own food.

Leaping the steps to the kitchen, Hailee passed the reading room, where the television was on and showing a news channel.

A name was heard by Hailee from the news broadcast which brought her steps to a halt.

Hailee stood in front of the reading room door that was half open and listened to what the beautiful news anchor had to say.

And of the many words she said, there was only one name that made Hailee's heart beat faster.

Roland Dimatrio.
