It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 345 - SHE IS OKAY



Candice had been trying to wake Lexus up for about thirty minutes now, but the man wouldn't wake up and she didn't know what else she needed to do to stir him awake now…

Ugh…

Candice really had a feeling that tonight luck was getting away from her and this kept Candice grumbling for the next ten minutes until she remembered something.

Isn't Hailee the sister-in-law of Lexus Tordoff? Since she married this annoying man's older brother?

And Candice had her number.

Yes, Hailee gave her personal number the last time they met at a café, where Hailee offered her a job as a jewelry designer in her family's company.

Candice was supposed to meet Hailee again at Tordoff's company anniversary party, but because Hailee couldn't make it due to health reasons, she actually met Lexus instead..

And Candice couldn't say that it was a pleasant meeting for the two of them. Because like now, Lexus treated her more than casually.

But Candice would think about that later, because right now, she needed someone to get Lexus out of her car so she could go home in peace.

And without much thought, Candice immediately contacted Hailee…

================ 

Hailee held the important document that Ramon had left in her care and read the information on it.

Although Hailee didn't have the compulsion to meddle in Ramon and Leon's affairs, she still felt that she should at least contribute something to this matter…

Although Leon did not directly cause her to lose her first child, all this happened because of him nonetheless.

Meanwhile, Ramon had absolutely no objections in giving Hailee that freedom. His wife can do whatever she wants.

"Did you know that Giana's bodyguards pointed guns at me?" Hailee asked lightly, still staring at the documents in her hands. She made her voice sound like she didn't really care about that fact, even though she was actually waiting for Ramon's reaction.

"Pointing a gun at you?" Ramon reached out and pinched Hailee's chin with his index finger and thumb. He then looked intently into Hailee's eyes and then at Barry who was driving. "I didn't know about this."

Ramon's voice sounded deep and dangerous as he uttered his last sentence. He was annoyed that no one had told him such an important thing until Hailee said it herself.

Weren't they paid to inform him of dangerous things going on around his wife?

"That… sorry Mr. Tordoff, I…" Barry stuttered a little when he caught Ramon's piercing gaze in the rearview mirror and suddenly felt his throat was parched. It was terrifying to have Ramon stare like this…

However, Hailee then put her hand on the side of Ramon's face and made him turn to stop torturing her new bodyguard. Hailee wasn't saying this to get other people into trouble.

"No problem, I'm fine… they protected me well." Hailee added 'rescue points' to her bodyguard. "I provoked Giana first."

Seeing how Ramon reacted, she was quite happy to find the man so angry for her.

"Stop doing such dangerous things Hailee," Ramon muttered. His forehead wrinkled.

Hearing that answer, Hailee blinked her eyes and looked at him innocently. "But, I like it. It feels good to be able to treat Giana like that."

"Honey…" Ramon sighed.

But, before they could continue the topic, Hailee's cell phone rang. Not many knew her number, so Hailee felt that the call was important enough to distract her from Ramon.

"Candice?" Hailee said when she saw the caller's name listed there. "Hello?" Hailee said into the phone.

And a moment later Candice's relieved voice was heard. "Hailee. You have to come here right now."

"What is it?" Hailee's forehead wrinkled and this made Ramon pay attention to what Hailee was talking about with whoever the caller was.

"Your brother-in-law, Lexus Tordoff, is in my car. And he is hopelessly drunk. He even locked me outside." Candice then added. "You need to get here before the reporters find us."

Candice did manage to shrug off the reporters chasing after them, but that didn't mean they weren't coming back any time soon.

If they found Candice and Lexus here, maybe Candice wouldn't even dare look at the news tomorrow morning.

It sucks to get involved in a scandal and make it into the news.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Hailee then hung up after finding the gas station where Candice and Lexus were.

"What is it?" asked Ramon as Hailee gave Barry a different aim as they were almost at the Tordoff residence.

"Lexus..." Hailee then briefly told what Candice had told her earlier.

Ramon immediately fell silent. He forgot about Lexus...

He didn't pay much attention to his brother because Lexus didn't show any signs of being bothered by the news about him being Leon Dawson's son. He even stepped forward to help out in this case.

However, it actually made Ramon think that Lexus was actually fine and didn't need a serious conversation about this.

Seems like Ramon misread his brother's actions…

================ 

Several cars immediately docked beside a small yellow car, where Candice was waiting for them, sitting on the side of the road. Looking more than annoyed.

"Candice," Hailee immediately greeted her friend and then Candice pointed at her car, where Lexus had been fast asleep. "Ramon will handle it."

Some of Ramon's bodyguards then tried to pry out Candice's car window and open the door.

Meanwhile, Ramon did not allow the other bodyguards to approach Lexus, and carried his younger brother into the car himself.

Lexus seemed to be muttering something as his brows furrowed. He looked pale from drinking too much, so his body gave off a strong smell of alcohol.

Even Hailee herself felt that she would get dizzy just by smelling the air around him.

"You can call Hailee about the repairs," Ramon said to Candice after he put Lexus in the car and walked over to Candice. "Thanks for taking care of him."

Well, Candice wouldn't say she had taken care of Lexus, because she didn't really want to do that. It was simply because the situation forced her to do so.

"Ah, no problem..." Candice said with a small smile at Ramon. Then she looked at Hailee and her smile was replaced with sympathetic eyes. "I'm sorry for your loss."

"It's fine…" Hailee wasn't too happy to be reminded of that.
