It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 112: THE AUCTION (2)

Giana was really surprised when she saw Ramon sitting in the front row in the auction.

Earlier, when Dillon, her personal assistant and someone who knew her well, told Giana about it, she did not believe it, because Ramon did not usually attend events like this.

Giana thought, she would find Lexus Tordoff as usual, who would usually fill out invitations and socialize with important people in every event, because Lexus is the social butterfly between the two of them.

Of course, Giana didn't care about the additional information that Dillon told her about Hailee, Ramon's partner whereabouts.

Giana didn't care about that girl, as long as she could see Ramon and get time to talk to him, then whoever he brought along didn't matter to her.

And suddenly Giana was nervous, because Ramon would watch her from where he was sitting latter. The five well- known families in city A had the honor of sitting in the front row of seats, and that also meant that Giana would have a chance to see Ramon more clearly.

She is really excited.

Giana applied her lipstick over and over again and groomed herself in front of the mirror, seeing how she looked, to the point even boring Dillon had to say that she looked amazing.

'There will be no man who can resist your charm.'

That's what Dillon said before Giana finally stopped asking questions and looked like a teenager about to have her first date.

And the first thing Giana did was look for the figure of Ramon in the front row. It was not a difficult job, because Ramon's figure was so eye- catching and the fact that he was sitting in the middle made him face Giana directly, making the woman even more enthusiastic.

It was just that, catching a glimpse of Hailee was a little annoying and the girl was deliberately leaning herself against Ramon, while showing something.

Giana tried to ignore it, but every time she wanted to focus on the course of the event, her eyes accidentally returned to look for Ramon's figure.

And everything was turned worse by the fact that Hailee kissed Ramon and the man did not seem to mind the gesture at all.

Giana's frustration peaked when Hailee looked at her prophetically.

This little girl really should be taught a lesson…

==============

"Aileen, you should have told me that girl has Ramon Tordoff backing her!" Roland growled in annoyance and slammed his fist against the table, making a loud thumping sound and alerting the guards around, in case the district attorney would attack the woman in front of him.

"You think I would know what Ramon Tordoff is going to do?" Aileen returned the middle-aged man's words fiercely. "Who would have thought that Hailee had connections with Ramon Tordoff?"

Roland Dimatrio snorted, he wasn't satisfied with that answer.

"I told you about Ramon Tordoff, after all, and you insisted on continuing this." Aileen crossed her arms and stared at the guard walking into the room, indicating that visiting hours were up and she needed to leave immediately.

But, before the guard could get any closer, Aileen immediately threw up a short question.

"Are you sure your son can get you out of prison?" Aileen looked doubtful.

"As long as the trial takes place within his territory, he can decide that I'm innocent." It was a short answer and explained nothing. Because the trial process would be very complicated and no one knew how the final result would turn out.

"It's good if you have that belief. I just want to remind you of one thing; don't involve me." Aileen clenched her jaw.

This was her last meeting with Roland and she had to make sure that this old geezer of a man wouldn't open his mouth about their business.

"If not?" Roland asked Aileen defiantly, with a sly smile etched on his lips. "I've already been crushed like this, what else should I be afraid of?"

"Yes, your career and your life have been ruined, but your son doesn't know anything, right?" Aileen grinned. "If you mention my name, or get me in trouble because of this, then I will not hesitate to drag your son into the puddle with me too."

Roland narrowed his eyes. He didn't like it when someone threatened his family. "You are much more petty and cunning than I thought."

"You have to learn a lot more then." Aileen then got up from her chair.

This woman had really offended Roland's pride by saying that. "You think an adopted child like you can fight a real heir and a Ramon Tordoff for Tatum Jewelry?"

Hearing the insult, Aileen narrowed her eyes. "At least my chances are bigger than yours, because I am out there and can do a lot."

After Aileen finished saying that, the guard stood beside Roland Dimatrio and announced that the time was out.

Aileen then nodded at Roland who was still glaring at her.

"Oh, and one more thing…" Aileen stopped Roland as he was about to walk back to his cell. "I will be Mrs. Gevano in a few days. I think you want to congratulate me."

If her plan went smoothly and according to her plan, then it was only a matter of time before Aileen Tatum became Aileen Gevano.

Roland laughed sickly, as if it was a funny news. "Congratulations then, I hope you guys get married before that boy from the Gevano family realizes what you really are like." He shrugged and was still laughing as he walked through the door, leaving Aileen alone there in exasperation.

Aileen clenched her fists tightly and it took her a while to calm down, before she finally walked away.

When Aileen was in the parking lot and got into the car, she had time to check her cellphone, which had been kept in silent mode, because she didn't want her chat with Roland to be interrupted.

When her cellphone screen turned on, she could see that she had received seven missed calls. Two from Theodore and Five from George.

Theodore sent a message asking where she was because he was at Tatum's residence and she was not around.

But, the thing that is far more important now is George. If he called her more than three times in an hour, that meant there is an important issue that needed to be addressed immediately.

Half heartedly, Aileen slid the virtual button and listened to the dial tone.

"Hello?" said Aileen.

"Where are you?" came an aggressive voice from George. "Don't tell me that you have actually visited Roland Dimatrio?! I have forbidden you from doing that!"

George seemed to have a hunch about Aileen's intentions and it was no use for Aileen to lie.

"I have to make sure that Roland will not say anything about me!" Aileen exclaimed irritably.

"YOU ARE SO STUPID!" George roared. "If Ramon finds out about this, then you will be finished! He will trace your involvement deeper with that bastard prosecutor!"

And that was the last thing Aileen heard before she hung up on her phone and screamed in annoyance.

She felt like she was walking on a layer of fragile egg shell. Wrong step and it would crack, left her in precarious situation more than she could imagine.

What George said was true, but Aileen couldn't calm down until she spoke directly to Roland and conveyed her subtle threats, because that was all she could do for now.

Shit!

Everything got messy because of Hailee!

She should have taken George's word and killed her right away!

==============

This was the first auction she had ever attended and if it were not for the tension and annoyance she felt because Giana kept staring at Ramon, then it would be pretty boring.

The only thing Hailee had been waiting for was the tiara to be auctioned off, but it was numbered seventeen on the list, while Giana was currently promoting vigorously for a famous painting that was at number eleven, and that meant she had to wait a little longer.

"I am bored," Hailee sighed, then glanced at Ramon who was sitting calmly next to her. "Aren't you bored?"

"No," Ramon answered curtly and it made Hailee narrow her eyes suspiciously. At first, Ramon wanted to ignore this girl, it was just that, being stared at made him feel quite uncomfortable. "What?" Finally Ramon turned his head.

"Aren't you bored because there is your ex in front of you or because you are not really bored?" Hailee knew she was being childish, but she couldn't help it.

The feeling of boredom and jealousy is really not a good combination.

"Hailee, if you have ever attended an annual meeting, then you should have known that an event like this doesn't mean anything." Ramon said, laughing softly when he saw how Hailee wrinkled her nose, disliking anything related to business.

"Shall we play a game?" Hailee looked at Ramon expectantly.

"Where do you think we are?" Ramon flicked Hailee's forehead lightly.

"Come on," Hailee sulked. "I am going to say something and all you have to do is follow my words. If you can't, you have to give me money. "

Ramon looked hesitant, but Hailee ignored him and started her little game.

"One," Hailee said and looked at Ramon for him to repeat after her.

"One," he said half forced.

"Plus one."

"Plus one."

"Equals three."

"Where did you learn to count like that?" Ramon protested, but then realized his mistake when he saw Hailee laughing in satisfaction.

This girl tricked him easily with her stupid games.
