It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 237: YOU CAN WAIT AND SEE

There was nothing for Hailee to hide about her pregnancy anymore, because almost every important figure that attended Aileen's wedding already knew the news after Uncle Diego congratulated her on her pregnancy in a loud enough voice.

Hailee couldn't blame Uncle Diego, as she herself didn't tell him to keep this a secret, but as Ramon said; Hailee had to be even more careful with people who were intent on harming her.

Aileen especially.

"Oh, I forgot to congratulate you on your pregnancy," Aileen said in a tone she forced to sound cheerful, but instead, it made her voice sound like a squeaky tire.

Especially when Aileen saw how Hailee sat quietly in her chair, as if she was the superior of this room which left Aileen herself have to sit in the chair in front of her.

How come the roles switched so suddenly? This little thing really pissed Aileen off. However, she couldn't show it on her face directly.

"Thank you," Hailee replied calmly. She sat down gracefully with one leg folded over the other. "Actually, I came here to give you this invitation."

Hailee then placed the silver invitation on the table, while Aileen made tea for her.

Realizing this, Aileen's irritation grew. Why did she feel like a servant serving drinks to her master?

No, Aileen shouldn't think so. It would only make her look miserable in front of Hailee.

Therefore, with a more decisive step while looking unconcerned, Aileen brought a cup of tea for Hailee and another cup for herself before she sat across from Hailee and looked at the invitation.

"What is this?" she asked with a frown.

"Well, I think there's only one way to find out, and even a five year old knows how," Hailee said disdainfully. Even though she knew it was a mere rhetorical question that didn't need an answer. However, Hailee enjoyed the change in Aileen's expression when she heard her.

Hailee's visit this time to the company wouldn't be boring thanks to Aileen.

"You don't have to be like that with me," Aileen said with clenched teeth, as she took the invitation card from the table.

"Don't worry, this is just the beginning," Hailee said with meaningful eyes.

Could this woman in front of her be anymore shameless? How could she protest just because Hailee treated her like that when what she did to Hailee was beyond logic and morals.

Seeing this, Hailee felt sure that her decision not to immediately send Aileen and Georgeto prison for killing her parents was the right move. Because after all, they would never regret it.

Now that Hailee knew Aileen was actually George's biological daughter, she could clearly see the resemblance between the two.

Maybe not a physical resemblance, but the greed and shamelessness of the two of them were really worth a huge round of applause.

"Tordoff's company anniversary?" Aileen muttered when she finished reading the invitation. Then, her attention turned to Hailee once again. "What do you mean by inviting our company?" she asked.

"'Our'?" Hailee repeated the word in a scornful tone, then laughed softly as if mocking Aileen, making her facial expression turn even more furious. Hailee really liked this. "You should say 'your company', not 'our', because you are not part of the Tatum family."

Hailee said that on purpose to provoke Aileen and she could see that this woman's hatred becoming more evident from the look in her eyes.

Aileen is a Tatum. But she couldn't say that aloud. So of course, what Hailee said made her very angry.

"Respect me as your older sister," Aileen said with tightly clenched jaws.

"My older sister?" Hailee laughed again, this time louder than before. "As far as I know, I'm an only child. I don't remember mother giving birth to another child before me."

Aileen gripped the invitation card in her hand tightly, trying to keep her emotions under control.

"After all, you were only here acting as a substitute leader before I took over this company, so it wouldn't be good to decline an invitation from the original owner." Hailee hurled words full of provocation at Aileen again.

Meanwhile, Aileen could only stare at Hailee sharply. If looks could kill, then Aileen would gladly try it on Hailee.

"Anyway," Hailee waved her hand, as if to shake off the heated topic. No, now was not the time. There were many opportunities for Hailee to mock Aileen… "... you will attend the event."

Hailee's last sentence sounded like a command in Aileen's ears.

"I'm busy," she said bluntly. "I will ask someone else to attend it for me."

"You can't do that," Hailee said. "I have invited all investors and important people in this company. I think they've got the invitation by now."

Hearing Hailee's statement, made Aileen narrow her eyes. Something was not right here. "You invited them by sending them an invitation card? But for me, you delivered it yourself?" Aileen laughed grimly. She crossed her arms over her chest, a defensive gesture. "Should I be flattered that you came personally?"

Hailee then stood up, so she could look at Aileen more cynically from her current position. "You will feel even more flattered for the things I have in mind for you."

In that instant, Aileen's ugly smile finally faded as it got replaced by a look full of vigilance. "What would you do?" she asked before standing up, so Hailee couldn't look at her in such condemning way.

"Why are you so impatient? Don't worry, this is a surprise for you from me." Hailee then took her bag which was on the table. "You just wait for it."

After saying that, Hailee walked out of the office with carefree steps and a small smile on her lips. She was satisfied to see Aileen's final expression.

"Wait," Aileen shouted when Hailee was about to open the door, which made her stop. "I'll walk you."

What else was this? There was no way Aileen was so kind that she was willing to see Hailee off personally…
