It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 252: THE FACT (3)

"So? How about Aileen's condition now? Are she and her baby okay?" Hailee asked with concern.

Theodore who heard the question gritted his teeth hard. Not because he was angry with Hailee, but because he had been so stupid until he fell into Aileen's trap.

He should have insisted on having Aileen checked for pregnancy and didn't just believe her blindly. Isn't all the evidence clear that that woman is so manipulative? But, again Theodore ignored all the signs he came across and had been led by his nose.

"Theodore?" Hailee called his name while staring lazily at her manicured fingernails. She was waiting for another call, well Hailee was still hoping that Ian would call her, therefore, if Theodore was just wasting her time by being silent like this, Hailee was better off just hanging up the phone.

"Oh, sorry…" Theodore said hastily. He then shook his head to shake off the distracting thoughts and returned to focus on Hailee. "I've already called a team of doctors to check on Aileen at home and called her home without informing her of this, so I'm sure she won't have any reason to dodge."

Hailee raised her eyebrows and smiled happily. It was true what Ramon said about letting the Gevano family handle Aileen's issue, so Hailee didn't have to bother wasting time or getting her hands dirty.

"Good," Hailee said curtly. Then silence fell over them both.

If Hailee was impatient with what else Theodore was going to say, then the man was actually nervous because he was talking to Hailee right now. He wanted to say a lot of things, but didn't know where to start.

"So why did you call me?" Hailee finally broke the silence between the two of them by asking the question.

"Oh," Theodore stuttered. He felt stupid, just like a teenager who was secretly calling the girl he liked. "I just wanted to tell you about this."

Hailee fell silent, surprised at the unexpected answer, but a second later her laughter could be heard. "You don't need to report that to me Theodore. I don't need to hear it."

Hailee could not understand what made Theodore assume that she wanted to know what was going on in his domestic life with Aileen. Had she given the wrong impression?

"I thought you wanted to know," Theodore replied quietly, then he added. "Even though you are with Ramon, but you still think about me, I just want to thank you for that."

Wait. Wait. Wait…

Hailee blinked her eyes as her brain tried to process the information she had just received; So Theodore thought she sent the video because Hailee wanted to save that bastard from Aileen?

What kind of misunderstanding was this?

"Listen Theodore, whatever you think now about the reason I gave the video to you was a huge mistake, so stop thinking that way." Hailee shook her head. She couldn't understand how she could be engaged to a man who only thought about himself and acted like the whole world revolved around him. "Aileen is my target, not you. I want to see her at her worst for what she has done to my family. So throw away those stupid thoughts of yours that depict I still have feelings for you."

"Hailee…" Theodore was about to say something, but Hailee didn't want to hear him at all.

"Oh, and one more thing. Stop calling me." After spitting out all those long sentences, Hailee immediately hung up, not wanting Theodore to misunderstand any further.

She thought of Theodore? Seriously? Was Hailee so free that she had time to think about another man besides Ramon and her plans for revenge?

Whoops! A man like that really didn't deserve to be on this earth. He should have just flown into the clouds with that overconfidence. Hailee grumbled.

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

Theodore couldn't help but stare at his darkened phone screen after Hailee hung up the phone and let out a long sigh.

In the past, he didn't like Hailee's arrogant attitude and preferred the gentle nature of Aileen who was also good at stringing sentences, saying only the words he wanted to hear.

However, now that things had come to this, listening to Hailee's grunts, didn't seem too bad. What Theodore had done deserved more than just a scolding.

Hailee…

Theodore's thoughts about Hailee were cut short when someone knocked on his door and informed him that Aileen had arrived and had just gotten out of the car.

"Bring her straight to this room," Theodore said furiously. The woman could no longer escape.

In front of him, a laptop was sitting nicely, showing the video of Hailee and Aileen, which was recorded on the emergency stairs.

When you think about it, it was a pity that this marriage had to end less than a month after their wedding, not because Theodore still wanted to be with Aileen, but because his good name would be tarnished later when he filed for divorce…

"Why did you suddenly call me home?" Aileen went straight into Theodore's study and sat on the chair opposite him. "What do you want to talk about that can't wait?"

The frown on Aileen's forehead showed that she had absolutely no idea what would greet her in a moment.

"Before I start, I want you to tell me the truth about your sprained leg," Theodore said slowly, making sure Aileen heard every word that came out of his lips. "What really happened?"

Aileen had a bad feeling about that question, but she chose to stick with the original story she told Theodore as well as Rebecca.

"I lost my footing and rolled down the steps of this house, that's all." Aileen folded her arms across her chest, a defensive gesture.

"Then can you explain what this is?" While saying that, Theodore turned his laptop so that the screen would be facing Aileen before playing the video.

On the other hand, seeing what was displayed, Aileen's face immediately turned pale.
