It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 187: YOU MAKE ME WORRY

Hailee then hit Lexus on the arm for making such nosy comments and returned to focus her attention on the cellphone screen in her hand, waiting for Ramon to pick up the call while she tried not to pay attention to the laugh of her brother- in- law who was sitting right next to her.

Hailee then glanced at the watch that curled up nicely on her wrist, indicating that the time was quite late for the meeting that had taken place in the morning to be still dragged out.

Ramon should have finished with all his meetings, since that was what he said the last time they communicated, but Hailee couldn't tell for sure either, as the last meeting didn't leave a good impression either.

"Ramon didn't pick up his cell phone," Hailee said, as the smile slowly disappeared from her lips. "Is he still in the meeting? But, from what he said, the meeting should have ended half an hour ago. "She then turned to Lexus, who shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Ramon often extends the meeting when he feels that a discussion is still not find the conclusion yet," Lexus replied casually, because he knew very well the character and working style of his brother.

"Yeah… I thought so too," Hailee said with a bit of disappointment. Sighing, she put her cellphone back into her bag and then returned to focus on the two models who were demonstrating the last pieces of the night.

They both looked so magnificent and spectacular, but Hailee's mind was elsewhere. Somehow,she felt something was disturbing.

Especially when she saw an empty chair, two spots, to her left. It was reserved for Giana Smith, but it turned out that the woman did not attend this fashion show at all.

Yes, of course Giana Smith would also get a VVIP seat, just like Hailee and Lexus. But, what kind of reason could stop that snake woman from attending this famous fashion show?

Hailee didn't like her thoughts starting to wander everywhere. Could it be that she had now turned into an overthinker?

If so, then all of it was Giana's fault! She thought irritably.

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

"Why don't you pick up the call from your wife?" Giana asked in a flat tone, although it couldn't be helped that the hope was growing inside her, which could be seen in the look in her eyes, when Ramon decided not to answer Hailee's phone call.

Didn't that mean that Ramon preferred to talk to her alone in the car, rather than telling Hailee the truth that he was currently with Giana? This was a progress too, right?

Ramon then turned his attention from the screen of his cell phone, which had now darkened because the phone call from Hailee had ended, to Giana, who was waiting for him to answer the rhetorical question.

Without changing his facial expression, he put the cell phone into his coat pocket and said, "Now tell me, what you know about what happened two years ago." Ramon used a business tone when he spoke to Giana. As if he was presuming this conversation was no different to the business deal he had just snagged.

And of course, this left Giana all displeased. She wasn't used to the cold tone Ramon had been using when talking to her recently since he lost his memories, but she knew not to bring up this matter because their situation was not just common.

"You mean, how was our relationship two years ago?" Giana asked in the same tone as Ramon's.

"Tell me what happened two years ago," Ramon ignored the meaning behind Giana's question and instead shifted the conversation directly to the point he wanted to aim at. "How did all this happen?"

Ramon had his own reasons for not picking up the call from Hailee. There were things that must be prioritized first, but that didn't mean that right now he preferred to listen to Giana rather than let his wife know that he was with another woman.

Ramon would call Hailee after his conversation with Giana, but for now he wanted to feed his curiosity regarding the story before the accident happened.

Maybe, this was thanks to the drugs he was taking, or maybe the therapies he had to go through, but it seemed like Ramon was starting to pick up some snippets of himself and Giana.

However, they were only in bits and pieces of a situation Ramon had no recollection of having experienced.

However, on the other hand, Ramon being alone in the car with Giana, made him realize that this was not the first time, which was not something that came as a surprise, considering that they had been in a relationship for two years.

Perhaps, if Ramon tried harder, he would regain his lost memories…

"Don't you feel something when you look at me like this? Because of you…" Giana was about to protest, but Ramon cut her off with a firm tone.

"Just answer my question or you can get out from the car," interrupted Ramon. "How did all this start?"

Giana sighed. She already knew that this was what Ramon was going to ask her, but somehow it was very hard for her to tell how it all started, especially with the fact that only she could remember all of it...

"We met for the first time at a fundraiser held by the Smith family. A charity event, just like the charity auction the other day," Giana started and the images of their first meeting flooded into her mind, making her heart flutter even harder.

"What happened then?" Ramon narrowed his eyes.

Giana shrugged her shoulders. "You came to me when I was alone on the balcony, after the fundraiser was over and the other guests were enjoying the meal."

"I came to you?" Ramon asked inquiringly, causing Giana to lower her head slightly and correct her sentence.

"Actually, it can't be said that you approached me, because at that time, you thought there was no one on the balcony, so you went there for some fresh air I think. But, apparently I was there too," Giana then added. "You and I are a lot like Ramon. We don't like crowds," she said softly and with feeling, hoping Ramon felt the same.

"People who don't like crowds aren't just you and me," Ramon said calmly, but his words showed that he didn't want to have such a ridiculous resemblance to Giana.

Hearing Ramon's answer, Giana could only bite her lips. That's how Ramon forgot herself? Wasn't there the slightest feeling in his heart that still remembered Giana? Because, after all, two years was not a short time and so many things happened during those two years.

Things that couldn't be forgotten just like that...

Still feeling awkward, Giana tried to ignore Ramon's statement and continued her story. "You intended to leave, but then I held you back."

The streetlights alongwith the buildings started to lit up, brightening up the sky outside that had been looking very dark.

While outside, Danny was staring at the car, the space in which Ramon and Giana were talking alone, praying that neither Hailee nor Lexus would call him to ask for Ramon, because he didn't know what to answer in this situation. One wrong word, then the aftermath would be very hard and complicated.

"At first, we didn't talk about significant things. In fact, it could be said that we didn't greet each other," Giana chuckled at the memory of the incident, drunk in her own memories at that time.

However, on the other hand, Ramon did not find anything that made him feel sentimental, or reminisce about the incident, so he just kept quiet and waited for the continuation of Giana's story.

"Until finally I started the conversation," Giana smiled, looking at Ramon gently. "You only answered modestly, like this time; cold and less talkative. And I am the one who broke the ice with my questions."

Ramon then glanced at his watch briefly, but this small gesture certainly did not escape Giana's attention.

"If you intend to reveal every detail of the conversation at that time, then I have to say that I don't have time for that." Ramon glanced at his watch again, but this time, the gesture was an implicit message saying that Giana was just wasting his time. "Can you get to the point?"

The way Ramon said this was beyond Giana's expectations. Couldn't Ramon try to feel the chemistry that Giana was trying to build between the two of them, so that Ramon could feel what she was feeling right now? Wouldn't that help this man remember their past?

"Very well," Giana finally said after considering all the possibilities. She didn't want to force Ramon to follow her current mood, nor could she sulk to this man like she always did in the past. "After the meeting that night, we met again at several parties and events."

Ramon was silent in response to that, he waited until Giana gave the answer he wanted to hear; when did their affair start and how?

"After a few meetings, you started to be more warm to me and even greeted me first," Giana said, her eyes wandering into the night sky from behind the car window. "You started to open up and told me about yourself, although not much."

Giana remembered very well every detail of the conversation that they had at that time, but unfortunately, the current Ramon wouldn't wish to hear it.

"What have I told you?" Ramon frowned. It didn't seem like he could talk freely to other people.
