"Can't you just knock on the door?" Hailee asked in a low voice. She looked at Ramon with an innocent gaze and made her face look expressionless, as if she wasn't in any big trouble.
Well, at least Hailee was trying to make things look less terrible than it appeared, even though Ramon couldn't think so.
Ramon switched off the electric saw in his hand and gave it to a man beside him. Hailee didn't have time to look at who the man was, nor care who he was. This time, she really was in deep shit.
Who would have thought that a trivial problem like Hailee refusing Ramon's wish, landed her in a situation like this instead.
"What did you say just now?" Ramon asked in a calm voice, but Hailee knew very well, that this man was not as calm as he seemed. It could easily be seen from the glint in his eyes that looked so furious.
"Mm," Hailee muttered. "I said, why don't you just knock on the door ..." then she waved her hand towards the door which was out of shape. "You broke my bedroom door."
Ramon walked over to Hailee and the girl backed off, trying to get away from this man. "I've knocked a few times earlier, but you don't seem to hear it," replied Ramon.
"Oh," Hailee bit her lip nervously and stopped stepping back when her back hit the cupboard behind her and Ramon caught her in his arms. "Shouldn't we go?" Hailee asked with an innocent face.
"So, now you are okay to go with me?" asked Ramon in the same tone.
"Of course I agree," Hailee replied hastily. She tried to avoid looking at Ramon, but the man was right in front of her face and her racing heart made it difficult for Hailee to think straight.
Even her own thoughts betrayed her when a mischievous thought flashed through her mind. Hailee really wanted to beat herself up for being able to think like that in a situation like this!
"Shall we go now?" Hailee asked, she glanced at Ramon for two seconds, before finally turning her attention elsewhere. "If we postpone it any further, we will be late."
"Hm," Ramon nodded in agreement and released his confinement on Hailee and walked back two steps to give the girl some room to move.
"But, I have to change my clothes first, there's no way I can meet important people in your company wearing clothes like this, right?" Hailee asked, trying to buy time.
But, of course Ramon had studied Hailee pretty well and had started reading the tricks this girl could come up with.
"Okay, you can change your clothes," said Ramon indifferently, he then walked to the door, but before that he turned around and looked at Hailee. "Ten minutes," he said. "If you don't finish in ten minutes, then I'll take you away in whatever clothes you were wearing at that time."
It turned out that Ramon didn't plan to go out of Hailee's room, but was sitting on the single sofa that Hailee had been sitting on to enjoy Ramon's efforts in opening the door to her room earlier.
"Ten minutes?" Hailee frowned in displeasure, especially when she saw Ramon sitting in her room instead. "At least get out of my room, so I can get changed."
"You can change your clothes in the bathroom," replied Ramon who nodded towards another door in the room. "Nine minutes to go," he said.
Hailee was just wasting her time if she continued to argue with this man, because there was no chance that she would win the dispute.
Then with heavy steps that she deliberately stomped, she walked towards her closet and took a white dress and walked into the bathroom.
"There's no need to lock the door," said Ramon when Hailee walked past him. "Because if you don't hear me knocking on the door again, then I'll have to come inside the same way as before," he said casually, who then took his cell phone to check some incoming emails while waiting for Hailee to finish.
==============
Hailee was wearing a white dress that reached her knees and was decorated with a matching colored obi, but the embossed embroidery looked pretty with a few colorful small stones around the obi, making Hailee look elegant and sweet.
These clothes were the clothes that Lis bought for her yesterday and luckily, Lis bought everything in colors that were easy to mix and match, so Hailee didn't have any trouble finding shoes that match the dress she was wearing, as well as some of the accessories that Lis had prepared for her.
With just one time shopping together, Hailee could feel Lis' desire to have a daughter and dress her up, because instead of Hailee, Lis was much more excited to look through all the shops and get the items that she thought would be suitable for Hailee, no matter how much money she had to spend. .
"Get in," Ramon said as Hailee hesitated to step forward and get into the car.
The girl glanced at the man next to her, and even though she was wearing high heels, Ramon was still too tall to keep up.
"Come in, or should I carry you?" asked Ramon with a serious face. If he wouldn't even think twice about sawing the door of her room, then carrying Hailee into the car wouldn't be a big problem for him, would it be?
Only this time, Hailee's irritation was greater than her desire to challenge Ramon and make him carry her.
So she gruntly got into the car and sat there staring straight ahead, while Ramon closed the door slowly and then got into the other side of the car not long after.
At least this man still knew how to behave like a gentleman.
Then, all the way back to the office, Ramon was preoccupied with his gadgets, monitoring and completing his pending business of having to pick up Hailee and spending a lot of time dragging her out of the room.
Since Ramon didn't speak to her, Hailee didn't say anything too. freewebnovel. com
But, after thirty minutes of silence, Hailee started to feel bored. "Can you turn on some music? Or the radio?" Hailee asked politely.
However, before the middle-aged chauffeur who was escorting them, could do what Hailee had asked, Ramon refused first.
"No, I don't like noise," he said without averting his gaze.
"But I'm bored, it's too quiet," Hailee grumbled.
"I need silence to concentrate," replied Ramon.
However, fifteen minutes later, Hailee started singing while humming lightly and tapping her feet.
"Shut up," warned Ramon. "Do not be noisy."
"If even this is not allowed, then what? I feel like I'm meditating," Hailee replied in an irritated tone.
