It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!-Chapter 37 - NEW PHONE
Ramon then glanced at the duration of the conversation and it showed that Hailee and this man named Ian had been in a conversation for at least three hours and twenty minutes.
No wonder, Hailee was still sleeping when Ramon left and didn't bother him by asking for their marriage to be postponed.
It turned out that the girl had been talking to a man all night.
Having feelings for Hailee or not, but having your future wife do this, of course, made Ramon a little upset.
"Who is this man?" Ramon asked in a cold tone, while listening to the contents of their conversation.
"Ian Schamber," replied Danny at once, who already had the answer to Ramon's anticipated question. "He is a fighter in Arena, city R. His nickname is; the executioner. "
"Arena?" Ramon turned his head and looked at Danny.
"Yes, it turns out he is one of the fighters from the Sandgun 45 there," said Danny.
Hearing that answer, Ramon narrowed his eyes. 'How did Hailee get to know people from Sandgun 45? Does Hailee know about this? How well does the girl know the executioner?'
"Find out more about this man," ordered Ramon. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
Then he spent the next four hours listening to the conversation between Hailee and Ian, without missing a sentence.

Hailee woke up when the rays of the sun were so intense and her body felt sweaty from being rolled up in a warm blanket.
But, as soon as Hailee looked up at the clock, her eyes immediately widened in surprise.
Hurriedly, she sat down clutching her throbbing head and stared incredulously at the hands of the clock indicating that it was very late in the day.
How could she possibly wake up at this hour?!
But, if you think about it, it was possible considering Hailee spent the last morning looking for news about Roland Dimatrio, then continued with a shopping spree with Lis and she spent the night chatting with Ian.
Not only lack of sleep, but Hailee also felt excruciating exhaustion, both physically and psychologically.
Moreover, coupled with what Ian told her last night. How could that man add to the burdens on her mind while Hailee's purpose to call him was to find a solution.
Ugh!
And only then did Hailee realize that today she too had to go out with Lexus. Last night Ramon had informed her of this.
"I don't want to go anywhere ..." grumbled Hailee who then threw her body back onto the bed and tried to close her eyes again.
After all, Ramon also didn't tell her when Lexus would be coming. And, if at this point Lexus still hadn't arrived, then maybe he won't come, right? Hailee thought, wishing it was true.
And, then from the corner of her eye, Hailee saw something on the small table beside her bed. A rectangular box in white.
Hailee was sure the box wasn't there last night and it wasn't something Lis bought for her yesterday either.
Curiously yet reluctantly, a sleepy Hailee stretched out her hand to grab the box and immediately recognized what it was.
It was a cellphone from a famous brand, the latest released version which was still limitedly sold in the market.
Hailee was shocked.
Not because it was the newest phone, but because of the fact that there was a new phone beside her bed that made her heart started beating wildly.
"This ... It's just a coincidence, right?" Hailee gasped as she stared horrified at the object in her hand and bit her lip anxiously.
But, it felt very odd to think it was just a coincidence. Because just last night she called Ian and promised him that she would give him her number when she got a cell phone. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m
Then, when she woke up this morning, Hailee found a new cell phone beside her bed. Ugh!
It wouldn't be possible for Ramon to find out that Hailee had sneaked out to make a call from the reading room last night, right?
Again Ian's words rang back in Hailee's ears. He said that Hailee should watch out for Ramon, because that man was difficult to predict.
And indeed, it was very difficult for Hailee to understand that man.
After checking the cellphone, Hailee also found a new sim card, it took about thirty minutes for Hailee to programme it so that her cellphone could finally be used, and she did this all with her mind wandering somewhere.
After finishing that, Hailee immediately took a shower and changed clothes, and thought of waiting for Lexus to arrive while having lunch in the dining room.
The atmosphere at the dining table was so quiet as it could be said that the only inhabitants of this house were herself and Ramon currently, so if that man left, then it was certain that only Hailee was in the house.
While the servants would only come when Hailee needed anything and scarce themselves when not asked for, it seemed like they had been ordered not to be in the same room as the owner of the house.
Knowing Ramon's aloof nature, Hailee could understand why he wanted the house to be silent.
Hailee couldn't understand how this man had lived like this for so many years.
"Did Lexus come to this house?" Hailee asked one of the servants as she served a plate of lunch for Hailee, completing it with a fruit juice.
"Mr. Lexus?" the young maid asked in return with a slightly frowned forehead. "Yes, two hours ago. Mr. Lexus came to get some documents."
"Then, did he ask for me?" Hailee asked, two hours ago it was certain that she was still fast asleep.
"No miss," the helper shook her head. "Mr. Lexus seems in a hurry to get a document and afterward, he left in a hurry again," she said.
"Hha? Strange…" Hailee muttered. Didn't Ramon say last night that Lexus was going to take her out? It was not that Hailee wanted to go with him, but… "I thought Lexus was here to take me out…" Hailee said to herself.
"Bring you out?" the maid was also confused. "Looks like that is impossible."
Hailee raised her head and looked at the servant, asking for an explanation. "Why?"
"Because Mr. Lexus looks like he has a business trip for the next two days," she replied.
"How do you know?" Hailee became even more confused.
"Because I heard it from the driver who is going to drive Mr. Lexus to the airport," the helper answered carefully.
Right after the maid completed her words, the new cell phone that Hailee had put on her side rang, signaling an incoming call with a number she didn't recognize.
However, Hailee could guess who the first caller was.
"Ramon?" called Hailee directly.
"You're awake at last," came the deep voice of Ramon Tordoff, who seemed to be mocking her.
However, Hailee ignored that. "You said Lexus was going to bring me out for shopping."
"Oh, that. Looks like I forgot to say that he canceled it," he replied lightly.
Ugh.
