"How about we get married?" asked Dillon after their intimate moment.

Dillon felt that nothing could stop the two of them from being together. The public was aware of their relationship and this time gave a positive response because the bad news about Aidan's affair from the beginning of his marriage to Giana, was revealed in the media.

Even most of the netizens understood why Giana was with Dillon, because all this time this man had always been there for her and was always seen together while accompanying her in all her activities.

And regarding Giana's parents…

They've both lost their power over Giana since her father fell ill and things were getting worse because Giana took over the company in a way they didn't approve of.

Granted, Giana was the sole heir to the Dawson family, but this woman made it seem as if the takeover of power was nothing different from a usurpation.

Dillon had no idea what Giana had said to her father, but since then Mr. Dawson didn't get better.

And about Mrs. Dawson, Giana did not allow her mother to leave the Dawson residence and restricted the visits of those who wished to see her.

Giana's actions tended to be too extreme, but she always said that this was only temporary until this tense situation passed and became calmer.

"Marriage?" Giana glanced at Dillon over her bare shoulders, while the man brushed away the woman's long hair and kissed her shoulder gently. Giana liked how Dillon treated her, but this was not the man she wanted. "You know that my divorce suit against Aidan is still ongoing, right?"

Dillon chuckled. "Yeah, I know… I mean not now, but after all your business with Aidan is done."

Giana did not immediately answer the request. She did envision a wedding, but certainly not with Dillon. Unfortunately, it was impossible for her to say that directly.

Giana still needed Dillon by her side…

"I need some time to think about that…" Giana then turned her body and let Dillon hug her from behind while whispering sweet nothings that could conquer any man's heart…

While Giana imagined Dillon as another man…

Life is really confusing and so complicated when it comes to feelings, because we tend to ignore people's genuine concern for us and expect attention from someone who doesn't even care if we're okay or not...

Ramon agreed to take Hailee with him tonight to where he would meet Ian after a lengthy argument involving a lot of flirting and promises from his wife, with a note; Hailee should wait in the car and listen to the two of them talking on the cell phone.

Where Ramon would be connected with Hailee through a call and let her listen to his conversation with Ian. Hailee agreed with the idea.

"Where are you two going?" Lexus just got down from his car staring at the two people with furrowed brows. As usual, he wanted to have dinner with Hailee and Ramon. However, seeing that both of them being well-dressed, the second son of the Tordoff family scowled. "You're going without me?"

"You're not in the same package with us," said Hailee sarcastically. She waved her hand at Lexus, as if her brother-in-law was an outsider. "You'd better find a girlfriend for yourself, so that there will be other people you can disturb."

Lexus snorted when he heard that. "I can get a girlfriend easily if I want to," he said proudly, puffing out his chest.

"Yes, yes..." Hailee replied in a lazy tone, she smiled at Ramon for opening the car door for her and got inside after giving her husband a quick kiss on the cheek, making Lexus' expression even worse.

"Hey, where are you guys going?" Lexus asked Ramon, after his brother closed the car door for Hailee.

"Ian's problem," said Ramon curtly. He then circled the car and sat beside Hailee.

Lexus didn't need a long explanation of what Ramon meant, because he knew the problem.

Hailee opened her car window then told Lexus who was still standing frozen beside the car. "If you want to eat, I've made your favorite butter-fried chicken, ask Martha to warm it up for you."

Hearing Hailee's words, the smile on Lexus' lips widened, he then approached the car window and poked his head in, making Hailee have to back away from it.

"I know that you really care about me. I think you like me more than Ramon," said Lexus, wiggling his eyebrows idly.

While Hailee gave an amazed expression at the statement. "I even like that butter-fried chicken more than you."

Hailee's reply was simply ignored. "What if she stays at home?" Lexus nodded toward Hailee. "At least someone can accompany me to eat."

But, in response, Ramon leaned in and reached out his hand to shut the window pane by Hailee's side, forcing his talkative brother away.

"Hey, is that how you treat your sweet little brother?" cried Lexus, complaining.

On the other hand, Hailee laughed happily at what Ramon did and the car drove through the night, leaving the Lexus alone behind.

Of course Lexus asked Hailee to stay home because he was worried that the conversation between Ramon and Ian would hurt her, because after all the street fighter was her best friend.

But, Ramon knew Hailee better and he knew that his wife wasn't that weak.

Therefore, all Lexus could do now was enjoy Hailee's butter fried chicken and let Ramon take care of all these complicated matters.

"Didn't you two promise to meet at that building?" Hailee pointed to the tall building across from the park where Ramon asked Garry to stop the car. "Why did you stop the car so far from your meeting place?"

Hailee looked at Ramon with furrowed brows, she felt something was wrong, but didn't know what was wrong.

Meanwhile, Ramon just smiled and kissed Hailee's forehead gently, rubbing his wife's back to soothe her.

"No problem, you'll still be able to hear me and Ian talking through the cell phone." Ramon then opened the car door on his side, while another car was waiting for him. "I'll be right back," Ramon said, then closed the car door to move to another car with David, his head bodyguard.

Hailee watched Ramon until the man got into the car and drove away. There was an unsettling feeling when she saw her husband walk away, especially when Hailee realized that Ramon had a lot of bodyguards with him.

If it was just to talk to Ian, he wouldn't need to bring these many bodyguards with him, would he?
